The drop-off attendant delayed my arrival at the airport because of his vehicle inspection. He insisted the front bumper was loose and in need of repair, but provided no proof that any evidence of pre-inspection or damage occurred. After conversing with his manager. I was allowed to leave and shuttled to airport. His behavior is a poor example of how to treat customers in a competitive space that utlize his company service as a convenience. Next time i will consider using a global brand instead of a local company.

I had major trouble getting hold of customer service. Every number I called was out of service. I couldn’t get the car on time and kayak charged me anyway.
Kayak was stolen is a scam. They sold me an insurance for 77 dollars that does not accept payles. they made me rebook and pay again. and they told me that reservations are made directly on the payless or avis page, not with you. In the reservation I put that I would pick up the car on Sunday and I called the numbers that appear for Payles on different occasions on Sunday and no one answered and it appears on the web that they are not open on Sundays. For this reason I went on Monday to pick up the car and they did not accept me, they accepted the reservation and the girl who attended me was clear in telling me that your insurance does not accept it but that I had to buy insurance with them and that the next reservations did direct with payles and not with you. and that insurance did not work for me.
The service at pick up was great! LUCIA was super kind and explained everything well and she really helped us with finding a baby seat as her colleague had not added it to my reservation back in October (I picked up car in December). Car was almost new, great small car. I had booked via Expedia, they did not show all info regarding deposit amount and insurance costs, if you book there is a 1500$ DEPOSIT and you MUST take an insurance on location; the lower the insurance the higher the deposit.
