They closed before my flight landed, so I didn't get my reservation. Had to pay more to use a different company because of this. It cost me about $150 more with the other company, so now I'm out money because they closed when they still had a reservation and flights still to land.

The pickup was awful. After we checked in we were told there were no vans by an employee. Then we were told they had one but it was dirty and at another area. I was told it was being cleaned for us but then 10 minutes later the gentleman who was supposed to be cleaning the vehicle walked out of the building to go clean it. We were on a schedule and didn’t get the van til over an hour after our scheduled time. Nobody there seemed to care and we were never offered any other option other than waiting

Reserved my rental car early in the morning and drove 45 miles to the airport to pick up and they told me I couldn’t pick up same day and that I could come back tomorrow. If I couldn’t pick up the same day then they should not have allowed me to reserve the car.

Huge line for pickup at MEM. Location was understaffed. Team there was working very hard, but closed while passengers were arriving late. Rental car was filthy -- likely no time for staff to clean it. Dropoff at BHM was very easy. It seems like Hertz needs to increase/lengthen its staffing model at MEM.

Easy pickup, new, clean, comfortable vehicle. Seamless, efficient, fast return.
First, I paid for the car via Kayak. When I showed up to pick it up, I was told that third parties like Kayak had overbooked and there were no cars available. This left a lot of people stranded at the airport scrambling to try and find a car with another service. I would not suggest anyone use this if you want something guaranteed when you pay for it.

They don't honor same day reservations. So I make a reservation with Kayak, only to get to the Thrifty counter and find out they wouldn't honor it. I had to go to Alamo and ended paying $170 more than I was quoted for Thrifty. Poor experience.

Got to thrifty desk - no one in attendance -told by other customers that there was a 2 1/2 wait and no guarantee of a car. Cannot understand how you can book a car and then when you arrive no-one to serve you and then no avenue to cancel or contact the hirer. Will never use this service again. Totally the worst customer service I have ever used.

I booked with another rental car company. I arrived at 9 PM to find 16 other customers waiting for cars that they had reservations for. I immediately booked a car with Alamo, picked it up and was on my way in about 15 minutes. Thank you so much for saving the day.
I made the reservation but when I arrived at the counter the agent said they didn’t have any cars. This is terrible service

When we arrived at the Memphis Airport at 0900 with a reservation, we expected to get a vehicle fairly quick. However we ended up waiting for 1 hour and 45 minutes. The lady working appeared to be disinterested with anyones concerns and refused to offer any help. In the meantime I walked to the second floor and saw several vehicles available that were being held for Avis Preferred and were still in the lot when we finally received our car almost two hours later.

We arrived at 7:00 to pick up a car we reserved at Memphis airport. When we arrived we were told (unapologetically) that there were no cars available, that there was a waitlist 20 families long and that we would get a car as each car came in and they worked down the waitlist. They were flippant about the fact that there were no cars available and when I asked why, her comment was, “they overbook”. We waited about 1.5 hours for a car. We ran into a family that got there around 7:45 and they had the unfortunate luck to not get a car till midnight. Apparently, people that came in after them were turned away at night, carless. Shame on Avis for overbooking!

Final charge was double original quote because of different fees.
Horrible. Locally owned horrible business. You can’t use a debt card to pay as stated online, they don’t recognize the insurance offered through kayak companies, didn’t have a vehicle ready at said location. I watched 10-15 people go through the line to get a car and maybe TWO actually received a vehicle and it was not with ease at that. Every person had an issue at the counter and the majority never got a car. Don’t waste your time or money. Tried two other services despite calling to verify they #1 had a vehicle type I was needing and #2 accepted a debt. After the third rental service I found an Enterprise care rental that suited all my needs except for it being 4 towns away. It would have almost been better to hitchhike.

When I arrived, one person was available to assist. She instructed me to wait for someone else. Then she asked for my drivers license and started the process. She kept her window closed, requiring me to speak from an open window at the other end of the booth. When the second attendant appeared, I moved down and spoke through the glass that she opened briefly. Next, I was ask to quickly fill out documents and handed the keys and my receipt. I located the car and noted scratches on it. To avoid responsibility, I ask for a pre- inspection document noting the damage. She said that she forgot to tell me I could address that with the attendant on the way out. In sum, the communication was not acceptable. When I returned the car, there were at least 20 parked in front of my car. There was no attendant to check me in, provide a post inspection clearance, and confirm the car had a full tank of gas. Somewhere signs posted to leave the keys in the car, but I did not see one when I drove in. So, I walked to the booth and waited in line for at least 10-15 minutes to inquire about the return protocol, but I had to wait as the attendant had to let two people out with rental cars. She then told me I had to leave keys and that the vehicle would be checked in later. This disconcerting given the liability you assume in renting a car. So in sum, this was a mediocre experience at best. This location needs more people with communication skills who prioritize customer service.
