Vehicle is new, very comfortable, ran fantastic. Very easy to rent a car at this airport and to return it. The you g lady who took me to my van was awesome!

The guy working at the desk is unfriendly and didn’t seem to enjoy his job working with people. Second time I’ve had the same experience with someone working at this counter at this airport. When I pulled a van around to pick up my family at baggage claim we realized someone had not put the flooring back correctly and it was difficult for them to quickly get in because they were two huge holes when you open the side van doors. We had to find a good spot once we left the airport where we could get out and put the flooring back the way it was supposed to be. I cannot imagine how difficult this would have been if I were picking up children instead of Teenagers. The seats fold down into the floor and someone had apparently pulled the seats back up where they belong but never bothered to put the flooring back right when they were cleaning it.

Vehicle was not properly cleaned when picked up, inside and out. Customer service call center poorly trained on understanding customer concerns and rude. Spoke to multiple agents over the span of 5 hours, including a phone call with my bank on 3 way and got conflicting information from agents. Will not book with Hertz again.

The Priceline deal for the Hertz rental was not a deal! Priceline charged $187.00 which did not include the Alliance Insurance for $22.00, which was not needed because I had to purchase the Hertz' insurance when I picked up the vehicle. Then with all other taxes and fees plus necessities (gas, added drivers), the car ended up costing me $357. That's not a deal for a one-day rental. A disclaimer should be put on the screen stating that insurance will need to be purchased when picking up the vehicle. Also, there should have been more of a discount on the price overall.

The car pick-up in Charlotte is chaotic and long. The car I was assigned stank of cigarette smoke. When I dropped the car off, the line of returns stretched outside the return area and I was not given a receipt upon return, so I didn't have proof that my rental had ended.

The car was dirty, smoke filled smell, back hatch covered in soot and dirt. The tank was 3/4 full not full as they stated. A dent on the bumper needed to be pointed out. Tire pressure in front right tire was 19 and we needed to pull of road, find a gas station and fill it up. No discounts offered for 3 nights. The bill was $317, hardly inexpensive. A horrible experience will never rent with them again.

I waited nearly an hour to get my car. I paid for and ordered a Full Sized Pickup (F-150 or larger) and was given a little Escape mini compact suv. I’m 6’4” and was super cramped in it. It was laden with dents / dings, and I could not pickup the mattresses and comforters than I needed to get so I had to pay $500 for delivery. The tank was half full when I picked it up and I was also still charged for the Large Pickup cost.

The only reason I booked with them was because of their price.

But I guess you get what you pay for. When I first booked the car online nowhere did it say of you are in-state you have to have a credit card or that you have limited mileage. How is this fair when if I was from out of town I got unlimited miles and could use a debit card for the 200 deposit??? Getting to the place is where they tell you all of that. Since I dont have a credit card I waisted money on a reservation with them. They wouldn't let me add another driver to the policy since the reservation was done online (yet online...it's not an option to add another driver). I couldn't use someone's else's credit card with the same last name as me (and who was right there with me to give consent for the use of their card) yet at other car rental companies I have done that before in the past. I needed a car and theirs was cheaper so I ended up getting another reservation with them in someone else's name. With this reservation (although it was also done online) I could now all of a sudden and an additional driver to it. They said when we turn the car back in, any occurred charges could be paid for with another card. When we brought the car back, they lied and said they wouldn't charge us for an additional driver however, they did anyways placing that charge on a credit card that no charge should have been made to. I had absolutely no problem paying for the additional driver, however it would have been done with a debit card so don't lie to me about where it's getting charged to not mess up people's credit status.

Online showed insurance added $11 day should have been like $44. I didn't bother going back and forth with the pricing need transportation until mine out shop. Manager Owner information on business card never answered cell. Agent T. declined to provide corporate number stated have no clue what it is.
