Our rental experience was a complete nightmare when it came to getting the rental its self. The first time we showed up we had called ahead to make sure that paying in cash was not gonna be an issue but apparently with that singular location, Our rental experience was a complete nightmare when it came to getting the rental it’s self. The first time we showed up we had called ahead to make sure that paying in cash was not gonna be an issue but apparently with that singular location it is an issue and it requires to have an open credit card and not cash only unless you have two airline tickets now this became a huge problem because I did not have this prepared on hand. I had called prior and check the website to make sure that this wasn’t gonna be an issue and yet it was. The ladies then invited me to go to the other site down the street they couldn’t call for whatever reason to assist me but they suggested we go down there and we go down there. They do not have anything or do they have any suggestions for anything else in this whole beginning of my experience with renting a car through Alamo was absolutely garbage. The ladies laughed because this was a regular issue , which didn’t really help anything at all in the car itself was great. It was literally just the customer service experience when I did call the customer service line to get assistance. I was told multiple times have the policy worked and then when I finally asked the gentleman if he was going to assist me after I was told that he was going to be able to help with the cash/card problem. He’s straight up told me no he wasn’t going to help me and hung up the phone. The rental it’s self was great but we had to air up tires shortly after leaving.

First of all my sister had rented the car and I was the driver unable to pick up vehicle and Tony was no help and very rude. 2nd the next rear tire kept going low and we had to stop frequently to our air in the tire. We called a lost the tire issue and was told we needed to take it to Firestone and have the tire fixed or have them change the spare. There was no sense in Alamo sending someone out for just a tire. Well if that tire had blown out you would of been doing more than just a tire. I don’t feel it’s my job to fix the tire on a rental care but then again pick was terrible so why would I think custom service would be any better. Do not rent from Alamo ever

I booked the 12 passengers van from Avis thru Expedia since 12/26/22. I have confirmed the reservation several times and have records from Expedia and on my Avis app. The rental called 4pm the night before pick up date and told us there is no van for us. The only option is Suburban. We have a large group of out of country people arrive here for wedding. We even called Avis main customer service. The staff and manager was a joke. Terrible customer service and ask me if I want to cancel my reservation. Then I tried to call Expedia. No help whatsoever. I don’t know how my reservation turned in to Kayak and Budget???? Anyway the worst experience possible in my whole life.

NEVER rent from Dollar, the orphan child of Hertz. Expect 0 customer service and runaround’s that will waste your time. WHAT YOU SEE IS NOT WHAT YOU WILL PAY. A quoted $350 one way from BNA to RDU went horribly wrong upon return. An older Kia Minivan ended up running me $850 for a 36 hour rental because I returned 4 hours late, despite calling Dollar (waiting 1 hour on hold), and being told the extra charges would amount to $31.50. Agent upon return said if I had a dispute to go to the Hertz counter, Hertz employee just checked my rental out on the computer and handed me the bill, not at all willing or able to hear that there was a discrepancy between being quoted $31.50 extra vs the nearly $400 extra I have paid. As someone loyal to National, I’m not making this same mistake again and advise everyone to avoid Dollar- possibly even Hertz too unless you’re a premium member.

I had an SUV prepaid and reserved for a 10 AM pickup. When I got to the booth, I was told that there was a 90 minute to 2 hour delay. I waited over an hour then agreed to take a smaller car. I was told that there was no way to know when I could get the SUV I had paid for. There were 2 other people in front of me still waiting on SUV's. Then when I returned the car at 6 AM, they were not open. I had to drop it and hope it was still there and in good shape when they finally opened. DO NOT USE DOLLAR

Needed a Standard SUV to pack up my stuff to move 12 hours away. I made the reservation 3 weeks in advance, and I get a call 2 hours before my pickup time saying that they didn't have the vehicle I reserved. They then directed me to another pickup location and changed my reservation without my permission and doubled my daily rental rate. They didn't answer my phone calls, which directed me to the main office in Dallas, and their response was "Sorry sir, we can't change your reservation back". I showed up to the new location and got stuck with a smaller vehicle that didn't have enough room for my belongings. The whole thing has been absolute nonsense. If you don't have the vehicle I reserved, don't have it as an option for me to set up a reservation under.

The pickup location is very obscure at the Nashville airport. You have to go to the counter inside the airport unlike all the other rental companies. It was very hard to find. Payless is grouped with Avis but you can not check in at the Avis counter with the other rentals. There are no signs for Payless. We found it after waiting in line for a while only to be told we have to go back inside the airport. Then the person at the counter was very rude and did not seem to want to be there. When we returned the car at the Atlanta airport, we were confused as well because we did not fully realize that Payless would be grouped with Avis everywhere.

I cannot convey my disappointment strongly enough. I am both astounded and infuriated by the “service” I received this past week from Hertz, a company that once stood for reliability and exceptional customer service. After booking a car half a month in advance at a Memphis, TN location, I was blindsided just 30 minutes before pickup with the news that there were no cars available. What transpired next was a catastrophic circus of confusion and disappointment. The customer service line first asserted there were "no cars available,” but then proceeded to offer me a mid-sized sedan at my original location, which doesn’t fit with the “no cars available” narrative. However, upon arrival at the pick-up location, the local staff informed me that there were, in fact, no cars at all. The ones I saw ‘available’ online were rented out for insurance claims. I suggested a call to the airport location for their availability, but local staff met that with a cynical, "Oh, the airport won't answer their phone, good luck there." When I attempted the customer service line, they dangled the promise of an available car at the airport, only to snatch it away upon discovering my one-way drop-off requirement (which was clearly outlined in my reservation and booking that Hertz reneged on same-day). Driven to desperation, my search extended to Nashville, a full three hours away from my original Memphis pick-up location. After a tedious call to establish the availability of a truck for one-way, single-day trip, the customer service agent asked if I could be put on hold and severed the call. These are not mere inconveniences but substantial disruptions. Hertz's right hand doesn't have a clue what the left hand is doing. This experience left me questioning the integrity of Hertz, their business ethics, and their commitment to customer satisfaction. If I had not had a support system to fall back on (aka my 71-year-old father-in-law driving 6 hours in a single day to fetch me), I wouldn’t have been able to attend a family wedding—and most folks wouldn’t have that back-up option. How is this ok? Hertz provided zero help in mitigating their failed service, and openly laughed at my attempts to solve it myself. The Better Business Bureau needs to investigate Hertz ASAP.

They refused to accept my payment using Affirm. They stated I needed the credit card I used to rent the car with. I used Affirm. So they refunded (I've yet to receive that) my payment, canceled the reservation, and made me rebook the car using a credit card I had with me. The people working the counter did nothing to help me and made me call the 1-800 line multiple times to fix this. How is this my fault? I spent 2 hours at the airport trying to get a car. I was just charged by Affirm today because they've never received a refund. Someone needs to fix this situation. If Affirm is not an option, they shouldn't offer it.
