I wish I had the option of zero stars!!
The manager Ebrahim is the rudest man I have ever met. I will never use Budget again because others have been writing the same thing for years and they clearly don't care.
I made my reservation on Costco, was later than 60 minutes to pick up because of Thanksgiving traffic delays.
When I got there he told me he doesn't have my size car available, he gave it away because I was late. I told him we are a family of 5 and need a decent sized car.
He immediately told me he would send me to the location 2 miles up the road. I told him I was already late and had a wedding and had to go. He kept telling me they'd pick me up and are only two miles up the road. 25 minutes later they aren't there so I ask him to give me whatever car he has and I'll make multiple trips with my family if needed. I can see he is already pissed at this point.
As we are starting the process, Leslie from Montgomery shows up. I apologize to her and tell her I can't go with her because she showed up so late and I have to get to a wedding. She carries on to tell me she told Ebrahim it would be a while before she could come and she told him the car doesn't have gas, she would have to stop. I tell her in front of him that he didn't tell me that, just kept saying she would be right there.
She left and we went back to my reservation, he is now charging me $30 more for the cheapest car! I asked him why he wouldn't just honor the reservation I had, and he said because it's a holiday weekend. I stated that isn't fair, and he threw his pen, told me to get out, to try to catch Leslie because he "has no car for me." And that I should try to come back tomorrow, which was thanksgiving...
He refused to talk, stood there with his arms crossed refusing to serve me! I took pictures of him standing there with his arms crossed but can't figure out how to add them here.
Luckily I ran outside and caught Leslie in the parking lot. In the car I was shaking because of how rudely I was treated. Why? Because my plane was late and there was an accident on 71!
Please do not enable this company and man to treat their customers so poorly. read more
