My agreement was for $405.53, my receipt said $405.53 but my credit card was charged 605.53. This is unacceptable, what is that extra $200? There is no accounting for it in the receipt, I didn't check my credit card charge prior to checking out but instead used my printed receipt to check the charge. The charge hasn't officially cleared yet but I am concerned that this was a bait and switch by Avis.

We showed up and even though they saw our reservation, they screamed at us that our rental car reservation was not being honored because we made it after midnight on a certain day. We said we’d made it the previous day. They said “oh…” and whispered to each other because they clearly didn’t know their own policy. Then when I asked if that meant our reservation would be honored, they started screaming at us again that we were not getting a car and we had to go elsewhere. We were still charged a no-show fee. Literally never again. I would rather crawl to my destination. This was a disgusting experience.

Dear Kayak Thank you for asking for my review. I arrived in good time to pick up my car but was deeply shocked that Dollar expected me to join a very long, densely populated, slow moving line with no hope of picking up my car on time. That was the good news. This story gets worse: conditions in which Dollar was operating at pickup time, violated laws, transgressed regulations and ignored guidelines, Had I joined Dollar's line, I would have stood a better chance of catching Covid, than picking up my car anywhere close to on time. The entire building contained a solid mass of car seeking humanity, that spilled into the inadequate walkways. The air conditioning was overwhelmed. The overcrowding made communication with the understandably engrossed Dollar staff difficult. The building is of a type generally known as pre-fabricated and "temporary." Dollars method of pickup operation is seemingly permanent according to witnesses, regulars and observers in the area, Common sense dictated that I decline to run Dollar's gauntlet.

I am not at all satisfied with the rental experience on your site! I found the experience unprofessional. First of all, the car was very small, not even two carry-on bags in the trunk. It said on the website that the car could be that choice or an equivalent model, but ours was clearly an inferior model. Why is it not possible to choose the model? It is important because there is a risk of theft if you leave the car parked with the suitcases in the back seat. Secondly, at the time of pick up I found myself still having to pay a lot of money for: - insurance (which I had already paid with Allianz suggested by your site. At the time of pick up they told me that it was not enough and they recommended another one) - add a second driver (it was not specified on the site that only one person could drive). I had decided to rent a car because it was a cheaper option, but If I had known I would have travelled by plane. I would have preferred to have the final price when I booked on your site!!!!

The Hertz location had overbooked and was ~40 vehicles short of what they actually needed. This resulted in a wait of over 2 hours for a car. Once finally in a car, the car was only charged ~50%, which was not enough to complete my trip for that day without recharging. Overall, very poor customer service.

I didn't use Thrifty. I used Budget. There was a line of about 10-15 people, almost out the door or the building. When I finally get to the counter I was told they didn't have any cars left, so I would have to wait. After a short period they said they found a car for me. They didn't ask if I wanted insurance. The didn't ask if I wanted to fill the gas, or have them fill for a fee. They didn't ask if I wanted to use the transponder for tolls(which didn't work). They didn't tell me why the charge was $500 instead of $250 for a 2 day rental. I had to ask all those questions. I was given a receipt and told a parking spot number. The vehicle had significant roof damage and some dents/scratches to the front end. They never provided any instructions. They did not tell me I had to open the door on the toll transponder to use it. When I did open it, it didn't work. Budget might as well get rid of all the people they have working and set up a couple kiosks. It would be faster and more informative, as I felt like I was asking all the questions and doing all the work anyway.
