3.6 Poor
Anonymous, Mar 2020
Pros:
Easy pickup.
Cons:
I picked up the car in the dark. Once it was light I could see the disgusting condition of the car. I called to complain and they were sorry but no help. I have pictures if anyone is interested. Avis isn’t interested as they never contacted me after. Poor customer service.
They wouldn't let me get a car they said my credit score was not high enough and that I didn't have a credit card so I want to report this to a manager or someone higher up cause long as you have a debit or credit card and money on your card you should be able to rent a car

I was sent an email to remind me to bring my drivers license. In the email they should have included that they do not accept debit cards and only except credit cards. Because I did not know this I was not able to rent the vehicle and my trip was canceled

Bob, Dec 2020
Cons:
Agent was rude at pick up. I explained that I need to get to a doctors appointment. She insisted on going through every question although I have a profile with Budget. Then said we had to wait because car just came on and needed to be washed. After much discussion she made us sign as is waiver. She said we should have taken an earlier flight. No earlier flight was available and our flight was late. Which she said was not her fault
Cost is extremly high due to circumstances to all rental agencies.

Would have been nice to have the more comfortable vehicle that I had originally reserved but I also get that there aren’t that many rentals out there during these times.

Pros:
Nothing. Corporate said they would credit me 3 days rental car by email. I never received anything.
Cons:
The company needs to follow through with what they say the are going to do. No compensation.
Didn’t even make it an hour down the road and had engine malfunctions. Phone time on hold very lengthy then they couldn’t find a location for the exchange. Not a good experience
4.0 Mediocre
Kahlfani, Oct 2020
Pros:
There wasn’t anything for me to like or dislike because they didn’t have any cars available for me to rent. If anything I would say I was disappointed.
4.8 Mediocre
Anonymous, Jun 2020
Pros:
Pickup and drop off were find. No issues with that nor the staff, other than when I dropped off and explained of some issues, the attendant did not seem too concerned about it.
Cons:
I picked up my car and it was dirty. Garbage in the door, crumbs in the cup holders. Shortly after I picked the car up, the check engine light came on. I attempted to call the 1-800 number on the brochure given to me at pickup. The menu was unable to connect me with a person based on the reason for my call. So....I had a car for 3 days that I didn't really drive because I was unable to get assistance with the issue. When I dropped it off and explained what had happened, the staff just said, "Yeah, you can never really get through on the 800 number." What in the world! If that is the case, then why are customers not given a local number to call? She offered to give me a card to call the manager, but at that point....what was the point in doing that? I told her that I would probably just not use their service in the future. She just said "ok. Sorry for the inconvenience." I was very unimpressed with the service provided to me during my rental with your company.
I reserved a car for 9 am due to lack of employees not ready until noon had a golf time for 1:30 in Grand Rapids with 11 other people you messed it up thanks Dollar
