CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON THRIFTY AT TORONTO PEARSON AIRPORT, YYZ

Car was fine for our use

The original car I reserved wasn't available at the location, so the staff replaced it with a Nissan SUV, which met my needs.

Dostaliśmy auto z wyższej półki. Lepsze, większe i wygodniejsze, za te same pieniądze.

Returning the car to a different location is not allowed, very frustrating. Refund the deposit

The car condition and pickup were both good.

We did wait a long time to get our car as there were two customers ahead of us and their process was far lengthier than ours. There was only one customer service person working and this greatly slowed the process, but her handling of each group was excellent. Despite the 5-6 groups waiting for service she remained calm and gave her full attention to each of us. The car was great.

Had to wait over 2hours from when I arrived at the counter to when I finally got my car. They didn’t have any cars available so I had to wait for one to arrive. They did end up giving me a larger size vehicle but that’s probably because they had no other options.

Easy to use

The car was late and the desk was hard to find, sign hidden behind a column. The car was low on fuel compared with the documentation

Satisfactory

Very satisfied

Car upgraded. Nice and efficient staff. Wouldn't allow 2 hrs grace on return so I had to spend extra time at airport.

Added 2 additional drivers added at pick up with no issues.

We booked a Toyota Camry or similar, but ended up with a small Nissan (Kicks) when we picked up the car. We had a lot of luggage and had to force everything into the trunk, which was very difficult and frustrating. When returning the car, we also had a very unpleasant experience. The rental company staff saw that the fuel tank wasn't full (I refilled it but used some while driving from the hotel to the airport) and charged us an unreasonable fee for the missing fuel. They recorded the charge in their system without my explicit consent. My wife tried to discuss it with them but was told to be quiet because she wasn't the primary renter. The whole process made us feel like we were being scammed. We disagreed with their handling of the situation and were in a standoff for a while. Then the staff member called security and demanded that we remove our luggage and clear the car. We were extremely dissatisfied with the staff member's attitude and handling of the situation.

I already have insurance.

The car pickup is not at Terminal 3; you have to take the skytrain to Terminal 1. There was a minor scratch on the lower right front corner, so I took a photo. When returning the car, the staff exaggerated and said it would cost seven or eight hundred. They told me the amount would be deducted from my credit card. I informed them that my rental insurance covers all costs and asked them to discuss it with my rental company.

The car model did not match the booking, I reserved a Camry but got a Corolla.

everything was good

The car was not ready when I went to pick it up and I had to wait one hour . The car I booked was not available and they offered to move me into a larger SUV - which I declined as I felt the car was too big . Instead I rented a Nissan Versa which was a good fit for my needs .

Convenient

I was truly disappointed that at time of drop off Thrifty refused to provide a local ride to my work (less than 3 km), even though it is indicated they provide pickup and drop off rides to their customers at their website. The staff simply indicated that they are busy and cannot provide rides at time of drop off! I had to hire a taxi for $15.. Also, instead of a pre authorization for a deposit, Thrifty had already charged me $350 for a deposit which I have not yet received back post 4 day.

Receiving my deposit within 1-2 months is totally not acceptable!
