Very new and clean car. Smooth administration. Just perfect.

At the drop-off we had to give the keys to a guy in the car park with a little thrifty sticker on his shirt. We did not get any confirmation that we gave the car back nor that is was still in perfect conditions. It felt a bit weird afterward that we had nothing in your hands to proof that we brought the car back without any damage.

The car was large enough for my needs.

The price given to me online was not the price I was charged for and when I called the 800 number, the customer service office was closed. I feel I was charged more money because I was in a rush to catch my flight- Poor business practice by Budget. When I picked up the car, the service representatives had me sign that the car was not damaged before even receiving the keys. I asked if there was damage, could I come back and fill out the form to reflect that, and they said "yes"... but the second I received my keys they shut the gates and left for the day. I asked why the price on the document they gave me was different than what I received online and they told me I'd only be charged the additional amount if I returned the car with less than a full tank of gas. The car was returned full and I was still charged more money than quoted online.

Clean ride

When other rental car companies quoted me it was an all inclusive cost, it wasn't clearly noted that the car was a manual and the price didn't include insurance. So when I actually picked up the car they gouged me on both of those and the quotes price was more than doubled. I had somewhere to be and didn't have much of a choice. Feel like they knew that and really took advantage with the price.

Poor|Dec 2023

The car was rented through a online website, called Kayak who then took me to a reantalcars.com site where the final booking was made. The vehicle was advertised at $68 but his turned out to be $68 US more expensive the NZ currency and I was not aware the site was quoting US dollars for people who lived in NZ, which I do. I was then prompted to pay for insurance, at $37 USD approx, I note on the insurance document that the cover was for $73,200.00 USD. When I have rented before the insurance is normally about $30 NZD. I am concerned that I have been charged insurance for the vehicle value in US Dollars ie $73,200 when the vehicle value was in fact $73,200 NZ and the insurance more expensive than required to cover that vehicle. Is something Hertz does to increase revenue, I feel I have been overcharged and it is likely that other people renting through this site have also been overcharged for insurance in this instance. I would like Hertz to formerly acknowledge this incident and to contact me to address this matter. dean.drever@fiziks.co.nz

staffs needs more training, they gave me wrong information caused me waisted 1.5 hours and extra Uber ride between 2 drop off locations.

The online disclosure were not clare. I booked one way trip from Auckland to Christchurch for total 7 days. The disclosure shows I can take the rental car from north island to south island by ferry. However, I was told I can not take the car on ferry when I got to counter picking up the car...

My reservation was never found by dollar when we arrived. Had to rebook the reservation and it delayed us 2 hours. Not dollars fault. It was kayaks. Jazz at Dollar was very accommodating and helped us get a car.
