My husband and I came into down via Sacramento International Airport a couple of days ago. When we…read morewere down there, the first car that we tried was full of cigarette smoke, being that I have such an asthmatic/allergy to cigarette smoke, I asked to be switched. The gentleman there was kind and gave us a small Subaru( but said it was mid-size) and it was ok. Got us to point A to point B. We could feel every bump in the road and the seats were super hard. But, we were grateful that God gave us a car to help us get from point A to point B. Then this morning, it was raining; so we started to use our windshield wiper blades, and realized that one of them didn't work. Seeing out of the windows while it is raining, would be a definite plus. So we stopped in at this budget here; and a gentleman named Mike, helped us out and got us a RAV4. Switched us out quickly which we were thankful for. Now we had to fill the other tank up, and we did as we promised. So now we have a comfier vehicle, one that sits up higher; and we don't have a vehicle that we can feel every single bump in the road. So next time you are at this Avis/Budget place, ask for Mike. Super nice and awesome gentlemen!!

An upgrade is only an "upgrade" when it has perceived value to the customer…read more I reserved a vehicle to be picked up on 9/09 and returned on 9/15/18 and when I arrived at my scheduled time to pick up said vehicle I was told, "Sorry, we only have this left, take it or leave it." Well I had reserved a full-size car what I got stuck with was a mini-van and I was told it was an upgrade. Nope, sorry, not sorry, I don't need a buttload of seats . . . but got stuck with it b/c I was told, "Take it or leave it!" I figured, crap, I can deal with it for a few days as I was on my way out of town. Well, I returned into town on 9/12/18 and began trying to call the local office around 2 p.m. to trade this sucker in as I had paid for a full-size car thru 9/15/18. No one would answer the phone at the local office and I kept getting forwarded to the national customer service line. I did speak to someone at the national office and was told try calling the local office again. WTF? Okay, still no one answering - and don't even try to do anything at an airport rental location unless you have some sort of plane ticket confirming that you actually traveled - WTF x 2 !!?? So after various unsuccessful tries at contacting someone from local office again that I rented it from I tried on-line chat with Budget national office, and they told me to call the 800# and have them deal with it...UGH!!! Well, still SSDD. Fast forward to Thursday, SOS and didn't even drive the thing, beast, monster gas-guzzler. So now it's Friday morning and was hopeful once again and called the 800# for Budget customer service and was told by Jose, "Sorry but you need to talk to the location in which you rented the vehicle from." I wanted to say, "Listed here Jose, I am unable to contact them as they're not answering the phone." Jose had suggested I drive up to the location and see about exchanging vehicles that way - double UGH!! I don't want to drive all the way up there for bupkiss, zilch, nada b/c this thing gets shit gas mileage. So I'm stuck and it sucks - I've paid for a useless rental until Saturday 9/15/18 but I'll be damned if I return it early out of mere principle. DON'T RENT FROM THEM is my advice - you'll have your car that you reserved early jacked right out from you and may not have anyone to assist you in getting another more acceptable vehicle. What a load of BS! An upgrade is only an upgrade if they're is some benefit for the renter. This is more of a punishment to me than an upgrade period. The gas mileage sucks and oh yeah, it's a fricking minivan. (No offense to the mini-van or those who own one, but if I would have wanted a minivan I would have purchased one or at least reserved a minivan.

Got there a couple hours before I was due to leave and SURPRISE! They required a credit card. The staffer pointed to a small print notification taped to the counter, but that information wasn't the same as what was posted on the website. I told her I'd rented here before without a credit card and she said that wasn't true. It wasn't the fact that they don't take cards that turned me off the place. It's the fact that she denied that I'd rented with a debit card in the past. Especially since she's the one who always rented to me. This is the kind of thing that loses business.

The rental went without problems at the desk but the card did leave my sight. The VERY NEXT DAY, the fraud dept. at AmExp contacted me and asked if I had charged a resort in Mexico to my card. I told them that I had not. They removed that charge from my account and closed that account. They asked me about when I had used the card last and if it had ever been out of my sight. I told them that I hadn't used the card in months and that it has always been in my wallet EXCEPT when I used it at Redding Airport's Hertz counter to rent a car. That isn't proof that someone at the desk skimmed my info off the card, but it is very suspicious and I'd warn anyone using Hertz in Redding to NEVER let your charge card out of your sight.
