They had incorrect duplicate order that messed up my entire booking process. They then gave me the wrong car. Charged me for a full tank even though the car was 1/3 full. Had wrong mileage. When I dropped off, they tried to retroactively change my daily rate, increasing by 30%. Absolutely awful experience.

Everything was fairly smooth. I didn’t get a comprehensive explanation of the EV that ended up being my rental, but I figured most things out. Staff was friendly.

I couldn't rent the car as the location had closed at an odd time mid-afternoon. As a result I had to quickly organize other transportation.

vehicle not ready. surly staff. unreasonable waits, and an uncomfortable waiting area. the car they eventually gave us was not checked out and did not work. then they gave us another car that was dirty and not cleaned, let alone disinfected. car was not fueled up, so I did not fill it up upon return but just returned with more gas than they left me, and now they're charging me for a gas fill up. what could have been better? everything.

Here I made a reservation for the car and it was 40usd total. But si it happens that when you reach the desk to pick it up they sy it is mandatory to have the insurance and end up paying 95. Absolutely a scam.

Cons:

My daughter and I arrived in Philly via Amtrak from New York for a college tour at Temple and then at Swarthmore. They want to put a hold for $400 on a credit card. Give them my debit card - for an account in which there is well over $2,500. Put a hold on that? Oh nooooooo, not with an out of state drivers license. (Note: If I were in state - I wouldn't need a rental car!) Nope - they won't rent me a car. At all. They'll call and refer me to National - because THEY take debit cards (the equivalent of cash!). In the end, we miss the entire college tour at Temple AND I get the pleasure of spending $613 for a rental car instead of the $309 I expected. Never again will I even attempt to do business with Enterprise.

Enterprise said they never received all of my my information just my name and the morning of my appointment I called them to say I was on my way only to find out they didn’t have the car I reserved and was sold out completely.

Pros:

Nothing, the entire experience was awful.

Cons:

Everything, the customer service was terrible, the check engine light was on in the car, I got charged 3x for twice the amount that was owed. All in all I would rather walk then use Avis again. Seriously, how do you employee such rude people and stay in business? So rough..

8.8 Very Good

May 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

Convenience of pick up in Philly's Center City & drop off at airport. Low price! Kia compact was nimble and responsive.

Cons:

At pick-up they printed the right price on the contract. At drop off, the price they printed on the receipt was more than quadruple the quoted price. I had to go in to the counter and wait in line and it took three agents to fix the problem and honor the original quote. If I had not had the time to wait in line and if the agents hadn't been as competent and dedicated, I would have been very, very upset with the quadrupling of the price. And keep in mind that my original reservation was for a midsize at the same low price. I agreed to a compact because it was the only one ready and clean at pick up. So I would have paid more for less. I suspect the software used in the machines that print your receipt on the return lot is not in sync with the software that manages the agreements with kayak. Also interesting that my final receipt was from Budget, although the reservation and office were Avis.

The car smelled like cigarette smoke when we got in. One of the windshield wipers didn't work properly. We were charged for an extra day because we dropped off the car a little outside business hours (traffic was really bad because of the rain).

Shockingly bad cleanliness. Had to try and clean car myself, but was so dirty that I didn’t want to touch any buttons in the car and th sort on the seats marked my clothing. Tried to return the car to the next Avis/budget branch a few miles down the road, but they had no stock, so had to clean it as best as possible and continue. Never using this brand again.

Pros:

I was upgraded to a better car because the car I had reserved had not even been cleaned.

Cons:

Customer service agents at drop off location at airport were very unhelpful. The car I was initially given had food crumbs on the seats and a lighter in the cup holder. It was so dirty that we couldn’t sit in it. Luckily we were assigned a cleaner car right away.

Cons:

I picked up the car from Budget at Market Street and returned Airport. I saw the price on paper and did not accept it. The person told me not to worry about the number, the number would be the initial number. Then I received the receipt. But i saw the same amount in my credit card statement as in the receipt I objected. I disputed this amount and waiting now. One of my prior rental with Avis told me there is no charge if I return to airport. And Budget person told me so but the charge is more than they promised. I booked $195.92, Budget charged me $256.93.

Pros:

Very fast service and very easy process. Much cheaper than all the other rental places. The car was easy to drive and very clean.

Cons:

The vehicle was parked in between two poles. We thankfully had someone help us navigate to avoid backing up into the pole which was right behind the vehicle when we picked it up.
