Terrible experience. They cancelled on me and several other customers (at least) despite booking months in advance. Didn't even give an email or voicemail notice! Found out at the time of the rental pick up. They didn't provide any solutions or reimbursements, only half hearted apologies. They also didn't reimburse the Uber wasted on heading over to the Hertz rental office! Such terrible customer service. They could only repeat that they overbooked months out and so didn't have enough cars to give to their customers... Would never recommend

Cons:

I booked and got a confirmation number, what car I was getting (or something similar if they were out), a time for pick up, etc. When I get there they say they have no cars for me. Why allow me to book and say they'll have a car for me when they didn't. I stopped searching for a car because I was told I would have one. If they simple didn't allow me to book or told me there was no available, I would have help looking. It's a poor system and the people helping me just told me a script when it was their fault for booking me.

Pros:

The staff at both ends was great. Friendly, pleasant, very helpful. We had a bit of a problem locating Enterprise at the Dallas Love Airport because we hadn't driven far enough for car rental return.

Cons:

We had no complaints. It was a good experience.

KAYAK

Pros:

They told me they didn't have a car for me when I showed up to pick it up at 2:15pm on Sunday. Told me they may not be able to get me a car by the time they closed (3pm on Sunday), because they ran out of cars as a result of people not returning them when they were supposed to.. They told me to call another location in the city to see if they had one. I asked them to do this for me, and they wouldn't. When I did, the other city location did not have cars to rent either. There were 10 other people experiencing the same problem. At 3pm, they told us all to get into one of their vans and that they would transport us 30 minutes away to another location that had cars. When I got there, they provided me with a Hyundai Veloster, which is a compact car even though my reservation had it confirmed with an intermediate car. Moreover, this car was very dangerous to drive as a result of its extremely limited visibility in the rear and the sides. Not only did I had to drive my car 30 minutes out of the way as a result of this inconvenience, but I also used my gas to do so. Never had an experience like this before and I have been renting cars for more than 35 years. Very unprofessional.

Pros:

Nothing. Even though your confirmation told me to pick up and return to the Presidential address on the airport grounds, I was told I would have to go to a different off site Avis location on highway 71. There were no free shuttles so I would have to pay $40 for a shuttle one way.

Cons:

I had to pay $100 more to get a car from the airport Avis location and they had very little to choose from at that late date. You sent a confirmation with the wrong location address and I would have had to pay $40 to be shuttled there. I WILL NEVER USE YOUR COMPANY AGAIN!

Within the first 15 miles I had to stop to fill up the tire that was low and had to do it two more times on the trip. Was surprised that the tires were not checked before loaning the car out. This was quite a nuisance

Reserved car weeks in advance. Received confirmation of reservation. Received second confirmation the day of the rental. Arrived at rental desk to be told that AVIS had overbooked and there are zero cars available. While we waited for an Uber, I overheard several people receive the same bad news. The desk agent said she had told over 100 people that day "no car is available". It was my assumption that AVIS has the ability to know how many cars they own and how many have been reserved. For the AVIS management to treat their customers and employees this way is completely unacceptable. Their lack of concern for customers caused us transportation problems for the entire weekend. Can you imagine the poor employee that had to take abuse from irate customers for 8-hours. I hope she can find a better job soon. My company and I will avoid AVIS at all cost and I will make sure that everyone who asks hears this story. It's time that business leaders are held responsible for their decisions and stop using Covid as an excuse for everything. AVIS needs to do better or have new leadership. Mr. Ferraro and his team should be embarrassed...but probably are not.

Pros:

Easy and quick pick-up and drop-off process. Woman at the desk was very helpful. Not located far from downtown Austin and much less expensive than renting from AUS. Recommend

Cons:

- Confusing to navigate to the location. The address is for the entire shopping mall so it's hard to find the first time. - Not much car selection but the cars there are decent.

Pros:

Pretty good price to pick up in one city and drop off in another. The agent who I picked the car up from was friendly and accommodating when I came back to tell him the gas tank was not full.

Cons:

The gas tank was less than half full when I picked up the car, and the car smelled like smoke when it had a no smoking sign on the window.

6.4 Okay

Apr 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

I ended up with a nice car that suited my needs for the trip. There was some damage to the car but it was documented. Drop off at the airport was much easier than I expected and the agent there knew what he was doing. I also found snack crumbs in the driver's side door when I got in but it was otherwise clean and comfy.

Cons:

They didn't have the car I reserved at the location, and all that was left was a smaller car that wouldn't fit my needs. After discussing, the representative told me he could give me one other car, a nicer SUV, because someone had a reservation for it but hadn't shown up at their time. It was a bit more than what I ordered (and I already thought the prices were pretty ridiculous) but I needed a car! And it was not as much as it would be to order this SUV from the beginning. I sure hope I didn't put someone else without a car but was told it was sort of "first come first serve" at this location. That doesn't make much sense with reserving a car but stuck between a rock and a hard place, I went for it and it worked for me.

Mar 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

The van was very roomy and had lots more storage for bags than it indicated on the website. We drove to Colorado with six passengers and it was ideal... a seventh passenger would have been a tight fit! The van got great gas mileage (above 25 mpg). And there were no issues with pick up or drop off.

Cons:

Budget asks that you sign an extra driver onto the rental for an additional $65. This is, in my estimation, a completely predatory charge. Since we were covered by our own insurance, which covered any additional drivers, we did not have to give them any money for an extra driver. When we called and asked about this the agent told us that it was needed because in the event that we were pulled over, the car would be impounded by the police if the driver was not on the budget policy. This was not true! FAKE NEWS! In fact, we got pulled over and the driver was not on the policy and the police officer only asked to see the policy and the drivers license of the person who rented the car. Don't get scammed by Budget. If you have your own insurance then don't pay for an extra driver.

KAYAK

Pros:

Once I figured out how to turn the car on/off, I enjoyed driving it and there were no problems.

Cons:

No cars were available when I arrived, despite having made reservations and specified my arrival time. I had to wait approximately 45 minutes. The car was clean on the inside, but pretty grimy on the outside. I don't think it was washed very thoroughly. There was no one on site to explain to me how to work the car - it had a keyless ignition, which I had never seen before. My cousin explained to me how to turn it on, but I had to drive around the garage looking for someone to explain to me how to turn it off!
