    Nissan Armada rental
    Wendy L.

    After a long flight from California, I finally arrived to Norfolk International Airport (ORF). From baggage claim, it's a short walk to the rental counters. Enterprise Rent-A-Car (ERAC) is at the very end. I was greeted by Kayleigh who assisted me with my rental check-in. I rented a large SUV, which I typically do so that I have comfortable luggage and guest room. I've rented many times from ERAC and was familiar with the process. I presented her with my driver's license and credit card. And as soon as I looked at my phone wallet, I noticed 2 of my cards were missing. I panicked and remembered I just had it like 5 minutes ago (I was explaining this to Kayleigh). Long-story short: After 30 minutes of backtracking my footsteps to baggage claim (and every possible place between), I get a call from Kayleigh and said she had my cards! I dropped it at the counter and one of the employees found it. As I was taking to her on the phone, I made my way over to the counter within a minute (I was just by the elevators around the corner) and got my cards back from Kayleigh. Thank you, Kayleigh and the other employee who found it! Now my large SUV was a 2023 Nissan Armada. It was clean inside and had plenty of luggage space for the back row. It drove really nice and had no issues with it. I opted to get prepaid gas so I returned it with whatever gas I had left, which I always like getting because who has time to stop by a gas station when you're rushing to get to the airport?! Returning to the airport was easy too. I just used GoogleMaps to find my way to the airport and followed the signs for RENTAL RETURNS. Overall, I was completely satisfied with my week-long rental and was happy with the customer service from Kayleigh - she went above and beyond. Thanks, Enterprise!

    Picked up a car one night during an emergency. The vehicle was supposed to only be $52, but they charged my card an extra $310 deposit. I'm not understanding why that is the case for a minivan. I could see if it was a more expensive car or something. It wasn't. Anyway, the check in was quick & the rep was friendly. The floor was marked for social distancing & sanitizer was available. He wore a mask & so did I. He sent me to the garage to pick up the van & the other rep there was pretty friendly too. She looked at my contract, gave me the key, and sent me on my way. When I brought the car back the next day, the check out process was just as easy. I didn't have to get gas because the van was still full. I will definitely use them again if I need a vehicle. I just won't be paying that $310 deposit.

    I'm still in shock over how I was treated by your company today. There were a plethora of possibilities to make things better, but the situation only got worse and worse as the day went by. The story begins with the reservation process. I was pleased to find a seven-passenger SUV for only $140 for a two-day rental. During the checkout, I specifically made sure to confirm that I could pay using a debit card. I took a screenshot of the page that led me to believe that I wouldn't have a problem: When I arrived at the counter this afternoon, I was greeted and invited to share my driver's license and form of payment. The moment I produced my debit card, I was informed that I would need a credit card. I pushed back, letting the agent know that I specifically checked on that while making the reservation. He apologized and sent me away. I was irritated and took my driver's license out of his hand without saying anything else. This must've upset the poor boy because after I turned away he quipped, "No need to be snatchy". After leaving I contacted your phone support, hoping to move my reservation to another location so that I could still pick up a vehicle today for my road trip tomorrow. The Filipino woman was polite and helpful, spending at least 10 minutes searching for another location that I could rent from, but ultimately only giving me an option for a minivan priced at over $600 for two days. I told her that this was unacceptable unless I would be reimbursed for the difference. Since this wasn't possible, I informed her that I knew that the airport location that I had reserved from had the vehicle I wanted on-site, but that they wouldn't let me rent it because of the debit card issue. She told me that she would make a note on my reservation that would override that idiotic policy limitation so that I could rent the vehicle. I asked her to stay on the line while I went back to the counter. As I got back to the scene of the first violation, our triggered young man made it obvious that he wasn't going to help me in any way. I asked the support specialist on the phone to explain to him what she had done. He didn't care, "I'm not going to help you since you were so snatchy earlier", he explained. Three other employees just stared me down. I couldn't believe that I was getting treated so horribly, so I walked out again. I asked the phone support to pass me to a manager. I waited for about five minutes to get to an escalation specialist. He spent another 10-15 minutes trying to do the same thing that the first phone specialist did, to no avail. After explaining the situation, I was simply requesting that since there were no other options available outside the airport, to exempt me from the no-debit-card policy. He told me that the only one with the authority to do this was the manager of the location in question. I asked to be connected to him, and he obliged. The manager was calm and listened patiently while I explained the whole situation to him. I fully expected that he would overturn the unacceptable policy so that I could receive the vehicle I had reserved. He did not. I asked if I could get a company credit to rent another vehicle at a different location since everyone was out of my requested seven-passenger SUV. He assured me that he couldn't do it. I asked him how it was possible to rent the same vehicle that he had on-site with the same card I had in-hand from a location only two miles away, but it wasn't possible to do the same from him. His answer was some worthless drivel about corporate policy insurance requirements. After pleading for a few more minutes I realized that this manager reflected well the corporate disdain for us little debit card people that didn't have round-trip airline tickets. I rent vehicles about ten times per year. Sometimes full-size vans for my church. You can be sure that Enterprise and its ilk will not be receiving any more of my money. I hope you drive away all of your customers with this worthless and annoying policy. You can be sure that I'll be leaving negative reviews EVERYWHERE I can find a place to do so, like these: https://goo.gl/maps/JKkpDGhvERp https://www.facebook.com/EnterpriseRentACarNorfolkVA211E/?eid=ARDewCv2KzJ_KtwK56-A2JOg5t8kG25ijpG3BG7hY9KZ6zKoDzBEmf8CiyMpRy5kb4y3ieRW1Yv3qd5L&fref=tag https://twitter.com/adamdragoon/status/1116821249320214531 https://medium.com/@adamdragoon/nightmare-at-enterprise-d9e18a56f9

    I love renting from National, mostly because of their amazing and friendly customer service, but…read morealso because of their Emerald Isle. So, when I got here and learned I needed to go to a counter, but they had a large fleet of cars and this was a larger airport, I wasn't too happy. But the service was very nice. I prefer to look through vehicles rather than having them select for me. In this case, I have top tier status with National and the guy before me with non status (comment was made about it being first time with National) was offered an "upgrade" and given a vehicle I would have chosen from the Executive Emerald Isle. When I get there, I'm offered a Mitsubishi Eclipse. I immediately said "No!" It took him about 5 minutes, but he found me a mid-size SUV, which is all I wanted. They should reserve the "upgrades" (if that was truly an upgrade the previous guy got) for those of us who rent on such a regular basis we're truly entitled to them based on our status. Then when I went to get the vehicle and noticed the size of their fleet, I realized there's no reason this location doesn't offer the Emerald Isle. I rent from many larger airports as well and many many tiny airports and understand why they need to do counter service versus the Emerald Isle, this location shouldn't have counter service. All that being said, the car was great. The service was fine. And I was out pretty quickly. As for National's customer service, one of the most annoying things is when I write a mediocre review like this they post this typical response: "...we would like to know more about your experience. Please visit www.nationalcar.com/en/support/contact-us.html to contact us. Please be ready to provide the rental location, rental agreement or reservation number and your contact information. Thank you." But they make it nearly impossible to contact them, so it's very insincere. If you want to reach out to me, PM me on this site, rather than posting these canned replies.

What Avis did to me over the past two days wasn't just bad service -- it was dishonest, careless, and emotionally devastating. I am a disabled veteran, and because of their incompetence, lies, and refusal to do the right thing, I missed the funeral of one of my closest friends. Here's exactly what happened: I made a reservation for October 1st at 2:00 PM at the airport location. Before I even arrived, Avis had already charged my card for the full amount of the reservation . So when I got there, I was completely blindsided when they suddenly told me I needed to present a credit card to get the car. The only reason I was blindsided is because they had already taken my money -- they were happy to charge me first, but had no problem giving me it back especially after the full amount was already charged and enough on the card for a deposit. Then, the staff told me they can't help and to call the reservation line where they told me another location had another car waiting for me and that they would change my reservation for me . I did not cancel anything -- they changed it themselves and promised I'd be taken care of. Trusting them, I spent money on Uber rides to get to the second location. When I arrived, I found out it was a blatant lie -- there was no car waiting for me, they were actually completely out of cars and this is not even 20 min after getting off the phone with the reservation line. And no one cared. Instead of helping or taking responsibility, they shrugged it off and told me to come back the next morning with my debit card with 300 dollars deposit , assuring me that if I showed up at 8:00 AM, when the store is supposed to open, my car would be ready and waiting. So, I did exactly what they told me. I showed up at 8:00 AM sharp the next morning, expecting my confirmed reservation to finally be honored. But when I got there, the location wasn't even open yet. I had to stand outside and wait for someone to finally show up. When they did, I was told -- yet again -- that there were no cars available, the only option they gave me was wait until someone drops off a car. I waited, still holding onto hope that someone would make this right. After all that waiting and a vehicle finally showed, during check out and running my card AGAIN for a reservation they finally told me I couldn't rent a car at all because I didn't pass a credit check -- a credit check that was never mentioned to me at any point during this entire ordeal. I brought everything that I was told required. By that point, Avis was holding hundreds of dollars of my money, and when I asked for my funds back so I could try to book a last-minute flight or another rental elsewhere, they flat-out refused. I was told I'd have to wait 5-7 business days to get MY OWN MONEY back. I didn't have enough left in my account to make a third reservation or buy a plane ticket. I was stranded. Because of their lies, lack of communication, refusal to return my money, and total mismanagement, I missed my best friend's funeral. That is something I will never get back. Two full days wasted. Hundreds of dollars tied up. Multiple Uber trips paid out of pocket. Hours spent waiting, being misled, and emotionally crushed. Avis didn't just inconvenience me -- they caused real harm at one of the most difficult times of my life. This company is an absolute disgrace. Their management is incompetent, their communication is nonexistent, and their customer service is cold and indifferent. If you're reading this, do not trust Avis with anything important. They'll happily take your money in seconds, lie to your face, and then leave you stranded while they hold onto your funds for a week. Avis didn't just ruin a trip -- they robbed me of the chance to say goodbye to my friend. I will never forget this.

I'm thinking a 7am pick up almost guarantees you a car since that's when they open. Customer service was beyond lacking. I got there around 6:50 and saw employees in the back. I stood in line and know they saw me. Without saying anything (even "hey, we open at 7. Be with you then.), one employee closed the door. It doesn't make you invisible. I know you're in there. At 7:01, the employee comes out and proceeds to start up the screen. There was another customer in front of me and then it was my turn. The only words spoken were commands to get through the rental process. Then I'm handed keys and a location (A-##) and left alone. What does A-## mean? How do I get there? No more information to spare, I start walking and eventually figure it out. Non-existent customer service, rude, and unhelpful. I see why this location has difficulties with satisfying their customers. I gave 2-stars because I did get the vehicle I reserved quickly, which is more than it seems most customers get. ‍

I was only in town (Norfolk, VA) for a few hours. Picked up the car at 1538pm and returned the next morning at 0500 for my 0700 flight. I was charged $255 as they stated this short amount of time was equivalent to two days charges at $100+ dollars a day. I would NEVER rent a car for that much per day and I travel all over the world! I verified at the check-in counter that my miles had taken care of my one day rental and that I was good to go. So being charged outside of my miles, which I also lost, and for TWO days (and I had the car less than 24hrs) is absolutely ridiculous. Also, I used a lot of my points to reserve an SUV, but upon arrival, they didn't have any so I had to settle for a smaller sedan. I will surely let ANY and EVERYONE know to never use Dollar/Hertz for their rental cars again!

None of this was honored, none. I didn't raise a stink because I thought I was getting a good deal yet I was actually told false information. Now, I know it was false and contacted them, to date no reply, nothing at all...crickets! I am highly disappointed in Banister. This is my fifth purchase from Banister, four from Chesapeake and one from Norfolk. This will be my last and will no longer recommend them.
