BUDGET CAR RENTAL REVIEWS IN UNITED STATES

Good, the car is very new and easy to drive.

Collection process is too slow, staff have to input far too much information into their computer systems. It’s more about who we were rather than the car. As we have already done so much of it online it felt like too much duplication

Kept us very well informed, easy to book process and customer services were very helpful when we had to change a booking

The staff was very slow and inefficient during the pickup in DC, but returning the car was very convenient.

The car was ok but the tariff didn’t match with the one on the app it was more expensive at the moment of pick up

The app was great

I didn't receive the car type I purchased and I paid a premium for a low spec car!

Car size was great, vehicle had a dirty front windscreen inside, couple of bits of rubbish, smell of cannabis & had a inspection due light on

Would always recommend

Overall alright, but they kept trying to upsell.

Car was excellent. On arrival at the counter the staff were very helpful and the whole process took under 10 minutes.

Everything was great and speedy.

they charged me for several extra packages that I didn't request or sign for, and when I escalated after car return, they started returning piece by piece those extra fees

I would like for the Bus Sharon Mayberry bus driver she went above to accommodate us my brother is totally a disabled senior. She parked one van and came right back with a van with a lift for my brother! I shared this experience with family and friends, will use again!AND THE NICE GIRL AT COUNTER I FORGOT HER NAME...tHEY ROCK she was very fast and efficient goy long line down!

All easy and went well

The counter staff was amazing, the wait was really long to pick up though. They appeared to have as many staff on as possible.

As a whole the experience wasn't bad, especially as the car was concerned, but the customer service for me was a total disaster. First, I was charged a second time for a 100% prepaid booking. I had to show them this on return, so they started doing something to correct it - and I'm still not sure whether they did it so that I didn't pay anything additionally. Second, nobody warned me that the moment I get out of the rental location, I will get into a city tunnel that is actually a toll zone. And the toll charges by Budget are anything but budget - it's a complete rip-off. I was charges over $22 for one single toll charge (and my friends living there told me they are paying somewhere between $1 and $2 for the same thing. Other than that - no problems, great car, well, nobody cares about marks and scratches in the USA, they don't even bother marking them on the protocol or checking for them on return, but I am already getting used to this.

Very good car, very good rental location and very good staff!

Easyrentcars.com is my favourite rental website

The customer service at budget is terrible

They tried to sell me insurance during car pickup. I paid a total of $124, and I'm still not sure what $47 of that was for.

Good service

This was exaxtly the same as if we had reserved wirh Budget to start with, only with a much better price.

Fantastic price for a one-way rental. I will use Easyrentcars from now on.

When picking up the car, I was almost charged several hundred dollars for services. They wanted me to click AGREE on the screen and sign. Thankfully, I had read online about these insurance scams before, and after scrutinizing for a while and questioning, the front desk tore up the initial contract and issued a new one. However, our originally booked four-door compact car was replaced with a two-door car. It seems like a downgrade, and it wasn't any of the car models mentioned on the rental site. The rental company didn't admit the downgrade when contacted. So, what's the point of having separate options for two-door and four-door cars on your booking page? Also, I clearly saw other car options listed under the counter initially, but after I refused to buy the new insurance, they changed my car to a smaller two-door model. There were plenty of cars waiting to be rented in the lot. After driving the car for three days, it showed a need for an oil change, even though I hadn't driven that much. Clearly, the store doesn't care about maintenance schedules. We wasted around three hours getting the oil changed. The rental website's customer service said we could get a refund for the oil change fee by showing the receipt when returning the car, but the rental company said our money went to the third-party booking agency. It seems the rental website isn't as professional as claimed, just a bit cheaper. The shuttle service to and from the airport was convenient with frequent buses.

When picking up the car, they almost charged us several hundred dollars for additional services. They asked us to press AGREE on the screen and sign. Luckily, I had read online about people being scammed with insurance, so I questioned it, and the front desk tore up the original form and made a new one. However, the compact four-door car we originally booked was replaced with a two-door car, which was a downgrade. The car we got wasn't among those listed on the booking page. Reporting this to the rental company through our booking platform proved futile since they refused to admit the downgrade. What's the point of distinguishing between two-door and four-door options if they can give you whatever they want? Initially, I saw some different car models at the counter, but when I declined the new insurance and got a revised form, I felt they gave us the smaller two-door car. There were plenty of rental cars available when we picked up ours. After just three days, the car indicated it needed an oil change, even though we hadn't driven much, suggesting poor maintenance by the rental office. We spent about three hours getting the oil changed, which wasted a lot of time! The booking platform's customer service said we'd get reimbursed for the oil change, but upon return, the rental company said our money had been paid to a third party. It seems the booking platform isn't as professional as advertised, just slightly cheaper. The shuttle service to and from the airport was convenient, with shuttles arriving frequently.
