They didn’t have a car available for my reservation so they gave me a giant cargo van

This was a horrible experience. When reserving this car, I was asked what time I would like to pick up the car. I selected 6:00 pm the night before my work trip, thinking only times ACTUALLY available to pick up cars were shown. Imagine my surprise when I pulled up to Hertz only to find the location closed. I happened upon a Hertz employee leaving in his car and flagged him down. When I asked where after hours pick-up was -- he said they didn't have that service and that they were closed for the day. Oh...really? ME: "But -- I have to pick up a car for my work trip tomorrow" HIM: "Oh well, that's okay. We don't have any cars to rent anyway. Try again tomorrow." ME: ::Watches in the distance as he drives off:: This is ridiculous. I understand there is a car shortage, but if you SEE you have reservations on a day where you run out of cars, the reasonable thing to do is call and alert those people so they can plan accordingly. That's the most basic level of customer service I can imagine. I was able to track down a rental car, thankfully. But I won't use Kayak ever again and I most certainly won't use Hertz -- both have proven unreliable.

I arrived and had to wait half hour for the rental car guy to come back (I had called in advance to tell him my arrival time and still wasn’t there) The car ended up being extremely expensive since something went wrong at booking with the drop off location. And he wasn’t being helpful about this. When I finally got the car it smelled so badly of smoke I had to drive with the windows down my whole 4 hour trip. It was less than Ideal and will never rent from them again.

As always, Enterprise is a pleasure to rent from. The office staff at RDU airport absolutely rocks!

Great service from guy at reception. Maybe the rental rare for the GPS was a little high, but that's a minor caveat. Decent car. We'd booked a car that was a little smaller than we thought and a slightly larger one was offered. Excellent service.

Easy pickup & drop-off. Car was pretty clean inside but exterior was not! The very friendly woman volunteered to run it through the car wash but we didn't want to wait. Pleasant/smooth/quick experience all around!! Thank You!!👍👍

Booking through kayak is a waste of time. I went there to get my car they said they didn’t have my reservation I told them I paid for insurance with kayak and they told me that third parties insurances don’t actually work and that I should get a refund from kayak The car was more expensive then listed on kayak by an extra $100 and the car was dirty when they brought it to me. Chips everywhere

Horrible experience at this location. I realize that this is not representative of Budget as a whole but this location was terrible. I would never go there again and I would highly recommend that everyone else stay away as well.

My car reservation was unfulfilled by Budget despite receiving multiple notifications my car was reserved. I went to pick up my car and they didn’t have a car for me or help me find another car in the area. However, I was able to use a different car rental service and Budget awarded me a 3 day voucher for a free rental . All the Budget staff were friendly and professional.

Generally the overall rental experience was really great. Only the price was far too much in my opinion (roughly USD 130.00 per day for 6 days). Apart from that I'd totally recommend it again

I was given a car that was smoked in & had stuff in the truck. I have to go back to get a exchange. That car had maintenance req info. When I contact customer service, I was on hold on for 1 hr & after taking my info the call was cut. Next time, the customer service asked me to go to nearest airport to change cars without checking the availability, When I went there, there was no car & I was rudely told by the agent there that I need to contact customer service. I will never rent from budget again & will not receommed it to any of my friends.

Pickup took way too long. They needed more people, but I guess that's an issue everywhere now. The building was too hot since it was packed with people waiting. The car we got had an issue. It was impossible to get anyone on the phone. I tried the local number, no answer. I tried corporate number, can't get passed the automated system. We wound up driving back. The exchange went very smoothly and the man who helped us (wish I got his name) was very nice. It sure would be nice if there was a hard copy of the manual. Those of us that haven't had a new car in many years don't always know what words to use to 'search' for info on the screen. The return went very quick and smoothly.

1.) The vehicle was very dirty. It had not been cleaned, vacuumed or anything. There were cigarette ashes all over and a cigarette butt on the driver's floor mat. Soda was spilled in the rear cargo area, etc. etc. 2.) There was only 1 employee working at the time of pick-up, so he could not inspect the vehicle with us. I had to take pictures and finally went back inside and insisted that he come outside, which he did. (I do not remember his name, but he was very good. In fact, he was the only good experience we had with this rental.) 3.) Florida license plates expired in June (06/22), I suffer from severe anxiety and had to drive an illegal vehicle on what was supposed to be a relaxing vacation. 4.) Vehicle needs front and rear brake pads and rotors. It nearly vibrated us out of the van when applying the brakes going down the mountain. I was actually afraid it was not going to stop a couple of times. 5.) This was my first rental with Avis and it was not a good one. 6.) I called Customer Service about the dirtiness and the expired tags, before I knew the brakes were shot. The customer Service representative agreed to refund me $100 from the Total. This refund has not yet hit my credit card account. 7.) In summary, I paid $404 to rent a dirty minivan with bad brakes that was illegal to drive on NC roads with expired tags. I fulfilled my contractual obligations, but Avis did not.

nothing The Avis rep from the location I reserved a car at 3 weeks prior called me at 6:05 pm the night before I was to pick up my car to tell em the location "had no cars". She said I would have to modify my reservation to pick up at another location. I tried the number she gave me and when i selected Modify Reservation from the menu I got an error message and then the call disconnected. I did this 3 times and then tried to call the original rep back and got no answer. Extremely frustrated, I called the customer service number back and chose make a reservation in hopes to speak to a human being. The agent and supervisor i spoke to connected me to a customer service rep named Juan in California who modified my reservation but couldn't 100% confirm a car was available because the location was already closed for the night. This meant I would be flying in to Raleigh North Carolina needing a car to complete the last 2 hours of my trip to another town without even knowing that I had a car available. I wound up canceling my reservation and my girlfriend had to take a day off work and change her schedule around so that she could come and pick me up and know that I was not stuck at the airport 2 hours away. Avis has incredibly poor customer service. It is unbelievable that a reservation can be made for a car and every single attempt to make sure that a car is available for a person is not made. Wiith multiple locations in a city, that agency should have done whatever it took to get a car to the location my reservation was scheduled. This experience was just awful.

The car that I was supposed to pick up was not available. The lady at front desk (who claims to be the manager) was rude and didn’t care. This is the worst experience and I will NEVER go back to this place for a car rental. I also told all the people in my group who were picking up the car with me what happened and none of them would ever go there!!
