![]() ![]() ![]() I was then told the car I requested had not been available for about a year. Once I got inside the employee asked for my ID and credit card. Pros: Absolutely nothing I’m very unhappy with this rentalĬons: When I arrived to pick up my vehicle there was one employee working the desk, with quite a long line to even talk to a worker. Now, I’m out $171 because of missing information and being told I could get my money back when apparently I can’t. However, I called and was told “well our policy is you need an additional credit card, so you will not be refunded, is there anything else I can do for you”. The agent told me I could call the customer service hotline and get a refund do to the situation. I was not told this beforehand, so I didn’t bring a credit card with me. When I arrived to the rental office, however, I was told that because I used my international license that I would have to do a second deposit of $250 but it would have to be via credit card. I called ahead of time to ensure I would be able to make a reservation and was told by customer service that I would. Makes me reconsider my choice in travel apps.Ĭons: I’m a US born citizen, living overseas (military), and needed to use my military USAREUR license as well as my international drivers license as my US was stolen (stolen wallet).

But it was my second choice, after my first choice - some no name rental agency called Mex, selected initially via Kayak, which routed me through - was a friggin disaster. And, the car’s display said it was overdue for service by over 40 days. Within a few minutes of leaving Payless, there was an overwhelming stench of cigarette smoke that permeated the car and even my home garage once I got the car home. It’s been so long since I rented a car that wasn’t fresh and clean that it didn’t immediately occur to me that Payless was trying to cover a nasty odor. Even more disturbing, it had a strong perfume-ish scent. When I got to the car, it was a compact even thought I had ordered intermediate. There was a line of customers, so I gave in. I requested clarification from the Payless rep, but he just kept repeating the amount he said was owed in a manner clearly intended to beat me into submission. When I picked up the car, I was charged about $105. My stated rate for two days was about $92. Pros: Drop off was easy, but no one inquired about my level of satisfaction so I did not have the opportunity to tell them that the car reeked of cigarettes and was overdue for maintenance (according to the maintenance required info on the display).Ĭons: Everything was terrible. ![]()
