avis = budget car rental. So, I had a great front desk experience with the front desk clerk. Only problem at that time was it started snowing. I got the vehicle home alright. As I was packing the car later, I noticed the tires where bald, so I waited to leave the next morning due to the snow. I was traveling to phnx. az. and I realized I was going to be about 2-3 hours late turning the car in. The clerk at fort smith said if I was going to be a little late to call the destination to let them know. I did that and the office said they couldn't do anything about it and that the few hours late would be more than the cost of the daily rental. I got to the office at 5pm. and the office was closed. I turned the car in the next day with the clerk saying I would have to call ark. to see if they could do something about not being charged he couldn't do anything, therefore I was getting the runaround. Also, I filled the tank to full and was charged a non fueling charge. I called ark. to talk to the mngr. and she wasn't in, and she would call me when in. I received no phone call and called back the next day and talked to the manager. She informed me it took to long for her to do anything about it and she could give me coupons to make up for it. I informed her if the tires were not bald I would of taken a chance and left earlier. she again said sorry she couldn't do anything about it and would give me 25 dollars off coupons for the next rental. I got stuck with a 200 dollar extra charge at a time when I needed it most. a 2 day trip cost 601.00. I should of listened to friends and family and went with Enterprise. I've never ever had bald tires when renting a car. I thought I was renting with Avis, but found out they are the same company. I will never ever rent again from them, and will tell everyone I know to just go with Enterprise. read more
