Pros: The lines were really long with people complaining and not moving. The Payless personnel were in the same space as Budget and Avis and it was hard to tell the difference in who was working what. Eventually all personnel worked on the same long Payless line. Then the price of our car quadrupled.

Pros: Did not disclose mandatory insurance that had to be purchased making the final rate $775 Euro. Much higher that what was quoted.
Cons: Rude

Cons: The only thing that would be better is to have a map available in the car that shows more detail. The one we received wasn’t useful. Our cell phones drop service overseas so getting to our hotel and a phone sales location was difficult. Really not their responsibility, but nice nevertheless.

Pros: Nothing
Cons: Was told my total at booking was $120. After all the required ad ons and fees at pick up I paid over $500. Absolutely absurd and when I need a car for a week there’s nothing that can be done about it. Will never book with budget or Payless or this site again.

Car not full of gas, long lines, poor service
Cons: Car had not been checked since last driver, was down a quarter tank of fuel, long lines while workers stood around. Won't use them again.

Pros: Did not like the fact that a $5k authorization was required if liability is waived but agent was very clear in explaining it and finding a reasonable price for full coverage.

Need better insurance info
Pros: Good simple car, really easy return process
Cons: The insurance requirements were not explained well at all for what was required for an Ireland rental. The prefacing was so poor that I'm still trying to decide if they sold me gold-plated insurance using scare tactics that exploited my lack of local knowledge. Dunno. Insurance per day was about the same as the advertised price of the rental, so the car ended up costing rental times number of days +1. Needless to say, this was surprising. Figure out how insurance works before you book.

Bait and switch
Cons: We booked the car for roughly $10/per day. Upon arrival we were told the car requires $45/day in additional insurance. I've rented dozens of cars in different countries and never had this big of an issue. The expected cost of $70 ballooned to $332, which crushed our budget for visiting Ireland. Worst rental experience.
