Agent refused to apply possible military discount. Drop off was unclear and unattended location.Reviewed Jun 11 2025

I had a long wait at the check in to pick up the car. Their internet was down. This was not their fault, and the lady worked very hard to move the check in line. Once I got my car I could tell it had been smoked in before me. It also had fairly high mileage at 51,000 miles. It was a good value and experience. I would certainly use Dollar Rental Car again.Reviewed Apr 26 2025

After prepaying for the vehicle, when I arrived at the counter they didn't have any vehicle for me. I had to wait from 9:30 PM to midnight to finally receive an electric vehicle from Hertz (not Dollar which I rented from), and it was a very small vehicle. With two toddlers' car seats, a double stroller, and luggage, this Chevy Bolt was not the vehicle to do the job. I had paid for a full size vehicle. Needless to say, I had to call a friend for help as this vehicle was useless to us. When I contact them the next day they wouldn't answer the phone after several attempts.Reviewed Feb 21 2025

I didn't even get a car. Upon landing in CLT I saw I had received information so I could check -in. Ad we taxied I tried but kept getting notices of car unavailable, please upgrade. After 3 tries and the price raising every try I walked over to Alamo and got an adequate car for 3 dollars more. It was a joke to even think I had a car reservedReviewed Dec 1 2024

It felt like an attempted bait and switch with their "Manager's Special" to force me into an expensive upgrade. And, none of the online check-in process was useful as I had to do it all again at the counter.Reviewed Oct 19 2024

It was horrible. We missed a connection in Charlotte after sitting on the taxiway for 2.5 hours waiting for a gate. We tried to get a rental car to get to our final destination. They accepted a reservation. We left the secured area of the airport to pick up the car. Just kidding, no cars. Went back to the terminal and got in line for TSA. After > hour, TSA shut down with no warning. We were stranded and had to sleep on the floor in the security corral. Rude and abusive treatment by airport staff, including management, made a bad situation much worse. In the future, we will avoid Dollar and Charlotte if at all humanly possible.Reviewed Jul 28 2024
