If I could rate this place as a "0" I would. I should have known better after our last experience…read morewith this Hertz location, almost 7 years ago when they did us wrong. I have a review on that experience also posted. Any lazy person not wanting to exert themselves, this is the place to work! Absolutely no consequences if you don't do your job professionally! AND GUESS WHAT? THEIR CORPORATE OFFICE DIDN'T CARE AGAIN AFTER I REACHED OUT TO THEM and HAD NO INTEREST IN TRYING TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT BY AT LEAST MAYBE OFFERING US A FREE RENTAL IN THE FUTURE OR SOMETHING! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!!
Here is the story of what happened to us!
We had a big move from Texas to Florida. I meticulously organized the entire move for our large family. Right down to creating a reservation with Hertz back in NOVEMBER 2025 for a 15-passenger van.
To my surprise and disappointment, not once, did we receive a call, email or text from Hertz advising us that they did not have the vehicle we reserved and mind you, we reserved it 3-months prior to walking into the Hertz office to pick it up. However, we did find out, that day that we went to pick up this vehicle by two extremely unprofessional, unpleasant and EXTREMELY LAZY employees.
Especially, the female employee who sat on her a$$ avoiding having to exert herself most of the time we were there. Since they did not have our 15-passenger van, we were told they could give us (2) electric 7-passenger vans in its place. While, I was not completely sold on this idea, We asked how to use these type vehicles, as we have never used an electric car before, and the lazy A$$ girl says, "I don't know." EXCUSE ME! How does a car rental agent not know the answer but yet, you offer these type vehicles.
Do you believe that U-Haul in Katy, didn't have the size truck we requested, so we not only got a call and email from them advising us of this, but a text too, letting us know we could get the vehicle that we did want at another location and for the inconvenience, they would cut bill in half. CRAZY, RIGHT! Hmmm! Why can they be professional but not Hertz?
But wait, it gets better!!!! I had also arranged for a car rental from 1/21-1/31 that I paid $86 more for an upgrade on. However, when there, I was told they didn't have that car either, that we upgraded and paid for, so we needed to settle for a smaller SUV and the only price difference was $4 less. How is that even possible? The original car that we were going to get before upgrade was the same type car they were offering. $86 vs $4.
I had also used Affirm for this car rental like we have done so many times when renting cars at other rental agencies (Budget, Enterprise, Dollar, etc.). However, the male rep told me to tap the card. I explained this was paid for by Affirm and that they provided me with a digital credit card that he would need to enter it manually. He said he couldn't do that. This is ludicrous as many bank cards don't have the capability of tapping either. My personal bank credit or debit card doesn't have the ability to tap. It's a small bank. Not every card has this feature.
The employees acted as if we didn't matter! They were rude, lazy and unprofessional!
Hertz left us scrambling last minute for two new rentals! Thankfully, Enterprise was there to help us and what a great experience! Courteous, professional and NOT LAZY staff at all!!!!
Do you realize how much money Hertz lost from us for these two rentals. However, Enterprise was more than happy to take it from us and we were happy to pay.
Hertz needs to improve on who they hire. Stop hiring lazy, rude a$$ and unprofessional staff. Educate them and for God's Sake, contact customers if you don't have the vehicles.
Personally, I believe these two staff members should be fired! They lost Hertz business and they don't deserve the paycheck! They just didn't care about doing their job or taking care of the customer.
In conclusion, if Enterprise didn't have a 15- passenger van, we would have been in a world of hurt. Thank God they came through for us!!!!!
Budget has also been amazing when ever we deal with them.
We won't even give Hertz a third chance. They have lost our business and a lot of business as we travel a lot. Good riddens!!
