People were nice. Drop off and shuttle was easy. Shuttle at the airport sucked and just ubered instructions were very unclear about going to the orange section. Bait and switched with the price got 150$ online and it ended up being nearly 500$ with taxes, tolls and insurance. Next time I’ll go with a different company. Also started my rental off with a half tank of gas instead of a full tank.

Took over 2 hours for a shuttle from the airport. Then the rental car wasn’t ready because ‘I was late’. This place is a joke——save your time and sanity and use Enterprise

Hiding fees are completely unacceptable from the $210 that I was going to pay went up to $500.

an absolutely horrible experience. i booked the car online, the price significantly changed when a came to pick up the car, it was night time, so I didn’t have any other options, but renting the car on the new conditions. and that isn’t the worst part, because this is something that I agreed for and signed, at least. the worst part followed after the drop off - I passed the car to the staff member, and was talked by him that I’ll get back the deposit in full in a couple of days. instead of $250 deposit return I only received $155. I called the company, they emailed me a new receipt, that doesn’t have my signatures, with a bunch of new charges and fees that I never confirmed. in the middle of filing the claim the agent hang up on me, so I had to call again to finalize the claim. the car was in a very poor condition, with the front fender all bended, making a scary scratching noise on the turns.

We change the initial car rented the follow day due to roaches and key malfunctions to close the car. The second car was infected of roaches as well

They fully lied about everything online from where to pick the car up to the price and policies. If you’re looking to save money go somewhere else

I'm sure that the cars were fine. What wasn't fine is what looked like a misrepresentation as to where they were located (looked like it was in or adjacent to the terminal and it wasn't) it was a 10 minute bus ride away and the real fun started when you finally got to the counter; they didn't take Amex which was not in the on-line rental agreement and as I didn't have my VISA I wasn't about to let them charge a $2500 deposit to my Debit Card. Then there was a demand for proof of insurance not the normal show your insurance card they wanted to see the declarations page out of your policy. Who carries that around? The final straw was the rental agents themselves or at least the one that waited on me. Face tattoos galore and surly to say the least. Their cars were incredibly cheap but it seemed to be a huge rip off and in disgust I finally got back in the bus back to the terminal and rented a car at Thrifty for 20 times what Rent-A-Wreck was charging. The last thing was that the Rent A Wreck counter had about five names on it and the same 3-4 clerks working it. There were families crying in the parking lot because of the hassle going on inside. It was amazing. Do yourself a favor at TPA if it doesn't say located in terminal don't waste your time stick with the majors in the terminal.

I was charged with extra administration fees that I wasn’t told about until I arrived there. I was told that it is because I have my own insurance and they charged me for that. I have rented cars many times before and never had I ever seen that before.

They never gave me a car. They didn’t accept my insurance and tried to charge me $500 for their insurance so I walked out of that shithole.

Nothing. When you hire a car, you expect to get in one.
