A devious service that simply gives the city in which you received a parking ticket, your contact…read moreinformation. They are the middle man for the rental car company and the city. They AUTO deduct money from your account. I rented a car in San Diego and received a $37.50 ticket for being 10 min over on the meter.... bad on me. I get a notice from VMS that I owe them $50. I figured the $50 would cover the ticket and the rest would go to VMS for their process. Wrong. They charged $50 just to act as the middle man between Budget and the City of San Diego. I guess I ok'd this service when I rented the car. Must of been in the fine print. A few weeks later I get a letter from the City of San Diego saying I still owe them for the ticket. So the grand total of the ticket was $50 VMS B.S. fee + $37.50 ticket + $3.00 convenience fee = $90.50 for being 10 minutes late on the meter.

If I can give 0 stars... Anyway, got the 50 buk fine letter and cc charge. The reason: I rented a…read morebudget car in San Diego and passed once on their toll way. Still tinking, why the rental is not registered for automatic toll payment??? Anywa y, about 6weeks later got the VMS letter; a week later Teh Toll Roads send me also a letter stating to pay 6.48 in 4 weeks or 106.48 after that. Now the question I still have is: did the VMS paid the 6.48 toll charge or I still need to pay it. So, have to call them tomorrow. Such a nasty case, where budget customers can be trapped to. Not taking budget cars anymore. Can someone inform if competition use same tricks to charge customers????

Beware to keep an eye out for charges on damages you did not cause. If this does happen, call Avis…read moreto dispute ASAP. We rented a car from Avis in Great Falls, Montana and dropped it off in O'Hare (Chicago, IL). When we picked it up in Great Falls, the vehicle had not been cleaned, had a large windshield crack, and oil change light on. The folks at the counter said they did not have time to clean/fix it and this was the only vehicle they had for us, so we took it. This part is ok, we could have walked away but were happy to at least have something. We documented everything with the staff. Since dropping off the car in O'Hare, we have received two separate letters charging us hundreds of dollars for damages we did not cause: once for cleaning and once for replacing the windshield. One of these arrived 2 months after our rental. In both cases, I called Avis to dispute because these were not damages we caused and we had documented all previous damage with the Great Falls staff. Since Avis obviously did not have proof that we caused the damage (since we didn't), they removed the charges. It is not acceptable that Avis is charging people without proof and putting the burden on the customer, even months after the rental.

If I could give Avis a zero I would! I was bringing a car rental from another state over to Montana…read moreand upon my retrieval for the car rental, I waited over 2 hrs for the car I had reserved. During my wait the Avis team had a change of shift where the new folks had no idea about my case until I become frustrated and went to the desk to inquire about it...the manager also seemed lost and was too worried to help their growing line. Because of this inconvenience, I was told I was going to get a $200 discount and that I could return the car rental later for this inconvenience. Never received discount on my card and when I returned the vehicle in Montana an hour later there was no one at the desk to help you and instead they have this key box for you to drop off the keys. I was 1 hr late as notified by the Avis team from my starting point and the Montana team billed me for 2 hrs late which wasn't even true! Never trusting my card with this car rental company and I WILL NEVER EVER use them again. Should have learned my lesson after a similar bad experience with Payless (which is a branch of Avis car rental along with Budget).
