Avis in the B'ham, AL Airport charged us over twice what the price was supposed to be. We reserved a full size (Camry type of car) - They gave us a Volvo. With Costco rentals, you're supposed to be protected, but Avis overcharged us and their customer service cannot be reached. It's a huge waste of time to try and make contact with someone. Advise to AVOID this rental company - at least out of the B'ham, AL airport. Very dishonest!

It had a lot of damage that the Enterprise in Florida told me not to worry about. Upon arriving in Birmingham, the agent there Morgan, who was helping out from the Inverness location told me how to make sure to protect myself about vehicle damage. She was one of the most knowledgeable and kind agents I have had the pleasure of working with. The first time Melvin was very helpful in telling me about damage waiver and other types of insurance, and he helped me make an informed decision about what specific features I needed it.

I have rented 3 cars, 2 trucks, and 1 moving truck from this location. Their customer service is always great. Whenever I have a question they answer or find the answers out for me. They are always smiling and pleasant to be at work. Their vehicles have always been clean, and nice. I have rented from Avis, Hertz, Enterprise, and Thrifty. I have used airport locations and none airport locations. This Budget location always has the newest vehicles for you to rent. If you're looking to buy a specific car, and want more than a 30 minutes test drive. Give them a call and see if they have it available. They don't finance in house, but if you can get your own financing they can even sell you a vehicle when it's time. Meaning once a vehicle hits a certain number of miles, they sell it, auction it or etc. If you're looking for great service and great cars. This is the Budget to go to. All the staff gives great service. If you don't believe me call Budget and find out.

On a recent trip to Northern Michigan, my family flew into Pellston and was in need of a rental…read morecar. Due to our late arrival on a Friday and departure on a Sunday, there were few car rental companies that were even open / willing to work with this schedule. Luckily, Hertz was one of those that was available... I booked online and followed up with a phone call as our trip approached. Originally, no mini vans were available, so I booked a sedan, but was worried it would not be big enough to accommodate me, my husband, my brother, my two kids, and all of our luggage. Luckily, when I called, Dawn was able to find us a mini-van! Dawn could not have been friendlier or more attentive to our needs. We were also able to secure two car seats and were pleased all around with the rental from Hertz. We did pay a lot of $$ for it, but it was worth it. I'd definitely recommend going through this Hertz location if you find yourself in need of a rental anywhere near Pellston!

Escorted me outside as though he was taking me to my car. When I got outside he told me they did not have cars available and would not have any before they closed. I could see 5 other individuals inside so I asked if they also had reservations, he said yes and they were not getting cars either. The rep did not offer to find a car at another location or any other resolution. His excuse is that this location is "corporate" heavy and they run into this problem often. So if you need a car to be guaranteed do not rent from this location.

I had read about Honesty and Integrity in previous reviews, and that is what convinced me to have the Jeep taken there. I can attest that Mike is an honest mechanic with integrity.

David found one rate online that was fine--but we wondered if we could get better...so I called Chad at Avis. Chad was great--very personable! Not only did he beat the online rate, but he offered us a better car option. As long as a Prius was on the lot, he would let us use that car because it had better gas mileage for the long trek. It was great!!! He did warn us, upon arriving to pick it up, that it wasn't the most comfortable car. BUT we drove in it for a long time, and both of us were comfortable! Plenty of leg room--which is important for my tall fiance and all of our luggage. We started with a full trunk, and came home with a full car--but there was still space left if we needed it. We rented the car for 2 weeks at a great rate--mileage WAS terrific, kept our gas prices down--and we'd do it again! If we plan any long road trips again, we know who we'll be calling.
