Smelled like 200 lbs of Marijuana
Shuttle provided fast and convenient service both to and from airport. My arrival flight, and subsequent pickup, was delayed for hours, but it didn't impact my car rental at all. Drop off procedure was quick and efficient and staff was friendly through the whole process.
I flew on 7/19/24 - the day of the global IT outage. My flight was delayed 4 times, then cancelled, then we re-booked a flight at a different airport, and then we missed that plane and had to re-book again at the last minute. We had to fly to a different airport which would require a 2.75 hour drive to our destination. Fortunately, we arrived around 9:30 pm so we thought it wouldn't be too bad. Even given all of those inconveniences, do you know what the WORST part of our day was? Dealing with the staff at the Hertz desk. Manipulation, lies, and unnecessary delays. I was traveling with a child, and trying to ensure her safety while she laid down on a couch along the wall, waiting for me while I waited and waited and waited in line. BUT there were only a couple of people in the line! The wait was because staff spent an ENORMOUS amount of time with each customer, trying to deceive them and upsell them. When it was finally my turn, the staff did a bait-and-switch with me. Then he told me I couldn't upgrade. Then he told me I could only upgrade if I paid for the reserved car as well. Then he lied to me about my car insurance. Then he priced out a car for $85/day for 3 days and presented me with a written bill for $600.00. I asked for a copy of it for my records and he refused. My 7 year old granddaughter repeatedly walked over to me, sleepy-eyed and asked, 'what is taking SO LONG Grammy?' The staff made me leave the line, go and make another reservation and only then would he allow me to book a car rental. We finally left there AFTER 11:00 PM - to begin our 2.75 hour drive to our destination. It was an extraordinary abuse of a customer, and I will NEVER use Hertz again. I was not able to ever cancel the original reservation: K9242146653. The staff told me reservations cannot be cancelled and it didn't matter because you only get charged when you pick up the car. He said you could make 10 reservations and you wouldn't get charged for them if you don't pick up the car. Would you please ensure that this is correct as they were very deceitful and I can't trust anything they said. Please make sure that I am only being charged for the actual car I rented. It was a 2024 Hyundai Kona, license TN 736BMPZ. The new reservation number was #K92430569D0. Thank you.
Nice
The car is ok. It was very quick to get the car. Only the tank did appear to be full.
Customer service at the RDU terminal was excellent. The car was clean and it felt like an upgrade from what I booked, as it was quite new (low mileage) and was very comfortable. I needed to pick it up early, which was accommodated quite graciously. I had a 900 mile drive in this vehicle with no issues.
