They included a fuel charge when dropping the vehicle off after I filled it up… I had to argue with them about the extra fee in order for them to waive the fee.

Very slow service in Buffalo. Charges not explained well. Extra charge put on at drop off that had no explanation. Contacted customer service and they have been very helpful. They responded quickly and rectified things.

There was a very long and lengthy line up at the counter for Avis pick up, when we got the vehicle, it was still super dirty, stains and spills all over console, dash and steering wheel, windows very so greasy it was hard to see out of at night, we had to spend 2 hours to clean the car..... not very impressed.

Didn’t have vehicle ready for us. Needed car to drive three hours away to catch flight. Finally Got vehicle and went home to get kids and saw they didn’t install the car seats we rented like originally stated so had to go all the way back to get them. Ended up late for flight to where they almost didn’t let us board and didn’t get to fill tank due to the time because of them so charging me once again to fill the tank. Horrible experience

I reserved an intermediate size SUV for a trip to Richmond VA to visit a sick family member. Upon arrival I was told I reserved an electric car, which I did not. The reservation was booked through Kayak and because I did not have the card that I allegedly made the res with through Kayak, I had to call the 800 number and “change” the rez and card on file! I was basically forced to take the electric car offered to me even though I did not reserve it nor did I want it. My trip to Virginia took over 17 hours because of stopping to charge the car!! I exchanged the car in Richmond so I did not have to endure the same problem on the way back home! The employees in Richmond were much nicer and went out of their way to help me! The Buffalo representatives, not so much!

Pick up bleu cheese chunks. My wife is losing her mind, still, three days later. She’s basically a crazy person, but she thinks robots would be way better at serving the needs of the frequent flyer. An hour wait seems excessive (Wife: “Felt like traversing the 3rd-to-last layer of Hell”). Further, if there’s a delay in securing the vehicle, the full rental agreement length should be honored. With an extra hour on the return, my wife could’ve had her frickin’ Buffalo wings from Duff’s. Peace. PS. Pick-up dude was great. And the whole experience was good overall. My wife really is obsessing over the standing-in-line part, but it wasn’t terrible. I can’t remember the last time renting a car was simple/smooth, so this is totally in line with what I’ve come to expect.

Awful. They gave me an EV that took two days to charge. No warning. Makes no sense for a 3 day rental car. Totally useless

The entire experience could have been better. There is zero support for customers who have cancelled flights. 0 out of 10 and I will recommend others to never use this company.

The drop off was fine. But the pick up was not good at all. When I first got in line, there were two employees working the counter. They were making fun of how long it was taking and laughing at the situation not very urgent or a desire to help customers very much. It took a very long time to get to the counter and then to get in my rental car. I was lucky to get a car however everybody behind me was told that the car rental place was closing, and that they could not help anybody else. Just very poor customer service in general.

Although Kayak allowed me to book it, evidently Dollar does not respect reservations made less than 24 hours in advance. We Ubered across the Canadian border for $300 just to be turned away by Dollar and everyone else. Worst travel experience ever.

I had to returnthe first car becasue of a slow leak in the back tire. I called the number provided on the contract and was provided with another car. This car did not have a USB port for charging my phone- very inconvient. Staff members were very helpful. The car was clean. It was a littel pricey though.

Didn’t even get a car. They are telling me because of covid they have no car. Can we stop using covid as an excuse please? Thank you. I Uber to the airport and wasted money and time. Stood in a line for 45 mins only to be told I needed a 24 hour reservation because they have a car shortage! Great. No one told me because kayak is a third party website. Lesson learned. Don’t book via third parties
