On one of the busiest holiday weekends (12/27), at one of the busiest airports in the nation (Newarl) there were 12 desks available to help Budget customers, and only one of them was staffed with a human being. The wait to pick up the rental car was 2 hours. Never again, Budget.

I waited in line at the budget counter for 2 hours and 5 minutes just to get my car. There was only one agent at the counter for most of the time, a second agent helped out for a few minutes I missed my appointment due to the unorganized nature of the budget counter and will NEVER RENT FROM BUDGET AGAIN. They do not care about their customers or employees for that matter. Worst rental car experience I’ve ever had

Reserved, specifically, a luxury vehicle to fit four people and two suitcases in the trunk. At arrival, as given the choice of two of the exact same vehicles, Genesis G70s, which are COMPACT sports sedans. Only one of our suitcases fit in the tiny trunk so my sons, ages 17 and 20, had to ride in the back seat with the other suitcase between them. Not comfortable. And not easy to get seat belts buckled, either. The car was very clean and drove well but I don't feel I actually received what I paid for.

Alamo did not allow me to get a car because they won’t take anything but credit card bookings. This should have been made clear at the offset. We spent money, time and resources to get to Newark to be disappointed. Missed our connections afterwards and everything that was planned after had to be cancelled. Super disappointing.

Kayak allowed me to book the rental car and charged me for the insurance right away yet when I arrived in Newark after paying $220 for an Uber from LaGuardia at three in the morning, I was told “I cannot honor that reservation“ since it wasn’t made 24 hours in advance. I was left with no rental car an expensive Uber ride to where I thought there was a car since my reservation was confirmed and was left with no way to get a car. It seems like this process shouldn’t have allowed that to happen.

Newark rental experience was awesome. Unfortunately my rental was supposed to be picked up at Laguardia airport, and the Hertz team from LaGuardia is about the most disrespectful you could have find anywhere in the USA. They forced me to get an Uber and made me go to Newark to pick up the rental over a technicality that I was not responsible for. I spent 3 hours in the whole process, and I experienced the worse level of customer service at an airport’s Hertz rental location there at LaGuardia. Needless to say, I’m not using Hertz car rental services ever again… Sincerely, Tony Zapata.

Your credit card requirements are ridiculous. If you want this stupid system, have a way to check the credit card before the customer shows up. Requiring credit cards that have chips with the person's name who booked the car is strange. It cost us money, time and anxiety. Will ensure to not book work you or Hertz again.
