Pros:

I reserved my car like everyone else did, show up to pick it up and was ready for my vacation I had long for waiting and planned only to be rejected because I didn’t have a major credit card. I was totally humiliated and embarrassed in front of my daughter because it was her birthday weekend and I had let her down. My money is no good or what? I don’t have a Wells Fargo bank account or any other Big Bank account of that kind. I do own a credit card but it seems like your system doesn’t take it. I have well over $10,000 in my bank account. Isn’t Visa a major credit card. My credit card has a Visa logo on it and it works everywhere I make purchases. If the system didn’t take my credit card then why did you guys charge me $22 to reserve it? This was Avis, I’m probably never going back there again nor am I recommending them.

Cons:

The staff could of made calls to headquarters or something like that to help out and resolve my situation. They could of also reimbursed me the money I was charged because I didn’t even get to see the car I had reserved. I could of gotten a heads up about the credit card issue and I would of made up back up plans at least.

Pros:

Brandon was nice, but the rest were a bit rude. They didn't try to help me with my flat tire, which I had to replace myself. I had to pay out of pocket and they would not pay me for it. They waived my rental fees, but not for the tire replacement. I'm not happy with them. I will never rent from them

Cons:

For the employees to take my situation a bit more seriously.

We made a reservation for 1pm and they let us pick up at 11am

Cons:

The manager did not give me my cooy of the rental contract, which made me feel like he could have done something fradulent. He pressured me to buy rental insurance by threatening me with scare tactics. The manager did not complete a vehicle inspection, which shows any issues/dents/dings of the car. After I returned the car, I was afraid they would bill me for something I did not do. I will never return to this Hertz and do not recommend it to anyone.

Pros:

good on gas.

Cons:

Thrifty is crooked -- no business competing head to head with the majors. FALSE ADVERTISING: exact same rate minus $1 vs competitors, BUT Thrifty DOES NOT include LIABILITY like all the others (I had to pay $12day), AND Thrifty has a mileage cap -- NEITHER of which was discoverable at time of booking, no thanks KAYAK!!! My $60 2-day rental wound up costing me $127, plus $25 in lyfts going the extra distance to the branch location. I am a sucker -- don't you be too! Hertz may seem $10 or even $20 more for comparable, but it's still a deal if you're going to drive more than 100 miles per day and don't have your own car insurance. To top it all off, the crooked guy who handled the return tried to gouge me for an extra 5c per overage mile -- he pointed to excess miles at 40c/mi and i said waitaminute, it's 35. he said, "no that's what he told you..." except i hadn't said he'd told me, he was just trying to get away with it. then he said "ok, i'll put it back..." again, admitting it had been 35c until he tried to gouge me on the spot. by far the most bare-bones rental i've ever gotten, at twice the usual pice -- not even power windows or locks!!! Absolutely crooked -- BEWARE.
