They tried to hike up the price of the rental by 150%, while downsizing from a mid size to a compacr car, claiming the reservation which had been done more than a month in advance had a glitch. When I complained, they told me in a very rude way to take my business elsewhere. So I did and got a better car at a better price with a different rental company.

I had made a reservation well in advanced with a credit card and by a unknown reason they were all out of cars when I showed up to the airport, however there sister company had cars available obviously at a much higher rate. They do not honor reservations. Several other customers behind us in line were told the identical story. Somewhat defeats the purpose of a reservation. Beware and have a plan "B" ready to go.

Overall, a good experience. It would have been excellent if Avis had not wanted to not honor the reservation price. Avis did eventually honor the reservation price, but here was no need to go through a period of thinking that I was going to pay about twice as much as the reservation price. The reservation price was excellent.

Despite having a reservation, they did not have a car large enough for our group. This happened to us once before, never again. Both times we ended up renting from a local agency, and had much better experiences. Just look up local options on google maps and contact them, like you would larger agencies.

Nothing at all

I made my reservation from this site for a full size sedan preferably a Optima since that is what the listing said, OPTIMA. A few days after reservation I purchased the insurance through the website since it was a pretty decent deal. Well at my arival apparently a Kia Optima means a small VW Jetta with bunch of scratches and the airbag light on. I showed her the listing and it said Kia Optima or similar full size, welll to them, a Kia Optima is not a full size but a Luxury category which costs waaaay more. The teller did not want to take the insurance I purchased prior but gave me two choices, I either purchase their insurance since for them the insurance I purchased was not a valid insurance or leave a $5,000 dollar deposit in guarantee if something happens to the car they will fix from those $5,000 dlls. Really? My first and my last rental from this company, hands down. P.s. The insurance they charged me was almost $300 dlls. Awesome!!!

I reserved the car with an 11AM pickup time. I called the local office to confirm that this was correct. I reached the airport and the person working there said that they didn’t have anything available, and that their system showed the reservation as 11pm. We were not able to rent the car.

Everyone was friendly and helpful. We were shuttled to the rental agency and given a car. The car was clean and comfortable. Dropping the car off went smoothly and quickly with no delay getting us to our flight on time.

I was led to believe the price quoted online would include everything. Upon arrival we were informed of the mandatory insurance which was way more than the cost of the rental. It was definitely not what I expected to pay. They also put a very high hold on my credit card while we had the car. I would have liked to know about all of this before booking.

Woman at counter was courteous

Price, insurance was $110 per day. I had the car 30 hours and had to pay 2 days of rental and 2 days of outrageous insurance. I used to pay $67 dollars for insurance in the past. As I have been a long time customer. The car had a terrible smell of burnt motor oil coming from the engine. Called the number provided by them to let them know if the issue and never got an answer. Never going back.

Didn't even take the car. They kept saying to get the car I needed a separated insurance from the one I purchased. I've done rentals with them before and never did they offer it. My reservation was for $500 and the insurance they were forcing me to get was $1,600. That's ridiculous.

Picked up at 2am car dirty, after a getting on the road notice breaks were bad and it had transmission problems. Get home slept and at 12 noon went to the local Eurocar to return it or get a replacement. Was told no cars available to take it back to the airport where I got it. Went to the airport after rush hour, told them the situation and I was told I would have to wait 1 hour for an available car. I said I rather just return car early. They said in that case you will be charged one whole day plus 5% early return fee. With the car status I shouldn’t be charge 5% fee or even a whole day. At the end my credit card was charge the full amount of the beginning rental of five days. Will take it up with my credit card. I was given a supervisors number to call, phone rang with no answer. Bad business

They didn’t have any car available at the time I reached the car rental office. They even told me that my only solution was to go to other car rental companies, however same day reservations are usually more expensive. I found another place nearby from the company Mex Rent a Car, however I had to Pay more than double the price of what I reserved on Payless. I will never choose Payless again.

When I arrived to pick up vehicle the Payless Rental Agency had no office inside the airport or shuttle that takes you to pick up the office. You have to walk three blocks towards there office!!!! With a family of three small children and four suitcases.....Once I arrived to the office there was a line of about 15 people in front of me, which was not a problem because it was a Friday and I could understand the rush. Once it was my turn after one hour and half of waiting they informed me that the vehicle I had requested was not available even though I had reserved it with more than a week of anticipation. That they could offer me a regular car but that it would cost me about double what the original reservation would be. They informed me that because I did not do the reservation directly with them that I had to call you're office to change anything ……..I tried many times calling you're office but with no luck...….This has been the worst experience me and my family have had …..We have never been treated like this …...We will never you you're service and will definitely recommend to any one we know or meet never to use this service ever.
