    I was only supposed to be charged 69 bucks not 643.27
    Cody G.

    I normally do not write reviews but..... this place is horrible, I have rented in the past so it must be this place specifically. I rented a car from I believe it was Ray (at least that's what it says on my receipt) and was told to wait while he cleans the vehicle for us. Well literally one minute later and he also just sat and stared at us, proceeded to tell us we're good and hand us the keys. WE WERE CHARGE 574.09 DOLLARS FOR A CLEANING FEE AFTER WE DROPPED OFF THE VEHICLE. ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? Absolute rip off and scam. I had to wait over a week for my funds to be reimbursed back to me and it's a good thing I checked my credit card statement because I didn't even receive a notice or receipt via email until after I spoke to the billing department. Definitely shady practice going on at this location I recommend enterprise to the desk next to them at this location.

That's not the end of the world though - I'm a reasonable person - the real problem was no one could help me for days: not the local office, not corporate, no one - and even after 5 days when they finally replaced my car and promised me a refund, they failed to refund me - I started calling them every week and nicely explaining my situation, but they just kept telling me that only the local manager can help, and the local manager ignored me every time. And it gets worse... when they wouldn't refund me I disputed the credit card charge, and they told my credit card company there was nothing wrong and took the money back. I've re-disputed and I hope to have success, now a month later.

Drove the car approximately 6 miles total back and forth to my friend's house on 8/4 car was in a hotel parking lot overnight. On 8/5 car would not start. Check engine lights, battery and oil all lit up on dashboard. Called customer service, tow truck could not come for 2 hours. They had NO REPLACEMENT car available for me. The closest available car they could offer was in Newark Airport. I had to forfeit the $88 I paid to transport the car on the Bridgeport ferry. Even after I explained that I had to be at a memorial for my father they were essentially like "oh well" they also declined to refund my car rental for the day I had no car. So I had to spend over $300 total for Ubers to get me to the service and back. And then when I got home, I discovered that they EXTENDED my rental (the one that broke down) and charged an additional $1400 to my credit card despite the fact that their tow truck took the car at 11:53 on 8/5 and the car was in my possession for 25 hours TOTAL. I have disputed all charges with my cc and have filed a complaint with the BBB. Do not use this company under any circumstances.

    About a month ago, I made a reservation for a compact vehicle. Upon arrival, I was greeted by an…read moreassociate and, what appeared to be, a manager. The associate was very helpful until I was asked to provide proof of personal auto insurance. I explained that I did not have a personal auto insurance policy because I did not have a functioning vehicle at the time. I also informed the manager that I worked for Enterprise in Florida, but my driver's license was still issued by Connecticut because I was in the process of transferring it to Florida for my employment. I explained that I am a student who has lived in Florida for the past two years, but I had only been employed with Enterprise for about three weeks at that point. The manager then questioned why my license was still from Connecticut and made a passive-aggressive comment: "Well, if you work for Enterprise, how is your license still in CT? Even here we have to transfer them." I found this unnecessary, especially after I had already explained my situation. Shortly afterward, she told me she needed to see a utility bill and repeatedly stated that everything would be "verified thoroughly." She emphasized this multiple times, making me feel as though she viewed me as a liability. As an Enterprise employee with a valid Connecticut driver's license, I knew this additional verification was not required because my profile is already verified to rent, as indicated by the green verification circle. I know this because I have rented from multiple Enterprise branches in Florida without any issues. After I provided a utility bill, she then informed me that she could not accept my debit card, despite having seen it in my hand throughout the interaction. At that point, another customer who had overheard the conversation stated that she had just paid with the exact same type of card I was attempting to use and had experienced no issues. Overall, I felt discriminated against during this interaction, especially as an Enterprise employee who understands the rental and verification process. It seemed as though the manager was looking for any reason not to rent to me and continued asking unnecessary personal questions regarding my residency. The experience was particularly frustrating because I urgently needed a one-way rental to transport my belongings back to Florida. As a result, I had to visit a different Enterprise branch, where I was assisted without any issues. They did not require nearly as much documentation or questioning as I experienced at the Branford branch. Enterprise prides itself on providing exceptional customer service, and I know that firsthand because I strive to uphold those standards every day as an employee. Unfortunately, I did not receive that same level of professionalism or respect during this experience, which was both disappointing and disheartening.

He explained all the charges and gave me what I thought was a decent deal considering we'd have the car for 11 days. The car was actually a minivan which was perfect so that we had plenty of room.

At no point during the booking process was I told a physical card was required. Apparently, if you're returning the rental to a different location, that's a requirement. Instead, I was told to take an Uber to another location and hope they had a vehicle available. I called ahead to make sure they did and was told they had an SUV. I got there, and they gave me a minivan instead...then charged me extra for the "upgrade." Looking back, I should've cut my losses right then. The drop-off was even worse. My reservation ended at 1:00 p.m., and I arrived at 1:08 p.m., only to find out the location had closed at 1:00 p.m. I was never informed that my reservation end time was the exact same time the location closed. I called customer service, and their solution was to drop it off at another location...and, you guessed it, charge me again. I was told the grace period doesn't apply if the location closes at your scheduled drop-off time. On top of that, they charged me for an extra hour because it took time to drive to the new location. Not to mention the gas I had to use getting there. Customer service eventually agreed to refund the extra rental hour, but that doesn't erase the inconvenience or the lack of accountability. I have never experienced such unaccommodating and unprofessional customer service from a company. Needless to say, Budget will never get another penny from me, and I'd strongly caution anyone considering renting from them to think twice. Save yourself the headache.
