The Enterprise Airport office in St Louis saved the day! And I am grateful. Listened carefully, got me the car I needed (though it was "smoky" for my drive across Missouri, and overall I was satisfied. Keep the smokers away from your cars!!

Enterprise did not explain the drop off process. Since we were dropping off at 3am, their location was closed. I called their corporate location and they explained to me they their drop off location was at The Parking Spot, and that I needed to drop off the vehicle on the third floor and leave keys in drop box on first floor. There were absolutely zero signs signaling that this was a drop off location for a enterprise, and even on the third floor had zero indication that this is where Enterprise drop offs should be parked. Absolutely terrible customer service and I am lucky I did not miss my flight.

My husband and I traveled via Uber to Enterprise for a car we had reserved online. We never got the car because: We couldn't use a debit card(neither mine nor my husband's even though the cards are from the same bank); I don't drive but my husband has a valid license; when I called a utility company to text me a photo copy of my latest 'paid' gas bill; enterprise rejected it because his name wasn't on it; he does not have utility bills in his name. I offered to pay cash to no avail. Finally when we had exhausted our options, we were stranded and it was too late to try another rental agency so we caught another taxi home. Enterprise discriminates! I am seeking other horror stories about Enterprise too post.

I requested a car from STL Airport but you gave me a car that was at a different and didn't realize until shuttle took me to airport location and they gave me a price almost two what you quoted. The allocation said the location I had to go their by cab as their shuttle would not take me there and also that maybe it would be closed by the I got there. It was very chaotic and stressful.

They didn’t have my rental at all. I never got a car . They said the price was not what they charge so they tried to get me to do the reservation over to pay more money for the car. They didn’t Honor you all’s prices.
I was never able to get my car. I’m hoping I don’t get charged for a car I never picked up. Even though the pick up was supposed to be at the airport, my car was not there. I had to make a whole different reservation.

We were told they weren’t going to have our van. If we hadn’t stopped by the location a couple weeks before, we wouldn’t have found out until the day we were supposed to leave on our trip.

You need to be clearer in you app whether the rental location is at the airport or not. When I rented the car I had know way of quickly knowing that that place I reserved the car was not the airport rental but a second location 40 minutes away.

My car reservation made through Kayak was not recognized by Avis. I had to make a new car reservation at the counter and pay a lot more for it than I would have through Kayak.
Fantastic experience, I was expecting to pickup a Mazda 6, but was upgraded to a Ford Edge. No charge for this. I know I will be using Budget/Avis instead of Enterprise.
