2.0 Poor
our plane was delayed and car place closed at 11pm we arrived at 11:27. They only volunteered that we come pick up the car the next mornin! really. Luckily I had sent them a message telling them about delay before pick up time so we could cancel without penalty. We have received refund.

2.0 Poor
They refused to honor the contract you drew up. Literally said their computer was incapable of honoring it. Jacked the price up hundreds of dollars. I told them I would have to complain to the Better Business Bureau and they said okay. It's apparently a technical issue. AND they did the same thing to the 2 customers in front of me. By hundreds of dollars. More to come via the BBB.

2.0 Poor
Terrible. They rented me a car with a defective right rear tire and the vehicle did not have a spare. When I contacted Budget, they did not have another vehicle available within a reasonable distance. I had to wait until 11 pm for a tow truck to arrive to recover their vehicle and I still have not received a refund.
A
2.0 Poor
An hour or two before I was supposed to pick up my rental, someone from Budget called to let me know he didn’t have any vehicles available. I ended up renting from enterprise at the airport.

2.0 Poor
The Dublin Airport Budget staff would not accept the insurance that we purchased on Kayak, so we had to abandon our rental from Budget after two attempts. I also emailed them with a letter of coverage from our credit card company, asking if they would accept that, and they never replied.
T
4.0 Mediocre
When I got to the counter, I was told that my car insurance that I purchased through kayak would not be acceptable for their car. I would’ve liked to know that before or not been offered additional insurance online.

Jason worked hard to make sure his customers are well-treated and satisfied.
A
8.0 Very Good
Pricy for a smallish suv. Agent in San Antonio told me I wouldn’t be charged for returning the car later than expected because it was less than one day rental but my receipt showed that Budget charged me a $20 late fee. I wasn’t happy about that.
A
2.0 Poor
There were 40 people in line and one person working. It was crazy! Then when I got my car it smelled like cheech and Chong had it before me.. cigarettes and pot were almost unbearable. Later when we were taking our luggage out, I found a knife in the trunk and threw it out. Car was fine but not a very good experience.
