    Horrible customer service!! We seriously just walked out. Why working in customer service when you clearly hate it.

    TLDNR: There's an enterprise about a mile away with excellent customer service…read more I needed a rental car because my vehicle was in the shop. I was able to make the reservation online and received a confirmation to pick up the vehicle about a half mile from my house. I arrived at the site to find one customer in the lobby and nobody around to help out. I walked back towards the offices, where I found all the doors closed. About five minutes later person working came into the front door and upon seeing me gave me the head nod but didn't say anything. I actually found this funny as it was so out of character for any customer service. After I greeted him, he asked me what I needed. I handed him my license and the confirmation number and after a couple minutes was informed that they did not have any vehicles on hand. He referred me to the Mountain View location and I asked him if they could give me their number or put me in contact with them. He told me I could look it up online. literally no personality, no customer support, and it seemed like being at work was the last place this guy wanted to be. I went back into the Hertz website to try to get some help from them. After working through all the automated messages, I still could not connect with a human being at the Mountain View location either. At that point, I did another search and was happy to find an Enterprise which was a mile away. That was a five star experience!

    Every time I have tried to book with them there is some kind of problem. If you don't have cars…read moreavailable you need to make sure people can't book cars, this is a scam.

    Just finished my year lease with Smart Lease. Fantastic experience from start to finish. The car…read moreworked perfectly without a single issue. I would do again.

    I rented a car from Smartlease for 6 months while being a college student in the bay area. For a…read morebusiness that is geared towards "helping out" young professionals and students (people who are often new to car rentals, car ownership, and car insurance), I'm surprised at the consequences I faced for this lease. I'm deeply disappointed in this experience: one that was marketed as low-frills and economical and how Mohamad was polite and reasonable until the time for the car return came. I understand the pressure of our current economy, but cannot condone taking advantage and emotionally manipulating the exact group of customers that would vulnerable to this. The cars at Smartlease are old and delicate and any minor scuffs or scratches that inevitably happen during your lease are not considered "normal wear and tear." If you are looking to rent from Smartlease, you'd hope you can keep the condition of the car 100% perfect or you would have to pay thousands of dollars in damages out-of-pocket (that amount to over 25% of the rental car's value) or pay deductibles through your insurance which significantly increases your premium for years. In my case, I got trapped in Clause 19 of the lease agreement: "If you have not had the repairs made before the Vehicle is returned at the scheduled end of this lease, you will pay the estimated costs of such repairs, even if the repairs are not made prior to Holder's sale of the Vehicle." I had returned the car already, so Mohamad proxied for me at an auto shop (he told me last minute that there were repairs to be made). He gave me the quote that the auto shop deemed, a quote that was much higher than if I had looked to repair these myself (especially since for some damages, I wouldn't have repaired if it were my own car). Then when I asked for a receipt from the auto shop to make sure my money was actually going towards repairing the car, he sent me Clause 19, making clear that it wouldn't be. Instead, the money would be pocketed by Smartlease. This money is equivalent to the price to rent this particular car for 5 more months, nearly as long as I had the car for. As a student, it was difficult for me to find the funds to pay for the upcharged cost and it caused me a great deal of worry. I felt absolutely exploited. In the final communications with him about the repairs, he gaslighted me and would often say that he's been in this industry for a long time, so these processes are industry standard. He used his position of power, knowing I am a student and have little experience, though I can research and have parents and friends who have more experience with cars to validate his claims. When I asked if I could go to the auto shop with him, so we could speak in person and I could be part of the conversation with the auto shop, he called my request weird and unheard of. He said that it's difficult for a first-timer to speak to an auto shop, implying that I don't know how to speak to an auto shop, then threatened that if I wanted to meet him at the auto shop, he doesn't want to come; instead, I would have to handle all of this by myself. But at that time, I was flying home in a week since school had ended and I still needed a proxy. Ultimately, he did not speak to me kindly. The amount of money I have spent for this lease in total could have bought a used car of similar value to the car I had rented. But if I had chosen to buy a used car, I could have resold it.  If you still want to make a short term car lease, I would strongly recommend to avoid Smartlease and the financial, emotional, and temporal cost and search somewhere else.

I asked to…read morespeak to a manager, not to complain but to further explain my situation and he refused, even said "My manager doesn't want to speak to you" and then even said to me "I'm busy! I have customers here" .He ran my credit remotely, told me I was approved but refused to tell me the terms of my approval. I explained I didn't want to drive over an hour to not favorable terms and waste his time or mine, if he could just give me a ballpark, I could come in and finalize. To this day is been a week with 0 returned call or email. Keep in mind ALLAN CALLED ME!! I started my process online and then he told me "we don't do online, that's a Covid thing". LIES! Hertz car sales advertises a full online process which I completed later with a different location. If I could give this location a 0 starts I would. This is not the job for him, and should consider that selling cars is a matter of customer service and satisfaction. Truly a mess. DO NOT GO HERE and if you do avoid *UPDATE* 30 mins after leaving this review. Allan called me and said the following. And I quote "I'm calling to put you in your place! Your credit sucks! and you're unrealistic" I then explained that everything I inquired for was reasonably accomplished at another location. he also said how dare I purchase at another location. I took a train 2 hours away!!! Because the service I was getting there was AMAZING and nothing close to how he was treating me. Unbelievable. If you Don't want a bad review, don't treat people like scum
