Piarco Car Hire

Cons: Most of the employees at this alleged Hertz rental location were slow & confused. When we arrived at Piarco Airport at about 5am, we called Hertz & were told that even though we had made a reservation in advance, there were no rentals available. We sat at the airport for TWO HOURS, waiting for them to figure out a vehicle for us, although it should have been ready & waiting. Instead of taking a pre authorization for the depsoit, we were charged a full $600 which is $100 more than they originally stated because of the car that we ended up with was a (tiny) SUV, in addition to the cost of the actual rental. This was not expressed in advance by Kayak or "Hertz", what if we were not prepared to spend an additional $600, on top of vacation expenses?! The charges on my card were not even from Hertz, instead they were from Lifestyle Motors Ltd. What exactly is that? I selected Hertz because it was a name that I recognized & trusted but somehow ended up renting through a shady company with inept employees who have no idea what customer service is. Disappointed & disgusted.

Cons: My flight got in at 1015 , it was noted to them I'm getting in at that time, their office said their business hours were 8am-11pm my brother got to the airport at 930 and no one answered the phone they have there to reach their office 2 other customers were there as well and said they were having the same problem, we went to the office which is located 3 min away from airport and they were closed we had to get cars from enterprise , I called the next day and they were really rude

Cons: The deposit

Cons: There was a miscommunication about my initial rental plans - I could have solved it with an email, but it didn't occur to me as I had other things on my mind. In the end it was sorted out on my arrival and even ended up saving me money.
