I was about 2 hrs late and they charge me for another day and I called and told him that I couldn’t make it back by 9 AM that morning. I had to drive from West Palm Beach but they still charge me $128 for two or three hours. I think that’s just a little damn greedy.

I can can’t remember ever renting with Alamo, so this was essentially my first time. As noted, I booked online via Kayak, however when I arrived at CLT airport rental facility. The initial Alamo customer service representative was very rude and unfriendly. I believe she charged me a $400 dollar deposit because I was black. Due to the fact I was pressed for time I didn’t argue, I just paid the deposit and moved on in the moment. However, afterwards I re-reviewed the steps and information provided during the booking reservation process and no where was there language stating a policy regarding a the potential for a deposit. Again, I didn’t argue in the moment but the initial representative had an unkind attitude. However, everyone I encountered after leaving the checkin area were very pleasant people to talk to. If I wasn’t pressed for time the initial interaction could have forced me to make other rental arrangements. I am a premier Avis member so I could have simply walked 20 feet to the Avis counter.

Even though i had done the pre check in I still needed to go to the desk and wait in line. I dont know why I did a pre check in if I still needed to wait in line to go through all the same process a second time.
I've had the best experience renting from Enterprise. Everything went smoothly. They even let me pick my own car from a row of vehicles.

I used the dealers choice option, as I'm not picky and not a car person. But I didn't know they made cars as low quality as the one that Enterprise Rent-A-Car gave us to drive from Ventura to LAX. It was a tin can toy car, it felt like driving an utv, not a car. There was no sound insulation and every gust of wind knocked the car/made staying in my lane harder and really annoying. I think it was a mitsubishi and the lowest model they must offer. I think a lancer, after looking at google. However, the employees were kind at both locations and quick. So not the worst and it did drive. But I had also used Dealer's Choice with Budget Car in LAX to Ventura, and they gave us a much nicer car, it was either a hyundai elentra hybrid or a toyota corolla hybrid (sorry i'm not a car person and don't remember exatcly, but it was a nice driving experience with good gas mileage and audio).
The company is trying to charge me for damage I did not cause to the vehicle. The photographic evidence was not indicative of any damage having been done to the car. The dispute is ongoing.

The pickup was terrible. Extremely long lines and understaffed customer service. If I schedule a pickup at a certain time I do NOT expect to have to wait 90 minutes to get my vehicle and, worse, have to stand up the whole time waiting. Avis’ onboarding process hasn’t evolved since the 90’s. Their car was only moderately cleaned and mechanically had a moderate vibration issue suggesting bad tires or a bad suspension. THE DEBIT AND CREDIT CARD POLICIES NEED TO BE STATED BOLDLY DURING THE BOOKING PROCESS AND NOT AS FINE PRINT!!! WHERE IN THE BOOKING PROCESS DOES IT TELL YOU THAT YOU HAVE TO HAVE A FLIGHT ITINERARY TO USE A DEBIT CARD?? WHY WOULD YOU?????? There is a sign at the counter stating this policy. This means that Avis knows this is an ongoing issue with customers. So why wait until the customer gets to the counter to (reveal? emphasize?) the policy? Dumb. Or manipulative, knowing that customers are ‘captive’ at this point (after an HOUR AND A HALF WAIT). Is this a policy only at the airport counters? Is the idea to discourage local travel? Who knows? Who cares?! At this point I’ll be renting elsewhere

Budget sucks. They advertise one price then you get slammed with a “we’ll reconcile the rest of this math later” price at the end and it is far more expensive than you initially planned on. Wouldn’t recommend. All the extra hidden “airport fees” and taxes is absolutely criminal.
I had to wait in line for 3 hours to get the keys of the car. This was the worst experience I’ve ever had.

Bait and switch. Go with ANY other car rental service. Hertz will make you believe you have a car waiting for you then not have any available when you land. Then they will be more than happy to direct you to their partner companies Dollar and Thrifty to rent you a car at 5x the original quoted price you thought you had before you left for your trip. Don't know how else to say it. Just an absolute awful experience. This will be the one that makes me never use Hertz again.

The wait to pick up was very long, almost an hour, just one person at the counter and he was running from the Payless computer to the Avis computer , that was the most irritating. I’m not difficult on the car as long as it has 4 wheels a steering and AC But to comment, the seats were stained, the body was dented and scratched all over which I guess is a good thing nobody will want to steal it. The exhaust was rattling on ideal but only heard it if the windows were down Price was good and that’s what counts to me
