    Rented a minivan,  got upgraded... to a car? Alright
    Crystal O.

    I had to laugh- I booked a minivan for my trip out to Washington because my son was moving out to Whidbey Island and I was anticipating needing a bigger vehicle for potential furniture- like a dresser. My instructions were to check in at the desk, but the deck attendant informed me gold status just goes straight to the garage and gave me my parking spot number- which I had to triple check the board in the garage because my car wasn't a minivan, it was a BMW car! That's one heck of an upgrade. And lets be honest- I'll never buy a BMW and this was probably my one and only shot at driving one, so we crammed 3 large suitcases and 2 carry ons into the car and we were off. I told the gate attendant that I was supposed to get a minivan and he asked me - do you really want a minivan over this sportcar??? Bwahahaaaa Car drove nice, has heated seats- but I missed my heated steering wheel. My daughter teased me that I liked my SUV better than the beemer. Oh well. I had fun driving it, My son moved 2 hours north of Seattle and all the driving I did over the week, I still returned the car with 1/3 tank of gas- perk of gold status, you don't have to fill it up before returning it. Returning is even easier- follow the signs, pull into the line of cars being returned, grab your gear and head to the airport shuttle stop. I do enjoy renting through Hertz- I've had some horror story rentals with other companies, so I appreciate the ease that Hertz provides.

    We reserved a Managers special electric vehicle at an awesome rate during Graduation week locally in Seattle. To our surprise JOHN helped us at the 3rd level Check in counter. Customer service 2/5 rating. He was somewhat polite but clearly not appreciative of his job working in customer service. I get it, close to 1 am in the morning and all of a sudden 25 guests come to pickup vehicles. You're tired, so are we. But have some manners and be grateful you have a job. John got us setup with a midsize (the closest I'm size availability based on inventory) no apologies they could not honor there reservation. Meanwhile all but 20ish minutes we waited in the lobby and other guests also returned unhappy with the available options-- limited to a pickup truck ONLY. Going out to the vehicle. A bright candy apple red Hyundai sonata. We see a maintenance guy wondering the garage. Ask for his help. LEONARD (5/5 customer service rating) to the rescue, courteous, patient and friendly. He checks on a few of the noticeable electric cars. Finds one that they can release to us. Leonard gives me the cliffs notes training guide on how to operate our Tesla model Y vehicle. With the help of our second guardian Angel DONNA (another 5/5 customer service rating) We just need to switch our vehicle contract out at the exit, we're good to drive out. DANIEL (5/5 customer service rating) speedy checkout and updated our vehicle contract in seconds we were on our way and driving out of the garage. Daniel wished us well on our journey and thanked us for booking/renting with Hertz. Three amazing humans just doing there job, and exceeding expectations. Please pass on my kind words to their manager, kind, humble hospitality and appreciation for wearing a smile during a late night-early morning rush. They need an accolade and an incentive for going above and beyond the job responsibilities.

    I booked a car with Hertz online and paid in advance with my credit card. When I arrived at the airport rental location, they refused to give me the car because I did not have the same credit card with me. They could not refund me at the counter, but marked on the reservation I did not pick up the car. They also told me to call them for a refund, but they never processed it. I had to rent another car on the spot, which was more expensive and less convenient. I have been trying to get my money back from Hertz for over a month, but they keep giving me the runaround. I have contacted their customer service, their executive support team, and even their Executive Vice President of Global Sales & Customer Experience, Laura Smith, but no one has responded to me or resolved my issue. I feel like they are ignoring me and stealing my money. Hertz is the worst car rental company I have ever dealt with. They are dishonest, unprofessional, and disrespectful. They do not care about their customers or their reputation. They only care about making money at the expense of others. I will never use Hertz again. This is my personal experience, and I urge you to please consider my experience when thinking about using Hertz.

    Stay away from Hertz! I saw they had very bad ratings but didn't think it was really that bad, unfortunately it was!! I made a last minute booking through Expedia, it was confirmed so I went to pick up the car right away. The line was ridiculously long and the service was very slow. After almost an hour of waiting in line, I was told they didn't have any vehicles available cause they were overbooked! Luckily we were able to get a car from a different rental company but we wasted so much time that it just ruined our plans!

But the staff team that works the SeaTac venue was truly seamless. It was Gabe who first assisted me to confirm my paperwork and I think that took less than 10 minutes because I've been able to make the reservation by phone. I want to be really clear that I talked to a human to make the reservation and that made all the difference for me. The online version of it was inefficient and didn't allow me to ask questions and get clarification that I needed so I hope Enterprise continues to allow customers to talk to human Customer Service representatives because not all questions can be answered online. Then I was sent to the next area which involved some trepidation because it was a vast area of garage space but immediately Natalie who was part of Enterprise approached me and took my tentativeness and turned it into confidence. She walked me past several areas and made sure that I was put into a vehicle that suited my concerns. And instead of feeling limited by my selection upstairs I felt I was actually given some options in which car I could land in. That made a tremendous difference. Her welcome was genuine and she was very helpful. So between Gabe and Natalie I had a great car pick up experience. And then I'd like to mention Christian who helped me get out of my car when I returned it 24 hours later. He helped me figure out why I would not get a day return back Despite returning at 12 hours earlier, and he was friendly and very positive about his work. I think he was celebrating a work anniversary actually but I don't remember which one it was. Regardless kudos to Enterprise for having such great staff work with us to make a car pick up and car returns simple and seamless. My only issue now is that I left some keys in the car and I would love to figure out how to get a hold of them. I did email Enterprise but have not heard back. I wonder if there is a more direct route to figuring out Lost and found items?

I've used several different companies before but Enterprise generally has a pretty good rate. My last experience with Enterprise was one of the worst rental experiences I've had. At first, it was nice that they offered the choice of a car to me, and provided some full-size sedan options at no cost for an upgrade. I took a Nissan Altima. As soon as I pulled out of the registration, warnings started going off on my dashboard about low tire pressure. I checked the tire pressure and noticed it was enough to make it to my destination so I didn't pay it any mind. The destination I went to had no service stations nearby, so I e-mailed into Enterprise to ask about the issue. They said I could return the car or pull into a Firestone. It took a few days for me to get to the Firestone but once I did, the technicians took a look and found a deeply embedded nail into the tire that was slowly leaking air. I had attributed the tire pressure fluctuation to the cold weather. They filled the tire back up enough to where I would make it back to the airport. I reported the issue immediately via e-mail and to the manager on site. I'm leaving a 3-star instead of a 1-star because previous experiences have been fine, but this last one was straight up dangerous. Inspect your cars well before taking them out.

The booking process was incredibly smooth, with clear and concise instructions on where and how to pick up the rental upon arrival. When we landed, you do have to take a shuttle there (which the shuttle was already waiting.), the wait time was minimal. The gentleman who assisted me was helpful, polite, and professional. He mentioned available upgrades but did not pressure me when I declined, which I really appreciated. Finding the vehicle after check-in was easy, and another staff member guided us with friendliness and efficiency. The car itself was excellent, spotless, comfortable, and in great condition. I had zero complaints. When my flight was delayed and I needed to extend the rental, the process was just as seamless. I was able to handle everything through my email booking without any confusion or hassle. As someone who isn't very tech-savvy, I found it extremely user-friendly. Returning the car was just as convenient. A staff member was ready and waiting, quickly inspected the vehicle and fuel level, and provided the invoice on the spot. completely hassle-free. I will definitely book with Sixt again and hope to have the same excellent experience. It's rare to find such consistent, high-quality service these days. Thank you! And not to mention, the prices were very reasonable, i was genuinely surprised.

With the wait and the ride, it took us about an hour to just reach Avis where ANOTHER line is waiting for us. After another 30 mins wait, we finally reach the counter where the staff was very rude and demanded my corporate badge for the corporate leisure discount I used. When I couldn't provide it, she demanded to see my most recent paystub and studied it for a good minute when I pulled it up on my phone. This is such an odd ask and invasion of my privacy. Through many years of using corporate leisure codes, I've never had to provide my badges or paystubs. After check in, we got sent downstairs to get the car. Once again total chaos! The lines are mixed in with Budget, and they ran out of cars, so we had to grab anything that's available (not even the class of car we booked). Overall took over 2 hours for car rental. Returning was also chaotic, the return area was overrun by cars and the line waiting is out of the garage. A lot of yelling from the staffs, and there was no official check out process. We gave them the key and that was it.

I wasn't asked a bunch of questions regarding auto insurance and such. I did, however, inquire about upgrading to an SUV. The guy proceeded to list the available cars and told me the additional cost (Mercedes comes out +$20/day). They offer some pretty nice SUV options. If you're like me, a city girl familiar with city roads and not snowy roads, say YES to 4WD/AWD when they offer. Seattle roads are fine. The snowy roads of Vancouver are another story.

    I had a very disappointing experience with Hertz at SeaTac…read more I reserved a vehicle through my credit card rewards program and paid for the entire 8-day rental in advance using points. Upon arrival, there was only one agent serving a long line of customers, resulting in a wait of more than 45 minutes just to reach the counter. At pickup, Hertz placed a $697 charge on my credit card. I was specifically told this was only a security deposit/authorization hold because the rental had already been paid in full. During the rental process, I expressly declined all optional products and services, including damage waivers, insurance coverage, and other add-ons. I also confirmed with the representative that the charge would only be relevant if the vehicle was returned with damage. I returned the vehicle one day early and was advised by the return agent that there would be no additional charges. I was told the rental had been prepaid, the vehicle was returned without issue, and the security deposit would be released in full and I may get additional points back as a result of the early return. A few days later, however, Hertz charged my credit card an additional $372.22. The receipt included charges for damage waiver-related products, concession recovery fees, and associated taxes, items that I had explicitly declined at pickup. I never authorized these charges and was never informed they would be added to my rental. I was told both at pickup and return that no additional charges would apply. As a result, I now have to spend time disputing the charges with my credit card company. Based on my experience, I found the rental process confusing, the communication inconsistent, and the post-rental billing practices frustrating. What should have been a simple prepaid rental redeemed with rewards points has turned into an unnecessary and time-consuming dispute.
