The rental location closed at midday but we weren’t informed of this when booking. As a result we couldn’t pick up our car. The Budget location at Sacramento airport wouldn’t honour our booking either se we had to cancel and use another company.

I'm very pleased with the service and the ease of getting the paperwork done.
Horrible. Showed up and they didn’t have a car for me. Then they charged me a no show fee. Had to call multiple times to get the fee refunded

Horrible. Bait and switch. Needed to change drop off location due to flight change and they were 100% unwilling to work with me whatsoever. And tried to charge me an additional $500 to change the location by 15 miles. Ridiculous. Never. Never. Never. Again.

After I book reservation. And pay for insurance then I get there and they won't rent me the car
The customer service at the pickup was not helpful. Told me that if I delivered the car a day before I would be refunded a day and was not like that. I only received a refund of $16. The website didn't show at the top that the car was electric. So I ended up changing the reservation because they didn't show how to charge it. I ended up paying more money. It was a disaster. Very disappointing. The worst service ever.

Car, SUV, was fine and addressed our needs. We were disappointed in the lack of flexibility at customer service. We asked for a 3-4 hour extension to drop off so we didn't have to drive all day and into the night. They said any extension is charged at a full 24 hour rate even 5 minutes. Representative said he had no discretion on charge. We ended up just making drop off deadline but didn't have time to stop for gas. They charged $9.90 per gallon! Outrageous! I live in Tennessee and pay between $2.50 and $3.00 per gallon. If all rental companies do this, I will never rent for pleasure. I often rent in Europe and they are much more flexible in their rules and policies. I am an Avis Preferred member, but I did not feel preferred at Avis.
