Newark-Philadelphia-DC-Newark

Went early, not too many people, and the queue time was short. The service attitude of the rental company staff was average, not too friendly but not rude. They strongly recommended many unnecessary extra items. In the end, I only accepted paying around 50 USD for not having to refill the gas tank upon return. In hindsight, it was unnecessary since there were plenty of gas stations around the return area. Additionally, about three weeks after returning home, my credit card was automatically charged 26 USD. After inquiry, I found out it was due to an electronic toll. The toll was 1 USD, and the rental company's service fee was 25 USD, which seems excessive.

Very satisfied, see detailed review

I've always rented cars through this platform, but this time the experience was terrible. After returning the car, the American rental company charged me $280, $275 of which was a management fee and the rest was for tolls. I don't question the toll fees, but the $275 management fee is absurd. I rented a car at the same airport two years ago and didn't have this charge. This fee is almost equal to the rental cost itself, meaning I paid almost twice the amount for the rental. The rental company said the high cost was due to labor costs, but I doubt such a significant difference between companies at the same airport. The customer service representative said they tried to negotiate with the rental company but got nowhere. If they continue to treat Chinese customers this way, this platform should stop collaborating with them to prevent more people from being deceived. Avoid Advantage Rentals at all costs.

Extremely dissatisfied. The rental company staff were rude throughout the entire process. They set up various obstacles to prevent us from picking up the car. Tried every possible way to charge us extra fees and attempted to forcefully sell us a full tank of gas at a high price. They refused to give us the car unless we bought it. We've rented cars multiple times in the UK, USA, and Thailand and have never encountered such unreasonable behavior. Even in Japan, where the process is the most complicated and strict, we were treated politely. Very disappointed, this is a company that does not respect its customers.

Like: Very affordable price and car was brand new upgraded as well because our choice wasn’t available at the time
Dislike: Waiting on my deposit back of $200 been home couple of days and still haven’t received it.
