I accidentally left my work phone in my rental car and immediately submitted a lost item claim through the website as required, specifically requesting to be contacted. Claudette messaged me the very next day to confirm they had it, and Donte followed up with a call to let me know it was found! Since it was a work phone containing vital information that I needed for the next business day, their speed and coordination were lifesavers. They were able to get the phone back to me quickly, and I truly wish I had their last names to share with corporate. They deserve formal recognition for this level of care it's not something you see every day. Thank you, National Team!

I got to the car at about 10:45. Perfect. Con: I go to check out. The lady at the check out asked if I got a paper. I said, no i got the aforementioned text to go choose a car in zone 2. She took the keys and my license and checked me out. She couldn't print a contract or email it, so I had no proof that I legally had the car. She said, "I wouldn't open the gate if your couldn't legally have it." But I kind of need proof of anything does happen. I didn't get an email like she said I would. So she told me to go back into returns. Go stand in line and talk to someone to get the contract. After I got into the returns area, I got the text to check the car out with the system. Which has happened at other locations, but other places could email me the contract. Inefficient. If I didn't have to use budget sometimes for work, I would not.

I returned my rental vehicle to the Hertz location at Houston George Bush Intercontinental Airport…read more(IAH) on June 9 at approximately 6:00 a.m. While I was on my flight back to Charlotte, I realized I had accidentally left a small front-pocket EDC wallet containing about $80 in cash, a small flashlight, and a pen, in the passenger seat. As soon as I landed in Charlotte, I immediately called the Hertz IAH location. I was told to file an online lost-and-found report, which I completed right away. From that point on, the customer service was nonexistent. Over the next several days, I attempted to call the IAH location approximately 25 times. Every time I selected the option to speak with someone, the call disconnected. I also contacted Hertz through online chat and was told that only the airport location could help me--but there was no way to actually reach anyone there. For more than three weeks, I received absolutely no communication. Then, on July 1, I received a generic email from a no-reply address with no contact information simply stating that my items had not been found. I understand that people sometimes leave items behind and that not every lost item is recovered. However, I find it very difficult to believe that a wallet left in the front passenger seat of a vehicle was never discovered during the normal cleaning and preparation of that car for its next rental. Hertz knew exactly who rented and returned the vehicle, yet there was no meaningful communication, no investigation that was shared with me, and no way to speak with anyone at the local office. Whether my wallet was overlooked, mishandled, or never properly processed through the lost-and-found system, the result is the same: an unacceptable lack of integrity and accountability, and horrible customer service. After this experience, I have lost confidence in Hertz and will take my business elsewhere.

She welcomed me with a smile and even went out of her way to greet my daughter and niece. We had a great conversation, and she took the time to explain the different insurance options in a way that made sense. We also discussed possible upgrade options, although we decided to stay with our original selection, a BMW X3. The checkout process was smooth and easy. Emma showed us where our car was located and even gave us breakfast recommendations. The keys were already in the car and ready to go. The gentleman at the gate was also very nice and made the final step of the process simple. I made my reservation and booking through the app, and so far, the rental experience has been a great success. Overall, this was an excellent and stress-free experience!

The vehicle class was downgraded, but I did not receive any price adjustment or refund for the downgrade. After returning the car, I later received a damage claim. I disputed it and provided my rental details and evidence. SIXT eventually reviewed the case and closed it without any further claim against me, which I appreciate. However, the rental experience was stressful because of the vehicle change, no refund for the downgrade, and the later damage dispute. I recommend customers take full photos and videos at pickup and return, and make sure any vehicle change or price adjustment is documented in writing. Be careful with SIXT Rent a Car

On January 16, 2025 7:45 PM in Houston, Texas, IAH Airport the rental agent advised me that I must…read morepurchase the toll program at $14.99 per day, resulting in a total charge of $38.31 to my credit card. The agent stated that if I did not purchase this option, I would incur toll charges of approximately $15 each time I passed through a toll. Before agreeing to this charge, I clearly explained my travel plans in detail and showed the agent my GPS route. My travel consisted only of driving from the airport to my hotel in Katy, very limited local driving near the hotel (with most destinations within walking distance), and returning to the airport on Sunday. Despite reviewing my route, the agent strongly insisted that I purchase the toll package and warned that I would pay significantly more without it. Based on this representation, I agreed. In reality, I only passed through two tolls, each clearly posted at $1.50 for two-axle vehicles. Even accounting for the return trip, the total toll cost would be approximately $6.00 (four tolls total). This amount is far less than the $38.31 charged and confirms that the information provided to me was inaccurate and misleading. I am also concerned that this interaction reflects sales pressure to purchase unnecessary add-on services rather than transparent customer guidance. After researching this issue on the Better Business Bureau website, Yelp, Google Reviews, and your company's own customer reviews, I found numerous complaints describing the same experience customers being pressured into purchasing toll packages and other add-ons that were not needed. This appears to be an ongoing and recurring issue rather than an isolated incident. Very disappointed
