They did not have a car for my reservation at noon. Was told they likely would within 30 min so I suggested I go to lunch then come back. When I returned was told it could be another hour, but they could not guarantee it, it might be longer because some other employee needed to go to lunch, and blah blah blah. So did not rent a car.

Awful experience… one of the drivers forgot their license… Enterprise said no problem, just go to any enterprise location and add the driver… several hours and two locations later no results. We had picked it up from the airport which was 30 miles away but if we were told only airport location could add drivers then we would have just gone back to it. Also, we’re told someone would call us if any issues. When we didn’t hear and called, we’re to had to go to airport. We get there next morning, delaying our trip by another few hours, only to be told it had been done already the day before. What a royal mess. They did offer to waive 15$ fee to add a driver though!!!

Takes way to long to get the car. It should be simple, you are just renting a car. Then, why do people stand at the counter for 20 minutes? What are they doing? What is so complicated? It usually takes me no more than 5 minutes. Are they getting restaurant recommendations? Are they getting stock tips? Are they confessing their sins? I doin't understand. Just give them your DL and CC, take the keys or location and GO!

When we arrived there were no cars, we waited over an hour and after three failed attempts on their part to give me a car that wasn’t there we finally rolled away but the car was making a rattling noise and the leather was ripped in the seat. Their costumer service was horrific that day, with passengers just waiting for cars that weren’t there.

Liked nothing. I didnt even got the car because they closed the store and left even when i spoke to themmon phone 2 times. I went 2 hours before the reservation time still they were closed. My trip got cancelled coz of this. I would never book from hertz again.

When the customer has already spoken to you on phone and you asked them to come early before the reservation time and of they are 2 minutes late you should atleast inform them that you are all sold out and wont be able to give a car.

After being stranded in the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport for 2 days I finally got a reservation for a rental car. This was my only way to get home to Oregon. 15 minutes later I get a phone call from the rental center telling me that they have over booked, and I don't have a car. I WILL NEVER TRY TO RENT, OR RECOMMEND HERTZ AGAIN

Car was fine and people at the Hertz location were nice, but no airport shuttle and no reciprocal agreement with the Airport location. Weird!!!

I was expecting to get on the usual Hertz shuttle and take me to their airport location. When I got to the Hertz office there, they told me my reservation was at a different office... about 8 miles away. I had to take an Uber to get there. Once there, I found out I could not return the car to the airport location... made no sense. I should have looked closer at the location, but who does that when booking flights and rental cars. Also, they do not accept 3rd party insurance even if you pre-pay. I will not book through an outside vendor again. Two Uber rides doubled the price of my rental!!! VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!

When I got to Dollar Counter in Dallas. After standing in Line for an hour ….a lady announced that the cars were taking an hour and a half to come down from cleaning to be picked up. She then advised us an hour later that if our reservation was booked on the 24TH that it would not be honored. I booked at 1am in Denver on the 24TH. It was 3pm when she said this. Absolutely the most inefficient car rental that I have ever experienced. Fortunately National car rental was able to get me into a car.

Verbal declined every add-on, including LDW, but they charged me for it when I returned the car. I have my own full insurance and never accept LWD or any other coverage. The LDW charge was more than the actual rental. This is an absolute scam and probably a deceptive trade practice.

I reserved a mid sized car. Company did not have one available upon arrival. I guess they don’t understand how a reservation works. They gave us a SUV which ended up costing us more money in gas. The car was filthy inside and out. Three hours into our vacation we received a call from home telling us my mother in law was in grave condition. After making arrangements to return home on the next available flight, I contacted Dollar to inform them I would be returning the car at 4am the following morning. I was told that would not be a problem. I had the car for 16 hours and was charged for entire weeks rental. No offer of any kind of credit for future rental. When I arrived at 4am to return the car, the company was not yet open. We had to return the car to the Hertz rental company down the road and take their shuttle to the terminal. We were not made aware of this the day before when making the arrangements to return the car. Considering the reason for our early return, emotions were high and nerves were short. A heads up as to what to expect would have alleviated some unnecessary stress. The airline and hotel were more than accommodating considering our situation. Dollar, however, was not. I would not rent a car from them in the future if it were free. Dollar needs to see and treat their customers as human beings and not just another fare.

I thought that I was renting a car at Avis and the DFW airport because that is where I flew in to. But when I got to my the Avis counter they told me my rental was for one of the suburbs 40 miles away! I was able to get a car at DFW but t had to pay nearly double the price! I will shop around a little bit more next time. It really aggravated me

Upon arrival, the vehicle I had reserved wasn’t available. The substitute vehicle was backed into a guard rail by the Avis employees with damage to the rear bumper, but still on the line to rent. I was given a third vehicle to take that had no damage but kept chiming that “oil change required”. The windshield and mirrors were so dirty, you could hardly see out of them. Overall, I wasn’t impressed and likely will not use Avis in the future.

Give the gentleman working at the Avis near the Adolphus hotel in Dallas (1303 commerce) on 12/27 a raise. His unswerving professionalism while being yelled at by frustrated customers who had been stranded by southwest was unbelievable. He was so efficient, honest with customers about wait times, while still striving to help everyone possible, and generally good natured while the people he was serving were uncharacteristically unkind. He deserves a raise, a promotion, and Avis should hope they don’t lose him. I cannot imagine having the patience to handle that many ridiculous people with the level of grace he did.

By the time I opted for full liability, toll coverage, and prepaid fuel, I spent $220 per day for a car rental. It was lovely to receive an upgrade to a Ford Mustang; notwithstanding, I found myself flabbergasted by the next cost: $441 for 48 hours of a car rental. Post Script: I didn’t receive specific directions or an address for the car rental return address. This oversight delayed my travel time unduly.
