The staff on 09/10/21 Flint airport was terrible. I’ve been a customer for over 10 years and was treated rudely and given wrong information about debit card policy. The National staff is nothing compared to Enterprise.

Easy pickup.

I picked up the car in the dark. Once it was light I could see the disgusting condition of the car. I called to complain and they were sorry but no help. I have pictures if anyone is interested. Avis isn’t interested as they never contacted me after. Poor customer service.

Price was great. Employees behind the counter for pick up and return were extremely pleasant. Loved the roominess of the vehicle.

The car had a funny smell to it, like smelly gym clothes were left in it. Other companies have you prepay for gas if you’d like ata cheaper price so you can return the car without a full tank of gas. Find it helpful sometimes as you may be running behind and don’t have time to fill up or can’t find a gas station near by. When checking in and out there was only one person helping behind the desk. Would have been nicer if there was two people to keep things moving quicker.

Staff at pickup was very friendly and then staff at drop off was great. I forgot my Kindle in the car and they phoned me right away and kept it for me. Amazing service.

Was very disappointed to rent a $100 per day car without bluetooth. In 2019 bluetooth should be standard.

I liked that the pick-up and drop-off was at the terminal

We ordered a premium car--Impala and instead given a full-sized car. Though my paperwork said Impala, since we booked through carRentals..com, Avis wouldn't honor it. The first car that we were given reeked of cigarettes. We then received a Ford Fusion and, although clean, was too small for 5 people

The male "supervisor" at Bishop Airport in Flint, Michigan was rude, ridiculous and a horrible representative for Alamo. I had a confirmed reservation through Kayak on my cell phone but he could not find it on his computer. Therefore, I was refused a rental car! The reservation had been made well in advance. Without any assistance from him, I had to make a completely new reservation in order to get a car two days later which ruined the first two days of my vacation. Never again!!

Dollar was a bust, but Enterprise came to the rescue!

I have a $500 limit on my credit card, the rental with insurance was was quoted at $425, I was fine with the price. Was not worried as my credit card had $500 remaining credit. That was until Dollar then charged my credit card over $525, without telling me, my credit card was then declined, because of the $500 limit. Dollar is not able to delete the charge after the card had been swiped, I was standing there with no car, and completely stressed, as I had no other card on me except my debit card, which Dollar does not accept. If dollar would have just stated, before they swiped my card, "your initial charge will be $525, is that okay?" then I would have not gotten the insurance and been on my way. It was a nightmare, but Enterprise accepted my debit, so I was able to get a vehicle, even though is was at a slightly higher price.

Really?

Reserved a mid- sized compact but got a tiny mini-fridge on wheels for my visit to Sub-Zero Clarkston, MI. Even worse, the interior gave off noxious paint fumes ( how was this possible)? And dangerous: the windshield washer fluid was either empty, or the sprayer was broken in that p o c Hyundai Accent.

Reserved a car at Dollar using Kayak and when I got there to pick the car up I was told that they do not accept debit cards or cash. We stopped using credit cards 5 years ago and this has never been an issue before, so after a bit of panic I called my daughter and had her make the hour trip to rent the car using her car. Since she is under 25 they added $28 per day to the charges. Than they added another $15 per day for me to a driver on it. We then get the car, about 90 minutes after we arrived at the desk, and it is not an Intermediate model, but a Fiesta compact. Go back to the desk and are told that is what I reserved. At this point we are way late leaving for the funeral we are attending, so we just take the car and leave as we have no more time to argue with the desk agent. Later I pull up my reservation and see that I had in fact rented a Intermediate sized car and 4 people ended up spending 20 hours in a little tin car because of the desk agent lying to me. I am a bit upset at Kayak for not notifying me of this locations payment policies and steaming mad at Dollar for their dishonest desk agent.

Pickup and drop off were find. No issues with that nor the staff, other than when I dropped off and explained of some issues, the attendant did not seem too concerned about it.

I picked up my car and it was dirty. Garbage in the door, crumbs in the cup holders. Shortly after I picked the car up, the check engine light came on. I attempted to call the 1-800 number on the brochure given to me at pickup. The menu was unable to connect me with a person based on the reason for my call. So....I had a car for 3 days that I didn't really drive because I was unable to get assistance with the issue. When I dropped it off and explained what had happened, the staff just said, "Yeah, you can never really get through on the 800 number." What in the world! If that is the case, then why are customers not given a local number to call? She offered to give me a card to call the manager, but at that point....what was the point in doing that? I told her that I would probably just not use their service in the future. She just said "ok. Sorry for the inconvenience." I was very unimpressed with the service provided to me during my rental with your company.

The car had scratches and a smoke smell that wasn't already filled out on the check-in slip. I didn't want to be charged for them so it took awhile to notate those and then stand in line again to confirm those with the check-in person. Just an added step that could have easily been taken care of before I got to the car. Also, the price for about 12 hours of use seemed excessive.

Agent was rude at pick up. I explained that I need to get to a doctors appointment. She insisted on going through every question although I have a profile with Budget. Then said we had to wait because car just came on and needed to be washed. After much discussion she made us sign as is waiver. She said we should have taken an earlier flight. No earlier flight was available and our flight was late. Which she said was not her fault

The customer service at the desk was the best I have ever experienced. Casey was the best. I wish he could teach a class on how customer service is the core to a company. The transaction was smooth and fast, he explained everything and got us on our way in no time.

There were some water bottle caps in the car and the car didn't look like it was vacuumed in the trunk.
