As the booking process over momondo did not allow the booking of certain extras, e.g. child seat, I had to pay at Avis additional fees. The car I booked was not available and the car I received wasn’t really clean.

They didn't have cars, wait was over two hours. Gave us a much smler vehicle then we had rented but still charged us for the larger one. Refuse to answer any of our emails about fixing the charge. I will be filing a complaint with the BBB when I get home.

Vehicle was not thoroughly cleaned (still had trash in it from previous users). Cracked windshield. Not enough customer service people to service customers in a timely manner (particularly at pickup).
Extremely rude staff. Attempted to rent me a wrecked vehicle and when I denied it said it would be a few hours until another of the same class was available. Check in process no one was there. An AVIS employee said to just leave the keys in the car. No inspection, etc. I travel for a living and this is about my 3rd poor experience with Payless. I will pay more money for better service, shorter lines, and kinder staff. Will not be using this company again

The company knew in advance when we would arrive and what car we needed but when we arrived, we were told the car was not there. Their dispatch was very ineffective and incompetent in having the cars that people had reserved, prepared and ready. They offered us a car in another category, which we didnt want. We were told that we needed to wait for the car category we had reserved And then suddenly the car we wanted became available. There were major inefficiencies, miscommunications, delays with their system. EVERYONE that was there was having a similar experience. The agents were doing their best but the business needs some major reorganization and training. Will not rent from you again.
From getting picked-up at the airport via shuttle ride to dropping-off of the car rental, the entire process was smooth, easy and very professional/friendly. Special shoutout to Mufasa! Our car rental (a red jeep), was very clean both in and outside the car. I can express enough how friendly all of the staff is. They definitely will have a returning customer in me.

The rental was refused from a policy that Kayak never disclosed when booking the rental. I was turn away immediately with no recourse, no refund. I would say awful experience by both companies.

Check in was long. Spots were not clearly marked. I actually put my stuff in the wrong car, then had to walk around the lot for a few minutes to find the right car. The cars horn was really soft (compared to my own car) when hitting the lock button…making finding the car a little more challenging. Otherwise, the car was great, the price was reasonable and the check-in was efficient. I would use Routes again.

I will NEVER rent from Routes again (I rented through the Kayak travel website as a special offer, thinking Routes had to be ethical business to earn Kayak's endorsement. Uh no, Routes is not ethical at all. Kayak got taken in too, I suppose). “Technically," the vehicle worked as expected (despite being out of alignment with poorly inflated tires). But "technically" is the operative word, since that's exactly where they get you. They have all sorts of hidden (and ambiguous) rules in their contracts that are not like other car companies plus you sign on a digital pad so you never even see them before signing. Ironically, one of the things you sign via the digital pad is a statement that reads, " ... by signing below, you agree to the terms and conditions of this agreement, and you acknowledge that you have been given an opportunity to read it before being asked to sign." Nope. I was never given an opportunity to read that statement before signing, nor read anything else. The staff won't tell you all the ways you could get charged or fined after the fact - essentially, if there's not an upcharge opportunity for them at the rental counter, the staff will not tell you any of these hidden rules and just let you suffer at the end. Because guess what? They can charge your card for anything. ANYTHING. I got charged for crossing the state line. Seriously. Despite talking about that possibility at length with the staff at the counter!!! She never said a peep, just smiled in a peculiarly serene way that I now understand to be the smile of a predator. They interpret their rules fiercely to their favor. Because that contract section goes on to read, ".. your signature below allows us to process a separate credit/debit card voucher in your name for all amounts due us" which means they charge any and everything possible to your card without ANY avenue of recourse or customer service resolution. It's impossible to get to a customer service person, they will deny any credit card dispute with STACKS of paper alleging they are correct (even if they are not), and use every trick in the book to bilk you out of money. Yes, it is possible that sometimes, some renters will have a good experience - but most of the time you will be conned, lied to, manipulated, tracked (yes, tracked), fined, anything to make themselves profitable using deception, ambiguity, and omission. Don't risk it. Your $50 rental will end up as a $200 rental and a massive headache.
I could not get a car cause I did not have flight information. I did not need flight information I was trying to drive the car out of state and they would not let me do a one way option.

The customer service was horrible .. no one wanted to help me I asked two people to help me .. both of them told me they were busy and to go find some one else .. I stood there and waited for 15 min .. when the next shuttle came around .. the lady said I can help who’s next. I immediately said something to her and she said , I was busy at the time is there no one there to help you I said no . Still no one helped me .. eventually some one showed up to help me… i told him what happened he just looked at me. So I said ok im going to just let it go. Then they gave me my car , the Car gas tank wasn’t on full and it smelled like smoke , cigarettes . I pulled up to the exit and I told the employee hey this gas tank isn’t on full and the car smells like smoke . He said I will note it that the car smells like smoke and the gas tank you can bring it back on this . i bring the car back , the clerk tells me to leave the keys in the car shuttle would be over there . I get in the shuttle and I goto board my plane . As I’m boarding I checked my email. And i got my receipt . They CHARGED ME A SMOKING FEE FOR $400! … Messing up my credit card and I’m pretty sure it’s going to mess with my credit score . This place is a nightmare . It’s poorly ran and it looks like they hire any one to work there .. the rate was $35 a day and it def shows why

I wish rental car companies would not encourage their employees to engage tired travellers with relentless upselling based on fear mongering. Usually it is for unnecessary insurance. In CO, it is the Chain Law, which requires chains in a heavy snowstorm - regardless of the car - and chains are not permitted by the rental company. Their solutuon is to push for a vastly more expensive SUV that has AWD but still would nkt satisfy the Chain Law. Why not just put snow tires on rental cars for people who are primarily coming ro CO to ski? There is always a line at the rental counter and the upselling may add profit for the rental company, but it makes a simple check in and pick up experience much longer and more frustrating for all customers. It is also disingenous and misleading. People on vacation want to relax and be on their way, not argue with rental employees who have clearly been trained to extend rather than shorten the rental process.

There weren’t any cars available but Thrifty still charged my credit card for insurance. Will not recommend or try snd rent from again.
I hated every moment dealing with National. Upon arrival, the employees at the counter didn’t bother asking us for our reservation information they just turned us and the other clients away. Not only did they sell our reservation, which we had done with more than two months in advance, but they offered no type of solution or assistance to the problem THEY CREATED. Their cavalier responses were “try booking with another company” or “Uber to your destination”. No one in the counter really made an effort to deal with myself or the other clients who were also left screwed over by their poor management and decision making skills. Each and every single one of the employees just dumped the issue to the next until finally they pulled a lame excuse out of their asses as to why they wouldn’t even try to help us. They wanted to hold on to the fact that “it was late at night and they couldn’t do much.” I did take their advice and took my business elsewhere, and the lady at Avis went above and beyond to help me and my group of 17+ get a car to get to our destination. She did not care that it was past 3am and her shift had ended. She did everything she possibly could as a simple customer service associate to help me and my family. Something that EVERY SINGLE ONE of the National employees claimed they could not do because “it wasn’t in their power” I wouldn’t make a reservation with National or it’s affiliates even if my life depended on it. Definitely will tell every single person I know that National is by far the worst company to rent with and the customer service offered at the Denver International Airport location is so poor, that Satan himself would feel offended.

Our flight was delayed and when we got to National to pick up our vehicles (we had 2 different reservations), THEY HAD NONE! It was past 1am and the only thing we were told was "I'm sorry", "there is nothing we can do about it", "go to another rental car place and see if they have anything available". THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND UNPROFESSIONAL; CUSTOMERS DEPEND ON THESE RESERVATIONS WHICH ARE DONE MONTHS IN ADVANCE, TRUSTING THAT NATIONAL WILL HONOR THEM. IT WAS A PARTY OF 17 PEOPLE AND WE WERE STRANDED, IN THE COLD, AT 1AM, WITH NOWHERE TO GO AND NO REAL HELP FROM YOU. WE WILL NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH YOU AND WILL NEVER RECOMMEND YOU TO FRIENDS AND FAMILIES. DO BETTER!!!!!
