Proof of these liars demanding I pay them for them stranding me.
Paul W.

When I rented a car for a family vacation, SIXT gave me a defective car which had a bad transmission and left me stranded on the road in Beacon Hill for 5 hours at night. When I called their customer service line, they transferred me to their roadside service line. And when I got connected to their roadside service line, they told me to contact customer service. Then after 2 more back and forth telephone transfers over the course of an hour, they told me to wait and that a tow was on its way free of charge with a replacement vehicle, and that they would update me on the progress. After an hour, I called back in and they made me do the same transfer back and forth for another hour (at this point, about 10pm) before I got sent to someone who said there was never a request made for a tow and that I would have to stay with car until another team came back in the morning. I told them it was a bad neighborhood and they said to call the cops, schedule my own tow at my own expense, or pay for the full price of the car if something happened to it. I asked to speak to the supervisor and they told me there were no supervisors and then hung up on me. I called back in, they transferred me around back and forth again and after ANOTHER HOUR, they promised again that they would schedule a tow free of charge with a vehicle replacement. BY 1 AM IN THE MORNING, a tow truck finally appears with the promised car. Now look here, half a year later and they're demanding I pay the tow fees. They gave me a bad car that left me stranded me in a bad neighborhood past midnight, jerking me around back and forth and demand I pay the full price of the booking all over again for the pleasure of the experience. SIXT is cheap for a reason. They have a fleet of bad cars, have absolutely no training for their phone staff, and worse, are happy to strand you in any city you're visiting then charge you for the hassle. I have a photo here of them trying to cheat their own towing company and send them after me to collect. If that's how SIXT treats their own team that makes them money, what do you think they'd be willing to do to you? Learn from my mistake and the mistakes that sound exactly the same from all the other 1 star reviews on this page. I'm going to fight these vampires because they're scum. You can avoid the fight altogether. Recognize this company as trash and just spend $50 more elsewhere that doesn't actively hate you.

I've been a Sixt Gold member for almost 7 years and it looks like it's going downhill from what it used to be. What initially attracted me was competitive pricing, nice cars (you could often get a free upgrade), quick and knowledgeable staff. What I saw this time wasn't quite up to that standard. We showed up at our pick up time and were told our car (BMW X3) wasn't there yet. We were offered a GMC Acadia or a BMW sedan instead which is not something you'd want to drive if you paid for a premium SUV. We had to wait for an hour until the car finally arrived. The check-in process was very slow even though I booked the car and provided my information online months ago. The staff extended our rent time by an hour but didn't offer anything else to compensate for the wait time and inconvenience which was frustrating. The drop-off was also pretty slow as there was only one employee working the counter and it took forever for people in front of us to get all the car paperwork done. I really liked Sixt but in the world of Turo and Silvercar it makes me less likely to rent from them again in the future.

"I'm Going Slightly Mad" - Queen…read more This location was our return for the rental from SEATAC to downtown Seattle, for a 6-hour rental. We forked out the $69.00 rental for the day as we wanted to explore the city before checking into our hotel, and go shopping. It was also nice as my husband and son used the car as a crash pad to catch some ZzzzS while I was parked at Pike Market Place and went shopping alone. The return wasn't as smooth as the pick-up from the airport as the street signs were CONFUSING as heck. No left turn except for buses onto 3rd, what??? We circled around and around using Waze app due to multiple one-way streets. The entrance to Alamo for the garage wasn't really marked, either. It was the Twilight Zone. After about a stupid and ridiculous 20- minute drive being stuck on one-way streets and circling around and around, I said, "screw this! I am turning LEFT!" Once into the building, there were no signs, so we drove up a few flights to an Alamo booth and idled the car, wondering what to do. There were no signs, did I already say that? There was a lone woman in a booth talking to what appeared to be a customer. I had to get out of the car to ask her what to do, and she said we could just park the car. She was nice, though. You need sleuthing skills to return a car here. Convenient, but only if you know what you are doing.

I'm writing about the car we upgraded to @ the Seattle Budget lot; a Toyota 4x4 from a small…read morecompact, which Agent John at desk suggested for our business/ personal trip. However, after leaving the lot we began to notice it was full of personal receipts, snacks, masks and a permeating, sharp sour odor. Although it had the seal of approval of the previous cleaner on the dash, ( which I gave to the second cleaner when returned), she took the original, hand-signed authorization( that he had completed his job) to her office, never to return. We were unable to settle this situation at the lot, but have pictures, including the personal papers. We left the snacks and masks as is, but I have pics if you would like to see them. Honestly, we had to wipe everything down, but couldn't eradicate the smell! I'm glad that we all had our vaccinations because, this is a Pandemic!!!!!

And the gas economy is simply unbelievable! Alyson is an amazing host, she's fun and pleasure to deal with. She takes a real good care of her cars. She urgently changed the car that I initially booked a day before the trip, because that car turned out to have some mechanical issues. I was really glad that it was all resolved before the trip and not on the road. Besides, this shows that Alyson has her cars mechanically checked before every trip, so I felt safe driving Bianka. Check in and check out process were contactless and easy. I'm definitely going to rent one of Alyson's cars next time i'm in Seattle! Thank you Ava!

I had a few bad instances of Budget in Los Angeles. I had a reservation booked at another Budget…read morelocation, but decided to go with this one, since there were a few reviews mentioning how Paul was the go-to guy! I couldn't agree more. I rented the car for pick up by the Space Needle, and drop off at the airport. Paul quickly brought up my reservation. He even offered an upgrade to an available SUV he had, but I decided to keep the sedan since I didn't have a need for a bigger car, but appreciate the kind gesture! After signing the normal documents and paying, Paul led me to the parking garage in the back. We had a quick chat and he mentioned he had been working a lot and that Budget is his family run business. It was good to hear more about him...hopefully you can take a well-deserved break soon Paul! I got a 2021 Subaru which was definitely fun to drive! There were some scuffs and some damage along the side, but Paul re-assured me that it was already marked in the system. The car did use up more gas then I had hoped, but was definitely driving a new-ish car! Paul gave me paper slip to get out of the parking garage and it was easy sailing from there! Drop off at the airport was easy as well . Thank you Paul for the great service. Will definitely rent from Paul's location whenever I'm back in Seattle. Highly recommend!

Then phone number took me to the budget customer service line .. I was on the phone with them when I see someone in the office .. So I go to the office and start knocking on the glass because he didn't get the call and/or hear the door bell. The man comes downs stairs and ask me what can he do for me .. I tell him I have a reservation to pick up a truck . He goes on to tell me that he with a customer he'll help me when he's done .. I asked ok and sat back .. As he's walking out the door he tells me I should have called the number on the door .. He get back from helping the other lady and as soon as we got up the stairs I said I dnt appreciate you telling me to do something I've already done and yet still on the phone with budget cs agent. I showed him I was still on the phone with the number that's on the door.. while he's yelling me and telling me That I didn't call .. I told him I watched the lady pull up and then notice her not come back out .. I then go on to ask him why is he treating so ugly. All I said was I was here to rent a truck and the ugliness came out .. Then he goes on to tell me he doesn't need my money it's probably just a local rental .. I've never ever rented from budget and never will the customer only wanted to offer me 20% off for the mishap but I found that discount online myself. So this man doesn't need any rentals that are local because he's too good for that . Treating people they way he did he needs to be shut down and never make another penny in his life

A last-minute trip needed a last-minute car rental. Enterprise is my go to and I usually only rent…read moreabout once a year so it's not necessarily a familiar process. But the staff team that works the SeaTac venue was truly seamless. It was Gabe who first assisted me to confirm my paperwork and I think that took less than 10 minutes because I've been able to make the reservation by phone. I want to be really clear that I talked to a human to make the reservation and that made all the difference for me. The online version of it was inefficient and didn't allow me to ask questions and get clarification that I needed so I hope Enterprise continues to allow customers to talk to human Customer Service representatives because not all questions can be answered online. Then I was sent to the next area which involved some trepidation because it was a vast area of garage space but immediately Natalie who was part of Enterprise approached me and took my tentativeness and turned it into confidence. She walked me past several areas and made sure that I was put into a vehicle that suited my concerns. And instead of feeling limited by my selection upstairs I felt I was actually given some options in which car I could land in. That made a tremendous difference. Her welcome was genuine and she was very helpful. So between Gabe and Natalie I had a great car pick up experience. And then I'd like to mention Christian who helped me get out of my car when I returned it 24 hours later. He helped me figure out why I would not get a day return back Despite returning at 12 hours earlier, and he was friendly and very positive about his work. I think he was celebrating a work anniversary actually but I don't remember which one it was. Regardless kudos to Enterprise for having such great staff work with us to make a car pick up and car returns simple and seamless. My only issue now is that I left some keys in the car and I would love to figure out how to get a hold of them. I did email Enterprise but have not heard back. I wonder if there is a more direct route to figuring out Lost and found items?

I've used several different companies before but Enterprise generally has a pretty good rate. My last experience with Enterprise was one of the worst rental experiences I've had. At first, it was nice that they offered the choice of a car to me, and provided some full-size sedan options at no cost for an upgrade. I took a Nissan Altima. As soon as I pulled out of the registration, warnings started going off on my dashboard about low tire pressure. I checked the tire pressure and noticed it was enough to make it to my destination so I didn't pay it any mind. The destination I went to had no service stations nearby, so I e-mailed into Enterprise to ask about the issue. They said I could return the car or pull into a Firestone. It took a few days for me to get to the Firestone but once I did, the technicians took a look and found a deeply embedded nail into the tire that was slowly leaking air. I had attributed the tire pressure fluctuation to the cold weather. They filled the tire back up enough to where I would make it back to the airport. I reported the issue immediately via e-mail and to the manager on site. I'm leaving a 3-star instead of a 1-star because previous experiences have been fine, but this last one was straight up dangerous. Inspect your cars well before taking them out.
