Hello, I have rented a car from them in December. Everything was fine with it. However, when we returned it we were told we have an outstanding fine of approx. 170 AED. We have disputed this fine on the fact that we didn’t find any paper on the car and most importantly, we were in Dubai on that day; so obviously it was an error from the system. The lady understood all that and she didn’t charge us. 3 days after we returned to the UK I was charge by Thrifty for that fine, a fine that we disputed already, a fine that we don’t even know if existed as no paper was shown to us…. It is just bad customer service…

They never rented the car to us! They wanted $200 as drop fee. That price was never mentioned during booking and neither was it in the confirmation email. I had booked it specifically for pick up in Abudhabi and drop off in Dubai. Wasted time and very aggravating to not have correct cost communicated upfront

Out of the way, lots of up-charges, and little customer service. There is an unmentioned credit-card deposit that was supposed to be returned in two weeks (no reason given for the excessive length of time), but I had to call to have it returned. Car was fine, but I won’t use Payless again.
