I liked that the rental place was in the airport. Andre was too nosey about why I was there and pushed rental insurance with them when I already had it through you. He also tried to get me to buy an entire tank of gas when I only needed a quarter tank. I felt like he tried to swindle me more than help me or guide me clearly. He gave no advice on where to refill the tank. The guy in the garage when I returned was very helpful and supportive when I thought I was going to miss my flight due to traffic.

I was NOT satisfied at all!!! I reserved the vehicle, got in line for pick-up and I was told that there wasn’t any more vehicles.!!!! That is NOT acceptable. I had to wait in line for a shuttle to take me to my hotel!! UNACCEPTABLE!!!!! I will make sure to NEVER use Alamo again. I will definitely tell my friends and family to go to another reputable car rental that will honor their reservations. Regards,

The agent was friendly when we picked up the car. However, the fees that I paid online were far less than the total I was quoted. For the Moore, the car I actually selected was not available, and I was not given an upgrade fee of charge, even though I had already paid for my reservation online with a credit card. The upsell tactics by the agent were fairly aggressive, and the full insurance was pretty outrageously priced. The car itself had extensive water spots on the exterior and was not very clean.

When I booked the rental it stated that a Chevrolet Trailblazer was being g reserved for me. Whe I arrived to pick up the rental it was a different smaller vehicle. Not large enough for 4 adults with luggage for a cruise. Attendant let me choose a more appropriate sized vehicle. That worked out great. That was the only issue I had. Everything else worked out great.

i got there an hr early they did not have the car i reserved. they wanted to charge me 80 dollars for for estimated milage . I made sure i had unlimited milage through Kayak.. they wanted to charge me an extra 36 dollars for insurance . i had purchased insurance through a 3rd party using your website. they also wanted to charge me 52 dollars cause i was an hour early. so with what I paid Kayak it was going to cost me around 300 dollars to rent a car that wasn't even in the class of vehicle I reserved. so i decided not to get this rental. so when i got to my destination i went to cancel my reservation. I could no longer cancel this reservation . now im charged with a service of Kayak that i did not use with no ability to cancel so very much will not be going through Kayak for future trips very unsatisfied former customer Danny Elliott

The rental agreement when I picked up the vehicle stated clearly that pick up was at Portland Int'l Airport and drop off was at Eugene Airport. Total estimated cost $54.28. Receipt emailed to me after drop-off added $29.00 for "Intercity Fee." It was clearly an intercity situation from the start and adding $30 after the fact seems like bullshit to me. Hertz unresponsive so far. Will dispute with my credit card company.

I was traveling with my son in a wheelchair, I’m older.. the walk from the rental office to the car I was picking up, in the rain, was awful. It was way too far to be wheeling a wheelchair, two large suitcases, carry on bags, and a walker.. I was never offered help, nor did any of the guys sitting in their chairs waiting for drop off, offer to help. Nor did they as I was struggling to get everything in the car we picked up.. And yo make matters worse, the electric windows stopped working, yes, I checked the window lock, and I had to drop the car off, walk all the way back to the office, walk all the way, even further, for a replacement car.. only to have the man in the lot accuse me, not once, but twice, for not giving him the keys to the first rental,at the third accusation, said “got them”.. No apology, nothing. I will never rent from any of the three places they represent.. Hertz, Thrifty, and Dollar.. Disgusting..

I had multiple charges that were more than I signed up for. Have made 4 calls to dollar and still have been charged too much. quote was in CAD and they have charged the CAD price in USD. Spent more time on the phone with them than driving the car. Still have to call again to get this fixed. Dealing with 3 companies, not customer service at expedia/kayak, passing the buck. Search for drop off location in Utica said none available even though there was one 5 minutes away in Yorkville which was not suggested. Had to drive 2 hours for no reason to Syracuse and no option to switch once this was discovered. Very disappointed with this experience, feel frustrated, ripped off and still need to waste more time to sort this out.

My experience was very bad!! I booked online and they chargede for the whole amount. Then when I arrived at the airport to pick my car up, they told me they didn’t take my card! I told her it’s doesn’t say no where on the policy online that it states that they don’t take chime credit cards. The employee and the manager were both rude! Nobody wanted to refund my money.

Pick up and drop off was quick and easy. But very disappointed in my bill. I prepaid for this rental for 4 days, being sure that I was getting unlimited miles. After drop off I received a bill for additional fees, including fuel at $5 a gallon because the person at the desk at pick up told me not to fill up before drop off. I could’ve filled up for far cheaper and would’ve been happy too if I hadn’t specifically been told to not fill up. I was also charged a fee for it being an airport pick up. Won’t be using Payless again after this, there are much better companies to rent from for similar prices.
