Drop off at St. Pete airport. Charge was higher than told at pick up in Georgia. Dropping off vehicle signs pointed me to budget. There was no customer service there although all of the other rental agencies had one. I wandered around looking for budgets. I went into the airport to budget. I told employees it was higher then I was quoted on paper and verbally. All I was told was call.

I was quoted a price on Kayak for one day and Budget charged me for 2 days. We did not have the vehicle for more than 24 hours and paid almost 3 times the price that was quoted on Kayak.

They did not have my reserved vehicle available, or any suitable substitute. They made no effort to assist me or correct their mistake, and made no apology. They truly did not seem to care that I now had no way to transport six people 500 miles the following day. Will never, ever use or recommend Avis again. This was my experience both with the local branch where I was to pick up my car and with customer service. I spent over 3 hours on the phone or on hold with them and they were unwilling to offer any practical solutions.

They didn’t take any of my 5 debit or credit cards when I got there. I had ubered there from the airport and was basically stuck in the area! The lady was not helpful whatsoever. Real snobby acting. Every other car rental place in town took my cards but them. Said it had to be one of the few credit cards they offered to accept or nothing at all. Felt like my money wasn’t good there. There was nothing on the website that mentioned this.. she said even though I paid online that she still needed a copy of my credit card (that they couldn’t take) and like I said was no help.. rushed to give me a refund and get me out of there. I rent cars regularly and have from Avis in different locations, and NEVER have I experienced such an inconvenience and poor customer service in my life. Don’t go to this location, downtown Athens. Just go with enterprise up the road, they were a lot better!!!
