This place is joke. They are constantly cancelling reservations 1 day before, claiming that they…read moreare over booked. You should not have a reservation system that allows booking if you didn't have inventory. People make plans and that can't be cancelled sometimes. Lots of wasted time and money. Save yourself the headache and avoid these people

Absolutely horrible experience. I created my first Yelp account just to review this) and I would…read morerate this a 0-star if I could. I had reserved a standard car a month in advance. Literally the day before I was meant to pick up my reservation, the agent called me to tell me that my reservation will be cancelled because they have no cars and can't find any other cars at other locations. When asked about my options and how they will remedy this problem, they said that they have no information and I'll have to call customer service. Apparently I'm just expected to find a different solution (the only other cars available in Toronto were twice the price of my original reservation) or cancel my travel plans. I called customer service and after getting the run around, finally spoke to a customer service rep who informed me that this is "standard business process" and that this is much better than showing up to the location only to find out there is no car available (while factually true, that is neither helpful nor does it justify your shady business practices). They said that since the reservation never happened (because Thrifty cancelled on me) there was nothing they could do about compensation or reimbursement for my inconvenience. Obviously dissatisfied, I asked to escalate this to their manager as this is unacceptable and I refuse to accept that this is how they treat their customers (spoiler alert: I was wrong). The manager repeated the same BS story that this is their process and there was nothing they could do about it other that offer their apologies. I couldn't accept this solution and told him the industry best practice would be to either A) provide me an upgraded reservation for a different car, B) find a car at a different location or affiliated rental company, C) reserve a car at a different competitor company, or D) provide compensation by way of a future discount or voucher. The manager eventually caved and said that the best he could do was provide a $30 voucher but I would need a US address to mail the voucher to... Again not the least bit helpful as I live in Toronto in CANADA. Also $30 off is of zero value to me when the next cheapest rental available would cost me $200+ more than my original reservation. I told the manager that this is unacceptable and provides me zero confidence to ever book through Thrifty again and I have the right mind to dissuade my family, friends and any other prospective renters out there to avoid Thrifty at all costs. I asked to escalate this to their manager and they said that they were the highest person of authority so I would have to write to head office (which I will be doing shortly). All that to say, avoid avoid avoid Thrifty if you want your reservation to be fulfilled. If you like being disappointed and having to cancel your travel plans at the last minute, then by all means, this is the place for you. Enjoy your cancellation! After reading all of the reviews, it appears that this is a common theme (or "standard business process") for Thrifty. I was a fool for not heeding these warnings but let my/our mistakes be your lesson learnt. AVOID THRIFTY CAR RENTAL AT ALL COST!
