Cup holder FILTH

WORST CAR RENTAL FROM DOLLAR CAR RENTAL AT CHARLOTTE AIRPORT. ANTS ANTS ANTS FILTH !!! Let's start with getting in the car & no washer fluid warning light. Oil maintenance warning. Had to have the fluid filled & wait. Make matters worse ANTS ANTS ANTS CRUMBS DISGUSTING !!!! Called customer service with attempt to get assistance. Spoke with customer service & put on hold , the they hung up on us. We called the Greenville/Spartanburg Dollar Car Rental since it was close to where we were. We explained the situation and we heard ..." no not again" and were told we had to drive the car back to Charlotte Airport Dollar Car rental. CUSTOMER SERVICE IS TERRIBLE !!!! see photos of the FILTH ANTS

Time for the line....

All the reviews in the last 6 months are accurate. Long lines. Rude attendants. I'm only here because this is what my company contracted. I'd have gone to the counter next door if I had a choice. To make it even better...they said, "Pick any car in Zone 3." Ok. Great. Walked out to Zone 3. No cars. But there was a line. In the sun. Waiting for them to bring cars back from the wash. CLOWN SHOW!

I strive to be a low-maintenance traveler, no matter whether I am traveling for business or…read morepleasure. I've been an Alamo Insider member for many years, a membership that usually provides me the ultimate convenience upon landing--walking straight to my assigned car and heading out on my trip with zero friction, and I reserve my vehicle ahead of time using the Alamo app. While Alamo typically nails this "easy" experience, my recent stop at the Raleigh-Durham airport didn't quite deliver the "easy" experience I've come to expect. Upon landing, the Alamo app indicated I'd still need to visit the counter for a car assignment. RDU still requires travelers to board a shuttle bus for transportation to the rental car lot, but thankfully, the buses run frequently so we didn't wait long. When we arrived at the lot, I was mildly discouraged to see a line snaking out of the office with only one customer service rep on duty. However, kudos to the on-duty manager for quickly recognizing the queue and offering to process several reservations at the adjacent National desk. The customer service rep who helped me was great at getting our trip back on track -- I had my license, credit card, and reservation number ready-to-go and they didn't try to push any "add-ons" like the collision damage waiver or satellite radio, which I appreciated (but am sure that Alamo's corporate overlords at Enterprise Holdings will be disappointed to read). I was, however, somewhat frustrated they didn't have the full-size hybrid sedan I originally requested, especially since I had a lot of driving to do. (At this point, I'm reminded of the Seinfeld episode where Jerry exclaims in exasperation: "You know how to take the reservation, you just don't know how to hold the reservation. And that's really the most important part of the reservation: the holding!") I was initially assigned a Kia K5 from a lower vehicle class, which showed significant wear and tear and several dings upon inspection. When I returned to the office to request a different vehicle, the rep handled it professionally and quickly found a 2026 Toyota Camry hybrid with less than 3,000 miles on the odometer. The rest of the rental went smoothly -- the nearly new Camry performed perfectly and the drop-off process was a breeze. While it wasn't the "straight to the lot and go" experience I usually enjoy, the staff's hustle, politeness, and willingness to fix the vehicle issue was definitely worthy of a 4-star review.

Located right outside RDU terminal 2, shuttle ride is 5 minutes. Picked up my car very late and was…read moregreeted by Vincent who was manning the night desk. He was very pleasant and helpful.

Two stars is pushing it, but even though the staff was overwhelmed they mostly were courteous and…read moretried to help. The price was my reason for choosing EZ. The overall experience is why I won't be going back. This is also the Advantage Car Rental office, so my review applies to them as well. First: The shuttle bus took a half hour or more to come and pick me and another customer up. There were at least 2 or 3 each of the competitors shuttles coming by in that same time frame. The shuttle driver did not help the customer's with their bags. Never saw that before. He was more interested in talking to a pretty young coed he was dropping off than helping the other customers. Then: There was one clerk in the office. I came in with 4 other customers, and easily waited 30 minutes to get my car. He was thorough and polite, but alone and overwhelmed. Shame on you management. Thirdly: I checked the car out before I drove it off the lot, but it was a black car in a poorly lit lot, and was not sure the real condition of the car until the next morning. Luckily there was no external or internal damage to the car. The car proved to be OK, although there was a lot of tire noise at medium speeds. Sounded like a bad tire to me. Lastly: I was returning the car very early on my last day in Durham, 545am. I pulled onto the lot, the office was lit up and unlocked, but nobody was home. I walked around the building, knocked on the office door, called out, etc.. No answer. Finally a different shuttle driver than my first experience showed up, checked out my car, loaded my bag, apologized for no clerks, and drove me to the terminal. He later even emailed my receipt, as there wasn't anyone to give me one at the lot. The whole experience - a major fail by this provider, in my opinion. It was not worth the few dollars saved. Avoid if possible.

AVOID EZ Rent-A-Car and Advantage Rent A Car!!!…read more We booked a reservation online, here is summary of our experience. 1. Placed a $200 hold on credit card on top of our reservation cost of ~$230. Total ~$430. 2. Pressure you to get insurance by scare tactics. Additional cost of $29-$49 a day. Adds up to $475 if we caved into their scare tactics. I witness another person added an additional of $245 to their original reservation. 3. Once you decline their insurance, they continue to tell you in your face that you're making the wrong decision, and you'll _REGRET_ your choice and you'll be VERY SORRY for declining the insurance. And it'll haunt you every day for your stay... 4. They make you feel like they'll find a way to charge you for every little problem. So we made sure to inspect the car and made them aware of every little dings and scratches that are already on the car. AVOID THIS PLACE IF YOU WANT YOUR RENT-A-CAR WORRY-FREE.

When I asked what the fees were for, I was told "daily fees". They did ask me if I wanted toll coverage and when I asked if there were tolls in the area I was going to in, they immediately said yes. There were in fact ZERO tolls. When I called the next day after reviewing the "fees", there is only a number that connects you to support in another country. They could not help with anything, including offering a phone number to the location. They recommended I just drive back to the location (100 miles Additionally, they sent me out to find the car myself in the dark with my two small children. When I couldn't find the car due to lack of signage, no one would help me. They just pointed in a general direction and treated me like an inconvenience. Shoutout to the one amazing employee who finally helped. I was in tears leaving the location.

Not gonna lie...I had low expectations. Planning in Raleigh you have to take a shuttle to the…read morerental car area, which seems odd considering how small the airport is. Most of the brands are in cahoots with each other so you have to really pay attention to the shuttles since they're picking up for three different rental car agencies at once. Once we got to the rental car area, I was told they had no small cars, which was odd because I reserved a full-size, I asked what size car is my reservation and he explained it was a full size which even made less sense, he said "I have a truck or a minivan", I said "I'll take the truck." He gave me the hard sell to pre-pay for gas and to pay for insurance, which are a scam as we all know, and told me to walk out to space F24 to grab my truck. Walked out in the dark at 9:30 at night dragging my luggage across the parking lot only to find the "F"24 is empty. When I went back, he was very confused and I had to wait while they "washed" my replacement rental. All in all it took almost an hour for me to rent a car from a small airport, which makes little to no sense to me.

Than the printer didn't work at the computer our guy was using so he had to wait for the neighboring worker to finish the reservation they were working on the use the computer and then print ours.... Then we get the car and had to wait 20+ minutes in the line to exit because some scanning device they used wasn't working. Horrible experience and a lot of time wasted.
