" Auto Europe was fine all the paperwork etc was fine the issue was the lack of an 8 seater car. "
" booked an 8 seater, on getting to desk was told they did not have any 8 seaters and would I prefer a 7 seater SUV or a 12 seater minibus. as i needed 8 seats i said i would take the minibus was about to have that checked and they found an 8 seater, we were told location and went and loaded luggage and our 4 guests, 3 more were join in a week, got to villa and the next morning found the 8th seat was a base and seatbelt but no chair. so in effect a 7 seater. called them and thy had none to swap, luckily our 3 other members joining later had a car booked but wanted to save on parking at the parks, this was then back to the 2 cars as originally planned, if a fully working 8 seater is scarce then maybe they should have more in stock. did not ruin the trip but made it cost more as the 8 seater was more to book and additional car parking for 2 weeks at the parks was another £390 as well.

" I don't believe auto Europe could have done much more as agents but I do not think thrifty is a good firm to partner with. "
" Ended with a five year old 15 seater which was not very clean and seats were stained.I was told by the representative that the vehicle was brand new. I was told there wasn't any cars like I requested. This was extremely difficult to get in and out of and none of the seats appeared to fold. I ended up having to hoist cases into the back. My children had to struggle with me. I am disabled. There was no tat nav which I asked for. "

" Nothing I can say really as once booked I didn't have any reason to change the booking or any further contact with AE so from that point of view everything was perfect. "
" On collection I was advised I could report any additional damage via the Sixt Portal which I duly did but the extra damage reported never showed. I sent a separate Email out of precaution at that point noting I had a full video of the condition of the vehicle as in addition to external damage not showing on the condition report, the parcel shelf for the boot was missing. In the Florida heat that was a real pain as couldn't ever really leave anything in the boot of the car both due to the heat and would have been on show. Might sound ungrateful but an X6 is a coupe so whilst technically an SUV, which is what I had booked, it meant I had to put one case on the rear seat. As we are a family of 3 we managed but it wasn't ideal. I had anticipated an X5 which would no doubt have accommodated the 4 cases we had with us. Every tyre on the car was a different make, from recollection some were all season tyres and some summer. Being brutally honest I would have expected same tyres on each axle as a minimum. That said collection was slick and the representative helpful and friendly. Return which was at the airport could have been a little easier if more staff on, it seemed to be one guy dealing with everything. He was understandably keen for me to sign off on the car on return but I felt I needed to film the condition carefully as the additional damage I had reported on collection had not shown in the App. Overall I'm not put off from using either AE or Sixt again just a few issues that Sixt could do better on.

" The AutoEurope side of things was fine, it was Thrifty terminal staff that let the process down. "
" The Thrifty staff at the collections desk were terrible, I thought I had all the insurance I needed but felt pressured into taking more. Then he added on a fuel voucher, then he was talling me about the toll pass, but decided we did not need this as not travelling far, he told me all the toll booths had staff & I could pay cash if we needed to use them . We had tolls on the way from the airport to where we were staying, we paid cash but on the final toll there was no staff so had no choice but to drive through, so I have no idea how this will manifest. He then gave us the the car lot number where we could find the car & directions on how to find it, we went over to the collection garage looking for the car, it was very hot and we were very tired from a long day travelling, we could not find the lot number - so went to the Thrifty desk in the garage - the guy from the terminal had assigned us a car in Terminal C we were in Terminal A - we'd never have found it! Overal NOT impressed with Thrifty and would think twice about using them in the future. I thought the rpice I paid AutoEurope was a good price but with the add-ons that Thrifty made me feel I needed it was such a good deal. "

Usually use GoRental. Appreciate that certain matters ie staffing are outside of your control but with the no of cars you hire out using them you must have some sway. "

" AutoEurope were great. Thrifty are a dishonest company who I will never deal with again- I would much rather pay slightly more and avoid the hour- long wait st the counter and the hard-sell and attempt to steal my money by adding insurance which I already repeatedly declined. "
" Had to wait over an hour in line at the Thrifty desk - there was only one representative present. I clearly declined all additional insurances, but the Thrifty staff member included over $200 additional insurances to my credit card, despite me making it very clear I did not want this. It was only when I asked to check the total amount due that I noticed this additional charge and insisted it be removed. After this, the staff member's attitude changed completely - from being pleasant and friendly, to being rude and hurried. Indeed, she actually calls the next group to the desk before we had even concluded our business. I will never rent from Thrifty again - they deliberately included additional costs which I specifically declined - they are a dishonest company. This is the only reason they do not allow customers to go straight to the garage and select a car - because they want to up sell and steal from customers at the desk, generally after customers have just come from a long flight and are tired and seen as easy targets. I must stress, the service I received from AutoEurope was excellent - it is Thrifty who I have a major issue with. "

" Usually vehicles are fairly new and in good condition however the Tahoe we were allocated was absolutely filthy. Unfortunately it is difficult to see this in the dark airport and we were very tired so only realised as we left the airport. I spent three hours cleaning it the next day. On a day of rain we also found the wiper to be broken. The catalytic converter also smelled terrible. The car had accumulated a lot of miles sbout 40 thousand and obviously hadn't been serviced as on the dash it kept saying needs wiper fluid replenishment. I was not pleased as we choose Alamo because although more expensive are usually of much better quality. I have booked again but I am hoping this does not happen again as I will be looking elsewhere if it does. Very disappointing! "

The staff were very slow on collection and there were only 2 desks for thrifty. The staff were also trying hard to upsell, which is something we don't like after having issues with incorrect charges previously. The counter selling tactics when people are tired and flustered are very off putting. We contacted the customer services to report a cell phone left in the car and they weren't very helpful. We were satisfied with the drop off and have no real complaints. Just a bit average for car hire, which is annoying when prices seem to have gone up so much for rental in the US recently. "

" It was not a nice experience at the front desk, as stated. However, our vehicle was provided to us quickly at the collection point and the staff there were very helpful. The return was also a smooth process, and without hassle. "
" When we took out the rental, we took out the gold package, which meant to us that we were covered in everything that we needed. However, on getting to the counter to redeem our voucher, that woman dealing with us tried to get us to purchase add-ins for everything. This included upgrading to a bigger vehicle (we already had a 7 seater), extra breakdown cover etc. We refused everything, stating that if something was wrong with the vehicle that was not our fault, we knew we would be covered. She then moved onto a Sun Pass to get us through tolls, stating that if we didn't have one that we would be fined. We explained that we used the cash booths and so we didn't need to purchase a pass, as we did not cross many tolls at all. She then told us that cash payments on tolls were no longer an option, and again pushed for the Sun Pass. Worried that we would receive hefty fines on our credit card, we felt we had no option but to purchase one. That came to approx $250. However, when we got onto the highway and reached a toll booth, we saw that cash payment was still an option and we felt lied to in order for her to make a sale. This is unacceptable for a Dollar representative, who's word we trusted. If we hadn't have had previous knowledge about renting a vehicle from Orlando airport, I feel she would have been able to charge us a lot more, on top of what we already paid. "

Unfortunately, we were unable to do anything the following day as it was a Sunday and there were no local dollar services open. Luckily we were staying with family who took us to pick up a new battery which fixed the issue. The batteries were paid for out of pocket. "

" Queued 40 minutes at rental desk, handed A. E. voucher to agent who spoke quietly in a very noisy atmosphere and I had to constantly ask her to repeat the question much to her annoyance, she handed my a paper with car location and I pointed out that there were additional drivers as per the voucher to which she was rather rude saying I should have pointed that out even though my wife & daughter were standing with driving licences in hand. The car was not fit for hire, one rear seat belt faulty, fully extended and not retracting, tucked behind the reas seat back. On starting the car alarm tones and warnings from the dashboard for low tyre pressure and oil change required. The luggage cover in the boot was broken and jammed down the back of the rear seats protruding above the seat backs obstructing the view through the rear view mirror. The exterior was in poor condition, dents, scrapes, scratches and the front skirt split. The car was smaller than the vehicle I booked, it was the size of my wife's Ford Puma. I found a attendant and told him of the problems, he told me to go back to the rental desk and complain or tell the person on the exit gate, I chose the exit gate and the attendant there told me that all the problems were listed on the system and it was good to go and if I wasn't satisfied go back to the rental desk. Clearly Budget by name budget by nature, I found a service station and sorted the tyre pressures A very disappointing experience. "

Our car had not been cleaned, was really covered in sand inside - we had to wipe down the seats before we could sit down. There was rubbish in the car from the previous renter and I was appalled to find an acrylic, painted blue, finger nail in the passenger door - made me feel sick. The outside of the car was dirty and lots of scratches and dents. We are sure that we got the car in the same condition that it had been dropped off by the previous renter - not cleaned in anyway or petrol filled. Very disappointing and did take some of the shine off our holiday. I intend to complain to customer services as we believe we did not get what we paid for. "

The car was clean and presentable however unlike other times of car collection I was not given the option of similar cars. On driving the car I found that at 60mpg the steering wheel shook and knowing a bit about cars, knew that the road wheels were out of balance. I considered for a number of days about returning the car, but decided as we only doing mostly local trips I would put up with fault.

At T3 Orlando airport on Tursday November , 2024 at about 8PM. The Thifty counterstaff left his desk and almost assualted a customer who complained about the totally unacceptable wait times. Fight was only avoided as the customer was a young tall male with a baby and the Thifty representative was an older, much smaller male.

" Auto Europe have been fine. However, I will never have a car from Thrifty again and I will ensure that I relay my experience with their staff to anyone who is going to hire a car in Orlando. The car was fine, but we were on tenterhooks the whole time in case we had a puncture. My negativity of the rental experience lies with the Orlando Thrifty staff! "
" I believed that we had purchased the extra to cover tyres (if punctured) and a tow. However, when collecting the car in Orlando MCO, the staff were extremely unhelpful and tried to obtain an extra $300 plus for the required cover in the event of a puncture/breakdown. I showed them the level of cover that was on my email from you, but he was dismissive and said that it wasn't on his screen - so no cover. He pointed out that it was my fault that I had gone through a third party and I should have booked directly with them. He also said that if one tyre was punctured, we had to pay for a pair, because of inbalance of the axle. "

It was now about 2am UK time after flying all day and our two young children were in floods of tears as they were so exhausted. The staff were rude and unhelpful until one lady took pity on us and managed to find a car that was apparently better than the one we had booked (so the other staff hadn't want to give it to us). We eventually got the car and it absolutely stunk of cigarette smoke and was flashing with an alert that it needed oil added. I messaged Thrifty on instagram who were incredibly unhelpful. We drove around in a smelly car all week (we bought an air freshener but even that couldn't drown out the putrid smell), worrying it would break down. I would rather pay £100s more than ever touch Thrifty again. "

" Auto Europe were good as always. The price was right and all the rental terms are arrangements were clear. Hertz were the problem and I doubt I'll rent from them again given the blatant disregard for customer satistaction and cost and inconvenience they caused me "
" When collecting the car, and I appreciate I was 2hours later than I'd booked, there was no vehicle available and I had to wait 35 mins for Hertz to find one. The car that arrived was a little bigger than I'd booked but that was okay, it also had some damage - dents front, back and on the roof and the shark fin antennae on the roof was sellotaped on. The real issue was when I returned the car, which was to a different office to where I collected it. That office was next to SeaWorld as I was going in there for the day from their opening time at 0900. It turned out that the office I was to return to was closed by Hertz around 2 years ago. I called the numbers that Hertz had given me for the collection and drop off offices but both came back with a 'number does not exist' message so I had to call a Hertz national helpline. They directed me to take the car back to where I had collected it and assured me there would be someone there from 0800 - it was now 0830 and I was due to be at a theme park at 0900. When I got to the new drop off location it was closed and hotel staff said that Hertz do not come in until around 1030. The hotel staff were very helpful and after more failed phone calls from me and them to Hertz, they agreed to take the keys from me and look after the car until the Hertz rep arrived. I then had to get an Uber to take me back to Seaworld. All in, I lost 1.5 hours from my day and the surcharge I paid to return the car to a different location. I also had to pay for the Uber. Hertz sent me an email survey which I completed and confiemed at the end that I wanted someone to contact me about the poor rental experience, but nobody has, "

" Budget and Avis are my first choice in car hire - can't believe I just wrote that! I am in the Budget Fastbreak program.... after securing my booking with Auto Europe I email and phone Budget to ask if they could apply my booking to my Fastbreak (this is ONLY to avoid the one and a half hour wait at the desk at Orlando). Something that has been done for me in the past by Avis with my Avis Preferred membership. However BUDGET say NO as the booking is with Auto Europe and refer me to AE - Of course AE tell me they can't do anything about that. Its forgotten about , then a couple of weeks before pick-up Budget send me numerous "invitations" by email, to sign up with their "Preregister" to save time at airport!!. I fill in the web application with all the details on-line which include all Credit card details. THEN their web page states the application failed - NO REASON given! After a while on the phone Budget reps says that "The Preregister" can't be done with the booking made with Auto Europe!! OK then...but WHY send out these emails to AE customers. Why fail the web form application with NO reason given. Poor web site management? "
" The wait at the Budget Counter wasn't too bad but was unnecessary. I am in the Budget Fastbreak program and Budget also "bombard" me just before the booking with numerous emails asking me to preregister only to find out that it is not allowed with Auto Europe customers. I have emailled Budget and Auto Europe about this and also previously but I am just wasting my time !!! The car was from out of "State" 36000 miles and after the first wet day realized just how badly worn the tyres were. 36000 miles with worn out tyres "

" Auto Europe are great.... been booking with them for 20 yrs with no problem usually using Alamo. Dollar or Budget. Great prices and very easy to rebook when prices drop. However would recommend people stay of Sixt Car Rental "
" I have a paper driving license which i have used with no problem in Florida for 20 yrs. When i presented this at their Sixt checkin counter the Lady told me that paper licenses were no longer accepted by Sixt and it said that on the website. When I told her there was no such statement she then changed tack and said that I had defaced the license (I had some sellotape on the folds due to the age of the license but otherwise it was intact). I explained that Alamo and Dollar had no issues such as this previously and she then said she would photo the license and send to her Manager for a decision. The Manager said they would accept the licence but due to the additional risk i posed I would have to pay $500 for additional comprehensive insurance. I explained that I was already covered thru the AutoEurope booking and I had additional insurance for wheel, undercarriage and glass taken out in the UK. She basically said pay the insurance or no rental. What a SCAM and not very moral !!! "

I am very annoyed at the information I was given by the Auto Europe agent, bad enough at the dissapointment of missing my flight & a day of my holiday but then having to resolve my car. "

" As for Auto Europe, I automatically went with them after my experience last time I went to Florida. Only, this time, EVERYONE I spoke to who had a hire car had paid a LOT less that I had...that's my fault for not shopping around and just trusting that they were the cheapest last time, so assumed they would be this time. Next time I WILL shop around first. "
" We arrived late to pick the car up because our flight out was delayed, when i got to the car lot i had ordered a Compact SUV with GPS, but there was only one vehicle and it didn't have GPS, so the person on duty let me take a Large SUV and didn't charge me extra.

" Overall the car was what we ordered, reasonablevalue, and we enjoyed and had no problems with using it. However, we waited over 30 minutes at the Dollar counter to be served, and it was very difficult to hear/understand the Hispanic counter clerk. Also I was surprised and disappointed to hear that breakdown insurance wasn't included, as there had been no mention of this during the booking process or on the car voucher. So $140 was added to our bill....was this a scam?! Also the car we ordered was not available at Orlando terminal C, where we had landed, so we had to go to terminal B, which added yet more delay. Finally the car was in poor condition, lots of scratches and chips to the paintwork, and almost 40,000 miles on the clock. "

" No issues with auto Europe - used many times. Thrifty have been very disappointing and would not use dollar/Thrifty again. "
" This is the email I have sent to Thrifty: I have recently hired a car from you from 5th June and Returned 19th June- this being the first time I have specifically been told which car I needed to have when normally i have always been given an area to pick one from. I then was charged $528 on credit card being informed $400 was deposit and the rest for the car seat hire. Once I got the car to the villa I notice the car key had DAMAGED in red writing. Upon expecting the car I had notice multiple scratches, dents and a big scuff on the rear bumper. After trying to call Dollar 5 times with no success I gave up. I then proceeded to look at my paperwork and on the receipt notice a premium road service charged at $9.99 per day to a total of $139.66! I have driven in Florida multiple times and simply would not have agreed to this charge ( neither did I sign anything to say so!) the person who I dealt with clearly tried to pull a fast one assuming I was a first time tourist and wouldn't know the difference!! When I returned the car I spoke to a guy who who was very helpful and explained just to go down to the counter and then will assist and remove. I then went down and spoke to another helpful lady who asked me if I signed a piece of paper ( and showed me ) and explained I hadn't. She then explained she needed her team leader to help. I approached Alina and explained the issue - the first the she said was - you will not be getting a refund today, passed me her mobile phone ( not very professional) with a picture for this email - she ripped off my receipt and proceeded to say bye, no apologies or anything. I am requesting the premium road service to be refunded with immediate effect and I want 50% of the car hire also refunded as I did not pay for a damaged car, the car also had key sense on it which meant I couldn't control half of the items in the car and had a limiter on the volume of radio and no control of parking sensors etc. "

Been using Alamo in US for 10 years, never had a car allocated before and always got to choose from a bank of V6 large cars.

Had we left the car park without noticing the damage we would have been liable for a new winscreen. We then had to find another Dollar Rep and have a change of vehicle, the outside was dirty, the inside was clean and the tank was only 3/4 full.

" After waiting for more than two hours at the collection desk at arrivals I was missold several add ons. Specifically, whan asked if I wanted premium or standard cover I replied that I had already got insurance cover so the clerk wrote Standard Cover on my receipt. He then asked if I wanted a Sun Pass and told me I would only pay for the trips I took. He then took a prepayment swipe of my credit card and gave me the receipt which clearly stated "Estimate". After returning the car I received a receipt that showed that I had been charged for Premium cover and the full Sun Pass charge for every day of the hire even though I only used tolls on two days with a total charge of around 14 dollars. I have raised a complaint with Dollar but they have not responded so I am now elevating my complaint to my credit card provider as a possible fraud. "

" We were first of all queuing at Orlando airport rental area for a very long time as there were only a handful of staff operating counters, with some standing and talking to each other, others disappearing. The queue itself was very long but no one seemed to be doing anything about it. When it was finally our turn, the staff member was talking so quietly that we could hardly hear him. When we asked about the Sun Pass for tolls, and whether he knew if there were tolls between the airport and Disney (our destination), he was unable to say, despite working in the area. We were also surprised when breakdown cover was not included in the overall price. Due to the amount this would have cost, we declined. When everything had eventually been processed, choosing the car was quite straightforward, and the car drove well for the most part, although the ignition was temperamental - sometimes it wouldn't start straight away. Additionally, the dial showing the fuel gauge etc. flickered on and off at times, sometimes disappearing entirely.

" When I picked car up was expecting a hybrid but they said EV was all that was available. Told them I'd never driven one before and asked about recharging. The agent said she didn't know but after asking a colleague said there would be info in car plus I could ask garage attendant. There was no info and nobody to ask. Called Dollar twice for help and both times was told they personally couldn't help but someone would call me back. Nobody called.... Started searching web and went to a couple of places with EV chargers. Soon found out it's not easy! All charging spots were full. Can't pay with credit or debit card only network charge card. Fearing I wouldn't be able to recharge or get back to the airport I stopped using the car to save the battery. Had to resort to Uber for travel to parks dining shopping etc.. Stressful and expensive and support from Dollar was useless. I can't be the only person to find themselves in this predicament? "

" See above. In this age of modern technology I would have expected more assistance - particularly in putting another driver on the rental, even if only to get us back to our hotel. Our fellow golfers got back to the hotel and hired a car so that we could collect Tony from the hospital. I was very disappointed in the lack of help or any feedback from the company. It will be interesting to see if I get any response to these comments "
" I am replying (Angela grant) as I paid for the rental but Tony was the only driver. Tony had an accident and was unable to drive from the 14th of March. He was taken to hospital with a dislocated arm and three breaks at the elbow. It took a friend approximately 1.5hrs phone call with someone who couldn't understand the accident happened on a golf cart and the car was not in the incident. We tried to get someone else put on the insurance so we could at least get back to our hotel, approx. 45 minutes away, but were told we would have to go to an office to do that. The young man did not seem to grasp our situation and kept having to "go and check". There was no follow up email to say the rental had been terminated. We left the vehicle keys with the manager of the golf course as we were not prepared to wait a further two hours for it to be picked up. If we had not had a member of our party who had a car we would have been stuck. It would also have been helpful to have had a follow up email. "

" I always use Alamo as they are the only rental company in Orlando Int Airport who have never tried to defraud me of extra costs. On 20/02/24 my flight arrived an hour early and the person on the desk tried to charge me $31 extra to collect earlier than my allotted time. I refused and he then said I would have to return the car early (4.00pm for a 9.50pm return flight) - hardly ideal. That said the car was problem free and returning was very straightforward and 'Chin' was the person I returned to and he was very polite and friendly. I will use Alamo again. "

However I haven't been charged for anything. So no issues with that. It would just have been better to have it stated "

" The worst Alamo experience ever. The reasonable marks are based on previous years "
" Car developed fault and I had to drive back to airport to replace. In spite of pre-calling to agree it should be returned, Airport staff knew nothing about it and the first two staff encounters were not good. The first employee tried to tell me all cars "did this" - when I knew full well they didn't as my car had been fine for 3 weeks. Finally someone did help but initially couldn't provide with a similar car again in spite of the call centre sending me to the airport as it was the only place that could match my car!! The other frustrating thing with Alamo is that ins site of me booking with you for just over 5 weeks they insisted the car could only be booked for 30 days. This has happened before and they seem incapable of dealing with it! "

" While all the 'customer care' from Auto-Europe was extremely efficient and thorough, I would hesitate to recommend the company due to the extremely negative and expensive experience we had with their USA provider Sixt. "
" Sixt charged us $330 dollars more for a pre-paid rental. They said my USA license could not be used. I am a UK resident with a USA driver's license. For that reason, they would not accept our booking and charged us a whopping $330 more. After a 10-hour flight and with a deadline to reach our destination, we were not in a position to continue our arguments. It feels to me like Sixt was out to make more money at our expense. Auto-Europe customer service looked into this and came back with an unsatisfactory decision that we were not due a refund. Please feel free to contact me for further information on this case. "

" I blame myself for this incident but I was lied to and misled by the Dollar rep. I will never use Dollar again! "
" On arrival I was allocated a Nissan Sentra car (your reservation indicated Honda Civic or similar). On picking up the car in the garage we found that this model had very low seats, and the passenger seat had no height adjustment facility. My wife suffers from back pain and was not able to get in or out easily and not able to sit comfortably. Then I discovered that the car would not start. I sought help and was informed that the battery was faulty. I went back to the Dollar desk and explained the situation and requested another car, and one with higher level seats so my wife would be comfortable. I suggested something like a SUV might be ok. The Dollar rep said he only had only one car available, a VW Atlas, but this would cost an extra $25. I asked if he meant per day and he said for the period. I only discovered it was $25 per day when I looked at the revised rental documents again at the time I returned the car. It was my fault I didn't check the document again but I was lied to by the Dollar rep. It's easy to say I was tired after a long flight and relieved there was a suitable car (the only one?) available and I should have rechecked the hire document again. I didn't think about it at the time but customers were asked to sign agreement electronically before being handed the hire document. I did check the document for the Sentra before leaving the desk and it was correct. This has cost me an additional $350 + tax, a hard lesson! "

" Dollar charge 13/1/24 (Hire ended 1/1/24): Car experience was very good, however, the Dollar commercial ethics are questionable and I would ask you to facilitate a refund for an undisclosed and unexpected charge almost 2 weeks after the hire termination date: Disappointed to get "Dollar Toll 8302909" unexpected charge 13 days after returning the car without explanation just charged to my card. Toll suggests road toll. As we have a Sun Pass account and it was active from the first day of hire, I cannot believe that was the reason for the charge. This is an unwelcome charge of $13.11 USD and we expect that it will be refunded as soon as possible. Consequently I am unable to recommend Dollar to a friend and will advise caution on account of this stealth charge. Receipt is available on request.

Please provide me with confidence within 14 days (today is 3/2/2024) or I will contact my credit company to take action to recover the unknown charge. "

I also said I didn't want to pay for the tank in advance and would bring it back full, he did not remove the addition, after a long haul flight and having such a delay and problems with the initial car and family getting stressed I didn't argue any further. Having used the car it would have only cost me $35 to fill the tank up, it cost me $62.59 for the refill tank- not a bargain. As the counter rep stated. "

WE HAD NO OPTION BUT TO UPGRADE TO A SUITABLE CAR WHICH WAS A HYUNDAI SONATA I THINK. GREAT CAR. WE HAD NO OPTION BUT TO AGREE TO AN UPGRADE AS WE HAD TO TRAVEL 150 MILES NORTH THAT NIGHT. I WAS ,IN MY OPINION, SCAMMED BY THRIFTY BY BEING CHARGED $447 FOR THE UPGRADE HAVING PAID YOU OVER $700 FOR A FORD FOCUS (A PHOTO AND DETAILS AR ON YOUR WEB SITE) MY SUPPORT FOR THIS STAEMENT IS THAT BACK IN ENGLAND I DICOVER I COULD HAVE HIRED A SECOND CAR AT THE THRIFTY DESK FOR LESS THAN HE UPGRADE CHARGE , A CAR ALMOST IDENTICAL TO THE HYUNDAI, THAT BEING A KIA OPTIMA OR VW JETTA FOR $26.28 A DAY, LESS THAN THE EXTRA PER DAY PAID FOR THE UPGRADE. HOW WOULD YOU FEEL ABOUT THIS TOTAL RIP OFF. DISGUSTING AND COMPOUDED BY YOUR SITE ILLUSTRATING A FORD FOCUS. NO WAY ON EARTH IS A MARANTZ EQUIVALENT TO A FORD FOCUS. THIS MISINFORMATION AND NEAR UILLEGAL ACTION BY THRIFTY COST ME $447 .ADDITIONALLY I WOULD HAVE BEEN ONLY PAYING $424 FOR THE HIRE OF A KIA OPTMA IF I HAD JUST TURNED UP AT THEIR DESK IN ORLANDO AND NOT HIRED VIA AUTO EUROPE!!! I WOULD RESPECTIVELY REQUEST A REFUND TO COVER THE ADDTIONAL RIP OFF OF $447 BY THRIFTY. I AM APPROACHING YOUR COMPANY AS I BELIEVE AS MY AGENT YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ORIGINAL MISINFORMATION CONCERNING THE CAR, SHOULD KNOW OF THIS POSSIBLE SCAM AND IN THE UNLIKELY CHANCE THRIFTY WOULD DO ANYTHING TO REIMBURSE ME HAVING IN THE OVERALL VIEW OF THINGS CHARGED ME MORE THAN DOUBLE FOR THIS TOTAL SHAMBLES.

" No Dollar cars available whatsoever on contract start date (23 November 7pm). Dollar staff (at terminal C check in and then garage) failed to acknowledge and communicate that plain fact to me.. Significant distress caused to my son given his special needs. Apologies rendered eventually by Dollar customer service but no recompense of alternative transportation costs (car rented for one day from Alamo) distress to son and inconvenience of lengthy round trip returning to airport . Car then initially provided by Dollar (24 November) had defective rear seat belts. Dollar customer service are now refusing to deal with my complaint beyond rendering apologies. "

Then they told me I need a Toll Pass in Florida, at another $195, to avoid fines because all toll roads are now cashless. This was totally untrue as I only paid one toll of $3, by cash, to reach my holiday destination in Kissimmee. "

I had to clean the windows of the filth that was in them. Later on the tyre pressure warning light came on. Went to 1st garage paid 2 lots if $2 only to find the machine wasn't working and petrol station said they couldn't refund me.

" Arrived at Orlando International Airport just before midnight got car paperwork sorted then went to collect vehicle. There was a queue of people waiting to collect rental cars at Dollar booth . Only problem was there were no cars for many of the passengers. We waited until 2am in morning to then be told there wasn't a car for us . I had to book a taxi to take myself and family to hotel arriving there at 3am . Had to then take another taxi back to the airport in the morning to see if they had a car for us which by this time they did . Was told Dollar would not pay or reimburse the extra cost of taxi fares . To say this was a stressful start to our holiday is an understatement. "

" Quite frankly I think Thrifty treated us poorly so won't use them in the future. "
" I was informed by counter staff that the car I ordered was unavailable so I had 2 options; pay a higher price for a bigger car or go to another terminal for the ordered car. Having just come off a 9 hour flight with 2 suitcases, we opted for the higher price which was the equivalent of an extra £91. We were far from satisfied and complained to Thrifty who don't seem to want to recompense us so we won't be using them again. "

Cars have 40,000 plus miles on them one was 50,000 and was told at the desk that they now keep them to 60,000 miles If cars are serviced and maintained mileage will not matter but they do not look after there cars as other companies do. Was not until a manager went and got a car from there Hertz rent a car stock and who owns Thrifty / Dollar that we go a car we could use. "

" You guys were easy to buy with but it was a nightmare when we got to the desk "
" When we arrived, we were told we needed to take our extra insurance for the car because it was a bigger vehicle, we were given no option. Given that we had taken this through Auto Europe believing it was fully insured this was frustrating. - $105 for Personal Accident Insurance - $38.49 for concession fee recovery - $139.86 for premium roadside recovery All of these charges we were told we had to take as extra because we were renting a larger premium vehicle. The car was filthy when we picked it up and it had errors all over the dashboard telling us that the parking sensors werent working and the sunroof was open (which it wasnt). We took it back and swapped the vehicle out next day, which was easy to do. "

" Had to change the vehicle 3 times!!! When we collected the mini van we were told 'you need to make arrangements to return for a viewing within 30 days' - I have emailed numerous times and each time was told by a 'manager' and given the same instructions, I needed to return the vehicle for inspection. I wasn't allowed to use a more local centre (Disney Car Centre) to take the car back and made me take time outta my vacation to come all the way back to the airport, go through tolls, fill the car up 'in case I couldn't drive back off with the same vehicle', clear out all our belongings and when I've arrived at the airport I was told categorically that it was never the case and I didn't need/have to do any of the above. I sent an email and it wasn't acknowledged until I email again as there was an engine fault on the vehicle. "

" The experience with Autoeurope was fine but would not go with Dollar again at Orlando. "
" Dollar had a reception office at Orlando Terminal C where we obtained our paperwork but we had to go to Terminal A to collect the car, carrying all our bags. On exit of the car collection depot we were prevented from leaving because the Dollar representative had not included the drivers on the paperwork. We had to leave the car and return to the Terminal A Dollar desk to have the paperwork corrected before we could return to the car and exit the facility. On returning the car we again had to carry all our luggage across terminals to get to our check in. Other members of our party had booked cars with Alamo that had car pick-up at the same terminal (Terminal A) as their arrival point. However, the vehicle itself was fine. "

" My brother has used autoeurope for many years with no issues. The issues are with the rental company/vehicle provider. "
" Firstly I have logged a complaint with Dollar and its parent company Hertz though given my experience, I believe nothing will be done. 1. When I went to collect the full size 7 seater suv they processed my request and sent me to the garage staff where they refused to give me what I paid for. After lengthy arguments they eventually gave me a Nissan Armada which on their website is described as a full size 7 seater suv. I got to my accommodation only to receive a warning message from my credit card company regarding unusual activity. Counter staff had charged me nearly $500 for PAI insurance and enhanced breakdown company. These products were never discussed with me nor the amount. There was nothing even on the electronic sign pad regarding this. I wasted a day and a half trying to resolve this and the only way was to make the 80+ mile round trip back to the airport to have this resolved. Dollar staff are doing this to lots of customers unknowingly, we spoke to a few who experienced the same treatment. Our vehicle with just over 10000 miles on the clock and a 2023 model then started to develop engine issues. We returned it for the safety of those travelling within the vehicle only to suffer the same challenges and arguments with staff and Hertz manager. Staff provided a Chevrolet Traverse, which was a midsize suv. This vehicle in the garage had low washer fluid levels so was not Road worthy. Staff then told us to take the vehicle next to it which was the same model. We were astounded when we noticed check oil message on dashboard. Eventually Hertz manager gave us a Jeep Cherokee Laredo which was a 6 seater, still not what we ordered or paid for. Autoeurope and all other companies should consider avoiding Dollar, Thrify and Hertz. I am currently in the process of contacting the district attorneys office in Florida regarding the common practices of theft from customers credit cards. "

After walking away from rental desk to collect car I happened to look at my agreement,to my horror there were charges of nearly $600 which I had not agreed too.I returned to desk and chargers were removed. Man at desk blamed auto Europe.. I have used Auto Europe for many years and never had any problems. I think this was dollar trying to get away with extras no one wants,sneaky!! If I hadn't checked my receipt for cost of petrol,I would have been stuck with a hefty bill. Will think twice about using dollar. "

" After a long drive from Norfolk to Heathrow and then a 9 hour flight to Orlando, what you don't need is a miserable 2 hour long queue to get through US immigration followed by a fairly flippant and uncaring car hire desk-jockey. Firstly he couldn't get his computer system to work, then his card reader didn't work, then the usual patter of, "You need an upgrade" because the car you rented won't take 4 plus luggage and you need a satnav and you need a toll-lane device. Having been through the "cattle grinder" at Orlando airport more than 30 times in the last 20 years I'm well versed to their little tactics, to bleed more money out of tired and weary customers, more often than not with tired and weary kids. TAKE MY ADVICE. Don't hire the satnav it's a ripoff, use your mobile phone with your data allowance. And don't take the ripoff toll-lane device, buy one from from Walmart or Publix, you then go online, register it and preload it with $20, adding the vehicle licence plate number. Then keep it, take it home after your stay and reactivate it when you go again. You will need it though in and around Orlando. As for the car hire experience...pretty mediocre with Dollar. So how it works is, after you've been through the laborious desk-jockey experience, you head outside and across the road into the garage area. Head for Dollar and show your paperwork to the booth staff. They then point to a row of cars, that are in your hire bracket. Sadly dollars line up of cars was shoddy, (you might be tired, exhausted and being screamed at by wife and kids, but check the car your taking.) out of 7-8 cars I looked at, 2 had defective seatbelt buckles! (Someone isn't checking the basic safety on these cars) two had no keys in them, 3 were too small for our needs, which left one ropey Chevrolet small SUV, which had chips and scratches all over the rear bumper. (NOTE.... take photos of any damage you see on the car, before exiting the garage) After a couple of days, of 40c heat and frequent torrential afternoon storms, it soon became apparent, that the air conditioning wasn't working well and the drivers side windscreen wiper had perished, which didn't bode well in biblical rain. Too be fair though after 5 days of putting up with this, I headed back to Dollar at the airport and they swapped the car, with no quibble. This time for a Nissan Rogue which significantly better. Would I recommend Dollar? Probably not, they seem to be in demise. I've been through Orlando MCO, more times than I wish to remember, and never been presented with such a ropey band of motors to hire. Thrifty are in the same group, so beware of them too. ... "

" The car would not start when I was 5 miles from where I was staying. I spent a long time getting through (in the heat of the day) to customer services who said I would have a 60-90 min wait. When I called back after 45mins my conversation had not been registered and I was told the ETA was another 60 mins. A passing electrician disconnected and reconnected the battery, rebooting the car's computer, and it started. I called Dollar to stand down the recovery. I felt that I could have been stranded for hours if the car hadn't started. I was offered a replacement car and the nearest Dollar was in Melbourne, a 40 minute drive away. I was told by customer services that I could go there. Fortunately, I called the Melbourne Dollar and they advised that they could not change the car because they are independent and that I would have to return it to Orlando Int., two hours away from where I was staying. I didn't do this but was forever nervous about whether the car would start(I knew how to fix it if it didnt). The car was old 2018 and had 52000 miles on the odometer.

" After a very long day being on flights for 10-11 hours I went to the rental car desk where there was a very long line of people to collect their rental cars and only 2 agents on the desk. After 2-3 people had been dealt with the female got up , took her coat and left only 1 agent to deal with the line of people that had got longer. I had an elderly man who was exhausted in my party and after I had waited for approximately 80 minutes I left in disgust and had to get a taxi which cost 80 dollars to get us to our destination. I was totally disappointed in the service from Dollar. "

" Although the Auto Europe side of the rental was reasonably efficient it all went downhill on arrival with poor and unwelcoming Dollar staff and indifferent attitude to customers. Poor quality of vehicles which were old, tired and high milers. Returning the vehicle equally dismissive as no one attended to us and we were told just to leave. Never again with Dollar. "
" Waited over an hour and half in the queue to get to the Dollar desk at the airport; everyone in the queue complained about the lack of counter staff - only two in attendance. All other car rental desks had no queues. When eventually seen at the desk we were greeted by abrupt staff whose only purpose was to frighten us into buying additional insurance. Gave them my email and telephone details to receive confirmation of the rental but none received. On picking up the vehicle although having pre paid a full tank of fuel the fuel gauge showed around three quarters. On returning the vehicle prior to flight home there was no one at the depot to see us. Had to go to seek out someone. Eventually a member of staff appeared and told us to leave the keys in the ignition and go to flight check in. On asking if it was possible to check the vehicle with us in attendance we were told again to leave and that they would check it later. Hardly a stress free and smooth experience - one we never wish to repeat and will never use Dollar again. "

" The car we were given on arrival after over an hour wait was 4 years old, very basic and noisy, after a week the wheel noise got worse and the car felt unsafe so we phoned Thrifty and was told to take the car back to the airport for a replacement which was over an hour away from where we were staying. the second car was much better quality but there was an oil warning light on which I mentioned to one of the staff but was told the car was ok to drive and to phone if any problems! What really annoyed me was I realized on the way back to our apartment that I had left my mobile phone in the first car, we turned around and went back to Thrifty to be told they didn't know where the car was and to contact there lost property department. My phone did eventually turn up 2 days later but the whole experience was stressful and several hours out of our holiday. "

They haven't put enough reps on the workstations so everyone is unhappy, tired and fed up. Eventually I am served and their rep tries to sell me insurance I have ALREADY PURCHASED! Judging by not just my experience but that of many other renters I noticed, maybe the rep should have given more information about how the US road toll system works and given me the advisable best option so that I didn't worry I would have escalating charges on completion of my holiday. I go to pick up my car and their rep in the garage is vague as to which one I can choose, so I go for the one with the most boot space. I find later that this is a tired old car with no sat nav, scratches around the car (no condition survey was undertaken before the car was released to me?!) and an entertainment system that sometimes worked, sometimes didn't and would reset itself randomly. At one point the rear door refused to close and I could not drive it safely.

" I arrived at the Thrifty rental desk 1 hour before I was due to collect the car & was told the car wouldn't be available until 7pm. I asked if there was a way to collect it without waiting & was told if I paid 20$ extra. I was definitely NOT TOLD that would be 20$ a day for 15 days. So my credit card was charged 319.50$.

As the pick up time is in the contract, the company should anticipate the number of pickups and have sufficient staff in place. After a long haul flight this is very unpleasant. At the desk I was given a different car as the one I hired wasn't available and big enough for 7 people (what I had booked) The extra cost for this was $1996.88. "

" Only one car remaining when we arrived Chevrolet Spark. This was not the size we paid for as it was smaller only took one case and would have been too small for 4 people as there was insufficient room in the back. With the amount of money we paid we expected a Nissan Versa or equivalent which would take 2 cases and carry 4 people. We did not go for the basic car we went for the next level up. On arrival into the airport we realised my wife had lost her wallet with credit/debit cards/cash. This was reported to the airport Alamo office within 2 hours. They told us that on inspection anything found would be recorded. We received an email telling us that nothing had been found but when the car went for cleaning they would do a thorough check. After arriving home I rang Alamo in Orlando airport again and they told me the car had gone back on hire without a clean. We are very disappointed that having reported the missing wallet within 2 hours nobody had checked it thoroughly and even more annoyed that they failed to carry out a thorough search as promised as we were told it was not cleaned before it was put back on hire. They told me that they wouldn't do another search until it came back off hire. We have used Alamo in the past numerous times and always been satisfied with the service and the vehicles. We would be grateful if you could look into this matter please. "

" Excellent value for money, compared with going to Alamo directly. However, if I had booked directly with Alamo, I would have been able to "skip the line" and go directly to the garage and choose my car, rather than having to go to the counter in the terminal building first. Fortunately, there was no one waiting at the counter when I arrived but there are times when there are long queues and if this had been the case it would have been frustrating. It would be a real benefit if you could negotiate a "skip the line" feature with Alamo. "
" The Alamo arrangements were excellent, as they usually are. The trim on the driver's side windscreen pillar wasn't fixed into place properly but fortunately it didn't rattle or vibrate, it was simply a bit of an eye sore. Not something I would expect with a Premium car (we were given a Lincoln). "

" I specifically booked and paid for a Lincoln Navigator for 2 weeks hire at a promoted rate for a Lincoln Navigator (not or similar) in early January 2022 for pick up in late August, when turning up at Orlando airport to be advised they didn't have any and tried to pass me off with an Infiniti QX80 or GMC Yukon, neither are to the same standard as the specific cost I'd paid for a Lincoln Navigator. I eventually was offered and accepted a Cadillac Esplanade (not even on their booking list of cars) as the best of a worst case experience, this car had some "problems" which came up on the screen 5 miles after driving away such as all mixed and low tyre pressures, continued minor warnings on dashboard about the car op without advice of what to do or seriousness, thankfully the car was ok and didn't break down, but overall very disappointed I did not receive the car I purposely paid the higher rate at the time of booking. Have used Auto Europe for at least 20 years and regularly Alamo or Avis for reliability of service, but not particularly satisfied with this experience.

" I have lost confidence in Auto Europe as despite booking and paying for all coverage as I thought, this turned out not to be the case. This should be made clear in the booking process. "
" I was very disappointed with Thrifty. When I went to the desk they said I hadn't paid for roadside assistance. They said that if I had a puncture I would have to make my own arrangements to buy a new tyre. If I broke down I would have to call a garage to tow and pay for this. I was really shocked as I thought I had paid for all coverage in the hire fee. When I have hired through Auto Europe before I have never had this problem. They charged $220 (£185) which they said I had to pay. They also wanted to charge for using toll roads which would have been nearly $500. I refused this as I knew about Sunpass. They were quite aggressive when I refused saying that I would end up paying more as there are a lot of toll roads. This is very misleading as my total toll road usage came to around $8.00 total. They were trying to make me fearful which I was upset about. They also said that the car was too small for 3 people and that I had to upgrade at additional cost. I refused and insisted that I spoke to a manager as this seemed ridiculous. He agreed. The car I was given would seat 5 comfortably. "

" Picked up a 7 Seat SUV Toyota Highlander from Double tree Hilton near Disney springs, drove just down road to Caribbean beach resort and engine management light came on with message return to dealer. Double tree office was shut so drove to MCO, met by very rude staff and with some huffing and puffing was given the keys to Honda Pilot, turned ignition on and engine management light came on, with maintenance messages displayed, went back to kiosk and was given keys to a Ford Flex, the car was all dented at the back and I told them I wouldn't except that and the lady said it's just wear and tear. I refused the car and eventually I was given a Dodge Durango. The Dodge was fine for 2 weeks when I got in it one morning it wouldn't start, after 10 mins I eventually got it going however all the the screen in the car was blank, no air con or anything. Went back to the Double tree office and was given a Chrysler mini van, lady at the office said it was brand new and only 400 miles on the clock, when I got to the car it was filthy, full of scratches and had 20,000 on the clock, there was a message displayed oil change required. Took the car as the had nothing else as I wasn't going far, the staff member insisted it was fine to drive. I told them to get me another car for the following morning, got a Ford Explorer with 28,000 on the clock. Not the best but at least it's safe and no problems so far. "

" I have been charged £222 for a tank of petrol that I agreed to pay when I collected the car. The rate was fixed at $4.50 per gallon which I was told was a great deal. Apart from the fact that this was $1.00 per gallon more than the standard price as I found out later, this would equate to the Ford Explorer having a tank that held 50 gallons of petrol! I have not signed for any other 'top up' payments or upgrades. This was the only car available to my Family & the Staff member of Dollar said that it is a free upgrade as they had no other car to provide me with in the Premium class that I had booked & paid for.

" Usually I have no issues at all with Auto Europe, but this time I had to deal with the rude and gaslighting clerk at Avis, and when I tried to call Auto Europe for help, the office was closed. "
" I had booked a Premium SUV (described as a Ford Expedition EL or similar). I had already checked in online and was advised to go to the "QuickPass" lane on arrival as this would save time. On arrival, there was no QuickPass lane to be fine, I had to queue in the regular line. Then at the desk, the agent quickly told me that I was getting a Ford Expedition. I doubled checked, as I had specifically booked a Expedition EL/Premium SUV to get the larger trunk. The Expedition (non EL) does not have the larger trunk, and is a "Full Size" class car. The agent then repeatedly cut me off and tried to point out that my booking was for an Expedition EL "or similar". A lower class of rental is not "or similar". I would have accepted the other options Avis lists on the page about Premium SUVs: a Chevy Suburban or GMC Yukon XL. I tried to explain that I understood what "or similar" meant, and that a standard Ford Expedition was not "or similar" in this context. I was then referred to a manager, and the truth came out - Avis did not actually have any Premium SUVs available and I would have to accept something smaller, and not what I paid for. The best they could do was a Infiniti QX80, which while nice, was not the spacious car I had requested for 4 adults, 2 children, and 6 suitcases. The manager did his best, by giving us a tank of gas and covering the tolls, but this does not make up for me paying hundreds of pounds more for a car with more space, and not receiving it. "

" I searched for the best price for car hire for my holiday in the USA. Auto Europe's price was not the lowest but the lowest price looked suspiciously low and the dealer had a poor feedback score, so I chose Auto Europe. Even then, the price was much lower than the competitio and I was a little concerned that something might go wrong but in fact the whole hire voucher, car pick-up and return went well. I will be happy to use Auto Europe again. "
" I was very pleased with the price I was quoted, so much so that I wondered if it might be repudiated at the car pick-up desk or that I might be directed to a distant off-site pick-up point because it was Budget DA rather than Budget-Rent-A-Car. In fact there was no trouble at all. I was given the car details and paperwork with no attempt at a hard upsell on car Group, insurance or anything else. The car was exactly the one on the voucher, not a different car in the same Group, which was pleasing. The car was clean and in good condition. Soon after driving off, the "Check Oil Level" warning message came up on the dash. I reported it to a local Budget site, who had no service facilities and directed me to a local oil service garage, telling me to keep any bill for a refund. When the oil level was checked, it was found to be at the minimum on the dipstick. Once checked, the warning message went out!. No oil was added. This recurred 4 times in the course of the hire; each time, checking the level caused the warning message to go out without any oil being added. When I returned the car, there was nobody to check it in. I stopped a passing man who appeared to be marshalling returned cars and tried to tell him about the problem, but he didn't appear to be interested. This didn't spoil my overall enjoyment of the car hire (or my holiday) but was just a bit of a nuisance. "

I rang to complain about these charges upon landing at Heathrow, March 29 2022 and approx 1110hrs. The female took details and advised she would send email for me to forward her details. Still nothing. Due to issues with autoeurope site printing my name as named driver we have been charged unfairly. I, my family, friends and all our potential guests will be informed of our experiences and how we have been let down by the company. "

" After 2 days of having the car when we tried to open it with the remote it wouldn't open ,so I rang Alamo to tell them that it wouldn't open they told me that they would have to come ad tow the car away and they wanted 180 US dollars ,we was in port orange at the time so we just didn't use the car then after speaking with someone that told us that it may be the battery, eventually we got a taxi to find a shop where we got a battery from but the man told us that it had a week signal ,any way the car did start ,but we was very worried about this happening again ,also there was no jack in the car in case we had any problem with the tires,so we ended up taking the car back on the 15 th of March because we just couldn't relax and was worried what we would do if any thing went wrong again the car wasn't due back till the 25th of March so not a very good experience. Also it's not the fault of auto Europe the problem is with Alamo also we filled the petrel tank up we did use a bit as we just got a bit lost getting to the airport drop off and they told us that it was ok ,then they charge £18 for that ,it was still on full, they told me that they would refund my card for taking the car back early ,,I did ring them first to ask if I could be refunded if I took it back ,and they said they would refund my card but I still haven't got a refund as yet .

" AutoEurope although fine to deal with did not seem to have the respect of the Dollar or at least the staff on duty and for that reason I'd be unlikely to use again. "
" The staff member at the desk would not honour my voucher in full, he said I HAD to have a mid-size vehicle and because I'd booked through a 3rd party they would not honour what was on my voucher. I went over to the pick up and tried to explain that a mid-size was not large enough as we had 2 bicycle bags to fit in, the 2 Ladies were extremely rude and repeated what the desk clerk said (repeatedly) . I had to go back to the desk to plead for the larger vehicle, at first they demanded more money but eventually relented and gave me a very small SUV - although I tried to point out that I also had selected a free upgrade while booking with Autoeurope but they repeated that the did not have to honour my booking as it had been made through a 3rd party. Altogether a very frustrating and unpleasant experience, We have travelled to the USA 13 times and this was by far the worst car rental experience, I will never use Dollar again! "

" Very helpful with getting booked in when arrived even thou flight got delayed , the one thing I don't like was when got to collection point a member of staff looked at my booking and said "any car from left side " when we went there all cars was full size not compact as I ordered, I went back explaining it's compact hire he replied yes that's ok any car from left side he replied. I took a Nissan Altima which was lovely on returning the car a day early due to flight change I got a receipt from staff charging me nearly $50 for fuel , I queried this as the person on check point asked me if I wanted to pay for fuel which I did. Which meant it would have been nearly $80 cost. The man at customer services said due to having a bigger car it was charged as per gallon . I stated I don't ask for this car but was told by their staff to take and already have paid fuel cost I shouldn't get any other charges . Eventually he said he refunded my fuel but have recently had a £11 charge from Alamo which I don't know why ???? "

" The only problem I have is compensation for the complications I was cause due to faulty vehicles. I pay too much with Auto Europe to have had the issues I did. And unfortunately I don't know how to go about escalating the issues. "
" I was highly disappointed. I had to change cars 3 times. This caused a majoy inconvenience when I had to drive to another state twice to change out the car the second and third time. On top of that the customer service I received was appalling. I waited nearly 45 minutes in line at initial pick up at the MCO location. The service rep that assist me was very kind. But once out to the first car I notice damage that wasn't reports and spoke with another rep on the outside and received unnecessary attitude. Changing the car out (twice) at the JAX location was pleasant, but unplanned due to issues with the vehicles. Upon return at MCO, I asked the drop off attendant a question and again received so much attitude. Not to mention I was charged for something I shouldn't have been and was given incorrect information. I had to involve the manager who credited my invoice and apologized for the service. I paid too much to have had the experience I had. I feel I should have been compensated more than just 1 free 3/4 tank of gas. I will be escalating this complaint. "

" Unhappy with the hire experience for the reasons outlined above - can AutoEurope assist with the refund for Toll charges? "
" I was persuaded to pre-purchase toll charges for $165 when I only used toll roads on 2 occasions during the trip - this should be refunded less actual toll charges. I thought I had purchased a Buick encore or similar SUV when I was given a Hyundai car - is this correct? We were unable to open the passenger door from the outside always having to open from the inside - very inconvenient. "

" In the past, if you were a member of Dollar Express, you could by pass the desk in the airport and go direct to Dollar for your vehicle, even if you booked through a third party. This saved a great deal of time. However, in future if you book through a third party you will not be able to use this service. In effect Dollar are forcing you to book through them rather than a third party. Will possibly need to look elsewhere rather than Dollar. "

" I will not use Thrifty again and I would not recommend them to anyone. "
" The car I hired would not start after a couple of days hire. I then spent the day thanks to thrifty trying several methods to get the car started before they finally sent a mechanic. He got the car started and told me to return it to the airport hire depot for a replacement. That was a full day wasted and very frustrating. At the airport I asked for my expenses for a battery to be reimbursed. I asked for 1 days credit on my car hire and also that I was returning the car on a nearly full tank. I was told no problem all would be sorted out at the end of the hire. On the final day of hire i returned the car on a full tank of fuel because I thought the initial agreement to return the car empty had been cancelled. Well I got a charge of over 40 USD for fuel that is after returning two cars on nearly full fuel tanks. No money back for my expenses and no credit for 1 days wasted car hire. I have formally complained to Thrift that was more than 5 working days ago. The complaint was acknowledged but I have heard nothing since. First time I have used Thrifty and certainly the last. "

" The queue to get the car took over an hour. The car hire company next door started helping the Budget staff as they didn't seem to know what they were doing. At the counter the Budget staff treid to sell us their toll road payment package which was $12 per day. Luckily I had been to Orlando before and knew that there were not too many toll roads so decided not to take the toll package. It was only after a few days when I realised that the toll package would have added an extra $168 to my trip. I spent $12 in tolls the whole 2 weeks I was there. This made me angry that Budget are conning people and misleading them. All these issues means I will never use Budget again. "

" Thought the process of hiring the car was seamless - auto europe was recommended, which is why I used them. Prices very competitive "
" In the main, everything ran incredibly smoothly - from the counter staff, pick up and return. Its obviously a well managed operation. The only small criticism I have to make is when I picked up - I was shown a selection of cars and just told to pick one (the keys were on the dash). I felt it would have been a lot better had someone been there to just take 5 minutes to show you around the car and how it worked. Instead you are just left to fend for yourself and figure everything out. Its quite stupid really in my view. "

With small children in tow this can make you under pressure and more vulnerable to being railroaded into upgrades etc which they take full advantage of!

" I have booked several cars with Auto Europe and on this occasion I booked three cars to cover the period of our stay in Orlando. The one thing I was not aware and I do not see in your particulars in that Alamo automatically cover the spouse to drive at no additional cost. Each of the three cars I have hired were at a rate to cover three additional drivers which was a cost I did not have to incur had I known my wife was covered. Perhaps Auto Europe could advise me why this is not made clear in their advertisement or if I have missed this please let me know where it is shown and accept my apologies for not seeing it. "
" On this occasion I was not asked if I wanted to upgrade but on this trip I hired two other vehicles through Alamo and each time the counter assistants by innuendo implied that the upgrade provided by Auto Europe with my voucher was not a real upgrade. Having hired many cars via Auto Europe I have not had any occasion to complain but when such comments are made by Alamo staff it does concern me especially when they indicate to a photo on a sheet and say something like "that's what you paid for and that's the upgrade they give there's no difference". In my view such comments are not good for Auto Europe and must make the hirer a little sceptical about the advertisement stating that you get a free upgrade. If it's not an upgrade it doesn't matter if it's free! I am equally sceptical when Alamo counter staff push upgrades that you do not need and can only assume they receive a commission. That having been said the car I received on for this particular period was an upgrade but Alamo stated that they were giving the upgrade for that day only. "

" I use autoeurope 3 times a year for a month at a time and the service and value for money are always excellent. It is not your fault the USA car hire companies will attempt to take extra money at every opportunity with UK customers. I read about it happening constantly. Fortunately I know to check for it and not leave until it's sorted. First time I've used thrifty but have used dollar previously. They will all do it given half the chance! It won't stop me using your service and recommending you to others. "
" Everything was fine until I dropped the car off and found an additional charge of $102. Went to kiosk. Gurl said had to be paid as airport charge. Said it was a late tax and she couldn't do anything. However after I made it clear I was not paying any extra charges she removed the charge. I then went to the desk in the terminal and got them to check and confirm there were no additional charges. I'm still concerned as there is a pending charge on my credit card from thrifty for £0.76. I'm assuming/hoping that will disappear and not increase, in which case I will be back in touch. "

" 1st car that I picked up the gauges in the car didn't work. I only found this out after driving out of the car park and into traffic which then I had to sit in while making a slow drive back to the rental drop off. I had to then exchange the car and complete more paper work which cost me an additional hour of my time. I paid for a fuel purchase option ($38) and tolls fees ($55) which seemed like a good deal until I found out that it only took $20 to fill the car with fuel and the toll charges were $1 per road which added up to about $10 of tolls for the trip. This is blatant miss selling and I will be making a formal complaint on this. I also paid for a GPS for the car. I was unaware this was charged at $16.99 a day!!! as I had already reserved the car with the GPS included in what I thought was the cost. If I had known this I would of just used my phone and paid the £5 data roaming costs and saved myself a considerable sum of money. The GPS cost are unrealistic and have been inflated to rake in money from the client, hiring the car was only £150!!!. Unfortunately it seems standard throughout the hire car industry to offer a cheap headline cost and then "sting" the client with options. Therefore I cannot offer any recommendation to friends family etc and in fact I will be recommending that they use a different hire company unless these grievances are settled. "

" As above with budget "
" Despite having previously booked there was utter confusion at the budget desk when we arrived. They had no cars ready for collection, and after a long haul flight, unacceptable. When we received the keys the car was filthy and the engine bonnet still warm. Obviously the car had just been delivered back at the pick up point. I complained and received a change of car which was still dirty but the range of scratches was alarming. I had to get the girl to check it over before I drove away. The counter staff tried to sell me more insurance telling me I was not fully covered, which according to your booking form I was. My experience this time round was highly unacceptable and I doubt if I would ever book again via budget, whilst at the same time I would have great reservations about booking via auto Europe. "

I spent 4 days on the phone with budget and didn't get the problem solved...we had to drive a faulty car and be worried that it will stop any time. Terrible! Will never do business with budget again.

Because I was not told I didn't know at all. The Hispanic lady behind the desk was rude. She told me they don't do refunds. I told her the man in the car park signed the ticked with a code to authorise it and for me to come to the front desk. She then went on to telling me off for not following instructions to bring back the car with little fuel as I had pre paid for it. Which I didn't know I had. After her colleague help her with the refund she told me off again, next time I use thrifty or dollar I should follow their instructions. I explained again I wasn't told about this when picking up the car. The man checking me in didn't explain much and just told me to put my card in for the returnable deposit. Her colleague understood what I said and apologised but the Hispanic lady continued to tell me off! I can honestly say there won't be a next time using thrifty/dollar rentals. "

" My only regret was the first car we picked was fine and we started to put the cases in the truck, then discovered that there was no keys for this vechicle, found this strange, if no keys remove or move car to somewhere else - otherwise apart from not being very clean, good, again however the indication on panel kept stating needed servicing, this was noted on our second day, fortunately for us we do not travel far, however milage should have indicated that a service was required. Returning the car was excellant and extremely quick - top marks for all the years going to Orlando this has been the best. ***** "

" Waiting time to be seen by an agent was excessive. Customer agent tried to sell an unnecessary upgrade. Additionally the free additional driver was not recognised and they tried to charge extra. Upon showing the paperwork the agent was unable to permit this and had to call a manager, who reluctantly agreed and waived the extra cost as he was unable to dispute the wording of the voucher. This took over 10 min to resolve. The car had not been properly cleaned and there was litter in the door pockets. There was minor bodywork damage when the car was collected. "

Once she'd been through the EZpass upsell, trying to resell already got insurance, return full 3 times and sat nav she became very condescending and abrupt. This is a real shame because everyone else we met were so helpful and professional and the experience overall was great but would consider not using Alamo again because of her attitude and tone.

" Felt mislead by Auto Europe after getting the car - I'd paid for a Jeep Grand Cherokee (or similar), but a Ford Edge was on offer from Auto Europe for £60 less. But Dollar class both of these as 'Standard SUV class'. In the event neither of these was on offer. The choice was a Nissan Murano (which I chose), or a Chevrolet Equinox, or something else (I can't remember). The Murano was fine, but if I had paid Auto Europe £60 less (for the 'Ford Edge of similar) - I would have been offered exactly the same choice on the day. This cannot be right. Auto Europe really needs to make clear the class of car that is being offered (as opposed to the exact model), and needs to have better information from Dollar about the likely choice on the day. "
" It was OK. The agent in Orlando did not speak good English and the cultural differences meant that it was difficult to get good answers to my questions. When I asked what car I was been given, she just said along the lines of "got to the parking lot - they will help you". She tried the usual trick of trying to sell me an overpriced pass for the road tolls, though the attempt to sell me one did not include the usual intimidatory threats about the consequences of not buying one from them.

" I needed to change the time of collecting the rental car by 2 hours later then planned, as my flight landed the same time I was meant to collect the car. I was told they wouldn't keep it after the time that was put down and i needed to pay another £100+ to change the time. I was told if i phone Alamo that they would not do nothing. I phoned Alamo to be told that they keep the car for 12 after the selected time and did not need to pay any more money. I was very disappointed that as a company there was no help in trying to change the rental time by an hour and half later then planned and was told I would have to pay this money or I might not have a car when i got to Orlando. I dread to think of the amount of people who fall into this trap. "

" We were extremely annoyed with the upselling tactics adopted by the man at the counter in Orlando. I know this is a thing with car rental staff but the fact that he blatantly lied to us has really infuriated us. He strongly advised us to take out a toll pass for a total of $109 plus tax. I said we did not want this having been advised by a friend who had recently visited Orlando. He tried to put pressure on us to purchase this and made out we were stupid for not taking this and the worst part is he told us each toll cost $10!!! We were in Florida for a total of 2 weeks and spent less than $10 on tolls the whole time we were there. He also made us take out an extra insurance for roadside assistance which was not necessary. He told us we would need it as there was lots of road works in the area. Again a total lie. Shameful behaviour quite frankly. "

" Very satisfied with Auto Europe but not with Budget. "
" Got a puncture on a Sunday afternoon & discovered there was no spare wheel but a liquid repair kit which after carrying out instructions failed to work. Phoned 24 hr helpline & spoke to a woman who was not very helpful & could only advise that we wait to be collected & taken to where she said was the nearest Budget collection point in Jacksonville some 135 miles away which was incorrect. Luckily I new a friend who lived nearby who came to our rescue & picked us up & took the punctured tyre to the nearest Wallmart to be repaired, which we paid for. Obviously with more driving to do on our holiday I couldn`t take the risk of driving too far with no spare wheel or repair kit so the following day I got through to Budget at Orlando Airport who advised me to drive to Ocala airport which was quite near & change to another vehicle which was slightly inferior but at least had a spare wheel. I hope you will re emburse me something as a sign of goodwill & I sincerely hope you will change your policy & change from repair kits to carrying a spare wheel because if I had been a woman on my own in the middle of nowhere it could have led to serious consequences.

" Would not use again. "
" Counter staff bit very helpful. We had an upgrade but didn't get one. He was vague about kind of car we would get. When we went to pick car up again asked about our upgrade and was told to just take a pick if the mid range cars ninuograde. No instructions from her. Car was all dented and I had to take pictures as she gave me no report on it to show it was dented before I got it. Just as well I took pictures as in return they queried all the scratches and dints.

" The service from booking to supply of car has always been exceptional... faultless. It goes without saying I will continue to use your services. "
" I have endeavor to use Alamo for all of my bookings as I found their services to be of the highest standards. Unfortunately, I cannot say this in regards to this booking. I found myself in the fortunate position of arriving earlier than expected due to shorter flight time and lack of wait at immigration and custom. I then had to endure approx 1 hour and 10 minutes of hanging around to be nearer the car collection time or alternatively incur charges for another days car hire, which I was not inclined to do. have always collected my car much later than the booking time, most recently in June, 2019 when due to unforeseen circumstances 38 hours!!!. So I would have expected some discretion in my favor for my loyalty as a customer, which regrettably did not materialized... such a shame!!!. "

" up on arrival to Orlando we arrived at the Budget desk where there was a que which can be expected as it is a busy time, however to wait 2 and a half hours for a vehicle after a flight of 8 hours was not acceptable. When we checked in we were told they had ran out of the category car I had booked and tried to give us a car of a lesser category, as I explained we needed a 7 seater mini van as there were 5 adults and a 3 yr old child. we asked for an upgrade but they said no to this option. then they allocated us a car and then gave it to some one else who arrived after us. when we finally got the vehicle after over 2 hours we went to where it was parked to find the car had not ben washed nor had it been cleaned out as they just wanted us gone, I complained but to no avail as there were no other vehicles available, totally disgruntled. We felt that they did not go out of their way to offer up an upgrade or find a vehicle quicker, as I said Budget new we were coming and the car should have been allocated for the time we arrived. "

" We were made to believe with our booking that we had full insurance but on arriving we was told by a very stern and abrupt man that we had the basic insurance that covered the bare minimum. We had to pay an extra $200 odd dollars to get the extra insurance to cover us against everything that we thought we already had. The car was tired and dirty inside. There was sticky stuff all Over the wheel and the windscreen was filthy. It's very dark in the parking garage so u can't see this till you leave and get into the daylight But once you leave in the car it's not easy to go back so we resorted to just cleaning it up ourselves. I won't be using auto Europe or dollar dm in the future or recommending them to others. I feel I was miss lead and ripped off over the insurance situation. "

" I might recommend Auto Europe but the fact that Thrifty has completely ruined our holiday I highly doubt it. "
" My rental car has been wrongly towed away (we were given a parking permit for the wrong parking space which we were unaware of). We were unable to collect the car from the impound because it's a rental so they would not release it to us. We have spoken to numerous people at Thrifty on numerous occasions, sent Twitter and Facebook messages and emails. We were finally told that Thrifty would sort it and the car would be picked up. However, we emailed the impound who told us the car has not been picked up. We informed Thrifty the minute our car was towed (on Tuesday) so it's absurd that the car still has not been collected. We are still being charged everyday for late return but we couldn't return the car because we were not allowed access to it! Really poor service from Thrifty who I feel is trying to get the most amount of money from us rather than helping us. We have spoken to so many different people on a number of occasions from our car rental company to explain what has happened. The last we heard was that they were going to deal with the situation and collect the car. However, we emailed the impound today who told us the car has still not been collected which is worrying because the costs will keep increasing until it's released. Thank you for your help and support so far "

" After a 10 hour trip from Glasgow to Orlando, I approached the HERTZ desk with the rental voucher only to be informed that I was due HERTZ an additional $660! There then followed a heated discussion concerning my booking that I had pre-paid many months before. The assistant at first was of little help but when he saw that I wasn't going to be paying anymore for the basic hire, he then called a supervisor quoted the details on the voucher and then informed me that there had been a mistake. This took over 20 minutes to resolve and could have been done much quicker had he been interested in getting me on my way rather than getting more money from me. I did pay $189 for my son in law to drive the car and $56 for a full tank of fuel to save me refilling the tank before returning the vehicle. Other than this unpleasant assistant , the car was great, it fulfilled my requirements perfectly and was a pleasure to drive. "

" Auto Europe have been excellent and would use them again but would think twice if it was a car from Alamo that I was booking. "
" Had a flat tyre which my son and I changed for the spare. We later called Alamo who told us to go to the local enterprise agent who would swap out the car. We had to get there before 6.00pm or we would have to phone again in the morning. When I checked the time it was 6.10pm so I left it till the next day. Tried phoning Alamo but I kept getting phone number not right. My wife tried as well but got the same response. Eventually we just went to enterprise who did not know why we would have to phone Alamo as they had the email from the previous evening. They asked if we were happy with the vehicle and we said yes we just wanted the tyre fixed as I was not happy driving without a spare. I was told to go to tyre kingdom who would sort it out. We went to tyre kingdom who checked the tyre and told us that a new tyre was required and they needed a code from Alamo prior to doing the work. We waited over a hour and were told that Alamo had not responded to the request. After another wait we went back to enterprise and asked them if they could get the code. The branch manager tried to contact Alamo but had no success either. We then told them that we would go and get something to eat as my wife is diabetic and her sugars were getting low. We told them that we would be back after mid day and we wanted this situation sorted. When we came back we were told to go back to tyre kingdom who had the tyre ready. Tyre kingdom changed the tyre over and put the spare back in place. We were told that we were lucky that the spare had not popped off as the tyre pressure was over 50lbs. I told Alamo that I was not happy about their level of service in a survey that I got after contacting their 24hr road assist but have received any reply from them. We lost an entire morning plus half an afternoon of our holiday. I would give 10 out of 10 for enterprise and tyre kingdom but 0 out of 10 for Alamo. "

" I found your site via travel supermarket. I have used other sites before but yours seemed to be more use friendly and booking the car was easy. I would say that after my experience with THT Combo, you should clarify their terms etc before listing them on your site "
" When I purchased this deal I understood that it included a tank of petrol, my wife would be covered to drive and we were protected for all insurance claims. When I collected the car, the guy at the counter who started off friendly enough, got a bit surly and told us that the insurance didn't fully cover the car and that we should upgrade. His deal was over a hundred pounds more than the basic price from them so I was a bit put out. He also said that we had to fill the tank before returning the car but when I challenged him, he agreed that the fuel was included. My contract said that he car would be a Focus or similar but we had a Fiesta so was smaller and when we returned the vehicle, they charged me $20 for late return because we were about 45 mins late. This seemed excessive because it just went into a big line of cars waiting to be cleaned ready for the next person that hired it so they had lost no revenue from it being late. It seemed that they were using any excuse to get more money out of me. I would think twice before hiring from Dollar/Thrifty car hire again. "

" Second time we've used Dollar at Sanford. They didn't have the RAV4 we thought we were getting and the same "grade" car was too small to take our luggage. Dollar offered us a very good upgrade deal (just paid for a full tank for fuel) but once we arrived at our destination I spotted some nasty scratches on the bonnet/hood which were not on the manifest so I was worried that we might be "charged" for them. However we haven't been so Dollar must have been aware but it would have been nice to have been told before we left the airport. "

" Following morning I spoke at great cost for international calls to the worlds most unhelpful arrogant agent in the UK who basically told me it was all my fault for not entering a flight number in the booking form which so happens to be not a mandatory requirement to complete the booking...rather than attempt to sort something out with Enterprise for me he just told me there was nothing he would do and I was going round in circles. Marvellous job from the young man and his manager whom he consulted... Finally I attended Enterprise locally in Boca Raton who called Orlando and said my booking had been cancelled with them and a note added to my file that AUTOEUROPE SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE AND NOT CHARGE ME. Then offered me another rental at over $500 which I declined. To my great surprise I was charged the rental fee after the 24 hr pick up time had expired. Over £300 in car hire completely gone plus over £100 in phone charges plus another £300 for further car hire (Not via Enterprise or Auto Europe) I may add. Very unhappy customer here if that is a true representation of your company then I would be ashamed. "
" Plane diverted to Fort Lauderdale instead of Orlando. Called Enterprise in Orlando to explain situation, said I needed a car in Fort Lauderdale not Orlando, Call was put through to some automation service where I couldn't do anything. Approached Enterprise desk around midnight. Signs on desk saying no cars available. When speaking with counter staff they informed something could have been 'done' if I'd booked direct. But as I had a voucher with Autoeurope I had to talk to them. I was also informed Enterprise Orlando are using a different 'system' to Fort Lauderdale so nothing could be done via 'their' system... "

" I drove from Orlando to Key West and en route I got a large crack in the windscreen. I reported the issue to Thrifty who checked with the office at Key West airport that they had a same size car I could swap with as I took out full insurance with zero excess. It was confirmed they had the same size car but on arrival they tried to give me a Toyota Yaris (economy class) when I was driving a Nissan Versa (compact class). They tried to insist it was the same class even when I showed them on their own website which confirmed they were two different rental classes. They went on to say they had no other cars in that class. I told them I could not take a Yaris as there was no way I could get my wife, kids and all the luggage in it. It was impossible. Both the representative and his manager said they would not give me a bigger vehicle unless I paid another $40 per day to do so. They said my only other option was to drive 2.5 hours up to Key Lago to see if they had a suitable replacement which I was forced to do. They were happy for me to take a car with a one foot long crack in the windscreen all that distance. They never even checked with Key Lago there was another vehicle available. Key Lago depot were great and sorted the issue out very quickly but all in all not a good experience "

Also the service has been very good, since I have had replies within few hours after questions I have sent. I would highly recommend Auto Europe, and have been doing so, to all the people around me. "
" There are several things I was not so happy with, and to name those; - I did not receive the car I was expecting, having ordered Dodge Grand Caravan 7 pax. When I arrived at the airport, I was told I would have a newly car, and was told where it should be. When I went there, it turned out that location was far away, so it would take some half an hour to get that car. - So I received some Toyota car, which had been droven some 27 thousand miles, if I remember it right, it can be it was kilometers, but I presume miles, but 27 thousand was the mileage. So it was too much driven, for my expectations, and had no iphone connection. So I was not happy. -The guy who was serving there said originally there was no other car available, in the category I rented. When looking better, he found another one, which turned out to be a fine car. But not as I had ordered. - I had booked a booster seat but he said none was available. After looking better, he found one. So it ended well but ..... - when returning the car, the woman who was there when we returned the car was rude, and had no time to talk to us. She asked another woman to talk to us. She was polite. I had been asking her what to do regarding tolls I did not pay at site, since I had no coins. However I had sent a money order to pay for the toll, which was at Seidel road, at exit 11 on April 20th around 10.30. So I told the lady about that. I also called the company that takes care of the tolls for Hertz. - still I received some penalty for that, although I had paid all I was supposed to pay. Since it was a low amount, I did not do anything more about it, not worth it. It was 7,70 USD. - additional driver could not be added afterwards, without going to the office, and then it had to be for all of the rental time, but I could not choose some five next days. So all over, I was not so happy with the rental with Hertz. "

" collecting the car from Orlando import and delivering it back was hassle free. My only comment was the car had relatively high miles for a rental vehicle(42000) however there were no issues with it during the 4 week rental period. "

" When i book the car online everything is well.when I arrive a the advantage counter I just feel that they trying to pull a fast one. There are always people complaining . I don't know if is you or a different company in the USA. Hopefully you can sort it out before next year. "
" I'm a regular customer with you, but for the last two visits to Florida i have been served at the advantage counter. The first time they tried to add many things on and i had to sort it with the manager. This time they seemed a lot better. I asked if there were any extra charges they said only the fuel and they would Email me the bill which was 58.70 dollars. They have not sent a bill and on my card there is another charge of 56.72 for no reason. I will be taking it up with my card company. "

" Alamo used to be our favorite but their customer service is going down hill. "
" When picking up vehicle...they had none of the class we reserved but the next class up was parked in the full size SUV slot. Normally, when this happens we are told to just take 1 of those since they ran out but the manager on duty at time was so rude to us and would not let us take 1. He made us wait and wait til full size became available. We also had alot of issues with it. The engine lights etc kept coming in during our rental and when calling Alamo...we had to drive hours out of way on road trip to various Alamos and no one had full size SUVs - the Tallahassee airport didn't even want to help us and were lazy. I had to CALL Alamo myself for more help. "

" Totally confused when picking up the car in carpark. A staff there would help a great deal. "
" There was a long queue to pick up the car. The staff was pleasant and friendly enough but I was taken back by the fact that the car wasn't there ready even though we had it booked online. When picking up the car in carpark, there was no members of staff insight to help with enquiries. Total confused and unsure of what to do. In the end, got help from another fellow traveller. "

" Auto Europe replied very quickly to a question about the rental. The price was very good and all inclusive (we hate all the extra add ons). I would go to Auto Europe first before any other brokers now. "
" The staff were efficient and completed the formalities quickly so that we didn't need to hang around any longer than necessary after a long journey. They did not try to sell us any more insurance etc. Their rep, Masood Jan recommended an upgrade at a good price which we accepted and we thoroughly enjoyed driving our Cadillac for four weeks. Return at the garage was very well organised. "

" I am very careful in my dealings with car rental companies in airports as, sad to say, they all want to charge you more for nothing. On this occasion we agreed to an upgrade but the charges were not the same when it came to paying as to what I was just told verbally. I challenged this and he said it was additional charges but could not explain for what! No doubt some people just pay as they are tired and want to go on their way. Anyway he recalculated and we got back to the correct figure. The rep suggested I bring the fuel tank back empty and told me the price per gallon which seemed OK but did not tell me the charge was $8.99 per gallon to do it! Fortunately I am aware of this scam and said I would bring it back full which I did. The car also had some damage to the front which I didn't think was very good given the amount I had just paid. I don't blame the rep for this just the Companies at airports who try and take advantage of vulnerable customers and the sooner the whole industry is regulated the better. So overall, no better no worse than most car rental experiences I have had. "

" The counter staff tried to bully and intimidate me into buying a sun pass at $10 per day, which would have added $200 to my bill, even after repeatedly telling them I didn't want one, they told me the tolls were unmanned and I couldn't pay cash, i've been going to Florida for the last 18 years so I knew they were lying. I actually paid a total of $8 tolls in my whole stay a difference of $198. They also tried putting pressure on me to rent a sat nav at $20 per day. Laughing at me for refusing and asking if I knew where I was going. I never told them I was a regular visitor to Florida but I suspect they make a lot of money out of first time visitors with their sun pass scam and sat nav rental, I will never use them again, they are nothing more that a bunch of deceitful thieves that I presume will get paid commission for duping tourists into buying products that aren't needed.

" Was given some slightly misleading information at the rental counter about the drop off time being adjusted (as I collected the car later than I'd indicated), plus the drop off was confusing, as I was expecting an agent to come and check the car out, but they were planning to do it after I'd left and email me the results.

" The vehicle was lovely but the additional billing seemed very underhand and something that needs addressing with Dollar/Thrifty. "
" I'm disappointed with Dollar Plus who had placed premium insurance on my hire vehicle without informing me of this fact. Although the customer agent was initially helpful at the time of renting, he made no mention of the additional charges for premium insurance and I was told to sign for the vehicle. To my horror I was billed $147 dollars on return with the vehicle. It took me 30 minutes to resolve the issue with the team and then they asked me to contact customer service by telephone. I refused to do this and after speaking with the manager they agreed to refund my credit card. "
