pick up and drop off locations were not clearly stated that they were NOT at the airports. It was super inconvenient

Customer service wasn’t horrible, but there were no cars and no reservation I made could be honored. You should not allow someone to book a reservation if you do not have the availability. I had to be in Dallas that same day and I wasn’t made aware that they couldn’t honor the rental until they opened up the next morning.

Very bad experience picking up. Waited an hour and a half to get to the counter. Car smelled like someone smoked in it and there were bird feces all over it. The car drove fine and was good enough for my long driving trip.

I had a shock when I turned up to the airport and my car hire that was listed on the website as £250 turned into a bill of almost £600! Insurance costs just under £80 for each day and then a petrol price of $9.90 per gallon is just outrageous! Had no choice as needed a car and other providers sold out as it was collection time. Misleading

I had a reservation weeks in advance. When I got off my plane at 10:30pm, they had no cars left!!! I was stranded. Terrible company. This is the 2nd time I’ve had a reservation with budget not honored. I will never use budget again.

When I arrived at the pickup counter at the off-airport site, and declined the Budget insurance, the staff told me I had to show my proof of insurance (i.e., my insurance card or a copy of my personal car insurance policy). I don't travel with those documents. I have rented a car hundreds of times in my life, I ALWAYS decline rental agency insurance because my policy covers rental cars, and I have NEVER been asked to show proof of insurance. I was not advised beforehand of this requirement. The agent at the rental counter was EXTREMELY unhelpful in having me problem solve this issue.

I’ve been online and did ExpressCheck in. When I arrived, I had to wait in line, which was fine, except that there was no privacy for discussions about money, and the person in front of me are very upsetting experience. I did finally reached the counter and ported that I had already checked in through Xpress and paid, the staff person told me that I had not paid that I had simply entered the information. He then charged me. I now have two charges on my credit card of two fees from two separate agreements. I also see that the receipt I got was for one price, $77 I don’t my credit card I still see the deposit charge of $200. All toll I have a charge of over $500 for a car that was supposed to cost me $77 for 24 hour period. I fully expect to get the deposits back because the car was in good shape and the attendant at the New Orleans airport and drop off, the nicest person in the whole process, told me everything was fine. So yes got a good experience.
Avis overbooked and did not have the passenger van I rented months head of time for a school group causing extreme difficulty to our group.

The employee came out covered in sweat, gunk all over his shirt, pants falling off. He wasnt the most pleasant person to deal with and asked me for a copy of my insurance. NEVER in all my history of renting cars have I ever experienced this. I travel for work 2.5 weeks out of every month getting rental cars all over the global and have never had this. I don't have a copy of my declaration page on hand with me so I was forced to pay an extra $31 a DAY. Unbelievable but I had no choice since I needed the car asap

Car was not ready at pickup , we had no option but to take a car that was in my opinion not comparable to a ford edge. But as avis was closing in the next hour we were forced to take a car less than expected. The car had several issues. One of the tires half-flattened daily and all tires were worn out, hardly any profile. Also issues with the door locks. First time in my life a very bad experience with Avis. Tried to change the car but for these kind of issues Avis cannot be reached.
If I could give Dollar a minus star I would. Spent 1 hr and 45 minutes in a line to have the 1 lady working tell me they sold out of the cars I reserved over 1 week ago & even gave them a pick up time. Never offered an upgrade or alternative. I came in town for a funeral that I never made it to due to being in line almost 2 hours! Worst company and worst customer service. NEVER WILL I USE DOLLAR AGAIN. I feel like they owe me a plane ticket for making me miss my aunt's funeral.

The car had been smoked inside prior to our rental. At pick up the dollar and thrifty locations were closed. This created a very extended line at pick up for Hertz. Likely staffing issues

Don't know about any of the above. Arrived at MSY to find Dollar with a 5 row line to the counter. Waited 30 min with only moving up 1 row. Which meant I had another 2 hr wait. Noted that all the other rental agencies had 0-2 person line. I went to FB to inform DOLLAR of the situation. The chat person said they would speak to the MSY office, but I didn't expect any improvement. I canceled the rental and rented from Alamo. In and out in 10 min.

This was awful, I get there and the car they gave me had a slew of water stains, smelled like smoke and had cigarette burns in the seats. I had to go back to the counter and they took an hour to give me another car. This car was missing body parts and bumper was loose. No-one looked at the car with me and claimed that I damaged the car when I returned it. I will NEVER use KAYAK of DOLLAR car rental service again.

I had a reservation for rental car at 10:00 am. There were 30 people in line and no cars to give them. As they processed each person - they were told to step aside and wait for a car. I was going to have to wait for hours. Ridiculous and unprofessional.
Flight arrived late, but a National staff person was still at their desk, despite it being after their normal hours. The pickup and return were very efficient and quick, though they can have somewhat of a long line at busy times--so plan accordingly.

I drove all the way to Lafayette to pick up my rental and the employee at the desk wouldn’t allow me to pick up the SUV. Apparently a major CC was needed, bank card not accepted for SUV. However, this information was not listed online or in the fine print of the rental when I booked. I offered to provide a major CC via phone since I did not bring one with me, the employee said they had to swipe it b/c they use an “old swiper”…which you can still manually type in card info. She also spoke about running a major CC to verify my associated flight, I said I didn’t book a flight, she replied, “exactly, that’s why I need a major CC.” Nothing made any sense. I can understand rules but that employee was awful! I asked if they could pull other rental locations away from the airport to see if they had available van or suv and she refused. She stated that a major CC would be needed for a van too. I drove 30 miles back to my home and booked directly with Enterprise and then drove all the way back to Lafayette. The entire process delayed my family’s vacation by 6 hours and it turns out I did not need a major CC to rent a van. National/Enterprise/Alamo - your employee at the Lafayette airport on the morning of September 1, 2022 is what gives companies a bad reputation. She was not helpful, contradicted herself a few times, rude and lazy. I won’t be renting from this location in the future, it wasn’t worth the 4 hour hassle. I also ended paying an additional $400, as my booking was not guaranteed when I picked up from a new location. An $800 rental became a $1200 rental.
We had scheduled a pick up at midnight when our flight was supposed to arrive. Unfortunately, it ended up arriving two hours later. When we went to the front counter, there was a sign that said they were closed and to go to the third floor of the rental garage where there would be an attendant to help us. When we got to the third floor of the rental garage, however, there was a group of people waiting and no Enterprise attendant. Instead, there was a sign saying someone would be there by 9 am. So a bunch of people were waiting in a freezing cold parking garage with no one to give them their cars. Maybe this was just the Baton Rouge office, but to be safe I will avoid enterprise in the future. We were lucky to get an Uber at 2 am.
