la voiture n'était pas de la même catégorie que la réservation, j'ai payé un supplément pour avoir la catégorie prévu, mais voiture presque neuve donc pas trop décu.
The car was not correct! I booked and paid for a foord explorer 7 seater or similar but only got a Jeep 6 seater. Not the same and I paid extra for 7 seater! I went back to ask the budget cars rep and he said it was a 7 seater. But it was not and they would not check it over and said there was no more cars. We had to then pay for uber trips for the 7th passenger! This is no acceptable when I booked well in advance a 7 seater for 7 passengers.

So far since raising the complaint they have been co-operative and willing to raise the claim against the supplier budget cars. Including compensation for the costs incurred for it being incorrect vehcile. But this is only over email communication, I am waiting to see how this claim materialises.
We arrived at the Budget/Avis counter at Montreal Trudeau International Airport around 8 AM, but there was no one there, even though their business hours state they open at 6 AM. A middle-aged woman showed up after 8, looking very displeased as if we had disturbed her sleep. We handed her our rental voucher, and she processed the pickup and added an additional driver at my request, explaining that for spouses, there is no extra charge. Initially, we were happy as it saved us some money. However, when we reached the parking lot, we saw they had given us a Chevrolet Spark, the same model we originally got from Alamo in Vancouver, which has a trunk too small to fit two suitcases. Alamo eventually replaced it with a new Golf. We went back to the counter to request a different car, but the lady's attitude worsened, saying they had no cars of the type we booked and that if we wanted a bigger car, only a C-class KIA was available for an additional 10 CAD per day. We argued that since they didn’t have our booked car, the upgrade should be free. She insisted that the Spark was in the same group as our booked car and that we needed to pay for a larger one if desired.
We then contacted Mr. Zhang from your Guangzhou headquarters, who had provided excellent service before our trip and left us his WeChat for any issues. We reached him via WeChat voice, and after hearing our situation, he agreed that the other party was at fault and promised that the customer service would call us soon. Your company’s customer service called quickly, communicated with Budget, but it seemed like the problem wasn’t resolved. The customer service suggested we agree to the upgrade fee to complete our trip and discuss it later. Meanwhile, the woman had already given the KIA to someone else, implying we no longer had that option.
Ultimately, they gave us a Hyundai Elantra, charging us an additional 32 CAD, with the remaining amount to be charged upon vehicle return.
Being forced to upgrade for a fee left us very dissatisfied with Budget.
The service of the counter staff was horrible. The person does not accept my canadian credit card because my driving license was french. This forced me to pay with my french card and to buy a supplement for the insurance whereas I am covered by my canadian credit card...
Moreover, the car was smaller than requested through the website.
