Worst experience ever. Our vehicle was to be rented from Long Beach airport. Once i got the another enterprise they gave a SUV which definitely needed service. Every time i brakes or turned the steering it made some abnormal noise from the right rear. Very hazardous. Would not recommend this place nor their vehicles. Also, When i first enter there office one of the staff member was arguing of the customer on the phone for over charges.

There was a difference between the price when I booked on Kayak and what I was sent from their 'partner' for the rental (Priceline - that price was a bit higher), but the Kayak price was what I was charged by Dollar. Long wait in line for pick up at the Santa Ana airport, looked like that was the case at the other places too. Service at the counter was good, and I was happy with the car. Car return was very smooth and the staff person there was great.

Bad from the start. Checked in and had to provide card used for booking. Since it was booked online through apple pay, no card was used. I was forced to call customer service to change the card although it was pre-paid. This caused a 15 minute delay. Then when I went back to the counter, after checking me in, they said the car would be ready in 40 minutes at 2:40. My check in was 1:30. Of course they offered that if I paid for an upgrade it would be ready now. Scam.

A one day rental is over priced for a compact vehicle. Pick up took over 1 hr. Drop off: closed upon scheduled arrival time at 2pm and had to wait over 35min for the office to open (20+min more than the sign said on the door), which is ridiculous bc it was still unannounced since the scheduled time was 2pm. Basically causing delays of almost 23rd in our plans. Not professional or acceptable to repeat business with Budget

I had to wait almost 1 hour for my vehicle, offered a lower class vehicle for the same rate, cost to insure the vehicle is very high and I had to search for the manager because the employee would not call him. The good news is that the manager comp me for some of the rental fees.

The documents received from the Alamo Rental Car desk team at SNA did not include their particular location’s phone #. Once finding the SNA Alamo Rental Car phone # on the web, their hours of operation were listed incorrectly, and I then needed to phone the MAIN ALAMO CUSTOMER SERVICE # to reach an agent to extend my reservation for another day. It would be helpful for the SNA Airport Alamo Rental Car franchise to include their office phone # and update the corrected regular business hours on all documentation given to clients and on the internet. Thank you.
