When at the counter the lady said there would be a brush/ice scraper in the vehicle and there wasn't. When I got in to crank the vehicle, I noticed only 3/4 tank of gas. It was really no big deal. When I return the vehicle a week later I let the attendant know about the brush/scraper and fuel. He immediately wanted to fix this with giving me 60 dollars off the car rental. I thought this was very generous.

Realized snow was coming to Yellowstone so asked to upgrade to an SUV at the pickup counter. They gave us a Jeep Grand Cherokee which was fantastic in snow and throughout our two week tour of the National Parks.

I arrived at 10:50 to pick up my 11:00 van for the wedding. It was not ready so they were trying to give me a Dodge Journey. As I was waiting, a van came in. They rushed to clean it. The gas gauge was just below the Full line. I filled out my paperwork and waited. As I was waiting, I reviewed the fees in Spanish. There was an $85.00 charge that I asked about. They told me it was a fill up, that they said I requested, which I did not. I rented the van for $15.00 a day through your site. My final price was $815.00, including insurance, prepaid gas, an upgrade surcharge that I was unaware of, as well things I could not figure out and they were reluctant to explain, probably because of the language barrier. They charge 19.9 pesos on the dollar making my van almost $1200.00 in Canadian for 8 days!!! Ridiculous.I was late leaving and late getting my guests at the airport.. When I returned, they could not find my paperwork. Waited another 1/2 hour. Not happy with my experience. Did not know Payless was Budget.

We reserved on line in a morning to get our car un the afternoon. At the payless counter in puerto vallarta, mexico. No reservation at our name and no mini van. They look in the central system and said that out reservation wasn’t transmit and with carrental.com they can’t be sure about the car inventory.... and they said that we souldn’t have bought the insurance... finally we had to pay much more because, they made a new reservation and borrowed a mini van from budget car rental. Go directly with car rental instead of car rental.com

I was extremely happy with the professional service at Enterprise and the efficiency in picking up the rental car. The representative was excellent at explaining things and very courteous. And, the car was in great shape. I will be coming back every year to Enterprise and am highly recommending to family and friends.
