My trip was supposed to cost $1214.33. Budget receipt showed a charge of $1278.83. My amex charge to Budget was 1478.83. Budget agent said $200.00 would be credited to my Amex Card. That leaves $68.50 that Budget overcharged me.

It was a good rental. The only problem we had was after flight delay and we landed in Key West the Budget rental booth was closed! We had to go to the Hertz booth to rent a car to get us to our house.
At our initial pickup in Key West, FL we were given a very nice Mazda. Unfortunately we later ran over a screw and could no longer keep the tire inflated. We had to change cars in Jacksonville, FL, but were not offered similar choices. The car we accepted, a Toyota, had less power, less comfort, and only one intermittent wiper speed, which was really a problem with precipitation that varied tremendously from place to place and even minute to minute. We later discovered that the Toyota had no windshield wiper fluid, that someone had wiped the inside of the windshield with a rag (so we couldn't completely clean it with fluid anyway), and it's Maintenance Needed alert came on. We decided to trade cars again in Philadelphia, PA, but were only offered a Dodge Charger which would likely have had much worse gas mileage and was too big for easy parking. But the local agency couldn't find its keys! We convinced an employee to fill our wiper fluid and elected not to change from the Toyota after all. (We also asked him to clean the inside of the windshield, but that wasn't done!) A couple of days later the Philadelphia agency called us, apparently still so dumbfounded by the missing key that they didn't even realize we hadn't taken the Dodge off their lot. Finally, even though we told the agent in Key West we wanted toll coverage, she apparently didn't set it up. The agency in Philadelphia discovered this by which time we had already gone thru several tolls. That agency allegedly corrected the matter, but we won't know for sure if that's true until all the billing is settled and we see that our tolls are all covered by our agreement. Overall all these experiences left a poor taste in our mouth.
Very easy pick up. Drop off at different airport very easy also.

Easy pick up. Car had a damaged bumper when I picked it up, but it was documented. When dropping it off at the end point, they questioned the bumper multiple times and made it seem like it never should have been on the road.
After I paid my rental and presented to the front desk on Budget , they stated no cars available and I should cancel with Kayak because they were not responsable of other parties. I had to rent with enterprise directly. The Silver lining was that the cancellation was easy and customer service very pleasant.

Horrendously disinterested staff at Dollar in Key West airport. If the woman working there had been paid to provide a poorer pickup experience I doubt it could have happened. Being friendly, a smile, a hello, hell, just looking up from your phone or saying thank you when handing back a credit card could have made a difference.
The car was dirty. It had no fuel when we picked it up. No one answered the phone, the counter phone or the toll free customer service number Worst travel experience of my life. I will never do business with this sorry excuse of business again.

Key West had few cars because of recent storms. A relatively valid excuse. Your staff was not at all helpful seeking alternate solutions. Eventually after about two hours we were given an adequate vehicle which still smelled of cigarette smoke. The return was easy.

The Hertz location where I was supposed to drop off the car was closed and I didn't know exactly what to do. I wish the employee had told me this when I picked up the car in Key West. There shouldn't be any ambiguity when dealing with a car.
