Scam Artists
Kyle S.

Brief Summary: This is a predatory Orlando business targeting travelers. Upon arrival they tell travelers they cannot honor their original car rental reservation and must instead make a new reservation at the current day rate, which is hundreds of dollars higher. Details: The car rental agency operates under the following names: MEX rent a car, NEXTCAR, Facility rent a car. Zoom rental car, Stride rent a car. While they use a variety of names, in reality it is all the same business and location. When travelers arrive, the perpetrators will claim that their reservation wasn't processed by the original booking site (Expedia, Travelocity, Priceline, Booking.com, etc) and that they no longer have a vehicle available. They will then tell travelers they must cancel their original reservation and rebook with one of the "other companies" on site at the current daily rate, which is hundreds of dollars higher. Why it Matters: I was on the receiving end of this predatory scam and witnessed them employing the same bait and switch tactic on every other person who arrived to pick up a car. I spoke with other travelers who told me they were coerced into paying 4 to 5 times the cost of their original reservation. These were often people who couldn't afford to do so and were financially vulnerable, but felt like they had no other choice but to comply. The company poses as a reputable agency but in reality they are targeting and deceiving unwitting travelers and extorting them for higher prices when they no longer have an alternative. Impact: Travelers at the location are exhausted, vulnerable, and still being preyed upon every day. These people had small children, elderly parents, and important life events they were trying to get to. It's a scam designed to force people to accept a substantially higher rate under duress. I have never encountered a situation like this in any other city or country I've traveled to. The fact that a business like this is being allowed to continue operating in Orlando is an embarrassment to the entire city, which relies heavily upon tourism. Expedia, Priceline, Booking.com and other booking sites should remove this company's listings immediately and report the operator to the Orange County Consumer Protection Office: Email: fraudhelp@ocfl.net Phone: (407) 836-3111 2450 33rd St., 2nd FL Orlando, 32839-8726 https://www.orangecountyfl.net/NeighborsHousing/ConsumerProtection.aspx

Booth to pick up keys after you manage to argue with rep

Horrible! Never again! Scam company and they charge for insurance you already have! They even said they don't use Canadian insurance companies even with more insurance coverage than they offer! Charge after charge! Customer service horrible no care attitude! Every other client renting left upset and mad with same complaints!

ALL of us stranded outside NEXTCAR (aka Mexi-rental) when we did not get a car that we RESERVED.

PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU DO BUSINESS with this company. This is completely unacceptable! I paid for my reservation to Expedia, and NEXTCAR cancelled my reservation as I stood in front of their register. We had NO vehicle for the duration of our stay in Orlando during Christmas week. Every company we tried was sold out. (Avis, Hertz, etc) I did not cancel my reservation. The agent told us we needed add'l insurance, even though we were covered by our credit card. This seemed SCAMMY.. Then he said we had to pay a $2500 DEPOSIT, and brought out a CC swiper machine FROM THE BACK OFFICE! My husband snapped a pic of the guy & he got mad & HE cancelled our reservation! On the spot! We had no car for our trip. We LYFTed to our destination. This company is a fraud, and EXPEDIA is the middle man. I wish Id read the review on GOOGLE. Nearly every review says it's a scam. They go by several names- NEXT CAR , Mexi-Rentals & Stride is the company that emailed me. Why is Expedia booking our reservations through this horrible company? How can Expedia be trusted? We were among at least 4 other parties of people left stranded at the site. I am nearly certain that this company that Expedia does business with is illegal. I have photos of employees & all the customers that were left stranded for the holidays.

This agent was so rude and slow!!

SCAM BEWARE!!!!! They are scamming people here! I've never gone to a rental car and had them tear apart my car insurance. They took pictures of my entire policy and also declined to give us a car unless we paid for their insurance. They made me and my kids all wait in there for over 2 hours! DO NOT RENT A CAR FROM THEM! The "good" reviews are all fake!!! Real people know this place is GARBAGE!!!!

Original booking fee minus security deposit

Two weeks later, still waiting on my security deposit refund ?! Never mind the rest of my complaints, can't get through to anyone, no replies to emails to them or the corporate co.

Love it when someone is on their game!…read more Had to write a review for this location specifically mentioning the person who helped me hook up my trailer. I rented a 6'x12' trailer for a move back north. The process at the counter was seamless then I was sent out to retrieve my trailer. I was greeted by Leanardo who met me with a very professional and positive but down to earth personality. I told him that I Had just purchased a new hitch I needed to have the bolts tightened because I did not have a socket big enough to do it at home. Without any fuss he took it into the shop and had it tightened properly. After mounting the trailer onto the receiver I noticed that it was sitting a little low and asked what we could do to raise it up. He then offered to flip the hitch in order to gain about 2 inches. This would require re-doing the work that he had just done which without hesitation he went back into the shop and corrected it. Mind you it was about 95° out without a cloud in the sky and the sun beating down on both of us. He did all this while keeping a very positive attitude and being very professional. It's always refreshing when you run into people that take care in the customer and make sure that you leave satisfied.

We used this location twice recently. On both occasions, we reserved a truck using the app. This…read moremade for an easy experience to pick up, drop off, and pay for the truck. We were also able to extend the rental without a problem.

Besides the moving truck being in good condition and available to reserve it only a few days prior,…read morethe rest was not a good experience. There was no signage directing mobile check in customers to "skip" the line to get their keys, so I unknowingly waited 30mins to talk to someone. This was because the truck I was assigned via the app was parked behind others trucks, so there was no way to retrieve the truck on my own. Then when I got to a person, it took another 30 mins for the person to get my truck--keys were lost maybe? Not sure because there was not much communication. So I stood for 1 hour on my feet when I should have had a five min experience using mobile checkin. The location should not assign a truck that is parked in the back of the lot and not accessible; need to add signage or better directions for mobile users; they could have processed customers quicker with more staff so the line moved quicker; and they should provide trucks with a least a little bit of gas as the one I was provided had 3 miles left in it before needing gas. I appreciate that the manager comped some of my add-ons without me asking, but it didn't really feel like enough compensation for the stress and delay it caused my house move. Otherwise, the store was clean, mobile check was a good experience otherwise, equipment was in good shape (minus the lack of gas).

I should start by stating that calling the 800 number once you have a reservation takes more that…read more15 minutes to be answered and then you are passed to otherS employees that tries to help. I moved from out of state, used a Ubox and payed extra for insurance. Added help to load the box and my things were treated as garbage. The Ubox door was falling off and an employee fixed it so careless that drilled into our new baby crib. My other daughters $500 ride along electric car end up scratched every where. Upset I called the 800 number to canceled the help to unload the Ubox and I was told it was done over the phone. That I would receive the refund within days. When I called the next day and waited over 15 minutes just to double check if it was canceled I then was told I had to do it online. When I arrived to this store the older man behind the counter was rude and upset that I had canceled the help because by then they had loaded the box into a trailer to be towed. I told him I had called to cancel and he tells me " well they don't tell us this stuff" ( like its my fault the lack of communication they have). Dealing with the insurance for your damage belongings is a headache and takes ALOT of back and forth emails to be told you will only be receiving $100 because things are funcional. I asked for things to be fixed not for the cash but I was denied and told that what they will do is send the check by mail. Thanks to Uhaul my daughters will sleep and play with damaged but functional items.
