Pros:
I liked selecting and booking my rental through the online services.Cons:
I did not like that I could not make changes or that customer service stated they could not make changes and I had to call Fox or Priceline to make changes to the purchase. This could have been avoided if there was an option for the consumer to cancel or make changes just as easy as it is to the purchase.Alamo

Pros:
I was on a do not rent list that was a mistake that had nothing to do with me. I had to rent an Avis car for $300 more.Cons:
I booked this reservation 40 days ago. Nobody notified me there was a problem until I arrived at the counter2.0 Poor
Jun 2021
Pros:
The process was easy and straight forwardCons:
I requested a car that could handle the mountains; this car could not do so. Put me in a very dangerous position driving the switch backs.6.0 Okay
May 2021
Cons:
There was confusion regarding the class of vehicle. We had a luxury class vehicle reserved and I believe we only got a premium class vehicle. We dropped the car at Las Vegas Airport instead of a hotel which was 3 miles from the airport. Enterprise wants to charge me another $300.00 drop off fee in addition to the original $400 for a one-way charge!10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
OKCons:
When I rented/and paid the car via Kayak, it was noted as "unlimited" miles BUT when I picked up the car, I was told there was a 250 miles limitation per day.Therefore, at our scheduled pick up the vehicle time of 10 PM, I did not have other options but to rent the same vehicle BUT twice the cost!E-Z Rent-A-Car

Pros:

The wail, over 40 minutes, to see an agent to start the rental process.9.6 Wonderful
Jun 2017
Pros:
The gentleman that checked us in was very nice, check out was smooth and quickCons:
The line was extremely long, 2 member behind the counter for at least 20 people waiting. There was another employee there not helping customers check in. I'm not exactly sure what she was doing. Once a 3rd member came to the counter things moved much faster.2.0 Poor

Pros:
N/aCons:
They didn't have my car for me at 6:00am when it was reserved. They told me to sit and wait for 2 hours because staff went home sick. I went next door to Enterprise and they helped me right out.10.0 Wonderful
May 2017
Pros:
The overall ease of reserving, checking in and out and the quality of the ride.Cons:
Hard sell to upgrade.7.6 Good
Apr 2017
Pros:
At the car pick up place I noticed that the mystery vehicle I was rented seated 7 passengrs, way too big for me, one person. The car check out person did exchange the vehicle for a small sedan which was perfect. All vehicles were new, clean, and this part of the rental was easy.Cons:
I waited in line for a full hour, standing in line with thirty other people, to get to the counter to rent my vehicle. This was inexcusable. There were two customer service people behind the counter and it took about 10 full minutes per person to check out a car. This was after several hours of travel and I was anxious to get out of the airport and to my condo in the Phoenix area. Incidentally, my check out person had a cold and kept wiping his nose with his hand. Am wondering if he was contagious. You really need to hire more Advantage/E-Z Rental customer service agents to service the renters. Everyone in line was complaining about the wait and I did mention it to my agent who basically did not reply.5.6 Fair
Apr 2017
Pros:
Car was new and nice. Price was competitive.Cons:
After a long flight the last thing you want to do is wait for a car. We had to wait in line for about 45 minutes and they ran out of cars right after we got ours. Can you imagine landing, waiting in line for 45 minutes and then being told, sorry, I know you have a reservation but we can't honor it. That happened to about twenty people that I saw.Payless

Cons:
Waited in line an hour (at 10:pm) at the counter. Got my arm twisted to upgrade, but declined. Got the upgrade anyway, because they had no other cars. Received bill by email and full charge put on card, but I had already pre-paid part of the rental.2.0 Poor

May 2021
Pros:
Staff was nice.Cons:
1) They didn't have the car I'd requested or anything similar. 2) Car was dirty. They used the same dirty rag to wipe windows (which were smeared and hard to see thru) Crumbs were not fully vacuumed. Seats had dirt spots that could easily have been wiped off. 3) POOR signs. There was an exit sign pointing me to drive over road spikes. They had a stop sign... This was apparently for employees to bring in cars. They should have had a "do not enter sign" as well as a gate to prevent the confusion. When I mistakenly drove over the spikes, it sounded like this happens OFTEN. :(2.0 Poor
May 2021
Cons:
I asked now to have the coverage on the car as I already had insurance to cover me for collision and theft. They didn’t remove it from my fees and customer service said they couldn’t take it off since it was already finalized.Hertz

Dec 2019
Pros:
Everything else was good.Cons:
The lighting was so bad in the underground pick-up "choose a car" area that I felt I was choosing a car by braille. As it happened, I chose a vehicle with damage to the bumper area--which was not stated in my copy of the rental agreement. When I turned the car back in they said that I would be charged for it unless their cameras recorded the pre-existing damage. What a relief to eventually be proven "not guilty"!4.8 Mediocre

Sep 2018
Pros:
We somehow got a special price on this rental, that being said, the service from staff, pick up, drop off and shuttle to and from the air were all first class. Very high tech coordination with the car unlocking when we got to the rental center. Included were satellite radio, navigation and surprisingly gas mileage over 40 mpg on the highway. This is a great rental opportunity for many.Cons:
There was the fact that the car was an Audi Quattro, so smaller than I would normally rent, compared to my Ford Edge, but I cannot complain about anything.10.0 Wonderful
