    An angry supervisor with a neck tattoo

    Worse experience ever and horrible customer service to match. Muhammad acted like a POS and when I asked him for the corporate number, he tossed a pamphlet at me. I then asked him for a pen and he also tossed that at me. I called the customer service number and told them what was going on and all they did was confirm that there were vehicles available, said thank you, bye and hung up on me. I then spoke with the supervisor, who told me that their corporate office had overbooked vehicles but that there was nothing she could do. As I was speaking with her she became irritated and shut the window on me and told me to go away. I then pulled out my cellphone to record her behavior and she yelled at me to stop recording before she called airport security to have me removed. Don't waste your money or time at this location.

    Ayaya, this crew could use some training in the department of efficiency and sense of urgency. The line kept growing yet their speed to turn customers and get them on the road remained perpetually slow. I waited more than 50 minutes in line to get my rental car. During that time I contemplated cancelling my reservation and booking with one of the other options on-site. Despite there being three staff, only two were working the counter (Hertz and Dollar are under the same umbrella). I understand their loyalty to gold members but they kept moving them to the front of the line as they would arrive which made the line nearly not move at all. I honestly wouldn't have been so bothered by it if the staff members had some hustle and acknowledged the crazy-long line. None of the other counters seemed to have this issue. Making a mental note for next time...

    Dollar counter is empty???

    Turns out, when you have a reservation for a car at Dollar, nobody shows up to work that day, and everyone has to wait in the Hertz line. They should just put it in their ads: "Our prices are marginally cheaper because we have no employees and we make you wait for someone else to help you!" I'll be pleasantly surprised if I actually get a car and make it to the wedding. To be continued...

    Horrible mysogynist employee don't let him help you

    Pretty bad pick-up experience here…read more What should've been quick took over an hour. I got a text that I could check-out online and skip the line - so, when we arrived we saw a sign that said if you're Hertz rewards to go downstairs (via elevator) to their window - which we did. I was then told that if you use the text it takes you out of their system and I had to go back upstairs. So, we had to take the elevator again and when we got up there, now there were 5 people in line. When I got up to the counter, I was told I should be able to go downstairs and they'd take care of me. I refused and so then they "upgraded" me complementary and I ended up with a HUGE SUV which is not what I wanted to drive around (gas and also parking issues) so I had to go back to the window and ask them to put me in the rental I actually booked. It took over an hour - as mentioned - and it was stressful and not at all the Hertz experience I'm used to. If this location doesn't offer the text check-out then they should notify Hertz to discontinue that for people picking up here. Drop-off was a bit easier and went smoother than expected - I showed up earlier expecting it to not be fast but it was like other airports and it is nice that it's so close to the ticketing area (directly across the street).

    We are Hertz President Circle members and travel quite a bit. I have never had a worse experience…read more Car was reserved. No president Circle pick up available because of being short staffed. Waited over an hour in line to be told it would be another hour for a car to be cleaned for us. Horrible. The other rental companies at airport did not have lines.

Returning the car is another story altogether. Have been overcharged, charged for gas even when returning with a full tank, personnel non-existent. At least they are consistent . Spend a few dollars more and rent elsewhere.

    WHAT A SCAM OF A COMPANY. The workers here are cheats, who must be working under a corporate…read moreincentivisation program to wring as much money out of customers as possible. This feels very much like what Wells Fargo was caught doing. I was with my senior father when he asked for NO insurance. Signed a contract that (we thought) said NO insurance. They didn't give us a copy of the contract when we left, which we should have asked for but my father and I were so jet lagged from our red-eye that we just wanted to get in the car and leave. When the trip was over, we were charged insurance and Budget said that we signed for it, without giving us proof of the contract. We also discovered that they didn't give us a full tank of gas. It was at 1/4 tank. Like we said, we left the space already before we realized it, but immediately took pictures of the gas tank and odometer, like 5 minutes from the airport. We called Budget to let them know and they said that we needed to file a report with Budget online. Fine. BUT when returned the car to this company, we told the attendant that we had pictures and stuff about the unfilled gas tank... After checking that we returned it with a full gas tank, the attendants told us that they were going to give us a $50 credit for the gas. We said, oh that's nice, do we go to the desk and get that credited back? They told us, oh no, it will just show up on your statement at the end. So we left and did nothing... BIG MISTAKE. Fast forward to getting the statement and not getting ANY MONEY BACK. My father called Budget only to hear that they don't have any record of the attendant offering this and thus cannot give the credit back. We're going to dispute the insurance charges via our credit card, and make sure Budget headquarters knows about our experience. And we WILL be filing a claim via their website about the 1/4 tank. Rent from anyone else but Budget. It felt like they purposefully did all this because my father is a senior citizen (he rented the car and was handling things) and thought that he wouldn't dispute the charges because he wouldn't know how or have the energy to. Well, they are very wrong. IF this is a corporate level scam...
