First of all my sister had rented the car and I was the driver unable to pick up vehicle and Tony was no help and very rude. 2nd the next rear tire kept going low and we had to stop frequently to our air in the tire. We called a lost the tire issue and was told we needed to take it to Firestone and have the tire fixed or have them change the spare. There was no sense in Alamo sending someone out for just a tire. Well if that tire had blown out you would of been doing more than just a tire. I don’t feel it’s my job to fix the tire on a rental care but then again pick was terrible so why would I think custom service would be any better. Do not rent from Alamo ever

Once I arrived home from picking up the rented vehicle, my wife and I started checking the car, cleaning, checking tire pressure. The back passenger tire had a screw in it and the tire pressure was low. My wife and I went to Discount Tire, had the tire repaired so our vacation should be with out tire issues. Had zero issues with the tires/vehicle while on vacation. Upon return, I mentioned the repair of the tire to fellow at enterprise and he helped me out with the rental price because of the tire. All in all, had a great experience.

Website allowed out of towners, who were stranded due to personal car issues to book a same day reservation for in town pick up with out of town drop off and once at the pick up location was told can’t do same day one ways. If it’s policy the website should know that to! Never using this company again, but I’m sure they don’t care considering they’re already rich. Disrespectfully a customer you’ll never get rich off. This caused use a lot of stress and inconvenience!!! Never referring this rental company to anyone.

The nashville airport is confusing to get in and out of. I forgot to put gas in the car and traffic was so backed up at the airport that I could not go get gas once I was in line at the airport. There was no number to call at the rental desk to let them know I was going to be 10 minutes late. I ended up paying $10 a gallon. Left me with a bad taste overall.

We reserved a Ford Focus for 3 people driving 2 days and we were immediately told there was no such bar available. We were told there were tiny Chevy Parks available but the woman offered us a Ford Escape as an 'upgrade' and we had to pay more for this. She gave us her discount which lowered the cost, but this is such a poor service where you reserve a car and then it's just not available. Why have a reserve service if its not guaranteed? The woman was lovely but this isn't up to standard.

They did not have a car for us on the day we reserved - I had paid the deposit too. We had to go to a different location the next day - which actually was more convenient- the 1st car we got had expired plates - which we didn’t know until we got pulled over by police!! had to drive about 30 miles out of our way to exchange cars. There was no sense of urgency to help us with a new car.

Pick up was easy. Dollar, Hertz and one other vendor were co-located and each was able to assist with the other's customers. Therefore, my wait was minimal. My only issue was trying to figure out what I needed to do to return before they opened at the airport. As it turned out the informaiton was on the envelope and on signs at the airport. Still, I didn't realize that at the time so I tried to call without success. It turned out to be no problem, just left the keys in the car.

The agent when I picked up was helpful and explained any questions I had. Car was clean and what I expected when I booked. My only comment is that towards the end of my trip, the tire pressure alert came on, I stopped at a service station and filled all the tires, they were about 10-15lbs lower than it should have been for each one. And the tires, I noticed were very worn, minimal tread with some shedding and chunks missing. That’s a huge safety issue, and I’ll definitely make sure to look at the tires at pick up next time.

The pickup location is very obscure at the Nashville airport. You have to go to the counter inside the airport unlike all the other rental companies. It was very hard to find. Payless is grouped with Avis but you can not check in at the Avis counter with the other rentals. There are no signs for Payless. We found it after waiting in line for a while only to be told we have to go back inside the airport. Then the person at the counter was very rude and did not seem to want to be there. When we returned the car at the Atlanta airport, we were confused as well because we did not fully realize that Payless would be grouped with Avis everywhere.

The pickup was a pain. There were no signs telling me where to find the Payless counter. The car shakes at highway speeds (I assume wheel balancing is needed) and 2 of the tires were at 22 PSI, SO I had to put air in them once I got it
