The employee was not at the desk. The doors were wide open. When she finally showed up, while checking me out she takes a personal call. When I finally check the car out I went & look at it & it was dirty. Inside & out. She said she would take money off if I get it washed. When I drop it off on Tuesday they were closed. Also I drop it off two days early, she said when I do return it early I will get those days money back. So far I have not seen that money taken off.

Terrible. Broken system. Waited 3 hours for car. Then my license “wouldn’t work” so I had to use my wife’s license to rent the car. I’ve rented with budget two weeks ago with no issues. I have a perfect driving record. Will not use budget ever again. Terrible.

I was over charged and quoted incorrectly and no one has contacted me or tried to help with the extra charges. I will never extend a rental and will go with another agency. The customer service has no manager or supervisors available to speak to. I was spoken to in a manner that seemed like I was lying. This is very upsetting and hope you make sure you get a printed confirmation of your rental agreement if you do extend your rental.

When I tried to check in using when prompted by an a Budget email, I kept getting an error saying that the rate was invalid. When I called Budget about this issue, I wasted several hours of time on the phone, but no one that I talked to could verify my rate or pre-check me in. One rep said that they thought that due to demand, that I wouldn't be able to get the car at the rate I had booked at anymore. Eventually someone just said to see if the rate I was booked at would be able to be honored at pickup time. It turns out it was (I different rate wasn't even discussed), but I had a lot of problems with the car that they gave me for my one-way rental from DTW to MKE. It turned out that 3 of the tires on my rental were bald on the inside which I didn't notice/check for when I picked up my rental car. One blew on the freeway and the tire was shredded on the inside. It was difficult to deal with Budget about this issue. Eventually I replaced the one tire that had blown and then drove the car on non-freeways to the nearest Budget rental to swap out my rental. I'm still waiting to see if Budget will reimbursement the money to replace the expensive low profile tire that I had to replace myself.

The car was not cleaned upon pick up , on the interior or exterior . There were crumbs and dirt e everywhere . We found a week old take out box of moldy chicken Alfredo under the set when it started to smell . Customer service at the counter was very poor upon pick up . The employees were very unprofessional and were hold other conversations about their plans outside Off work while trying to get me on my way . None of the bill was explained - usually they are very thorough and go over every detail with you , they did not hear . They did not tell me where the car was they told me to just go outside and hit the panic button to find it . Drop off was equally as unpleasant .
Was excellent. The staff was phenomenal and very helpful.

Friendliest staff at pick up-really made a difference after a long journey overseas. We appreciate the smiles and extra help finding car seats that fit our kids. Thank you for the excellent service-we’ll be using you again for our next trip back Stateside.
Had to change out a flat and the spare was in good condition. More importantly, it was so easy to get a hold of a real human being on the phone to explain my situation and tell me where to go to exchange for another car.

The premium suv I reserved wasn’t so premium. A ton of air sound would come in from the windshield once I hit 45mph as if the weather strip was not properly replaced. The breaks were also very bad the vehicle should have been serviced before being rented out.

Easy pick up at airport and rental process took less than 10 minutes. Everyone we met along the way was very nice. Car was excellent and very clean. Highly recommend.
Everything went very smoothly. It would be great if Detroit airport had a covered area for the cars. It was raining and I had to run to my car which is kind of a drag when you have luggage, etc.

The agent in Detroit was as good as I have ever had. Friendly, efficient, accommodating.
I did not experienced a helpful service. There was no compromise with credit cards. No possibility to use debit option either. Staff wasn’t helpful at all. More about getting customers out of the way instead of helping find a solution. Ended stuck at the airport for hours.

The office closed at 8 p. Missed the pick up but they were good at letting me pick up the car the next day without issues. Very good personnel.
Everything was excellent except for one thing; the amount charged on my credit card was way higher than my rental agreement and the final amount upon return. The National car rental location was Detroit, Mi Airport and returned to Brownsville,Tx airport. Something happened in the transition and hopefully National can correct the problem! I have a dispute reference number and I am waiting for the call from National at this time.

We had a delay because the vehicle we reserved wasn’t on site and ready at the appointed time. We had to wait a little over an hour past our pick up time. They were as accommodating as they could be considering the circumstances and they adjusted my rental cost fairly to compensate me for the inconvenience. Outside of that, the experience was perfect and the vehicle was great. I would definitely rent again.

I was refused a rental car because the ID reader was not up to date and did not recognize my driver’s license. It is a basic enhanced real ID from MN. Very disappointed and frustrated. I also waited at least 20 minutes for the manager to come “verify” that they couldn’t rent me a car. They didn’t even try to help me find a solution. What a waste of time. Shout out to Enterprise for finding me a rental!

It couldn't be easier to rent from National or any other rental car at Traverse City airport. Friendly staff, they provided the exact car I reserved on Kayak. Much cheaper than renting directly from the rental car website!
Turned my car in Yesterday. They said my bill would come in an email. STILL STANDING BY WAITING ON THE EMAIL.

Van was brought up, left for 6 miles, then low tire light came on, went back, swapped stuff to another van. Sienna was learning curve. Had an emergency, at home. returned car to DTW lot used 6 of the 9 days. Got no receipt from accepting agent. Got home to my wife in hospital and found a receipt from Thrifty charging $198 for AP conc fee which I told them was already in the previous contract. Called 3 times, Thrifty refused to reverse. Even when i said they had 3 days rental revenue to use the van. Didn't want credit for the days, just not to pay twice for airport fee.

The vehicle is clean but not well-maintained. The suspension was very stiff and felt like it did not exist. The door light alarm was always on, even I closed all the doors firmly several times. And I had to walk across the parking lot to find the car in the rain by myself.
