I was unable to pick up the car because I didn’t have a credit card. I traveled to Albany for nothing after experiencing a transportation emergency. Your website reservation gave me a whole lot of grief, expense and inconvenience. The experience was 100% terrible and I want my money back.

The car was good, it was a bit loud in the car, I’m not used to driving vehicles that don’t keep the outside noise outside, I had to turn on the radio to reduce the noise from the vehicle. It sounded like you could hear the noise in the back of the car somewhat like the car had an open window or something? Besides that it was easy to drive and had good leg room.

They could have had a car for me. When I got to the counter they had no cars to rent even though I had reserved online. First time I’ve had this problem. Thankfully one of the other agencies had a car for me.

I highly recommend not using budget. Not only did we have a terrible experience with a car not being available after reserving at seven months in advanced when I made a complaint, I heard nothing back. They basically took a vacation that was meant to be once in a lifetime it made it extremely stressful. We ended up going with enterprise and they were fantastic. The lack of response from budget shows that they do not care about the people they are servicing.

I reserved a large sedan for a trip cross country. When I arrived my only option was a truck. Obviously not happy with it and the additional fuel cost that I would occur during the trip. I kindly asked for a discount and they wouldn’t offer me one, not even 10%. And was told if they charged me for a truck the cost would be double, so be happy
