pick up was very inconvenient. Very long line (no other rental car counter had anything similar)

The car rental experience at Detroit Metro Airport is notoriously horrible. It has been that way for years. Rental a car at Detroit Metro Airport is like stepping back in time to the early 1990's and entangling oneself with every weakness and setback that we have forgotten or left behind for the past 30+ years. Long lines, antiquated technology, no on line check-in, impetuous staff and high rates and fees. I almost forgot waiting outside in the freezing cold for several minutes as slow-moving buses lumber across an abandoned parking lot with dim lights. There is nothing enjoyable about renting a car at DTW.

I got conned into buying insurance and roadside even though I had all of that already. I tried explaining tot he lady at the Avis rental counter in Austin that since I had my own insurance I was paying with my AMEX I was double covered but she would not let me rent the car until I bought the over priced insurance. Took my rental from being 262 for three days to 600 for three days. Complained after the experience and was told that I could not get my full refund for the insurance or roadside because they are OPTIONAL and you do not HAVE to buy them. I was only offered a 50% refund. I will never use QEEQ as an aggregator or use Budget/Avis rental ever again. This was complete dishonesty and I will spread the word. Horrible company do not use any of these services mentioned.

We had reserved a full-size SUV for my husband his wheelchair our luggage and all the fun things we need to travel with and there was no SUV available. Turns out there were actually two, but they weren’t ready to be sent out yet cause I hadn’t been serviced and the service guys had gone on break so we ended up waiting half an hour before we got our car after landing. We did get our SUV and they assisted us in loading the car afterwards though. When I went to drop off the car, a flight had just landed so I stood in line because there wasn’t an obvious sign that I could just drop off my keys anywhere.

There was only one woman checking customers in. She took at least 10 minutes or more for each reservation. No energy. Computer that looked like it was from the 1980’s.. Dinghy check in building that sits way in the back corner of a dirty property. My car was difficult to find in the parking lot since Avis cars are opposite the Budget cars. Stupid numbering system. I will never rent from Kayak or Budget or Avis again!! Nothing but Negative experience!
