The vehicle was reliable and unlimited mileage was needed.

When I arrived they had given all the cars away to walkins. There wasn't any cars available and I had to wait untill a vehicle came in. It wasnt cleaned and the gas tank was empty. It also made me late for my destination by an hour and a half. I had made the reservations 4 or 5 days ahead so I would have a car. Then they gave me a minivan because that's all that they had that came in.

Employees at the Indianapolis went above and beyond to ensure my needs were met when the car I had rented was delayed. A nice upgrade was their offer along with a free half-tank of gas. After the first leg of my trip, a low tire pressure indicator light came on around 10pm, clearly too late to do anything about it. By morning when I drove to the nearest Enterprise, it was down to 15. Once again, a nice upgrade. From there on out, it was smooth sailing. Thanks, Enterprise.

Arrived to see a sign on their door stating that the parking lot was going to be blacktopped that afternoon and customers wouldn't be able to leave our personal vehicles on the property. Confirmed this with the clerk inside, who shrugged at me when I asked where I was supposed to leave my car. "Sorry, but you won't be able to park it here". No provisions or alternate arrangements made, just "figure it out". Maybe I could have done that if I'd been called prior to arrival to let me know about the parking situation, but they didn't bother to do that. It's like they didn't even think it would be an issue. This isn't an airport location, so surely some percentage of their customers arrive in personal vehicles that they need to park. I ended having to cancel the reservation and take my own car on the trip; the very thing I was hoping to avoid by renting, as it has no AC or cruise control. Very poor service, and I won't be making another reservation here.

When I showed up they had no cars available and tried to send me 40 minutes away to get a car. When I tried to go to a more convenient location they said it would cost $150 extra.

We reserved a minivan. We checked in, signed off on paperwork, etc. The man went to grab the car and pulled around in an suv. Never did he say they didn’t have the minivan we reserved. When I asked at that moment, he said it was Fall Break and that was all they had. I asked if he could check with another location and he told me I could check with the airport.

The services I received were poor and unexpected. The gas tank was half filled when I picked up the car, but I filled it upon return The price at hire was increased on my bill and there was no explanation as to the increase. This practice is wrong and unfair to customers. Thank you.

What a joke! Booked a car online and received a confirmation that it was reserved. It even said no further contact required just turn up and pick up your car. So we turn up and there is no car available. It was a last minute booking and the car was urgently required and the lack of it caused a great deal of stress and unnecessary hassle. I would never use Hertz again and would think twice about using your service again. An awful experience.

The customer service reps for the pick-up and return locations were very kind and helpful.

Payless allowed me to reserve a car but didn't tell me that their shuttle wasn't working. I waited for 30 minutes before attempting to get a new car rental with Avis and noticed the sign regarding Payless customers speaking with Avis reps for car rental info. Then they didn't have the car I wanted and I had to drive a Jeep Wrangler in a storm. I will not rent from Payless again.

Went to pick up our rental, not even 2 hrs after having it all dash lights come on and it says malfunction, so my husband was at work and I went to take it back the guy was rude as ever talking about well he need to be here even though I had the contract and him on speakerphone while I’m at the counter. So then I have to go back up there again the next day for them to tell me they have no cars they had to upgrade the class so I went from a full size sedan to a Toyota 4Runner but what they seemed to have left out was that is be charged double my rental agreement daily.. very upset

Alamo was fine. I just didn't much care for the Audi as it is much over hyped in my opinion. 1. I mean the most prominent information in the center of the dash for the driver is the date & time?, and a picture of the car with a thermometer for the temp of the engine? REALLY?!? The speedometer is a small dial in the lower right hand corner. 2. You have to push AND HOLD the seat memory button until it reaches the correct position. 3. There is no speed limit indicator for the road you are driving on. 4. The cruise control lever is hidden below the steering wheel, out of sight, and you can't turn off that damn follow too close feature. If I don't know when to break or slow down, then I shouldn't be driving. 5. My 7 year old Genesis is a much better car.

I asked and PAID for a mid sized SUV. That’s not what I received. I received a small SUV; the attendant at the car rental counter even said it wasn’t mid-sized. In addition, waiting in line for 45 minutes to get the car was annoying. Not enough people were working at the car rental desk. But the amount of money I spent on medium sized SUV — compared to what I got — is absurd and I’m never renting through Kayak or Dollar again.

It was not all Thrifty's fault. My Delta flight out of DSM was delayed so I missed my connection in ATL. That didnt get me into Indianapolis until 1:30 am. All car rental personnel had gone home. I immediately called Thrify and they told me I had to contact Price Line and they said they would look into refunding me. I had tried to let them know of the delay earlier in the day on their automative answering system but got no response. I walked out to the car lot and found an Avis employee that helped me out. So if you can help make sure Price Line refunds me, I will continue to use Kayak. Thank You Darrin Lynd

Horrible|Jul 2021

I made a reservation for a car through kayak back in March at this location. When I went to pick it up at my scheduled date and time, they informed me that the over $500 I had already put down was nowhere to be found and that this happens frequently with kayak (who uses CarRentals.com). They just don’t forward your money to the vendor. They made me a reservation for a car, but did not forward my money to Thrifty. Additionally, I waited in line for more than an hour to find this out with no explanation about why the waits were so long. The staff were clearly stressed and overworked and I was not the only person having issues at the counter. Another person and their family stood at the counter for no less than 45 minutes. No one got away from that counter in less than 15 minutes and nobody was telling the Gold members they could leave the line and go get a car. A Gold member stood behind me in line and was not told he had special privileges until he was nearly at the counter, which made me upset for him! The places was incredibly disorganized and the staff was under trained and stressed. They were just trying to get through people and were not kind or good at explaining anyone’s issues. I would literally never rent from this location again even if my rental had gone off without a hitch when I got to the counter. Waiting more than an hour to unsuccessfully pick up my reservation was ridiculous, and the explanation I was given at the time made 0 sense and I had to piece it together with a friend after I was told to get OUT OF THE LINE and figure out my issue on my own. Just absolutely horrible. I might change or update this review if I ever get a refund of the money I paid in March for a car I was unable to pickup from this disorganized, overbooked location.

Customer service wasn’t so impressive. They don’t seem to have a good system of handing off calls made to the local rental desk when nobody’s there to cover the location. It gets sent off to a distant call center where they don’t have access to all the info. Their explanation: we use two different systems. Yeah, well that’s very uninteresting to the customer. Maybe you should use one system and stop the excuses. Also, include taxes and fees in your initial quote. Also, be more clear about how electronic tolls work. I’m waiting to be hit with all kinds of hidden charges, and the toll highways around chicago don’t allow cash payments.
