GEORGE BUSH INTERCONTINENTAL AIRPORT CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

It took almost over an hour to get the car because such vehicles are rented less frequently and are kept in the main lot. Also, QEEQ's data is not prioritized by HERTZ, so the reserved vehicle was not transferred to the rental counter area.

Very economical, and the rental company is quite reliable.

Alamo initially intended to charge me over $100 for insurance. I was about to call the QEEQ website for consultation and asked for a written proof. In the end, they waived the fee. The car was in great condition and had only been driven for just over 800 miles.

When picking up the car, the clerk informed me that the reserved Jetta was not available and recommended an upgrade with additional insurance, asking for an extra payment of over $380. I refused immediately. What's more interesting, when I went to pick up the car, it turned out to be a Suzuki hatchback. Furious, I went back to negotiate, and they finally gave me a Corolla.

Thrifty and Dollar at Houston IAH airport operate together. I was attended by a middle-aged woman, seemingly of Eastern European descent, at the Dollar counter. She insisted I buy full insurance, but I repeatedly said I wanted the basic insurance plan as per my reservation. She became unhappy and told her manager that I didn't have my passport, which led to the manager refusing to rent me a car. My passport was at my home in Houston, and I only had my driver's license with me at the airport. I forgot to bring my passport. Although my family sent a photo of my passport to my phone, they still wouldn't let me rent the car. They insisted I take a cab they contacted to go home and retrieve my passport, which would cost me $160. Left with no choice, I rented a car from another company, which did not require my passport, to go home and get it. By the time I returned to the airport with my passport, it was already 10 PM. I had to return the car by 5 PM on the 27th at the Houston Medical Center location because that's when they close. If I returned it after 5 PM, I would have to return it the next day and be charged an extra day's fee. So, although I rented the car for two weeks, I effectively used it for less than two weeks, losing 5 hours in total. This company hides behind various rules and regulations to inconvenience customers, but I want to report this to the rental platform. I hope the platform has the influence to complain about this company. My experience with their Houston locations was extremely poor.

When picking up the car, the store staff kept adding various extra charges (mostly insurance). After I told her I didn't need them, she would remove the cheapest one, and this process repeated several times, wasting a lot of time. Eventually, she insisted I keep a third-party liability insurance, claiming it was necessary as it was not included in the original rental contract. Additionally, there was a small incident when picking up the car. One staff member told me I could choose between two cars, and I picked a newer-looking red one. At the exit, another staff member said the red car was already reserved and asked me to switch to the other car. While transferring my luggage, I forgot my backpack in the red car, which had my wallet (various credit cards), laptop, and other items. I drove to my friend's place over 60 kilometers away from the airport. It wasn't until after dinner (around 10 PM) that I realized my backpack was missing. Unable to reach anyone by phone, I had to drive back to the airport. Fortunately, the duty manager had kept my backpack and checked its contents. Despite driving over 100 kilometers round trip and returning to my hotel late at night, I was relieved to recover my backpack.

The trunk lid doesn't lock well, there is a bit of an issue.

The strange hybrid car broke down many times and ran out of charge. Roadside assistance never arrived on site and didn't respond in time. Extra charges applied when returning the car! Greg, the return agent, openly asked for a tip.

I made a reservation in advance and was slightly delayed by traffic, returning the car within an hour past the scheduled time. The agreement was that there would be no additional charges, but the drop-off location still charged an extra $160 for being about 50 minutes late. The original reservation details were not properly communicated to the drop-off point. Ultimately, after waiting about 30 minutes in line and communicating with them, the charge was refunded. If you need to catch a flight, this can be very stressful. I hope the phone customer service and the office staff can coordinate better.

Everything was fine! They may suggest you to take additional insurance, but you can decline based on your situation.

Good service, quick procedures, no hard selling

Very good

Alamo is quite good. The procedures are convenient, the car models are diverse, if the same-level cars are out of stock, they upgrade immediately. Returning the car is quick, just scan the code. Highly recommended.

At Houston Airport, we took a shuttle to the car rental center to pick up the car. The hall was spacious, and the staff were very friendly. Highly recommended!

Good service, all the requirements were clearly explained.

Reasonable price, excellent service, excellent car condition!

Reasonable price and good car condition.

I really dislike this company! They did not provide the car at the price I booked online and added several unnecessary insurance charges. Additionally, my reservation included a different drop-off location, and they charged me an extra $150 for a one-way fee. It's totally unreasonable! Even worse, the attendant told me that if I didn't add the insurance, I shouldn't rent the car, and they charged my credit card before letting me sign the contract! I advise all Chinese tourists to avoid renting from this company; they take advantage of Chinese customers!

The pickup and drop-off were both very quick. I left a jacket on the back seat when I returned the car, but they found it the same day and arranged to send it back to me.
