Pros:

Clerk was helpful until I noticed a mistake in the booking and then she said she had no way to correct it.

Cons:

I had booked a one way car rental for La Guardia with a Drop off at Logan airport. When I called to ask if I could pick up the car a day earlier the customer service rep, said "yes" and also that I would save $25 . When I got there the clerk told me that the reservation said I was returning it to LaGuardia. I said that wasn't what I had told the clerk and she refused to honor the lower rate and if that wasn't enough she would't even give me the original price but said now I'd have to pay $80 more than my original reservation. I walked out and got another car from Thrifty. They made the mistake and they should have honored the price quoted. At least the original price, so I. don't think I will book with Enterprise again.

I have gotten good fares w Budget with the option for free cancellation. Sadly, there are never enough Budget reps to process customers. I usually have to wait at least 30 minutes in line to get my car. SADLY, my experience is EVERY budget car smells like smoke.

JFK Pickup had a long wait time (about 90 minutes). Understanding that the rental was during the Thanksgiving holiday and in a very congested area, I was not upset with the wait time, however if there were more employees at the desk the wait time could have been much shorter. Overall the experience was great and the car was very clean and no issues. Returning at Charlotte airport was very easy.

Cons:

The ladies at the desk were disasters. They were busy playing with each other instead of assisting customers. I had to reminder them many time that I had to go. The lady that help helped to me said I had to upgrade because my car size was not available even though reserved ahead of time. Which I declined but she charged me aways for the upgrade. I spent over 30 mins to get my rental.

Nov 2020

Pros:

I had to call both Lynchburg and Queens National locations prior to pickup, and though my issue was not able to be resolved ahead of time, Cody in Lynchburg and Elena in Queens were extremely courteous and helpful. At the time of pickup, the counter staff was helpful and my pickup was smooth. The gate associate was personable and helpful as well.

Sep 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

The staff at the National pickup in Queens gave us the wrong information about adding another person. They insisted that my travel partner was not covered on the insurance and were very dismissive and unhelpful about how we could resolve the issue. Upon going to another National car service location at Newark airport (far out of our way to our travel destination) we finally received some helpful advice from the clerk there. I was very upset that the National Car service location in queens was not more informed on the issue and helpful. It seemed like they just wanted to clock out and didn't care about nay type of customer service. I WILL NOT be renting from National again

Cons:

The customer service and transparency on terms.

Drop off was understaffed. I was charged a late fee because it took 15 minutes for someone to get to me to review the car, and they submitted their report 10 minutes after my drop off time. This company also requires you to have full coverage, not just collision. I do not own a car and so had to pay an extra $30 a day to them for this coverage.

For whatever reason you always have to wait longer for their shuttle vs other car agencies, the lines for checkout and check-in also are longer, they nickle and dime you on insurance requirements like no other rental car agencies. The car I rented was older and had previously been wrecked and fixed with a bad paint job. Other than that it was ok.

I watched their employee walk around the car and photograph. He then came in and told me the car had no damage and the gas tank was full. I was on the highway 15 minutes and looked down to realize the tank wasn’t even half full. I was in heavy traffic with a 2 1/2 hour drive ahead of me. I had to photograph the dashboard, call the company WHILE DRIVING to let me know. They asked for contract number, which I hadn’t been given AND WAS DRIVING. it took 10 min for the employee answering the phone to let me know I didn’t have to return it full. And the photos I received from 1st employee clearly show the tank wasn’t full, but was marked full on the form. MADDENING

There are so many hidden fees, so many additional charges. Required a copy of my car insurance (not just proof of insurance but the full insurance policy). I would never rent fro this company again. The car smelled and had a cigarette burn in the seat.

LGA did not provide signage to SIXT shuttle. Shuttle driver did not help us with our bags at SIXT Rental Office. No signage at Rental Office to explain which end of the rope is the front of the line. I was standing at the other end of the rope and two clerks ignored me. The third clerk asked me if I was picking up a car. When I said yes, she told me that I was at the wrong end of rope. My clerk was a very nice lady, but when she left the desk to go get the car, she left my ID and credit card on the desk, unsecured. I received a car that had a cigarette stench in it. I won't be back. Next time, I'll go back to Enterprise/National. I'll spend a little more to get good service and a clean car.
