This was actually at the location I wanted to get the car, in Cayse, SC. Apparently not the case. Since we have a debit card we needed to only rent the car at the airport, as long as we had a flight manifest showing we would be returning to the airport to go home. Other than that snafu, everything was great. I did have to call the Cayse location a couple of times for help, they were AMAZING...because the rental location at the airport both never returned phone calls (leave a message and we'll call you back) or answered the phone.

It was easy to find in the garage, and exit was clearly marked. It would have been more convenient if there had been an employee in the garage to check in my vehicle, or at least a drop box for the key. Other rental companies had employees checking in cars. Having to take the key back inside to the rental counter was just inconvenient when I needed to get to the ticket counter.

Do not attempt to call their front counter - as they will never answer, however when you go into the location in-person they are assisting no customers. Attempted to reach the "City Manager" on multiple occasions, leaving voicemails - with again, no luck. We've rented a Kia K5, Nissan Versa, and Nissan Sentra- and each drove as if they were not maintained- sad for a semi new car. If you're looking for a cheap car, bad service, and zero support- this is the place for you. I'll take my business back to Enterprise.

Last time renting from Dollar. This was a prepay rental at…read morethe Cleveland Airport. Car was not ready but I did get an upgrade. My problem is 1 of 2. First they changed the tax on a prepay. No one else does this, the airline and hotel didn't increase their price so why is Dollar stating the taxes changed on a prepay??? Second, I had an early morning departing flight so I filled up the car the night before. A few weeks later I received a letter stating the car was 3.3 gallons less from full and I would be charged $38.00. I kept the receipt so this will be disputed with Visa. Be advised, STAY AWAY from Dollar car rental!!!!

A representative opened the door to tell me this and I let him know I had a reservation. He connected me with the branch manager, Shannon Jessop, who told me I needed to show up on time to things and then I wouldn't lose out (It was 12:04pm at this time) and there was nothing they were going to do. She told me they didn't have any cars anyway even if I did show up on time. I was there at noon as indicated on my reservation and having booked with enterprise previously, I have been informed by the staff to come right at the booking time, so I was operating under previous instruction. I was then kicked out of the store without resolution, and so I called Enterprise customer service and received the same attitude, lack of resolution and lack of acknowledgement that this was an error on the booking portal end and not my own. I asked the phone representative to speak to her manager and she got very aggressive and transferred me to an Uber phone number that automatically hung up on me. This is an unnecessary negligent service experience and I am very disappointed in Enterprise's institutional ethos. I have reported the branch to the better business bureau, filed a corporate complaint, and am now posting on social media.

Review for Hertz - Columbia Metropolitan Airport (CAE), South Carolina…read more After a very long late-night flight into Columbia, my husband and I rented a car from Hertz. We did encounter a few billing issues and, due to our early return, weren't able to speak with anyone at the counter before leaving. However, once we reached out to Hertz, the responsiveness and professionalism we received were excellent. Manager Leigh Mitchell personally followed up with an email, apologized, and ensured the issue was corrected. We truly appreciated her attention to detail, the follow-through, and the commitment to customer service. I am especially grateful to Leigh Mitchell for turning a stressful situation into a positive experience.
