The woman at the counter told us she not rent us the car because your system was down. We had to use another company and were panicked, and had to pay a lot more money. We’re not happy at allReviewed Oct 8 2024

They did not have a car available when I arrived for my scheduled pick up. They did not attempt to help resolve the matter in any way. They treated me as if I was inconveniencing them by asking to speak with a manager, told me that the manager was not available, and refused to give me a contact number. Extremely rude and unprofessional. I will not be using Budget ever again.Reviewed Aug 11 2024
