Why hit a gas surcharge when the driver filled it up and videoed the gas gage, and then there is no way to contest the fuel surcharge of 9.99$ as it is an ereceipt. Just makes me feel like budget is untrustworthy as that charge is a scam as I filled it up past what it was supposed to be.

car was clean. check-in agent was friendly. however, are some ideas to improve 1. many companies upgrade customers just for the sake of prompting business, and keep happy 2. the car we rented sputtered several times. cars should be maintained more frequently. 3. car had close to 50,000 miles and that's quite a bit on a rental car. should be retired. 4. price to value is no good. I paid a total of $202 for one day of rental. that's is quite a bit. your rate is high, the taxes are high, and everything else is simply too expensive. 5. I booked a Kia Rio 2023, and I received a Nissan Versa with 50.000 miles on it.

I ordered my car for 8AM and when we shoes up at 9AM due to a delayed flight and getting stuck on the train we were told our car was not ready yet and it would be another hour and a half before we could get it. They had plenty of cars available but I “had to upgrade” to get it. The customer service agent threatened to call the police if I didn’t move over so he could upsell someone else. They tried the same exact thing on the person next to me. They offered me an electric car as an option which I refused and they told them they didn’t have any electric vehicles available and tried to upsell them into a more expensive vehicle they “did have”! A total rip-off. After I told the customer service rep that, lo and behold, I had a free upgrade and a vehicle within 5 minutes! Another thing was that they never mention to you that you can refuse their insurance. It was just which option do you want? Luckily I knew about my credit card perks and that my regular insurance covers rental cars and that my homeowners insurance covers my personal belongings. Most car insurance policies cover rental car damage just like your regular car, by the way! Check that before you pay for unnecessary coverage you already pay for.

I did not enjoy waiting 45 minutes in line to pickup the car. Also, it ended up being a Hertz vehicle and Hertz had practically no line, so that added Insult to Injury.

I was not able to pick up a rental at Thrifty. The counter was closed (at 10pm) yet my reservation was for 10pm. I was charged for this reservation (through rentalcars.com) even though I could not pick up the car. Shameless. Horrible. I've been emailing with rentalcars.com and they stand by their no refunds etc. But there was no service. Horrible.

Despite reserving and partially paying ahead of time, the wait to see someone at the counter was 2 hours, as Dollar and Thrifty combined made for a very long line of people. I don't think it's right that person's with reservations have to wait in the same line with people who don't have any reservations.

The car was good.

One of the staff members' masks was below their nose almost the entire time. They gave the car to me empty on gas. The tire air pressure was also low so I had to go pay to fix that, even though I've never done it before since I don't own a car and hence why I was renting one. I spent extra money doing that since I didn't know what I was doing and needed to try multiple times. They also charged me for 8 days of tax and insurance rather than the 7 that I had booked.
