My old Ford lost power on the highway on my way to Portsmouth NH, packed to vend a 2 day art market. For safety's sake, after leaving my SUV at the mechanics, I decided to rent a car for the trip last Memorial Day (I just realized I hadn't posted this review last year). Coming back late Sunday night I got screwed into keeping said rental car until Tuesday. I had to work and couldn't get on the road to head up there until 4:45pm. After getting stuck in rush hour traffic, behind accidents and construction, I'm in zero motion on Main Street, I call Enterprise...a generic reservation number came up, I was driving, that's what I called. Ask them to connect me, I am literally 1.5 miles away, WAIT FOR ME, do not close! They assured me they would contact the Glastonbury office. At this point its 5:40pm. I get to Enterprise at 5:54, who close at 6:00pm. The office lights are off, the 3 employees there all have their jackets on. I pull up, I see them put the lights back on, laugh at each other and comment. I walk in and ask if they were told to wait, I called. They all 3 looked at me and said no, no one called! I am RUSHED through the return process. I KNOW I had MY car (and house) keys on me. I ask them to drive me the .2 miles back to MY car at the (now also closed) mechanic. I get out, the kid pulls away in my former rental car, and I realize I am missing my big set of keys!! I wave but he's already gone around the corner! I call the office, it is barely 6:05pm-and their answering machine is on!! I call the main Enterprise again, tell them the story, ask them to reach out to a manager of the store (its barely 6:15 now). They say no, this branch is privately owned, no one can help, sorry you're stranded an hour from home with NO public transportation in that town to get you home. I call a local cab company: $150 to drive me home. I call my AAA: they will only come rescue me IF they towed my car there...which they did not. A friend had to drive an hour out of there way to rescue me.
However, Enterprise in Milford, helped me out with coordinating a rental car at the cost of the Glastonbury Enterprise, You think if one of 3 brilliant minds working in Glastonbury would have seen this big tangle of keys (I put big key rings on so I find them easily!) when they then rented out the vehicle I drove to go to Portsmouth to another customer-he is the one who found my keys on the passenger side floor! Do NOT rent a car from Enterprise in Glastonbury CT!!!!!!! read more
