Car was fine...not having free unltd mileage is totally bogus, and then acting like I'm a jerk for asking is worse. No one at the office, dude was late, then he was rude (and he was a lot later than the time it says I picked up the car). Returned car to a different location. Same dude. He refused to come check out the car to, to note the mileage, to tell me if there would be addition charges because "as you can see there are other people waiting." And then just started helping someone else. I fully expect to have enormous charges that I didn't expect. Not renting from Budget again.

Great experience with Hertz. Man at counter suggested an upgrade at a fair price so we did. Great car and made our holiday very enjoyable and safe.

Cheap car (supplier's choice). We (me and my girlfriend) got big MPV (Kia) with 7 spaces. A lot of places, a good car.

Slow pickup - there was a problem with mobile network in Yulara - there was no internet connection or mobile signal on the airport this day so everything had to be filled manually by renter/supplier. But it can happen - it is not Hertz fail... E91 Uluru price - $2,22 compare to Sydney - $1,37

Not much

I know I booked a "mystery vehicle", but getting a banged up van for a couple in their fifties was not exactly what I envisioned. I can understand a van part as it was a mystery car, but why was it banged up and not cleaned well after the previous use? Nobody was available at the desk mid-day when we were returning the vehicle. We tried two times with half-hour in between. Is anybody manning the desk at all?

Only 300km free. They know everyone wants to drive to Uluru so they can gouge the tourists. Everywhere else has unlimited km/miles

I got quote of around 280 AD but had to pay more than 500 AD without insurance. I got no explanation of this overcharge at airport reception.

Should release credit card retainer when the car is returned in good order like other companies - not 2 weeks later!

Poor|Apr 2023

Not any online systems worked, no online checking, not possible to download invoice (credentials do not match). People on desk were very friendly and nice, but everything else poor. Also I'll complain my invoice as I get it. The price offer what I get was different as taken my credit card.

Wanted to extend the hire for just 4 days but this was going to cost me more than the 11 days I had already hired. So I took it back to the airport in Alice Springs and hired from another car hire agency for $300 rather then over $2k. Ridiculous difference in price for a similar car.

Poor service, so many hidden fees. A complete scam. And to make it worse the car broke down and their ‘supposed’ roadside service would not come unless they were paid an extortionist sum. You are warned, this is NOT a company worth doing business with.
