    I had booked a car with them one week in advance. I booked a certain size car that we were going to need for our travels. When we arrived they only had a small compact available. We needed to get on the road right away so we had no choice but to take it and go. The thing is that they contacted us the day before to confirm that we still intended to rent a car and they didn't tell us at that time the car we reserved was not available. I will never rent from them again. Horrible service!!! Do not rent from these people!!!

    I was hit in rear by individual, their insurance paid for PREMIUM rental car. When I arrived at the Enterprise lot on Smokey Park Hwy Asheville, NC, they had no cars. They wanted me to take a Nissan Altima which was fine, however, opened the door and the stagnant cigarette smell would knock you out. Next car was a rattle trap Jeep, no way. So they called the other location on Patton Ave., they had a Nissan Rogue. They brought over, was out of gas, had to go for gas. This was a ridiculous wait as the insurance company had already sent info to them.

    Well, I return car with 1/2 tank of gas, that is amount I left with. Them my AX bill comes in and they have charged me $371 in extra above the $380 the insurance has paid. Could not believe this bill, charged for gas, charged additional for the Murano (premium which I was to get). I fought this however, they are known for this. NEVER WILL I GO TO THESE CROOKS AGAIN. I was warned of this by my sister, an insurance agent, as they no long do business with Enterprise.

    I tried to rent a car for a day and I booked it 2 days before itself. As I am new to this place, I called them and ensured that whether they will provide me a car with Texas driving licence, they also said they can provide me one. But on the time of taking they told they cannot, as in my card it mentioned as limited term and also it other state card. I tried to explain them that all the original driving licence in Texas will be mentioned as limited term and the card which I gave to them is not a limited driving licence. They are not ready to listen my word at all.

    At last my friend showed his NJ driving licence, but they are not ready to give at the same price as I booked. They charged me extra amount and they made me to take mandatory insurance. Actually the car which I booked is only 45$ but at last I took with $103. The car which I took is also not in good condition, it's damn worst, even AC was not working properly. I rented a car from Somerset St., Edison, NJ. I am totally disappointed with their service, I will never take car from Enterprise anymore and I will never allow or refer my friends also.

    We booked car at 10645 101 st, Edmonton, AB location on Oct 8 because this location is 7 min from my house and we don't have car. I called for pick up, lady name ** answered and told me she can't schedule me for pick up because my address is on St. Albert trail which is not in downtown so I told her it's not first time for us picking up from here. We did 2-3 time in past and a guy came for pick up so why can't she schedule then she said she is not allowed? Just because my address is on St. Albert trail? What a rude? So I asked her how can we come there? She said, "take a cab?" Excuse me?? Just because we don't have car that's why we are booking through Enterprise and she told us to take a cab? They always set up for pick up. And she said straight no and was so rude to me and my husband. She needs to understand situation of customer.

    I also have her option if she can modify address and change address so we can get from somewhere else and she said no to that as well. She is very very rude, arrogant lady. Just because of her I spend $20 for cab to pick up car and $20 I will give tomorrow when I will drop off. What an stupid service she gave us. I would not going at this location ever and not booking car from here. They have free pick up and drop off still I end up paying $40 to cab. Very disgusting service, unprofessional behaviour. She disappointed me so badly, never going there ever again. Stupid lady.

    Also when I asked her at 5.24pm can I talk to someone else there or manager and she said there is no one else and when my husband went for pick up at 5.45pm he asked for especially her and she wasn't there. Some other lady helped. What a liar she is. I hope this complaint goes to that location and manager take some step against it.

    Why reserve a car to have no cars available when you arrive at the Enterprise location? What is the reservation for? I was headed to see my brother who is in a long-term faculty with a brain injury. When I arrived, the car I reserved was not available. All they had was a mini-van and a souped up Dodge. Where was my reserved car, the one that fits my driving comfort level?

    The manager thought my inconvenience was all a big joke. I had to let him have it at a certain point because I was very disappointed that the trip to check on my brother was not to be and it seemed like the manager did not care. By the way, four other stores were called with no results. Not even in a close by state were there any cars available. Why make a reservation?

    About two years ago I was getting my car fixed, the place had Enterprise pick me up from right down the street. Nice, huh? The guy was nice. Car was clean. It all went swimmingly. I tell them I'll pay insurance for about three days. It took much longer than planned to fix the car (had to order parts and such), therefore I needed the rental for longer. This was all good. Still within the timeframe my insurance company covered. I called after those three or so days and told the Enterprise employee my situation and that I wanted to opt out of their insurance (which is totally optional if you have your own, but my then recent bout of bad luck told me to get that extra coverage just in case - I didnt need my insurance rates to go up). And I couldnt really afford that extra insurance they offer anyway.

    So she replies that she understands. "No one really gets it anyway," she says. I start checking my credit. Trying to better myself. Put my big girl pants on. And what do it see looming over me... a big delinquency from the ENTERPRISE insurance bill I never paid in full (because I asked to be taken off it). Probably not worth the fight. Not that I didn't call them regarding it. But what can I do? Guess I'll just pay the approximately 250 bucks and watch my score improve. IF they report my payment to the credit bureaus. By the way, what do you do if you pay but it is never reflected in your credit report after a long time - a year?

    I have rented from them several times in the past in Sevierville TN and Don't have a major credit card. I flew to Nevada and tried to rent a car. They refused to rent to me because I don't have a major credit card. Rented a Penske truck. Drove all the way to Findlay Ohio. Tried to rent a car. They refused again because of major credit card. Will never rent again or recommend this company to anyone. Will do my best to detour anyone from renting from Enterprise ever. This company sucks.

    I rented a car at Cranbury NJ for week-end special on Sept 30 2017. I had previously rented for week-ends rental promotions and there was no limitation on mileage. This time when I rented the car the mileage rental was not mentioned but I was charged when I returned the car. I had also mentioned the manager that I would be traveling out of state while renting the car but he did not mention about mileage limitation. They did not mention about the extra mile charges when renting the car. This is cheating and does not conform to the customer service quality they promise.

    I hit a deer in a rural area where I live and my insurance company has rental car coverage. So being that my Jeep had to have repairs and my wife needed a car to drive I got a rental car from Enterprise. At first as they were extremely nice and helpful. The body shop was asking me to sign something without showing me what they were repairing so I declined decided to use my day off to go down there and find out what was being repaired. Agreed on terms and the body shop took longer than expected but instead of getting in touch with me to let me know my insurance rental limit expired Enterprise charged me $340 bucks and kept my deposit.

    On top of that the first form of a contact I received from their company was a text. Message stating I needed to return their vehicle with 3 1/2 hours or they were calling the police and reporting it stolen. I immediately called the number they texted from and let them know I spoke to my agent and he has a different claim number they can use to clear any balance and cover me until the body shop is done. Chris ** said, "No he didn't care that I needed to have the vehicle back or he was calling the police." Do NOT do business with these scumbags. They'll rack up charges, not notify you they are doing so and then threaten to call the police. Worst experience ever and I'll be speaking with their corporate offices. I've kept the text message screenshot.

    I'm a 26 year old Los Angeles resident and rented an Enterprise car through Uber for work purposes and not having money for a downpayment on a car. I had just moved back from New York with no place to live so I lived day and night in that rental waking up to work 8-12 hour days to be able to get my own place and my own car.

    A couple weeks in my rental was impounded because Enterprise did not send my accident report to the DMV within 10 days getting my license suspended. So when I got pulled over not only did I get arrested but everything I owned was in the vehicle. I got out of jail a couple hours later and asked Beverley Hills police department how to obtain my property and they said that I need a rental agreement to show I am the renter. When I called Enterprise to send my rental agreement they refused and said that they will send someone from corporate to obtain the vehicle and I can proceed to get my belongings from them. I didn't want my stuff in the hands of anybody else and pleaded to just send it over and I can get my belongings and they can take the vehicle back and they still refused. I kept calling to see when they would come get the vehicle and nobody could give me any answers or direct me to someone with answers.

    I ended calling down to the tow company to find out from them the car had been returned to Enterprise and I was never notified by Enterprise. I called and called and called Enterprise just to be told they had no clue who had the car and no one to contact on where the vehicle was at. They kept saying, "We are going to email our regional manager" and I never received a call or anything. I called every single day for two weeks straight to get nowhere.

    Two and a half weeks later this lady went on her own to search deep into what was going on just to tell me that when they received the car they did not send any of my belongings to lost and found but they sent the car to a auto body shop and another third party place to have it cleaned with all of my belongings still in the car. Everything I owned was in the car and when I told them I was coming down to claim my belongings the whole cabin of the car had been cleared (I had stuff everywhere in my car) and only my underwear were left in the trunk. I had four duffle bags full of clothes, a Vizio television, my cellphones and a bunch of miscellaneous items ALL GONE!

    Now Enterprise is telling me even though they refused to let me go in the car that they are not liable for any missing items. I own absolutely nothing now and have to go through court just to even obtain my license back for their mistake. It absolutely hurts me more than anything that everything I owned and worked hard for can just get taken from me and Enterprise will just shrug it off and say, "Oh well we don't care". Not to mention I paid 1200 a month for this rental for three months. So I overpaid you guys and get a slap in the face as a return. This hurts and all I'm left with is this pain and some underwear. I have literally had to live with the clothes I had on my back and the underwear left in my trunk and nothing to compensate for anything I owned.

    I rented a Jeep from FLL in July 2017 and upon driving away in their vehicle my husband, myself and rep of Enterprise went over entire vehicle and marked all the scratches and dents on vehicle including a dented bumper. The computer screen with the rep was basically lit up in red of all the dents and bumps. Not saying the vehicle was bad but wanted to mark everything for this very reason.

    A month after returning home I started getting a call from a rep in PA that was extremely rude stating I dented the front bumper. NOW I got a collections letter. I did not dent this bumper and even called the president of Enterprise to get this resolved. To this day I haven't heard anything else from Enterprise. Just now a collection letter to deal with. If I damage something I would pay but I did not do any of this damage. I asked rep to look at prior records and of course they won't because they are blaming me. So with this being said wonder how many times they have collected on the same bumper.

When I came back at 5 come to find out we did not have the vehicle he guaranteed along with not the price guaranteed try to charge me $280 instead of 159 also they added a 15% markup because of the card found that the manager Brad have lied to me about the price along with the vehicle guaranteed.

    I rent a car for $57/day and they said it included everything. Unfortunately I need to extend for another day and they said it's 56. They charge me $100 for deposit and I didn't see my deposit reflect in my account after I returned the car for a week. When I call them they said I opt in all the full coverage insurance and other things, and the deposit offset all of this. It means they charged me $100 per day for a compact car. Such a ridiculous service and no one ever explain about the extra charges when I went there.

    We were on vacation in Port St Joe FL, our truck had some electrical problems and wouldn't start. We looked up an Enterprise location near us. According to Enterprise there were none. We found 3 online in Panama City Florida 48 miles away. Due to the distance issue I Called Enterprise for assistance in making a reservation. The guy was very helpful, and explained most locations can only travel 10 miles for pick-up. However, he explained, a few locations could travel 50 miles. He said we were in luck the location at 2024 W 23rd St, Panama, City FL 32401 was a location that was authorized to travel 50 miles. He made our reservations for the next day with a 2 o'clock pick up.

    Well 2 o'clock came and went, I called at 2:30 and Location Manager ** said he had no pickups that day. However after actually checking there were pickups (the location opened at 12 he hadn't checked in 2 hours of opening). He told me, There is no way anyone from my location is going 50 miles. I informed him that reservation had told me his location was approved for 50 mile pickup. He said he didn't care what they told me, no one from his location was going over 10 miles to pick anyone up. (Keep in mind we're stranded, in a Very small Beach town.)

    At this point I called customer service and spoke with a supervisor who called **, she said there was no excuse. She apologized and said, "This is Not the way Enterprise does business." And his excuse to her he was working alone, we know that wasn't the case. But, all the apologies in the world did not help. We were totally stranded, and told we would be picked up, and not only did they not come. ** Was beyond rude!!! We had to call our son in Atlanta to turn around and come back. They had left earlier.

    Our son had to drive my husband an hour in awful storm, as I am disabled. ** the location manager didn't care I was disabled and we're stranded. That was our problem to get there, he said over and over no one at his store was driving 50 miles. He didn't let them go over 10. They made it to the location (1-hour time difference). ** checked out my husband and told him there was a location in Port St Joe after all. What a surprise, why didn't reservation or ** just tell us there was a location not 10 minutes from us. ** told my husband I was covered to drive, (she didn't have my license so how) yet she didn't give him a copy of the contract. And she told him the dent above the wheel well is not as big as a golf ball so they're not worried. They Know Its There.

    ** said, "I will email the contract to you," she did the whole order on her tablet, keep that in mind. She had my husband enter his email address, and would email it to him immediately. My husband arrived back 3 1/2 hours later, it took her forever to do the contract on her tablet. My husband checked when he returned No Contract. And of course they were closed by then.

    Our insurance company needed information of the rental information. Since it was a weekend, and no contract we had to wait to have our car towed, no information to give insurance company. It would be 2 different deductibles if they didn't do it all at the same time. As 2 different departments handle mechanical breakdowns.

    So 9 am we called Enterprise office at 2024 W 23rd St Panama City where the very rude ** said he was manager. I have never had anyone speak to me so rudely, total lack of professionalism and Zero Customer Service. His only worry was himself and stating over and over he was the manager. After the 9 am call to Enterprise for the contract we were told they were emailing it. Hours later still No Contract from Enterprise. I called and spoke with **, I told her we still had not received the contract, and I ask if she could please send it.

    ** said, "I don't have access to log on a computer." OK you just took my husband's information the day before and told him she would email it immediately. She laughed, and said ** would handle us. I told her, "Look the body shop is going to be closed. We need the contract." She said, "I don't have log in information to get on a computer." I was very upset, at this point you could easily tell they were withholding the contract on purpose.

    I again called customer service and spoke with Another supervisor. Again I was told this is not how Enterprise does business. Well it obviously it was exactly how Enterprise does do business with managers like ** and **. The supervisor put me on hold and called the office, they would be emailing it right out. I told the guy I spoke with, "No. I will be staying on the line until I actually receive the contract."

    Finally at 3:33 I received the email, I guess to be ugly I received like 5 copies of the email about 5 minutes apart. Reservations and ** told us there was no issue dropping the car off at another location. Of course when we called they said there would be a 50$ charge to drop it off at the Port St Joe location 10 minutes from us. My husband spoke to a lady (who is store manager for Tuesday) so who knows who the manager actually is at this location. After my husband told her ** said there was no charge to drop at another location. She graciously reduced the no fee to $30.00.

    I have to say we have always in the last 35 years used no one but Enterprise and always ask for Enterprise through our Insurance company. I will Never rent another car from Enterprise since Enterprise chooses to hire rude incompetent people to work for them. This cost us an additional $680.00 on the rental house. Because of the incompleteness of the reservations made at a location an hour away from us. The failure of Store location manager ** to follow proper store procedures and check to actually see if he had a pickup when he opened the store. Not 2 hours later when I called. And **'s failure to just tell us, yes there is a location right near you. Port St Joe is his next location on West Florida coast. And the antics of the store staff it has cost us over $850 plus 2 days of work.

    All I can say is BEWARE of any dealings with Enterprise Rent A Car. What reservations tells you is not even worth the phone call. And their slogan ''We'll pick you up'' even from a location authorized according to reservations and the supervisor at Customer Service to travel up to 50 miles. Don't count on Enterprise Rent A Car. They won't pick you up, they will leave you stranded.

    Thanks to Enterprise rent a car and their employees. That was a perfect vacation for me to recover from my surgery. Ended with 2 days of total hell, my cast got wet, my incision is infected from getting wet and our stress level is worse than before we left Atlanta. So don't think just because you used Enterprise Rent a car in the past you can trust them, call someone else, call anyone but Enterprise Rent A Car and stay as far away as possible from the 2024 W 23rd St Panama City, FL location with employees Manager ** and **. They will talk to you awful, laugh at you while they play games with your life and not give a second thought to the lives they impact with their childish games. So buyer or renter in this case beware and run as far from Enterprise Rent A Car as you can.

    Went in to get a rental for a day or two and was given a car, 2016 Hyundai Sonata, black with beige interior. The front seats were disgusting with stains and had to put towels down in case I had a passenger. No floor mats so put towels down there also so when it was returned, it was clean. That vehicle should be taken aside and the front seats thoroughly cleaned before re-renting to anyone else and if they have to use it, give the customer a huge discount. The male employee in there is not a people person. Apparently not comfortable with people. The female was great and she had given her 2-week notice as she stated it was the worst place to work.

This crew is exceptional. I will never go anywhere else but to this one place for life.

    I could go on and on and on about how OUTSTANDING THEY ARE AMAZING but what really stands out the most is after I get the rental and I receive a call thanking me for renting at the establishment and then they ask me if the car I rented is up to my expectations and If I need anything or if I am having any problems.

There were 3 things she needed - utility bill, proof of employment and proof of insurance. She had all 3! But because her driver's license didn't have the same address as her utility bill, they would not rent to her!!! I don't get it! She even offered to pay CASH! No, they don't take cash!!!

    I wish that I had read the reviews on this site before I rented from this company after my car accident. I received my rental with some very small dings in the front drivers side bumper which the female rep told me not to worry about because they were aware of them. When I returned the vehicle there was nothing different about it so despite my better judgment I didn’t take pictures because I knew I didn’t bump, ding, nudge, swipe or cause any other damage to the vehicle. Imagine my surprise when I got a call saying they were filing a claim for damage to the front bumper. I could not believe what I was hearing. The claim they sent to my insurance was for $1200.00 worth of damage.

    I'm still flabbergasted and extremely pissed that my insurance paid it! And even though they deemed it not my fault with no evidence of impact, Enterprise is still demanding my $500 deductible with a threat that I won’t be able to rent a car from them or the sister companies until it’s paid. I would laugh if this was funny. Believe me Enterprise I won't be using your company EVER again and I plan to make sure I tell anyone and everyone that I know who are even thinking of renting a vehicle from you of my experience and to read these reviews from people like me who you have scammed with your shady business practices of false claims!

In addition, I went through several days of trying to get my refund and between the branch where I rented and their corporate division there is not transparency by documentation on where my money is after this accident and who is responsible for the return and when by documentation.

    This is obviously a B2B issue with transparency to the customer whose money is still not in their account as agreed once liability was "picked-up" by the person who hit you in an Enterprise vehicle. Here is some of the documentation documented and still no one will send me anything on where my refund is actually: DRU Rep: Kiana - Enterprise claim no: ** damage recovery unit: Maxine claim representative: Sep. 20th, 2017 at 12;04 PM. Scott **: ** of Encompass Auto and Home Insurance: claim number: **:

    Stated that she hasn't a corporate phone number and address: 15 min. to call the FCC for transparency into why my funds are in their account after the release back into my account by Onya, in the DRU Enterprise department has lost dropped the ball and states that it is the responsibility of the branch to handle the return of the funds their way. When I stated that Samantha already told me that she spoke with the branch manager and the corporate office would be returning the funds back to my CC/DC left me without a contact number until today after spending: 15 min. on the phone with Maxine in Enterprises claim department about where is my confirmation of this return going to the corporate office and why I can't have proof of this? I was give no rationale except she will give this information to me now although this was the reason for my call initially.

    I am emailing corporate/complaint: Office Line: ** // 1-800-261-7331 and supervisor. Email address: Enterprise contact Information: ** FCC needs to tell me be informed of this gray and nontransparent area in practice with the B2B banking industry and holding of funds that was to be returned once the liability as Onya confirmed was covered by Encompass Auto and Home insurance by Mr. Brian ** that hit me on Sep. 1st, 2017 and the vehicle inspected on the 5th has no confirmation of anything related to my account documented. Email was done to the branch on Sep. 14th, by Onya, and is to take (3-5) business days for processing to my account and that my bank may have another processing time.

    My complaint: I have been told that these steps happened without confirmation numbers and or documentation. I want the documentation of these request sent to my email with the same dates and time to verify the steps taken to refund my account and how the refund was to take place with the date and time a policy on this refund.

    I have requested the transparency into the refund and haven't to date received any proof of the processing back into my account for processing my refund. Please forward me all the conversations and the steps that are to process this refund. Question: What do you think should happen to this agency as they keep a hold of the funds from my account?

I rent the car from Chicago Grand Location on 13th July and return back next week. Now after two months company is not paying back my deposit money. They said they finish the business with Uber so they are not responsible. I'm a single mom and drive Uber to pay my bills. Any legal advice would be appreciated.

    I rented a cargo van from Enterprise for 24 hrs. When I inspected it prior to pick up, it was heavily shaded between 2 large vans. It was also a very overcast day. I saw no visible damage. I returned a sofa to Ikea and then parked it in my driveway until I returned it the next day. This was the day after hurricane Irma and Ikea was a ghost town. I parked the van far away, mainly because I was nervous about backing it in! When I returned the van to Enterprise, SURPRISE! They found a dent on the driver's side very high up. It would have to have been caused by a truck's door and I told them this. So, they got inside the van and looked around and determined that the damage came from my sofa banging around inside. (They let you off with a golf ball size dent or smaller.) This dent was inside those parameters, but they claimed that there was a crease showing from the bottom of the dent.

    BTW when I returned the van it was in full sunshine... Only way to see it! They charged me $500 (my insurance deductible). I decided to take pictures for my own record. Here's where the scam happened... The dent on the outside was directly behind a reinforced column inside the van. There's no possible way anything from the inside could cause damage at that point!!! When the manager was inspecting the inside of the van with the little golf ball sized card, he was measuring something that WASN'T EVEN THERE!!!

    I've rented many cars all over the country, even from Enterprise, and I usually have issues with upselling, or messy cars, empty tanks, they show on the receipt as full. Hidden damage not recorded upon pick up, and almost always rude a staff that lies about everything. The Enterprise at Kona Airport in Hawaii is the exception, no issue, friendly staff, exact car I ordered waiting, (found my name on a reserved slip in car). All rental car co. should take a lesson from this location. Only problem was a couple of small cockroaches hiding in car, not their fault, as this island has them everywhere. Upon returning car it was easy, no waiting, they asked me how was my trip, was on shuttle in 5 minutes, that never happens anywhere. They deserve 10 stars for outstanding customer service.

    Returned the car after 7 days of use. The agent went and did inspection of car. Said the passenger side rocker panel damaged. I absolutely denied having made contact with any object. Proceeds to tell me that the contract said the vehicle was clean, no damage when I took it. I stated that possibly the renting agent missed the small dent. All they cared about was that it stated clear upon rental. Then the agent says "You can file report of accident with my carrier or pay cash." I said "I am not filing claim as there was no accident." Charged my credit card $500.00. Wanted me to sign accident report, replied "Not signing accident report as there was no accident. I think it is bogus unless you were looking for this dent you would not see it. I believe it is a ripoff." WILL NEVER USE ENTERPRISE AGAIN.

    312 4th Ave Huntington WV location. When I went in the guy at the front desk (**) asked me my name and as soon as I gave it he asked if I was in a wreck with a college student the week before on 20th street and I said yes. He then told me his roommate’s girlfriend was best friends with the girl that hit me. When we sat down to look for cars I told him that I had liability insurance and the girl that hit me, insurance company was paying for the car.

    I told him I had had a lapse in coverage the day I wrecked but was currently covered. He called and verified with the girl’s insurance that they would cover comprehensive so I could get a car since mine was not safe to drive. Twice he asked them "are you sure???" She didn't have coverage the day of accident and again her insurance company said yes. He verified with my insurance that it was valid as well but also thru I comment he needed to alert them I had a wreck before I had them as it was his job.

    Afterwards asked if he could run my debit card for a dollar. I told him I could give him a dollar or he could run my card for 43cent but bank was already closed so I couldn't deposit it and it was a holiday weekend so I needed him to run my card for .40 cent (which is at the company's discretion to do less). That way I wasn't driving my car which was unsafe all weekend. He told me no so when I asked for the manager and informed him that he was friends with the girl that hit me, tried to discourage the insurance company to not give me a car and had made me feel less that crap on the bottom of his shoe and I needed them to help me run less on the authorization hold (proof in itself if they have a option to do less if it's at their discretion and they knew not doing so would leave me in an unsafe vehicle. It's definitely them just picking on me because they can).

    The manager (**) said “Well mam, honestly how do I know you are not going to steal one of our cars? I mean honestly it's a red flag that do you not only not even have a dollar in your account but you also had a lapse in your coverage.” (I've never been so embarrassed in my life. I've never been accused of being a thief before especially by a place I was giving business).

    I know I had a lapse but I also just lost my job of 14 years as we'll have just graduated from trade school last month and things are tight. But anyways of course I was upset who wouldn't be. I called him a ** for talking to me like that and the manager said “Well not only will I not rent you a car but I will also make sure you can never rent from Enterprise.” Immediately after leaving the store I called the girl’s insurance to inform them they wouldn't give me a car and I was treated like a thief. He put me on hold (talked with **, Washington Erie headquarters first notice of loss department) to call them himself only to come back on the line to inform me that the manager wouldn't let him speak, kept over talking him and saying horrible stuff about me.

    Not only will I never go back to Enterprise, I guess my only option is to get a hold of my lawyer Tuesday to let him know what happened and hope that he can help me get these horrible employees out of the store so they don't discriminate on someone else or treat another customer that way. If they only knew what they did to me emotionally. Everyone has hard times at one time or another in their life but how dare them talk to customers like - I have never in my life felt so low in my life and I definitely didn't deserve that.

    So, the only reason I was even forced to get a rental car is because somebody backed into my car while I was parked in front of a restaurant. The entire first day I really needed the rental, Enterprise had none available, and the whole process of getting the repairs started was delayed, because I had no transportation to leave with. The day I got it I was asked for a $50 deposit. When I asked why, I was very coldly told "You entered into an agreement with that guy's insurance, not us." Then, the body shop that fixed my car never called me to inform me that my car was finished, and since the car was finished on a Friday, by that Tues-Wednesday I had over $300 in charges from Enterprise, who then told me "That's not our fault, we're just the middle man."

    The one good thing I can say is that they were very helpful in getting the charge taken care of. Now here I am, a week or so since I've returned this rental, and have had a bill for almost $60 snatched from my account for tolls. The actual tolls, which were not covered by the insurance, amounted to $38, but each individual toll was assessed an almost $4 fee, with them capping off the charges somewhere around $20-30. Their customer service agent asked me if I would like to have my e-mail added so that in the future they could automatically send me an itemized bill for my tolls... I hope to God I never, EVER have to use Enterprise again in my life, and NO I would not recommend them to anyone else.

    I rented a compact at the Leeds-Bradford airport to use during a 3-week vacation. While navigating a narrow, cobblestone village road in a walled-village, I realized I had to turn around and go in the opposite direction. I made a tight 3-point turn in the course of which my rear bumper tapped a wall behind me. When I returned home I viewed the damage and noticed a small scrape. What I did not notice, until I returned the car, was that the plastic bumper was slightly misaligned with the body of the car, with the bumper protruding a few millimeters on its upper edge. The Enterprise rep pointed it out and explained that the car would have to go in for repairs, and that, since the insurance that I took out limited my liability to 700 pounds, that is the additional amount they would have to charge my card. I thought he was joking because the damage was so slight. The rep was not charging for the scrape, but rather for the bumper protrusion.

    I told him that it was hardly noticeable and could have been realigned with a slight bit of pressure. I half-jokingly offered to do that then and there. In any event, I agreed to have them add the 700 pound charge to my card, from which the repair would be deducted. Once the repair bill was satisfied, Enterprise would refund the balance to my card. I was given a report number, contact information for the repair unit, and contact for the branch manager. Around a week after turning the car in I emailed the repair unit asking for a status report on the repair. No response. I sent a second request 5 days later and was told they were going to check. I waited another 5 days and sent another email to the repair unit, with a copy to the branch manager. Two days later, August 23, I received an answer to the effect that they STILL couldn't give me a status report, but that rep was going to treat this with urgency.

    Not having heard a word further, I contacted Enterprise corporate office, Escalation Support, Aug. 28. I was told they would reach out to the regional office responsible for Leeds-Bradford airport. I heard nothing, so contacted the same office yesterday, September 1. The rep there confirmed that the Aug. 28 inquiry had been sent... but again, no response. This rep said he was going refer my complaint to the corporate office. I told him that if I didn't hear something very soon, I would contact my credit card company and rescind the 700 pound charge. PERIOD. I WAS a loyal customer of Enterprise, using this company for all my car and van rentals exclusively. No more.

    I had the unfortunate, disrespectful experience with ** at the Enterprise location 6845 N Dale Mabry Hwy Tampa Fl 813-875-8096. I was loaned a car from a different location, due to a recall on my new car. The location I rented from was closed, so I couldn't talk with or resolve the issue I was having. I was told to call this other location, so I did. To my horror. I haven't used Enterprise in a very long time, I had always had good previous experiences, at Brandon location...This time, Enterprise rental "loaned" me, as my car had a recall & this is an agreement with my car servicer. When I got the call that my car was ready (I was not given a time/day, as service dept didn't know how long it would take to get the parts in). I was at work and I work till 8/9 pm. The location (most all locations) was not open today & every other location would not be open when I could return the car today at 9 pm...

    I was called into work early & I work til 8/9 p.m. No Enterprise rentals are open then, according to **. So, my concern was, I have to have a car to get back & forth to work, I asked him what my options were to return the car on Sunday instead, when I am off. He proceeded to tell me, if the car wasn't' returned today, that was my problem, not his!!!! Wait, I have no other options??!! Isn't this a rental car business?? No other customer has ever had work/scheduling issues & had to extend the rental 24 hours? So, I want to make sure I understand this correctly, Enterprise is a car rental place, that profits off of renting cars, yet there are no other options for me to keep the car for 1 extra day??

    He was aggressive in tone, frustrated, unprofessional & a bully. Not to mention, the car had a flat on the way home, that I had to change myself, in the dark, once again, no one told me there was a service number I could call, in case of an emergency!!! The whole experience, has been overwhelmingly upsetting!!! The sad part is, I was off Sunday, Monday & Tuesday & a nice ride to the beach in the convertible rental, may have been an option for me. NOT NOW!! I WOULDN'T SPEND A DIME WITH A COMPANY WHO'S CULTURE ACCEPTS THIS TYPE OF HOSTILITY & NO CAN DO ATTITUDE!!! 1 last point, the car smelled like puke!!! Smh all in all, horrific experience!!

    I rented a car for 2 days to go to my niece's wedding. I picked up the car close to closing time. When I got home I checked my bank account. They charged me TWICE for just under $300.00 for a 2 day rental. That's just under $600.00! I called them the next morning as I was driving and explained that they double charged me. They said it would be taken care of. Not realizing what that meant I was ok with it. So when I returned the car the 2 charges were still on my bank account. My total cost for 2 days was $98.**. He said he took care of the double charges when I returned it. Not true.

    The day after I returned the van those charges were still pending and the $98.** hasn't been charged yet. I called them. I was on hold for a very long time. I guess phone customers don't matter. So I called customer service. They said the hold would take 3-5 business days to clear. Of course Monday is a holiday (today is Sat.) so I could possibly have to wait for over another week to get my $500.00 back since there are only 4 business days next week. I told them this was not acceptable and that I would take my business elsewhere next time.

    I have always rented from Enterprise but this is my last time. They never wash their windows and you can't tell until the sun hits it. Every time I rent a car from there the windows are filthy. Did I say FILTHY? I've said something but it's always the same (filthy windows) when I rent from them. This summer we have rented 3 times from them. This is the last straw. I recommend NOT using Enterprise. They are more expensive than others too but I use them because they are closer. I'll drive the few extra miles from here on out.

Why would I be able to make the reservation in the first place if there were no vehicles available! Yes, I should have learned the first time but I figured I'd give them a second chance. Totally ruined my plans and trying to get another vehicle on such short notice at other rental companies was completely out of my budget.

    I rented a car from Enterprise for a Doctor appointment with my son in South Carolina. On our way back our passenger back tire blew out on the HWY. We were lucky there were no cars behind us. I called customer service and explained them the situation. That is where everything started. They wanted me to drive 110 miles on the replacement tires to Atlanta and get a new car. Or we know, the manufacturer properly labeled on the tire to not drive more than 80 Km, approximately 50 mile on the Donut Tire.

    We find a nearest Enterprise which is approximately 11 miles. We called and they started asking about if the reservation is about Business or Leisure. As soon as my wife starting explaining the situation, the lady in Lavonia, GA office asked her to hold on and she needed to talk the Manager. She came back and she said there is nothing available in their location!!! We know it was a liar because she asked about what type of reservation when she picked the phone first.

    She said the nearest location is Greenville SC Airport. We drove back 50 miles to Greenville Airport. There they tried to blame the blowout on us. That was ridiculous. Back to Alabama to return the Rental car, the assistant manager in Madison Blvd office just said they are not responsible for a blowout tire of a car we rented from them. The moral of Story, Choose another rental car instead of Enterprise, everything in their motto (choose us and will pick you up is a liar).

    Enterprise told me three times, by three different agents, including a supervisor, they would pick me up. After a 2 hour and 30 minute wait, I was then advised I would not be picked up. On Friday, August 25, 2017, I was returning to Los Angeles from the Eastern Sierras from a camping trip. My transmission went out in Big Pine, CA.

    I originally called the Bishop, CA Enterprise at 11:15 a.m. on Friday, August 25, 2017. I advised I was in Big Pine, CA, which is about 15 miles south of Bishop. The agent stated she did not know where Big Pine was. I said, "how can you live in Bishop and not know where Big Pine is?" The agent described that she had moved just three (3) days ago but needed to get out. She put me on hold to determine if I could be picked up. I told the agent specifically I was at the Shell station in Big Pine. (This is a small town, maybe 30 storefronts on one road. There is only one Shell station. I also gave the address.)

    After the hold, the agent came back on the line and told me, yes, I could be picked up, but it would take an hour. I said OK and waited. At 11:23 a.m. I received an email verification from Enterprise, which I thought was very efficient since I didn't give them my email. Seems I am a member of Enterprise Plus Loyalty Program. At 11:41 I received a voice mail from Daniel advising me that a sedan was not available, only a pick up, and that it would be provided at the same cost. His only instruction to me was to call if that was not OK. Hence, I didn't call.

    At 12:24 p.m. I started making calls to the Bishop office because no one showed up I couldn't get anyone to answer. I called the Enterprise 800# because no one was picking me up as promised and I couldn't even get Bishop to pick up the phone. I spoke with an agent who escalated me to a supervisor. They couldn't get through to the Bishop branch either. I was told emails were being sent and the situation would be monitored.

    At 1:02 p.m. I finally got through to the Bishop office and spoke with Adriana. She said she was the supervisor. She advised that the office was closed for lunch between noon 1 p.m. I asked why isn't there an announcement stating that, and how come the main office didn't know that? She had no answer. However, she advised that Daniel immediately to come pick me up. She appeared to know where I was as she did not ask. I stated I had been waiting already for almost two (2) hours, and I wanted a definite time of his arrival. I was told 20 minutes.

    At 1:28 p.m. I called Daniel, as I had his number in my phone from the truck for sedan issue. He said he had not left yet but would come get me right away. He didn't ask where I was either. Hence, I assumed he knew. Someone does not say they will pick you up if they do not know where you are. However, at 1:38 p.m. Daniel called me asking where I was. I said the Big Pine Shell station, just like I told the agent at 11:15 a.m. He said that was too far, and that I would not be picked up. I advised him that three (3) different agents, including himself, promised me I would be picked up. He said, sorry, too far, against the rules and hung up on me.

    I was obviously quite livid. I spent the next 40 minutes trying to thru to the Bishop office, or the main Enterprise number. Bishop never answered. The main Enterprise number first sent my call back to the non-answering Bishop office. I called again, waited for a supervisor, who advised that the Regional Office would deal with this, but it wouldn't be that day. I was advised I would be contacted by them on Monday, August 28, 2017. I asked for a number to follow up with the Regional Office, but was advised I could not receive that information.

    I have never received the promised contact from Enterprise Regional Office. Hence, I contacted AAA at 2:15 p.m. to have my car towed to Bishop so I can it at a place for repair or sale and get the rental car. I was told by AAA it would be 3:30 p.m. before they could pick me up. Obviously, if I was told at 11:15 a.m. that National would not pick me up I could have saved three (3) hours! I was very concerned because I still had a long drive ahead of me, and did not want to be driving through the mountains at night. Hence, the reason I left Devils Postpile beyond Mammoth Mountain at 9 a.m.

    At 3:15 p.m. AAA called me and said it was going to take another hour. I advised of my plight, and that Enterprise was closing at 5 p.m. Hence, they were nice enough to provide the ride to the Enterprise office. When I finally got to the Enterprise office, and after doing the paperwork, a young, slovenly appearance young man introduced himself as Daniel and asked how I was. I explained not good, going over the litany of problems discussed above. He first said to me, "you didn't call back to confirm about the truck, so I didn't know if I was to pick you up." I said, "your voice mail said to only call if it was not OK." He looked at me sheepishly.

    I then complained that Supervisor Adriana and Daniel, on two separate occasions, said they would pick me up. He said "we didn't know where you were." I said, "why would you say you would pick someone up if you didn't know where they were." He had no response. As we walked around the truck Daniel told me he would give me an extra day free and 20% off. He wrote that down on contract. I told him the extra day didn't matter that much. He said I would have to return the vehicle to LAX, which I said was OK because it was not that much further than the Marina Del Rey office. I did not use the truck for any purpose but to ride from Bishop to my home.

    When we walked around the truck we only examined the body. I asked Daniel if we could go inside and change the amount on my credit card, and he told me not to worry, he would do everything on the computer. He then circled the 366.19 at the bottom and told me with the 20% off the price would be about $200. I did not understand his math at that point, but accepted his representation.

    Because of all these circumstances I had the most uncomfortable experience of driving in the mountains entering Los Angeles downhill at night. Let's say I was not singing Enterprises praises at that time. When I returned the vehicle at LAX on August 25, 2017, I was advised that there was 20% off in the computer for the rental, but not the drop off fee. While 20% was inadequate for the horrible inconvenience caused to me, and I intended to write for a larger discount, or even a waiver of all rental charges. LAX advised it appeared that it was only applicable to the rental

    $12 off for having to wait for 3 plus hours and not even be picked up. That is quite an insult. When I checked in at LAX I was advised there was a small pebble rock damage to the windshield. I said, yes, I noticed that about 5 minutes after driving away. I explained that we only examined the body of the car, the windshield was not involved.

    I was told that the Bishop office would call me on Monday, August 28, 2017, to deal with all these charges issues, but of course, I never received any call. Each time I call Enterprise I hear how important the customer is and how Enterprise will pick you up. However, this is all quite false. Enterprise told me the Regional Office would contact me. That is false. Enterprise told me the Bishop Office would contact me. That is false. Enterprise told me three (3) times they would pick me up. That was false. Enterprise told me about $200 would be taken off the bill, which I do not yet know is false because I have not been contacted and the full amount, including the security deposit, is still pending on my credit card.

He said "NO, it might need an oil change." I'm going to drive the car 20 miles in 5 days... I called corporate and they were no help, just that they would file my complaint. After 1/2 hour, the Enterprise man let me have it and wouldn't even show me how to start the car as my vehicle uses a key. Very rude and after that.

    Overall the Enterprise staff is usually nice. Their check-in and checkout process isn't as good as it could be. Both processes take a lot of the consumer's time. Their vehicles aren't the cleanest. They should differentiate vehicles used by pet owners and no pet owners. Not all Enterprise sites can deliver your rental. Beware of "false" advertisement that Enterprise will pick you up or deliver your rental to you. Not true because not all Enterprise sites can do that.

    I wish I could leave less than 1 star. THE MANAGER and ZACH were terrible. HORRENDOUS. AWFUL. I called the corporate office who wanted to speak with the manager who refused to get on the phone with them. He refused to get on the phone because he knew he was going to be told something that was different than what he told me... They confirmed my reservation, had the keys in their hand had my credit card, ID, etc. And then decided they flat out just didn't want to rent to me because I pissed the manager off. I pointed out that he won't help, that he could at least offer to get someone on the phone.

    Corporate office apologized a dozen times for the Boise airport enterprise and their manager. They acknowledged a dozen times that he was flat out wrong. Even the escalation department could not understand why their manager did nothing to resolve an error on enterprise part. They couldn't even get the guy to speak with them on the phone. He literally went outside while they were asking to speak with them so he wouldn't have to talk with them. He refused to take the phone. I have a video recording of Zach that I would LOVE to send to the district manager. THIS IS NOT some gray area where there must be more to it. Just a couple of boys behind the counter on a power trip...

    Corporate office was helpful and professional and took care of things in a matter of minutes but management at Boise Airport won't lift a finger to help when they mess up... Manager needs some training in management. Zach got thrown under the bus by his manager. He didn't even know what he was supposed to be doing... Zach stepped in and made a situation that was 100% resolved into an issue... Again. It was to the point I recorded it. I WOULD LOVE TO SHARE THIS VIDEO.

    This horrible, horrible disgusting business on Third Street in Jacksonville Beach Florida has turned my life into a living hell!!! I had one of their cars for two days then changed it to a week only to discover on Friday the scumbags working there had my car towed off the lot just 3 days after I left in my rental!!! These disgusting lowlifes pulled this ** when every time I've rented from there I've left my car!!! An employee named Jamie knew I was leaving it and she even knew where I was parking it!!! When I called to keep the car longer I asked if I should move my car and was told no!!!

    Then just 4 days after renting the car I bought a ** car at Enterprise!!! I then turned their car over to my salesman who had it returned right there on Atlantic Blvd. So I called the scumbags at the location I had rented from a few 5 days earlier on my birthday on August 11th to let them know what was happening and again asked if I should move my car and was told no so I said I'd get it as soon as I could arrange something but the disgusting losers had already had my car towed on 8/14/17!!!

    The Enterprise salesman gave me a ride to that location on Friday August 18th so he could evaluate my car towards a trade-in only to discover my car was missing and the little ** who I dealt with was just total trash!!! The poor salesman took me back to the sales location where I waited for well over two hours for two separate calls from the area manager who has to be the world's biggest scumbag to see how he was going to fix this **!!! It turned out he would do nothing for me!!! In the meantime because of you pieces of garbage my cars has been impounded as of now for 12 ** days!!!

    There is apparently a mangled sign about towing at only one of the entrances and it was the one I didn't use. Not that I would have even noticed it since every time I've ** rented there over the last 15 years I have left my car right there in that parking lot!!!

    DO NOT RENT FROM THIS OFFICE! I like Enterprise, but the workers at this office are crooks! I rented a car for work after someone rear-ended my personal car. When I started the rental, they said that their printer was not working so they could not give me any paperwork to sign. I told them that I just wanted to pay for the rental - no insurance coverage - because my auto insurance covers it and I was to be reimbursed for the rental costs only. They agreed. I was in a hurry because I was late for work so I had no other option.

    When I returned the car over a week later, they said the printer was still not working and they would have to email me the receipt. It took about 20 minutes for the email to arrive at which point I was home. When I saw they overcharged me, I called the office and they said they would refund the difference immediately. When that did not happen, I went back to the office and they again said that the difference would be refunded but it would take a few days to process. After a week, no refund.

    I contacted my credit card company and disputed just the amount overcharged. During the investigation phase, Enterprise charged me AGAIN. My credit card company said this constitutes fraud, canceled my card and sent me a new one with a new number. I later received a letter from my credit card company saying the matter was now closed.

    Now this Enterprise office charged me yet AGAIN! When I called my credit card company they said the merchant can resubmit a charge through Mastercard even though the card number has changed. Now I'm on the phone with my credit card company again and they are suggesting I file a police report since they keep running my card with no signature.

    I rented a 9 seats car from Alamo (via RentalCars.com) from 27 May to 8 Jun 2017 at Heathrow Airport. It was Enterprise Rent A Car handled the administrative work for the rental. The car insurance has an excess amount of GBP500 which I paid up front. I returned the car on 8 Jun, 0741 with a dent but the paint work still perfectly intact. It was clearly stated in the Vehicle Accident Report “a dent to the OSR of the vehicle above the wheel arch" issued by Enterprise Rent A Car when the vehicle was returned. I did not even notice the dent as it was really very small. The staff told me it was likely hit by another car parked beside me.

    When I received the refund from Enterprise for the excess amount on 17 Jun via my credit card, I was shocked that it was only GBP 28.50, ie the repair costs for a small dent was GBP471.50. I did not receive any statement on the repair charges. Followed my queries on the exorbitantly high repair costs, some pictures of the car taken on 9 Jun (one day after the car was returned) were sent to me. I was very angry to see that some pictures showing other serious damages to the car (other than a small dent). I then realized that I was bearing the repair costs for other serious damages caused by someone from 8 Jun 0741 to 9 Jun.

    Again, I communicated with Enterprise requested them to investigate the case. Their reply was that the vehicle was not damage when I took over, so the damages were caused by me! It is ridiculous! Why should I be responsible for damages caused by others? I appealed again on 12 Aug to request for acceptable explanations or to reduce the repair costs significantly. I also indicated that this issue is still outstanding since I first communicated with them on 8 Jul and I do not wish to drag it further. I requested for reply by 16 Aug before some other appropriate actions are taken. To date, no answer from Enterprise. Where is the justice to a tourist to UK? Perhaps Alamo or RentalCars might want to help us. Thank you!

When we pick up the vehicle I was told even though it is paid for by the insurance company we have to put up $50.00 hold for fuel if we did not bring it back with the same amount at check in. We got it with the gauge at 3/4 tank. A week later my wife's car got fixed and we returned the rental with a full tank of gas. I was told I would get an email showing the deposit was returned in full. I did get the email and it showed only $21.87 was returned my debit card account. I immediately called and was told Progressive did not pay for one day and they took $28.13 for that day. I called Progressive and they assured me they are paying for the entire time of the rental.

    I spent about two hours back and forth on the phone and was told wait 2 days for the $28.13 to be credited to my account. I waited three days and still was missing that funds. I drove to the office and demanded all paperwork that was involved in the transaction. They gave me a copy of the difference and promised it would be in my account. I finally had this issue resolved when my money was returned the next day. That was my thinking until 2 1/2 months later I check my account on August 10, 2017 and found a charge from Enterprise Auto in the amount of $26.42.

I can dispute it with my banking institution. I did that and have since change my Debit card information and have to wait 10 business days for that funds to be returned to my account. The sad thing is if I had the capability to take money from their account I would be still sitting in jail on some felony charge for stealing.

First of all I rented a vehicle that was extremely dirty it looked as though it had never been Cleaned inside. There was snot on the steering wheel. I at the time of the rental "reserved" a small SUV to pick up 10 days later and when I arrived on my lunch break to pick up my reserved vehicle was told "sorry we don't have any smaller SUV's right now". This costed me several hundred dollars more in fuel expenses during our family vacation.

    I then returned the large SUV to downsize for expense reasons and was again told "sorry we have no smaller vehicles at this time". Enterprise did waive the upgrade fee however it still costed me extra gas money. Then after all this I received a smaller car several days later that needed an oil change and fluids. And I returned the vehicle to Enterprise "one stop shop" that All in the same room has GEICO, Enterprise and a body shop. Ten days later I was contacted stating that I needed to return my vehicle which I had already done. I informed the lady that I had already returned the vehicle. I had been told by the body shop that I could "unload my personal belongings and leave the keys in the vehicle" because it was pouring down rain and they would "take care of it".

    Now we are 19 days later and I'm fighting Enterprise for my $200 security deposit because they have in house communication errors and this is somehow my fault!! And on top of it they say I "technically owe them more money" and "someone is responsible for the 10 days the vehicle sat at the collision place" WTF!!!

When I got checked in to my hotel, I called the main customer service line and explained the problem. The agent assured me that all of those charges would be removed when I returned the car, then gave me her name and a reference number.

    A few days later, I return the car to the airport and right after I clear security I get another call from my agency. She tells me that every single charge was still on there PLUS a fuel charge. She called the local agent where I was and explained the situation to them, and how their agent assured us that those charges would be removed, and even gave the reference number. The person to whom she spoke grudgingly removed the charges, but said that I had not filled up the car before dropping it off. I have a receipt that says otherwise.

    I get misunderstandings, and I get that things sometimes fall through the cracks. But refusing to take off unauthorized charges AND flat-out lying about the fuel? Inexcusable. I know that my agency only spends a few thousand a year on rental cars and that we don't make a huge difference to them, but I am still going to find another company that will appreciate the money we spend and not try to jerk their customers around.

    I have been in an Enterprise rental for 3 years, consecutively, 365 days a year. I travel for work. Last year there were a couple of hail storms... and the agent in Chesterfield said I had hail damage. I did not, maybe a simple, if it was there I couldn't really see it. I have pictures. I continued with the rental, I was advised several weeks later that I needed to bring the car in as it had been sold. I returned the car and they wanted to collect on the hail damage. I paid a $200 cash "deposit" and told them to call me with estimate and I would pay cash. I mean, how much could it be? I have had one insurance claim my 30+ driving years.

    I wrote on my receipt - do not submit to insurance. They did. I denied the claim. When I asked for a copy of that receipt later, my note was not there. Many missed phone calls, no estimate provided. I am in meetings almost all day every day. When I call Enterprise claims my person never answers the phone, I leave a message, get a call back in the middle of the day 4-6 weeks later. I even took the day off twice and left a message "took tomorrow off call anytime". No call. And repeat. '

    Fast forward 12 months or so later to today. When I went in to rewrite the contract for the next 30 days, I had to choose pay $800 for the "damage" or be denied a car. I refused to pay the $800 (the balance for my insurance deductible. Not the total amount that they came up with for the car that was sold and for the estimate never provided to me). They actually let a loyal customer, a female traveler, stranded without a car in St Louis on a weekend. Amazing. I Ubered back to my hotel. I suppose I am now on a no serve list or something which means I will also be denied all of the points I have accrued. Truly unacceptable way to conduct a customer-centric business. Now, which rental company is looking for a $10-12K/year customer? It WON'T be Enterprise. Tell all of your friends. I will be.

    We reserved a car rental & was told 3 different prices & once we do all the paper work online & go to pick up the car it is very small car. No cruise control knowing we were traveling to NM & then they had given a price for mid size car at 769. Then raised it to 967. When we went to pick it up the guy says that will be 1500. My husband talked to Justin ** Asst Branch manager & after it was said & done we had to pay 1,210.00 for this little car & when we brought it back that day they charged our account another 49.50, don't know why yet said wasn't turned in on time but it was turned in & sitting in the front door, filled with gas & cleaner than when we got it, and they said they couldn't find it on the lot. It was parked in the front door...

    We have used them many times & this is the first time they have jacked us like this. 2 years ago we took a month long trip. The car cost us 750 for the month & no extras when we turned it in & now they think they can get away with a compact car with full size price. We will see about this...

    Enterprise vehicle rental... Be careful about what you reserve for a vehicle. I chose the option of letting them choose for me to save a few bucks. Thought I'd be upgraded from economy to mid size car. Instead I had a 4 wheel drive pickup truck which I DID NOT want. I asked for a car when I saw the truck and they said no, unless I paid an extra 10.00 per day for the car. I'm almost 62, and had to haul my suitcase (almost 50 pounds) in and out of the truck each time I spent the night at a different home, while visiting family back home, and my 87 year old mother had quite a time hoisting herself up and into the vehicle. NOT A happy camper to say the least. Won't book a vehicle with Enterprise again. Grrrrrr.

    I was skeptical about hiring a vehicle through Enterprise as I had read so many complaints but I did speak to a friend who had no issues with the company therefore I chose them because of the lower rates. Picking up the car from Houston 537 North Loop W was so easy, ** and ** were great. I haven't returned the car as yet but I'm anticipating all will be good.

    We rented a car from Enterprise in Salt Lake City for our road trip from June 30 to July 6 in Yellowstone. We bought every kind of insurance that it offered, including the roadside assistance. It was a car with 35k mileage, and at first it was driving okay. After we had a hike at Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, we got back to the car, and the brake did not work.

    Fortunately, we just started it very slowly from roadside, and I managed to stopped the car by emergency brake. It was remote in the National Park, and Enterprise couldn't go there. They said we could use a towing company, paying for it and they would reimburse us later. The car was not safe, and we got them to replace with another car, but we had to tow the car to West Yellowstone, which is about 50-60 miles away from Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. We paid the towing company, and Enterprise has not reimbursed us back after more than a month!! Enterprise is a company that you could not trust!

    I've been renting with you guys for over 6 years and never had an issue until now. For the past 4 years I have made several trips to Florida every year with my family and friends. We usually get 2 larger SUVs and I always try to make a reservation in the beginning of the year for the school break in August. However this year I did the same thing and I made my reservation in the Beginning of the year for two large SUV's and I specifically told the representative on West Street Annapolis to make sure the vehicles were like a Suburban or GMC because we had a issue with luggage and space. Three weeks ago I had an emergency in Minnesota and I had to drive all the way for 1 week so I went with you guys and rented a minivan for the trip for the whole week.

    And on my way back when I dropped the van off I asked again if my reservation and my requests were still good for the week later on the larger SUVs for my trip to Florida and everything was fine until I showed up to pick up the vehicles, they weren't what I asked for and when I asked who I believed was a manager named Sylvester he said "You should know that this is what you get and this is what we have. Take it or leave it, because you never requested a premium SUV." Even though he saw the notes on what exactly we requested, he still gave me a HORRIBLE ATTITUDE AND WALKED AWAY leaving someone else to try to help me who wasn't gonna do it. There is a huge reason why I specifically requested it. I have a couple witnesses that can testify the same thing.

    When we were driving to Florida one of the cars keep beeping for the oil change, and on the other the Bluetooth never worked and the breaks kept making these weird noises so I called the 1800 number and talked to someone who says that the next day someone will try to contact me to see if we CAN BE helped, It's been more than a week and I haven't heard from you guys at all. Is this the kind of CUSTOMER SERVICE YOU DO? How is this possible. There is absolutely no space in those Tahoes so we had to reduce and limit our luggage because our new friend Sylvester decide to be ARROGANT AND VERY RUDE, WALK AWAY AND TELL US TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT and not even try to see if it was what we had asked for was available in another location.

    I received several emails and phone calls from Enterprise. Theresa, risk assessment manager handled the issue. She was very nice and assured me that she personally would visit that site and retrain staff on the policy. She did not know why she was not called by the store manager to deal with the issue. She also had no answer for why they would ask for paystubs from me. But she was responsive and I provided her with my friend's contact info. My friend will be refunded her entire fee for the horrible experience and it sounds like hopefully some education will be happening. So in light of this, I will upgrade my one star to three.

    I went to visit my best friend and her husband in Memphis, TN in the cooper young area. Before I went, my best friend who is low vision and so legally blind spent a half hour on the phone setting up getting a rental vehicle. She could get a better rate, she also insisted on paying since she and her husband were going to keep the car a few extra days. In this 30 minute phone call, she went through various scenarios, and got it all worked out... Or so we thought. We arrived to pick up the vehicle only to be told she needed a state driver's license! She has a valid state id card. I showed them mine - no good. Since they have a surrogate driver policy.

    We were shocked and pretty upset. I got sick of it and threw my card on the table and told them to run it. Again a problem. It was a debit card. They said I needed a credit card. I am a gainfully employed psychologist with the judicial system in my own state.

    I do not believe in credit cards, but hey they could run it as credit right? Nope!! So we sat there for 40 minutes waiting for her manager who was in a meeting to call back. In the meantime I called the corporate office to talk to them and was told: yes, I had to have a credit card, if I did not, then I needed to supply my work history and paystubs!! Wow! I'm already on vacation. Yeah, let me just dig all that out of my suitcase! I didn't realize I was applying for a job there!! I could not believe it!

    Finally, they agreed to let us have the vehicle. Then they tried to charge us 10.00 extra per day for an added driver. We protested again, they finally "waived" that fee as a courtesy even though their policy clearly states, that charge does not apply to a surrogate driver! On top of that, the brakes on this piece of crap Kia, were in serious need of adjustments!!! The absolute nerve!

    When my friend returned the car, the stupid manager there said she waived it as a courtesy at which time my friend informed her of this fact and was met with more nastiness. I rented a vehicle from Budget last year in Houston. No problems, was there 15 mins, paid with my debit, run as credit. No issues. Enterprise, get it together!! Not only do you treat people like criminals, requiring a credit card, work history and other b.s.; your employees obviously don't know the policies and couldn't be bothered to think for themselves and look it up. Serious lack of ADA education!! Absolute worst experience. My friend was humiliated, manager was stupid and uneducated as well as rude. Will NEVER rent from them EVER again!

    Enterprise in general is the worst company on Earth. I'd suggest staying away. Use Getaround or Turo.com they're far more ethical. At their North Laurel branch I rented a car for almost three months but when I returned the car I was in they tried to charge my card again, without my consent, even while I told them not to because I had to move money from the savings account to the checking account. They did not listen to me and the card failed every time and they told me their system would not take it anymore.

    I returned their vehicle July 25, 2017 and noticed several charges on my checking account the next Thursday July 27, 2017. I had been treated very poorly at the Clarksville branch so I left the car and did not stay. Quickly went to go and pick my car up from the body shop. I called into the South Laurel branch whose management also treated me very poorly regarding this (even though they got over $1500 of my money). I paid out about $2600 to different Enterprise branch locations for rentals since April including South Laurel. And just today I spoke with someone named Harshit and said he was the regional vice president (?) who was even worse. He was suggesting I owe them even more than what they already charged me.

    However, I feel like I have been treated as more a nuisance than a loyal customer. If charging people out of nowhere with no evidence of damages, receipt or even a phone call is how they treat their on-time paying customers I'd hate to see what happens to people who are actually bad customers. It should have been at least a courtesy to not charge someone's account till they finalized the receipt! STAY AWAY FROM THESE AWFUL TERRIBLE HORRIBLE PEOPLE!

    I am writing this to let people know how horrifically run Enterprise is! After waiting around for over an hour today I was told, I was put on fraud alert and couldn't rent a car. After being given a number of different phone numbers and contacts, I finally reached someone in their fraud dept. in Orange County. After another hour. This lady then tells me that she can give me no information except that I had stolen a car over a month ago. After several hours later and phone calls to the police, she emails me a grand theft auto report of a car I never rented from a person who had stolen my id. I said how could a person steal a car without a credit card?

    My car had been broken into two months earlier and all of my IDs and credit cards had been stolen. I immediately cut them all up. How could a thief who, stole my wallet walk into an Enterprise 10 days later and rent a brand new jeep without any credit cards!?? This thief rented a brand new car with my ID and no credit card or any other form of identification or banking information. She had no phone number or correct address or email. Then they tell me they mailed me a letter! I never got any letter because they didn't even have my address. And on top of that, they didn't even call the police when I was in their office trying to rent another car!

    They let me walk out. If they actually had their clients give multiple IDs and a working credit card, this hell that I am trying to straighten out, never would have happened! And I laugh at their email telling me they will no longer rent to me. I had also rented from them twice in the last year. Don't you think they would have my correct information in their system. ENTERPRISE, DON'T RENT CARS WITHOUT A WORKING CREDIT CARD! Check that these people renting from you have a valid cell and email! Check and see if people are in your data system.

    I recently traveled into Wilson NC by train where I had reservations with Enterprise to pick up a car rental. I discovered that the Enterprise that I had reservations with closed early on Saturdays. My fiancé called the corporate office and asked for suggestions. They informed him for me to go to the Greenville Airport that they definitely had the inventory for the day.

    Upon arriving the service desk, I informed the rental agent of my situation. She point blank looked me in the face and told me she could not help me. I told her that I didn't know what to do. I had 2 more hours to travel to get to my brother's wedding the following day. After basically begging her to help me... No apologies at all... She told me that she had 3 cars in the parking lot, 2 of the cars had flat tires, and the 3rd car had the check engine light on. I asked for a manager and she informed me that she was the manager.

    How can a company like Enterprise have the product in the parking lot, but the product is not drivable? Somebody is failing at their job. I had to have my cousin drive 2 hours after already driving for 9 hours to come pick me up so I could make the wedding the next day. UNBELIEVABLE! The worst part was... My fiancé called to complain the next day... The corporate office told him that they could do nothing for us because I was escorted out by a sheriff.

    Absolute lie! There was a security guard there whom actually helped me more than Ariel. He referred me to a semi local restaurant that I could sit at to wait for my cousin to come get me. If there was a sheriff and I was causing a problem... Don't you think that he would have acted upon the situation? In closing, my fiancé asked them to pull the camera footage and they declined. I don't know what else to say other than it was the worst customer service I have ever encountered in my life. I also made sure that the 100 family and friends that attended the wedding knew about my experience with Enterprise.

I did not drive thru any hail storms and I went online and the only location that had a hail storm was in NC 6 days prior to my rental.

I am a loyal customer of your business for many years-and this was the worst customer-service I ever had in a long time! We made a reservation 2 months in advance in order to get the car we wanted - full size... but after 3 miles driving we noticed a weird noise coming from the brakes. Concerning with our safety we immediately called Enterprise and made a request for an exchange, But since we were already in our way to South Carolina they said to us to do the exchange at any other location or as soon as we arrive there!! What happen was that every location we tried to stop after hours (including 2 major Enterprises at 2 different airports) were giving us the same BS excuse: "We don't have ANY full size available." How come 2 major locations from the biggest rental car in United states do not have a full size available?

    Let me answer it: they did have lots of full sizes available as we noticed at the parking lot and at the Enterprise balcony when other customers were asking for full sizes. They just didn't want to get stuck with a Maryland license plate car (with brake problems) in their parking lot. They don't care about customer, they don't care about safety, they don't care about your money!!! And when we ask for a refund they said that we will have to pay a $500 fee for dropping it in a different location... They were making us pay for something that was not our fault. We lost a entire day of our vacation trying to fix this problem!! We ended up having to drive the same car with a very very bad brakes back to Maryland!! Being a loyal customer from Enterprise for almost 4 years renting at-least 12 times a year make me very disappointed to know that they really don't care about your safety, but only about their money.

    I have been renting with Enterprise for the last 7 years. I have never had an issue up until now. Actually there has been an issue the last THREE times I have rented. I rented a vehicle at the La Mesa, CA location and specifically told the representative who assisted me that I only wanted the Damage Waiver for the vehicle I was renting. As I was initialing the agreement, I saw that RAP and PAI were on the agreement. BEFORE I moved forward with the agreement, I asked the rep why does it show I am requesting RAP and PAI when I ONLY asked for DW. She stated that there were three parts to the DW and Roadside Assistance and the other Insurance was included. This in fact was NOT true and I was charged $34.68 for coverage that I made perfectly clear that I DID NOT want, but your representative felt the need to charge me for anyway.

    I went to a different location as I was disappointed that the rep at the previous branch intentionally provided false information, which was of benefit to her. I told the rep at the new branch that I only wanted DW, and he stated "just protection for the car right?" I replied yes, just the Damage Waiver, so he was well aware that I only the DW and no other coverage, I return the vehicle to a different branch and what do you know, I have been charged $26.01 for coverage I stated more than once that I DID NOT WANT.

    Even AFTER, the previous experiences, I attempted to give your company the benefit of the doubt. I rented from location I returned the last rental. I picked the vehicle up at 5:30 PM on Friday and had planned on returning it Monday 5:30 PM. As I prepared to sign off on the agreement, I saw that my estimated total went from $53.64 to over $131! I told the representative that I only wanted DW. He stated that he would correct the issue and send email me the agreement. Saturday morning. When I DID NOT receive the agreement, Approximately, 7:30 AM PST, I called the toll free number and asked a rep to go over my agreement with me. She stated that DW coverage was on the agreement as well as all the other coverage.

    I decided that I would not continue to do business with a dishonest company and instead of keeping the vehicle until Monday as I had planned, I returned the vehicle Saturday morning. The branch I returned the vehicle refunded the additional charges. This was a real inconvenience. I rented the car because I had plans for my children, they were ruined because of this. I used my rewards points for the rental and only was able to utilize it for a few hours and those points were NOT reimbursed. I am quite aware that there are goals that have to be met for each branch, however, I do not appreciate being apart of these shady tactics to meet those goals.

According to the employee, they had called me 4 times the day to pick up the van, when I clearly showed them I had not received a call and let them know I had spoken with a different employee the day before.

    When I was trying to show them that I had received no calls, he rudely interrupted me and said that it is not his duty to look at my phone and even looked away. The manager was VERY RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL OF A MISTAKE HE ALLOWED. OFFERED NO SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM. He claimed I walked in at 6 pm when they had already locked the doors. I heard them tell the other customer, whose name I will not release because he is a frequent customer at my place of employment, that because he is frequent customer of said location that he could come in without a reservation for said van I had reserved. This is completely unacceptable and very inconvenient. The whole point of the reservation would be to actually reserve a van in advance. I guess I have to frequent this location more often to actually have a van at my disposable. Shame on you Enterprise, your employees are terrible and this whole company is a scam.

The vehicle's low gas light was on and the agent told me that I could bring it back empty without penalty and offered me a day free. The agent informed us that this was the only vehicle they had and that we could go to any Enterprise and turn in for another premium vehicle.

    After leaving this Enterprise location and proceeded to get on the highway I noticed that when I had to put on the brakes at high speed the vehicle shook horribly. I went to 3 yes that is right 3 different Enterprise locations and none of them could replace the vehicle. All 3 said they had no vehicles to give out. I then called the customer service line who took my complaint and told me to call the roadside assistant number. When I called them they told me what I already knew that there was no Enterprise close to me that had an available vehicle for replacement and not just my type of vehicle but no class!

When I called to resolve this issue (as I have rent to pay tomorrow and they've drained my account without confirming with me), they put me on hold, told me they would call me back later when they've taken care of customers, and then never called me back. I am beyond frustrated and the communication skills in this company are seriously lacking. Not to mention, as I have seen in other reviews, I said no to an optional damage cover, however they charged me anyway without me knowing, had me sign on a tablet that did not display the full receipt, and then would not cancel/revoke the optional insurance despite my continual complaints and pleas to do so after I realized what they had done.

That's the second location, I called. I will never do business with Enterprise again. It's sad that have monopolized the rental car industry and we only have a select few to choose from.

    I went to Enterprise about 2 months in advance to rent a van. At the time they had a high top van. I secured the van. About a month out, I called to check on my rental and was told they no longer carried it. No notice. I then changed to a Transit 350 van. I expressed it was very important that I have the Transit rather than cargo because of the number of riders. I called back about 2 or 3 days out to make sure everything was in order as far as van and cost. Was told all was well. When I went to pick up the van, I got a cargo van.

    I don't understand why a person cannot get what they order when they have gone to this length. There was a van like I ordered in the parking lot and I asked why I could not get that one. I was told that the person renting that van had come by at a earlier time, rented it and would be back to pick up. To me this is not business. Why was I not told that it would have been in my best interest to do this since I had made several calls to make sure I got what I wanted. How can one person rent in advance and another cannot. I felt like my money was as good as the other person. I don't get it that you cannot get what you want when you order from Enterprise but can anywhere else.

    On the same occasion my niece reserved a 7 passenger van. Went in to pick up with confirmation number and was told they did not have one. She was leaving for vacation the same day and had to scramble to make other plans. All of this is simply not acceptable. If I call you 3 or 4 times, then I want what I want and that is the bottom line. Will not be using again. I no longer have the order numbers but the rental was on 7/20/2017 and on 7/21/2017. Both at Rock Hill (Cherry Road) location going to Atlanta, GA. Might be able to check bank and get order no. if necessary.

    My girlfriend & I were in an accident. She was driving her car. The accident wasn't her fault. Her insurance company made the mistake of hiring Enterprise in Greensboro, NC (5902-A West Market). My girlfriend fractured her jaw in the accident so I went with her to assist in the rental process. We had not been informed of a deposit and wanted to see if the rental deposit could be pick up by her insurance. We spoke a private conversation that was unfortunately overheard by the general manager Joey **. When she leaves to make the call, Joey ** informs me that he will need to speak ONLY to her!!! He questions who I am and why I am there when he knows we are together.

    Neither question deserves a response but I inform him who I am and that she has a fractured jaw. He REITERATES that she must speak for herself and I must remain quiet!!! WTF!!! I harshly inform him that he is an idiot as I am truly offended by his unprofessional and discourteous behavior. His solution is to return JUST ME to the repair shop where we dropped her car off. I informed him that he wasn't going to TAKE ME anywhere but he was welcome to try! I'm NEVER using them again. No one in our 2 families will ever use Enterprise. Thank you Joey ** for removing Enterprise from our car renting process.

    Contacted Enterprise in Phoenixville, PA to inquire about renting a full size car for a vacation road trip. This would be a Cadillac XTS or "similar" vehicle. Per the gentleman at Enterprise similar would be a Chrysler 300 or a Mercedes model. Went online, booked through Costco a full size vehicle for the trip. Received confirmation paperwork, with stated car type (Cadillac XTS or similar) and pricing. When we arrived to pick up the vehicle we were given an Infiniti QX 70. When we told them we had requested a full size car, we were told "This is a luxury vehicle."

    Unfortunately we were not in a position to shop around as we were leaving in a couple hrs. The car was not comfortable in the back seat, very little leg room. To me this is false advertising. If I wanted an 114 intermediate SUV, I would have reserved that. Also we asked what grade of fuel was required, we're told regular only to find out the first time we stopped for gas that it took premium. The website needs to changed to state the truth, and the employees need to know what to tell the customer. My next step will be to notify Costco.

    We booked a large SUV rental to transport my family from Charlotte NC to Peabody MA and back. Two thirds of the way to our destination I started noticing a loud banging and jolt when the Tahoe was shifting from first to second gear. With my knowledge of cars, I knew right away this vehicle was having transmission problems.

    We did reach our destination and I decided to contact roadside assistance the next morning. This is when the experience fell apart. I talked to a representative named Chaundra. I could not believe how unprofessional this woman sounded. I'm not sure, but I would guess that I just woke her up. I explained the situation and how we were on vacation and I didn't feel safe driving the vehicle that imminent failure was bound to happen. She checked the system to see if their was an exact replacement to my rental. Being that it was Sunday and most independent agencies were closed. She told me I could take it to Boston Logan car rental and see what they could do. I responded, that I wasn't going to drive an unsafe vehicle anywhere. They would need to bring the vehicle to me.

    She said they could pick up the current vehicle, but we wouldn't have a replacement til after Monday. I told her the zip code where I was staying. She told me that the Danvers MA Enterprise was showing having a Tahoe on the lot. She couldn't confirm and told me to call them at 9am when they opened. Wow!!! Solve my own problem. I told her I was about a mile from that location and would call them and return the failing Tahoe there. I called at 9 and spoke to Joe telling him my predicament, he got another guy named John. John listened to my story and apologized for what I had gone through with roadside assistance saying they hear complaints all the time about roadside.

    He went on to tell me the only vehicle he currently had was a Ford F250 worktruck. I could use the vehicle until he rectified the situation. He was really sympathetic about our situation and was going to work on it first thing Monday morning that he would contact me early in the day to let me know how to proceed. It's now Monday around 1pm. Since I haven't heard from John I decided to call the Danvers Enterprise. I can't remember who I talked to, but asked if John was in and the guy went on to tell me that John decided to take the day off to go to a golf tournament. What!!! John had told me he would get a premium large SUV replacement, not to worry.

    This guy goes on to ask me my name, not pulling any record up. I explain what has been going on. He finally pulls up the information using the numbers off the tag on the keys. He sees the exchanged rental Tahoe to F250. Makes no sense to me. I completely feel Enterprise doesn't care about me at this point. He tells me the only vehicle he has is a seven passenger minivan that could accommodate my needs. I told him that I rented a Tahoe and that is what I want. He goes on to tell me that John tends to over promise and their policy is no guarantee on rental class when replacing a vehicle.

    He continued to check his system to see if anyone in the area had a replacement. Nobody was showing availability. He continued to tell me that they could not travel hours to pick up a vehicle. He went on to tell me they were doing me a favor by taking a damaged car in exchange for a good car. I was completely dumbfounded at this point. I told him that I was in high end sales and I do whatever it takes to make my clients happy. Customer satisfaction is my number one goal. He told me that I might want to contact my agency that I rented the car from to see if they could handle this situation.

    I contacted my agency and have been dealing with Cliff at this point. Cliff is not familiar with the Boston area. I asked Cliff if I could return the F250 to the Logan airport location and he informed me that they would only accept a malfunctioning vehicle as the F250 is working fine. I am now going into my third day of vacation having to cancel my family plans because the vehicle does not meet our needs. I don't know when I will have the car requested in my reservation. I can't believe how poorly I've been treated by Enterprise. The company who raves about its customer service in its commercials and ads.

    When I was asked, "you need optional protection plan?" I told them I do not need optional protection plan. Few days later, realized why is the grand total so high. So I called and got the breakdown of the total. I was told I have optional coverage plan. It was like some ridiculous amount like $59 a day. Talk to manager and district manager, they are saying, "you signed on it." This is such a ** they are making us pay that. Before I return the car, we were going to extend the rental and had to cancel it because it was almost $800 for 7 days to rent a midsize car. The district manager Eddie says it was initial on the tablet by me, and I remember initialing but I said no for that plan so I assumed that charge will not do on it so without looking in more detail I signed.

    So now they are stuck with that 'you signed for it and we gave you that plan.' I told them the minute I found out the breakdown of the charges I disputed, but no one is able to help me remove that charge. I told district manager I want to go above him to resolve this issue. He says, "it will come back to me and I have made up my mind" and I have to pay for optional protection coverage plan. I really wish if there is anyone out there who can help me take this charge off or put in the right direction where can I dispute this.

    It was supposed to be a holiday of a lifetime. I called the toll free number to talk to an Enterprise car rental representative. We were leaving Vancouver, B.C. on July 28/17 and arriving in Sydney Nova Scotia on July 29/17. We were taking a taxi to downtown Sydney, Nova Scotia and overnight at a motel. Following day, we taxi to the Sydney ferry terminal and arrive at 3:00 pm. We booked a cabin suite and the ferry ride from North Sydney to Argentia could be any where from 12-16 hours. We wanted to take this ferry because of live band, dancing, entertainment etc. Once arriving in Argentia, we got a hold of a transportation company that would pick us up at the Ferry terminal and transport us to Saint John Newfoundland airport to pick up our car from Enterprise. All of this was explained to Enterprise over the phone. We rented the car from July 31-Aug 10.

    Enterprise sent confirmation to my email. In Newfoundland they have celebrations during first two weeks of August. It is our understanding that this happens each/every year. A few days ago, I decided to confirm all bookings, flights, motel, taxi transport, car rental, ferry. All checked out until I checked our car rental with Enterprise. The representative I talked to said the booking of the car was for Saint John Newbrunswick. I made no reference to Saint John Newbrunswick. I checked my confirmation email and lo and behold it stated Saint John Newbrunswick. Should A, Could A, Would A - Enterprise totally screwed up what I explained to them on the phone. Either their listening skills are totally in left field. Obviously, they do not know where Argentia is. For that matter, they don't know that YES there is Saint John Newfoundland.

    Granted, I should have ensured from my confirmation email that after Saint John came Newfoundland not New Brunswick. I phoned every car rental place in Newfoundland with no success. Lo and behold they are all sold out. I phoned the motorcycle H/D dealer to see if they rent motorcycles and lo and behold they do not rent them daily or weekly. Anywhere else in Canada, they do. Go figure.. So I had to cancel vacation, all motels, flight, ferry, transportation company, etc. Thank you Enterprise Car Rentals. I will never, ever, deal with you clowns ever again. All I got from Enterprise is, "we apologize sir and we are sorry." Sorry doesn't cut it. Man Up!!

    I guess this is not so much a complaint but a suggestion for Enterprise Rent a Car. I understand that you need a credit card for a rental and if you don't have one you need to see two utility bills that have no past dues in their history. I guess this is part of your policy. What I learned is that you cannot have ANY past due bills that people can see otherwise you will be denied. So I did not realize that I had not paid a bill and paid it right there and then but I would not get a rental. I was most disappointed because both of our cars are from Enterprise Sales, so we are loyal Enterprise customers who have fallen on hard times.

    Maybe you should offer a free weekend rental with purchase. We have two vehicles from you. Something to think about offering to customers. The Enterprise sales experience has always been great, but the rental is something different. A few months ago we rented from Enterprise because our car was not ready and the car that I rented from the Madison airport was very dirty. It was the first time I had experienced that with any car. I feel that manager should have given me a chance because we were loyal Enterprise after buying two cars. Better to continue with the relationship than now, I am sore with what happened.

So I waited thirty minutes in the hectic office. 45 minutes later I saw a Dodge Journey pulled up into the parking lot. And the rep asked me and said, "You could take the journey instead at no extra charge." Mind you that this is a standard suv, so I was like, "Sure. I'm not gonna keep waiting for the Rouge that you supposedly had."

    Granted, I have rented from Enterprise before and really never had any issues other than not having a vehicle when I needed one. The local office where I am located is always friendly and helpful. I scheduled a trip to Vegas and wanted a vehicle to drive around for the day and take back to the airport the next. Called them up and confirmed. The hotel where I was at did not have Enterprise only Avis. The lady said I would have to get a bus or walk to the SLS which was about 1.5 miles away. She said there was no option to be picked up. First I have ever heard of this with Enterprise. I was under the impression of, "We will pick up you!" Apparently not in Vegas, at least where I was.

    Anyway, I walked and got there around 1:30 pm. The lady was friendly and got me a car. The total would be 73.98 and a 300 dollar hold on my CC. Next day got to the airport and charged 156.00 for all kinds of fees. Basically, I was about 3 hours past the time to come in. This was my fault not knowing Vegas and the roads well enough, I guess. The guy who checked me in took about 30 minutes to do so since he had several others to do. He checked me in. Was more concerned with the roof of the jeep. We did not use the roof only put luggage in the open back hatch... Duh... He later gave me my receipt of drop off and when I questioned the charge, he said it was only suggested charge.

    Ok, got home from flight called Enterprise and whammo. The charge is for extra day, plus 20% drop off fee taxes, you name it. I told her I rent from enterprise all the time and never had to pay this extra amount. The 3 hour missed time equates to another 24 hrs and it's corporate policy. Well not where I live folks. They do not do this. Maybe, I am lucky since my local office or surrounding areas do not do this? Maybe, only Vegas? Oh, it's corporate because she said she has worked for 15 years for Enterprise and it's how it's always been. She only directed me to the Las Vegas local office when I suggested I would not be dealing with Enterprise again, or at least in Vegas. Very rude customer service and she has been with them 15 yrs!

    The reason I am sending the message is because I was told on the phone at reservation that the 73.98 is all I would be paying folks. This was tax included! I told them I would be dropping the car off at the airport as well. They stated no extra charges! Well drop it off 3hrs late and boom! If you take the 30 minutes the guy took to finally get to me, well I was under 3hrs. Does not matter I guess, or at least in Vegas. My local branch where I live operates a little different Corporate Enterprise. They know the meaning of customer service and satisfaction. This is what keeps repeat customers coming back, not your lies (bait and switch) tactics.

    Again, I should not be charged a full day for less than 3hours late, plus all the extra charges added to the next day rental, when I am promised one charge only. There is nothing on the contract I signed stating extra charge for 3 hrs late, nor was I told on the phone at reservation or in person by the lady who gave me a vehicle.

    Went through 3 cars in a 24 hour period! Rented a car from a branch in NJ for a 2 week trip to Orlando with my family. Around noon on the first day of driving down to Florida, we started experiencing car issues. At a stop light, completely still, the car was redlining and the warning lights on the dashboard went on. When the light turned green and we started to move the car started bucking very badly. We were able to pull into a Crackle Barrel parking lot where I called roadside assistance number and got a tow truck to pick up the car. From there the tow truck took me to Roanoke Airport in Virgina to pick up another car. (The Tow man was great and extremely helpful and went beyond his call of duty and helped me out during this time.) However, my experience with Enterprise began to decline beyond the mechanical problems of the first car.

    The gentleman at Roanoke said he was upgrading my car but there were some stains in the car. At this time I was 3 hours behind schedule and my family was left at a Crackle Barrel so I just wanted to get going. I thought what are minor stains anyway? When I got into the car it looked like an entire case of soda blew up inside. It was absolutely terrible looking. How and why this car is even allowed to be rented is unbelievable in of itself! I took it anyway because I did not want to wait in another line at the airport and I just wanted to get my family. I figured I will let the branch aware of my dissatisfaction of this car being an "upgrade" when my trip was over.

    At about 8pm that night, that car's warning lights came on. Completely uncomfortable about driving another 600 miles and having the car for 2 weeks before driving over a thousand miles back to NJ, I called the assistance line again and said that I would have to wait until morning since I was not close to a branch that was open at that time. So I was forced to get a hotel in South Carolina. Next morning I bring the car to a branch where the gentleman tried very hard to get me back in that car by saying it probably just needs an oil change. After refusing to take the car for another 2 weeks he gave me a new car. Before he could do that I had to prove that the stains in the car I was exchanging were not of my doing, that's how bad they were.

    So I had to go back to my hotel and get the contract, that had interior stains written by the Roanoke guy. Finally, about to get the car, the gentleman gives me the car with 1/2 a tank of gas. Especially after returning both messed up cars with FULL TANKS. On July 10th I put in a complaint with corporate which in turn told me that a district manager will reach out to me shortly. It has been 8 days and I have yet to hear anything. Absolutely unacceptable! This situation could have been easily resolved. Never using them again, and they are 10 minutes from my house. The others are 30 minutes. I WILL be driving the extra distance to get my rental cars from another company for the rest of my life.

    I was placed on Enterprise's DNR list because I had words with a manager at a local branch even though she was sarcastic to me. I DID NOT in anyway threaten her physically or verbally. In fact there were two other employees in the location as well as a mother with her child, and another man there renting. The employee that was renting to the man proceeded out the door to continue helping him and the other male employee sat back behind the screens in his seat. At no time did either of them see the need to get involved because I was not threatening her at all. Under no circumstances did I threaten her or did she appear to feel as if she was threatened because she proceeded with her same belligerent attitude that she had over the phone. Yes her voice was raised and so was mine. We had words. I wanted her to understand that she "Don't treat your customers bad." We both agreed we had a long day. We in fact went over the bill that was in question.

    I asked her for her regional manager's information. She gave it to me and I left. I HAVE NOT STEPPED FOOT BACK AT THAT LOCATION SINCE THAT DAY, NOR HAVE I CALLED BACK UP THERE. I came home that same day and I phoned customer care about what happened and they took my statement and told me that someone would follow up with me within 24hrs. Well no one ever called me. Fast forward to today and I reserved a car for my husband and I was told to call a number to complete the reservation. It didn't give them the reason why. So I called the number and they informed me that I had been placed on the DNR list because I was physically threatening to the employee.

    So I am trying to understand how as a company Enterprise allows its customers to get walked upon and lied on but no reprimand was given to her as a manager but she was able to call in and lie so that she can keep her job and I get placed on the DNR list because of her actions. Also my husband was not even involved nor was he aware of the situation so why was he blacklisted and punished due to the actions of another. This whole ordeal has been disappointing and embarrassing to say the least. He should not be punished for this. As well as I should not because they took her lie into account and not what really happened.

Still waiting for the $200 extra they charged my card to be returned... District manager refused to return my call and said basically oh well too bad... DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY.

    My dealer Auto Bugatti which is a large client of Enterprise Rent A Car organized a rental vehicle for me under my name; it was delivered to my dealer. When I went to drop off my car at the dealer I walked around the Rental Car from Enterprise and noticed (a) the car had Ontario plates, (b) there were many bumps, scratches, and you could see the car was accidented on the side, the front driver's side fender is loose and sticks out from the body of the car. I drove over to the location where it came from which is 550 Michel Jasmin in Dorval QC H9P 1C4 however they were closed, it was 6 h 15 pm. I then went to the Dorval airport location and showed them the car and asked if they could please give me another car, however they refused to even speak to me since I did not rent the car from their location... They said they have nothing to do with this rental and I need to go to the location the rental came from!

    This is a defective car and it is disrespective to even rent it out to a client in this condition... The rental on Michel Jasmin only opens at 8 am and I have a 7 h 15 appointment out of the area; obviously I need to drive there, that is the reason why I rented the car in the first place since my car which is a Mercedes was in for Service. Now I have this car which I don't feel safe in and can't even understand WHY this car would be on the road in this condition and rented to a client. What kind of customer service is this? I called roadside service just to be able to speak to a live person, and they told me since the car was not broken down on the road there is no reason to come for road side service, they gave me another number which connected me to someone in Georgia...??? I called back and had to go thru the story over and over again, while I was sitting at the airport which was the only Enterprise office open in all of Montreal...

    Are these cars not checked, fixed, serviced & cleaned before they are given to a customer? Are the people in the various office Pick-Up locations NOT TRAINED properly NOT to give out cars UNLESS they are in PERFECT condition? Are these Enterprise locations owned privately and therefore another location cannot change a defective car? It seems very strange to me, since I could rent a car in Montreal and would be able to drop it off at Enterprise in Toronto or Ottawa or wherever, obviously the car they gave me has Ontario licence plates... However since the car is defective, NO ONE COULD HELP ME OR GIVE ME A PROPER CAR IN GOOD CONDITION TO DRIVE! Enterprise should be closed down for the type of vehicles they are delivering to clients... The service is totally disgusting and disrespectful customer service.

    After my recent experiences with 2 other rental car companies (Avis and Budget), I truly Appreciate Enterprise. The Manager at Enterprise in Crete, Illinois especially needs recognition for customer service, and professionalism. He even pulled a truck out of his hat when there was none to be found. Then Enterprise as a WHOLE, and setting up the website to see ALL of your rentals and get your own receipt. KUDOS! My latest one in Boise, Idaho, I prepaid my fuel. I didn't come off full. She wrote on her card to get my next tank of fuel on them. Now let's see another company do that.

    Rented a car in Boston for a 2 week trip around New England. 2 days before I head home I hit a curb in Maine and popped a tire. The local office was very easy and had us in a new car and on our way with no fuss and "No problem, don't worry, happens all the time." Then 2 weeks later I receive a "Damage Recovery" letter at home - which is fair I guess... so I immediately initiate a claim with my card co. benefits - it's been 7 weeks and not a single WORD from Enterprise requesting documents on supposed damages. No help, no answers, no responses to repeated emails. 7 weeks and they still haven't been able to tell me how much a TIRE costs?

    I had a vacation to Florida and I was happy to get a car rental. I told them I had car insurance and paid for the insurance for their car. The problem was I got into two accidents... one was a hit and run in Port Charlotte on the bumper... I was waiting for the light to turn green. I tried to take down the number but they ran off on me. Second one was I was on my way to drop the Enterprise car to get back to California... I fainted when I was on my way on 192 off the main road. I woke up and the whole front was damaged... and the pole was knocked off. I didn't know what happened... and the second airbag didn't deploy till after I woke up... left my hand burned because it ripped my skin. I told the EMT that I was deaf. They didn't care much about who I was.

    The police wrote everything out to communicate... and the tow company didn't care where to drop the car off. I told them at the Municipal airport... they dropped the car off somewhere else. I tried to contact the Enterprise to tell them where the car was... they were all paranoid. Now I am getting charged for both accidents that had happened to me... 10002.00 for the accident. I refuse to pay it and I am suing them back for every damn discrimination they did towards me! Enterprise has no right to ruin my reputation... means they will be eaten up alive by people whom had been burned! So means unfair rights for me versus a big corporation looking for ways to eat other people alive! If they try to get on my credit report... I will have a lawyer on their asses and make them pay!!!!

    I rented a car on June 22nd, and returned it June 23rd, two hours early. Enterprise put a 250.00 hold on my debit card and upon return of the car it's released and the remaining balance after rental charge is paid, the balance of the return credit back to my card would be the next day. Mine was 191.17. My rental charge was 58.83. The 191.17 was never received, and my bank confirmed that. So I am stuck in the middle between the merchant who is Enterprise, and my bank who doesn't show no deposit of such amount. I am furious, and have taken the necessary steps in the chain of command through enterprise.com and enterprisecares.com in requesting help, which to date has been of no help to me. I would think twice before renting from Enterprise. They have admitted to me via their area sales manager that they know of this problem, and it only happens twice maybe or so a month. That is unacceptable.

She replied yes. Soon as I take it back they lie and tell me they didn't charge me a deposit. That 250 was the charge for 4 days. Mind you never received any paperwork the day I rented the car. Only time I got my paperwork is when I returned the car and asked for it due to me not getting my deposit. They are very unprofessional, I would not recommend them to no one.

    I rented a car at the Raritan, NJ location. I was walked around the car with the girl giving out the cars. I did not see any damages to the door nor windows as to what he said they look for. When I wanted to return the car, I was asked to return to a different location - Hillsborough, NJ. The employee there takes me outside and says, "This car is damaged on the roof of the car." I said, "What?" He said, "Look at the top of the car, there are dents." Needless to say I told him I did not damage the car. He had me signed out on the piece of paper and tells me the person from the Raritan location will call me. I go into Raritan and speak to the Manager, who did not want to really deal with me. I told him there was no way it happened on my rental. He just gave me his card and asked me to call a few days later. Now, I have a 500 dollar charge on my card. I called the manager and he has his assistants pick up the phone, and will not call me back.

    THIS REALLY SUCKS BECAUSE I AM AN HONEST CUSTOMER AND DID NOT DAMAGE THIS! There was no rain or hail, and not even parked in any garage that has a low roof. I hate Enterprise, and I will never rent a car again.

    I phoned enterprise and specifically asked if the rate I was being quoted for unlimited mileage included my taking the car out of state. They told me yes and that unlimited meant unlimited, unless I left the continental US. When I arrived to pick up the car they said I'd be assessed an additional fee depending upon which state I was traveling to even though I was returning the car to the site that I had rented from. When I called Enterprise complaint escalation dept they said the manager of the rental site was incorrect and I should have been given the car at the quoted price.

    I've contacted Enterprise 5 times since and filed a complaint with Enterprise 5 times since May 10th, each time being promised a response from management. I never received one. Each time I called to follow up they generated another complaint. They just don't care at Enterprise, they'll say anything to get you off the phone. There is no way you can speak to the individual that takes your complaint once you hang up the phone. If you try to call back you have to start the process all over. I would never use this company.

When we return the vehicle 2 weeks later, Juan was quick and got us on our way to the hotel. Because traffic was very bad, Enterprise was not able to take us to the hotel.

My debit card was run for the $65.00 when I arrived and I was told it declined. I told the gentleman, who was also the Branch Manager, that there was enough money in my account and to run it again. He did and it went thru. I pulled up my acct. right away only to find that my acct. was debited twice. I got the 2nd debit credited back the next day only to find an additional $38.00 debited the day after that. When I called to inquire about the $38.00 I was told they will continually charge my bank acct. debit card for every day I have a balance "so my acct. stays current". At no time was I ever told they would do this.

    Then I was informed that they always try to reach the customer before they charge their cards however I received no call and found out they had the wrong phone number on file, though I verified my phone number with them no less than 3 times, twice with the Manager and once with an associate. Unfortunately I will have a long term rental of 30 days or so until my hail damaged vehicle is repaired, 30 days of uncertainty regarding their automatic debits from my bank acct. Thank goodness they did not cause an overdraft in my bank acct. the 1st time around. I had been under the impression I would pay any balance due at the time I returned the rental car, I even asked the gentleman about this.

    Another time I rented from this place I dropped the car after hours and they called me next day claiming that there was damage to the car and they were going to file a claim with the insurance. Since I was away from town I did not have the time to go to the business and double check the car. The car was not damaged when I dropped it at the location. Months later I read that Enterprise was being investigated for this particular issue; claiming damage to vehicles to extract money from insurance companies or customers.

How can someone offer a damaged car and charge money for Damage Waiver?

    My experience was terrible. We rented a car for a family vacation to Florida. We had gone through my husband's works company provider who had set everything up (that was the best part of the whole experience). When we got to the desk, because the reservation was under my husband's name we couldn't use my Visa card (joint account) because it didn't have his name on the card. We had other cards but not one to cover the full amount and the cards that we did have that would cover the amount they wouldn't accept because they did have our names on the cards.

    Frustrated at the policy, the only thing we could do was transfer the reservation into my name, but because I was under 25 years old there was a $20/day charge, and because my husband was going to be the primary driver there was also a $15/day charge. We were on our trip for 11 days... The customer rep at the desk sent us down to where the cars are to talk to a manager. We did not get to speak to a manager, but they waived the $15/day charge to be nice. When we finally got our car, an hour later. Did I mention I was traveling with two small children. We had asked for navigation and other car figures to help get us around. Our car didn't come with any of that. So I had to use my phone data for the maps which cost me $100 more.

    Once we left we started to go through the tolls, no one informed us whether or not we needed to go pay or if they were on a cooperate paid card. Overall the experience cost us an extra $800 including the phone bill. But what really made me upset was when we booked with the rep from the company they didn't tell us about the credit card or debit card needing to have a name. I wish they were more flexible with taking other forms of payment. I wish that they had read our reservation so we would of ended up with what we were supposed to get and now I'm waiting for our toll bill to come in the mail, which will cost us more.

I was told at about 5pm that the location had not cars for me to rent, no up or down grade either. John told me that I had to call around to other locations to see if they had cars and then call Enterprise Loyalty in order to still use my points. Issue #1) If it is not my fault that they did not have any vehicles why should I as the customer have to call several different location to find a vehicle, John told me that's what I had to do. Once I called around I finally found that the Oxon Hill MD location did have a car I could pick up at 5:30, when I asked about using my loyalty points I was told I had to speak with Enterprise Loyalty in order to transfer the points to the new reservation so he transferred my call.

    Issue #2) Again why should I have to call someone when this is not my fault. When I spoke to the representative she told me that I had to cancel my reservation in order to have the points used in the new reservation. Issue #3) Later this evening another representative informed me that the first rep only had to change the location and that I should have not been told to cancel. However I cancel and the points did not into my account immediately return to my account so I missed the opportunity to pick up a vehicle at any location near because they all closed at 6pm. I called customer service and was told to call Enterprise Loyalty because he could not transfer. Once I did my call was transferred 2 more times. Issue #4) I was told that someone would contact me from the regional office and they did not.

I am very disappointed with the service and lack thereof that I received from Enterprise. Now I will not be able to make the trip I needed to make on Friday because I have no car.

I been desperate for a car to don't lose my job in this process and they no even offer me Options. Even like that I return to them one week after asking if that was possible to take a less expensive car and they say it was not possible, because my insurance have "no limits" and that was the option they can gave me. So that was confuse for me but ok I don't even had time to call farmers to confirm that version. Thing is I receive a call one week after saying I had to return the car cause my insurance just cover till 1000 dollars and that was one day to be done... oh oh.

    After that I get to the same company in the rush and ask for a less expensive car one in the range of $23 something they offer me... When I get to the place in Euclid avenue that lady told me she was waiting for me and just five minutes before some one took the car she offer me... "So sorry we don't have this here anymore but I will give you another... it will be couple dollar more." At the end I had to accept a $30 a day car to don't back walking to my house. One more time 'cause I don't want to lose my job for a lack of a car I bite my thong and took it. Today after only one week this girl gave me a call totally mad saying I had to return the car cause she had to close the month and I debt 300 dollars...

    She just shout me on the phone screaming is not her problem and she need "her" car back at the end of the day and the 300 dollars... so... is incredible... I'm amazed of the way this company deal with customers after stealing their money. And plus you have to stand the horrible manners of the person that apparently is the manager of the place. They don't even act as employees at the people service... They act as self business owners... and don't even care in a human way for the people that ultimately are the sustent of those "rent" or I have to say robbery? Places.

For the 1st call for the reserved date, one of workers said it's too early and call 15 min. prior to the car pick-up, so she had to call just 20 min ahead to the car pick-up schedule but this time the owner said it's too late. The pick up person didn't show up until the original car pick-up schedule against the request not to be late.

    It's already late for everything. So she complained to the manager (or owner) over the telephone on the way to the store, then the guy instructed the driver to throw her on the street to cancel the promised service. The guy knew that they were not getting paid after being late for the schedule, that's why they decided to throw someone who supposed to driving for a out of state job as a freelancer. What kind of inhumane and insulting service practice it is. After filed a complaint to the HQ, not a single contact has been made so far (since Feb. and May 2017). What a lousy service!!

When I picked it up I was told that as long as I carried insurance and liability my car would be covered. This, apparently, is not true. I had to switch out to another car after a sideswipe incident, then later was hospitalized. I attempted to reach a manager to let them know where the car was several times and received no response. After being released from the hospital about a week and half later, I was mugged and the car (with the paperwork) stolen. This happened when I was coming back from Enterprise in Charlotte to talk to them, since no one would answer the phone.

    Enterprise will not work with your insurance company. Instead they charged me almost $2,000, without my knowledge, or assuring I was informed. I still do not know the full breakdown, and now have two different insurance people calling me since Enterprise will not deal with them.

    To verify that I did have a reservation I have listed the rental agreement. Rental agreement: **. Original rental agreement 9am Thursday 06-22-2017 to 9am Friday 6-23-2017 for $40 and some change. I recently set up a one day reservation in Tennessee at the Antioch location at 230 Crossings Place. We had flew in the evening before for a wedding the following day. It was only to be a one day rental. My partner and I fly standby and our flight was to depart the following morning. Due to being unable to fly out, I contacted the Antioch location to set up an extension for the weekly rate, since we'd planned to drive back up to Tennessee the following week from Florida.

    When I originally called, I spoke with a young man, who I wish I had gotten his name, he quoted me an additional $124 to be added to the $40 that I was already paying for the daily rate, which would total around $164 for the weekly rate before tax. I explained to him that I was looking up prices and the weekly rate would be only $141 if I booked it and returned the current rental. He stated since I had the daily rate already, and then moving it to a weekly rate is the reason why it would be more than what I was seeing online at that moment. We ended the call cordially. Feeling a bit confused still, I decided to call the location back for more clarification. I called back maybe 30 minutes to an hour later (which was after the time frame when the rental agreement was originally due back before I extended it), when I called back just to confirm a few things about what I spoke about with the young man.

    A woman answered the line, and told me that the price would be over $380 for the extension and there were no notes in the account regarding the young man and my conversation. Mind you at this point I literally have no other options and she knew it due to the timing. I said "what?" And told her I would have to call back. Feeling very frustrated and confused. I decided to take a breather before speaking to someone again, I was really trying not to get nasty. So I had to calm down first. I waited a little, then called back. Another lady was on the phone and said it would be $278 to extend. Feeling absolutely defeated, I reluctantly agreed.

    Once we got to Florida, a family emergency made it difficult for us travel back the following week (yesterday 06-28-2017). However when I called and explained this I was informed there would be a $180 drop fee to another location. I was in shock as to the fact I was never informed of this by the 3 people I spoke to about the extension, with them full well knowing I was traveling back to Florida. As I am feeling like I have just been robbed of a good experience, and they literally got me, with no other option but to make the drive regardless of my family emergency. As much as I have loved Enterprise, this one did it in for me. I did not feel like a valued customer. I felt like a punching back to see how much money you could take from me at this point. I had to go ahead and drive to Nashville from Florida Wednesday evening after I got off work. 6-28-17.

    On 6-28-2017 I called and spoke to a representative at the Antioch location and explained the whole situation. And she said she couldn't make any changes because Progressive bills in day periods not 24 hour periods (I used my Perkshare discount with my insurance company Progressive, this is a personal rental. Not an insurance claim). So I was getting charged for one week and 1 day which would make that 8 days practically. And I only had the vehicle for 7 days (which made absolutely no sense, she even sounded confused). She did offer to waive the drop fee for $50 at the Nashville international airport seeing as Tennessee doesn't allow after hours drop off.

    I graciously accepted the help, obviously I had no other choice but to accept. So I moved on, and flew back home. I am very disappointed with the bullying someone into paying more $$$ experience I received. After I got home I called the Antioch location to ask for a receipt to be emailed to me, the girl on the line said, "Hold on one moment", and then said "My manager confirms the amount $278 is the correct amount"... Dumbfounded a bit considering I never asked if it was the right amount, nor did I even explain the chaos I had been through. I simply asked for a copy of my receipt... All this to say. I will not be setting up further reservations with this location, and I recommend that Enterprise as a company speak with your employees regarding the bullying tactics to get more money out of a desperate situation, where they know we may have no other options available.

    It is bad business! Not to mention if I get told one more time that I am required to have your optional car insurance, I will seek another rental company to do business with. I will also be sure to broadcast it, so no one else has this type of horrible experience of bullying!!! Thank you for reading, I hope this long story helps whoever reads it, to stay away from Enterprise in Antioch Tennessee.

    I planned my rental a day before I needed a car by visiting your outlet on Greenbay Road in Evanston. The person I spoke to was courteous and took my information telling me I would be given a Nissan mid-size car. I was told to ask for Zach. When I returned the next day I asked for Zach and was told he was not available. I then was given a Hyundai Sonata. The interior of the car - seats and floor were filthy. In my business life and personal life whenever I required a rental I went to Enterprise. This experience so upset my wife and me, I will no longer be an Enterprise customer. Shame on you.

    I was rear ended and made an appt to have repairs. Enterprise was contacted by the body shop on a Friday and informed I would bringing my car in on a Wed. At 7:30 a.m. Enterprise (St Cloud MN) called me on Tues. to confirm the date I needed the car, knowing the insurance company to be contacted. On Tues, I called and spoke to Ralph at Enterprise who claimed they sent the information to the insurance company. I called the insurance company late on Tues and learned Enterprise had not made a reservation. Fortunately the insurance company made the reservation in less than 30 seconds.

    I called Ralph who could not tell me why they had not checked back with the insurance company and told me he did not have to listen to me "lecturing him" and hung up on me. He did acknowledge that they just received the reservation which I got made by calling the insurance company. Ralph was rude, did not apologize for their mistake and wanted me to put $200 down when in fact it is just $50. I would advise no one to use Enterprise.

    We rented a Dodge Durango SUV on June 14th from Enterprise Rental in Marietta, GA. It was a 4-day rental. On Saturday, June 17th while driving on the highway the tire sensor showed the air pressure decreasing in the back right tire. We pulled over to check the tire and put air into the tire. In our observation we noticed that there was a plug in the tire and we put air into the tire hoping it would allow us to make it home safely and without getting a flat. We continued on our drive and after approximately 4-5 minutes of driving, the tire sensor came on again and showed the tire pressure rapidly decreasing and then we heard and felt the plug being released from the tire. We had to pull over on the highway and begin the process of changing the flat tire. This was a very tedious and time-consuming task as cars and semi trucks sped by.

    Once we got the tire off of the car it was very visible where the plug had come out from the tire and we noticed also that there was an additional plug in a different area on the same tire. So, it became very clear to us that Enterprise had rented us a vehicle with a damaged tire with 2 plugged holes. We put the spare tire on with the assistance of an amazing stranger named John. We returned the car to the Enterprise location on Sunday, June 18th with the damaged tire in the back of the SUV. We were unable to leave the key because the drop box was jammed. So, I left the car there and took the key to bring back when they would be open on Monday morning, June 19th.

    When I arrived on Monday morning, I spoke with the young lady Kamia and explained why I still had the key. She explained that someone had put paper in the drop box which caused the jam. I asked her if they saw the damaged tire in the back of the SUV, her response was a blank stare. I told her to please have the manager call me because I needed to speak with her about the rental that they had provided us with a damaged tire. She said she would relay the message. My wife called me around 1:00 pm and asked if had spoken to anyone at Enterprise. I told her that no one had called.

    She and my niece went to the Enterprise location and spoke to the same lady Kamia. She said the manager was in a meeting. Kamia explained that since our rental was at a family discounted rate, the best she could do was give us a free upgrade on our next regular rental. She stated this as if she was reading from her training manual. There was no apology for our inconvenience or any concern for what could have happened with the damaged tire that they were aware of was on the vehicle.

    Up until this happened, we were very satisfied with our many rentals from this location and have always felt that they cared about their customers and our safety. But, that is no longer the case. We have pictures of the tire and we're seriously considering legal action. How can you rent someone a faulty vehicle with good conscience and not feel any guilt or remorse when it is brought to your attention. We're yet to hear from the manager but we got the receipt via email that we were charged in full for the rental. It's very disheartening to know that our safety and lives were not taken into consideration with this vehicle. We always check our cars prior to renting for car body damages. It's so hard to believe that they just didn't care.

    I booked a rental a month and a half in advance for a Large SUV, Chevy Tahoe, well all was good. I even called them three times to make sure the rental was available. They assured me all was good. Today is the pick up day 6-26-17 and NO TRUCK, tried to give me a van I SAID NO, then they tried to give me the Elite SUV for the same price. I said, "OK fine", but took my ID and CC info and tried to run it for almost a grand. It was declined, yes I know because I just got back from a vacation but I know there is enough on the card to cover the 600 hold for SUV. He said, "Oh now you want it for 3 days. We are going to run it for more of a threshold." I was fuming, I said and each time I called to speak to you directly you felt it unnecessary to inform me of this even when I spoke directly to the manager two hours before showing up to the Enterprise of Mineola office.

    I rented a car for myself and 3 children for our visit to friends in Ireland. We rented a Golf and got a Polo. Nice little car really but within 30 miles of driving it we had a blowout on the motorway! We called the office who said someone from Galway would attend to us within the next 5 hrs... we were on our way to Kilkenny which is the opposite side of the country. 2 motorway working chaps stopped and helped us put the spare wheel on and we drove the car to Carlow and had the tire changed. This was agreed after my son spoke again with them on the phone. Everything leads to a overinflated tire due to it being run on a flat for a while when you look it up on the internet.

    We never once got asked if we were okay! So when we returned to the airport I was charged 200 for the blowout and new tire... I was 1 of 3 at that moment in time in that office disputing charges. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! I could not stress that enough to anybody. I sent a letter with all the paperwork, photos and details on trying to get my money back and never heard a thing... stupidly I did not make copies. Even the lovely motorway chaps said they see it all the time with Enterprise rentals.

    I rented a car in Kansas to go on vacation. I noticed through the instrument panel that one of the tires had a couple pounds less air in it before we left. They had 40 lbs in one tire, 39 lbs in two tires and 37 lbs in the 4th tire. We drove several hundred miles before staying all night. The next morning when we got up one tire only had 32 lbs in it. We had appointment we had to make so we went there and when we got back to the car a couple of hours later the tire only had 29 lbs in it. I figured we better have it looked at soon so we stopped at a Walmart thinking they could just fix it. When they took the tire off it was rotted and cracked all the way around the tire.

    When I called the only number I had for them (their roadside service) they told me they would have to charge me for using their service. I told them I didn't need them to come out, I was already at Walmart. They set it up for me to pick up a different car the NEXT DAY, I needed something sooner because we were on a schedule. Tough. This was a front tire. We had traveled over 800 miles with it like that. The guys at Walmart put the donut on the back and put on of the good tires on the front for me. So we had to stay in this town waiting for a car the next day. The 2nd car they gave me had a front driving light out (which I guess was not big deal compared to the tire) and maintenance lights kept coming on. I'm convinced that they don't check these cars out before they take your money.

    I rented a car from RDU on June 12, 2017. After driving for about an hour on the highway, I found that the car was hard to steer and veering off to the right. I called the RDU branch in which I picked up the car and asked if I should bring the car back. I was told that I could return the car at another Enterprise location and retrieve another vehicle in its place. I returned the vehicle to MYR since that was my destination. I got a phone call from Enterprise damage control department and said that they have filed a claim against me for the damages to the vehicle. I was shocked. I asked how could they charge me for the vehicle when I turned it in within 3 hours after receiving it because it was hard to drive. I was told that I did not follow the proper channels in having them to damage out the returned vehicle.

    I want to know how am I to know what to do if I return a vehicle that is impossible to drive. I was told that I should have noticed the damage before I took the car off the lot. Really now? So in the future I have to not only inspect the outer body of the vehicle, but I have to play mechanic and look under the hood, have them raise it up in the air so I can climb under to inspect the undercarriage before driving the vehicle. Enterprise shame on you for trying to stick me with the damage of a vehicle that I did not cause. I will fight you all with everything that I can to assure that you are not paid one dime from me. You have lost a customer and I hope that others take note to be cautious if you have to report a vehicle damaged after driving off the lot.

    I tried to hire a large premium i.e. C-Class Mercedes or BMW 5 series for my daughter’s prom costing £75.00 for 24 hrs. I was told when I booked there would be a £100.00 refundable deposit which you would expect. I phoned the local branch to confirm the booking then to be told it was a £500.00 deposit but I still went ahead. They also told me it had to be paid with a credit card which I haven't got, so asked if I could use her credit card. On the day they called me to confirm the booking I asked the question and was told it had to be my credit card only for insurance reasons. So I ended up cancelling the booking, as I had no funds to pay other ways but I was unable to hire the car letting my daughter down who was upset over it. I'm just very disgusted that this is the only means you can pay for these things. Not everybody has a credit. Never renting a car off these Enterprise again.

    On 6/22/17 around 4:30 pm, I walked in the Enterprise Car Rental in Spring Lake, North Carolina to pick up my reserved car that I reserved a week in advance. I have rented from Enterprise several times over the past 8 to 10 years plus I had just rented from the same location just 2 months ago. The lady at the front counter already had an attitude when I walked in. I informed her I was there to pick up a car that I reserved. She took all of my information then she asked me how will I be paying and I told her Visa debit, she then told she would need a utility bill with my name on it.

    If you check your records, you will see I have ALWAYS used my debit card when I rent from Enterprise. I informed her, I don't have a utility bill with my name on it because all my bills are in my husband's name but it has our address on it which I thought would be proof that my husband & I live in the same household. She then went to say, "Well he has to be present and all the information will have to be put in his name". I told her, "He is out of the country on duty serving our country so there is no way he can come to the rental place". I was needing the rental to go to Georgia to see a sick relative. I guess being a "loyal customer" does not matter these days. Enterprise use to be a great and convenient place to be able to rent from. After this experience, I will be looking for a new car rental company. My family and I will never rent from Enterprise again.

    I rented a minivan from Enterprise Rent A Car on 2600 Auburn Blvd. I've had a long-term rental because my car was at the dealer with a recall that they didn't have parts for. I've had this rental for almost a year. I had to return one of the rentals because they sold it and when I returned it they said, "Do not worry about vacuuming it because we are going to anyways."

    So I returned it and they gave me another rental. My car is finally done at the dealership so I returned the rental today. I did not vacuum it because I was told last time I returned it to not vacuum it. They tried to charge me a detail for you to vacuum the car because of human hair in it. So I took it over to Quick Quack and vacuumed it myself. It took a whole 10 minutes. Bottom line is if you are going to tell me not to vacuum it and then turn around and try to charge me to vacuum it that is not very good customer service in my book. Then again I guess if you rent from enterprise you better wear hairnets while you're driving their vehicles. The man was very rude to top it all off.

    I called Enterprise Rent A Car and set up to rent a car from June 8 thru June 13 and they gave me a rate of $164.00 a week for a midsize car. I was also charged $150.00 security deposit due to the fact that I used my debit card to do the rental. The security deposit would be returned back to me once I returned the car back... When I returned the car back on June 13 I was asked if I wanted my security deposit returned back on the same card or on another card, I told them to put it back on the same card. Stating to me within 3-5 days it should be returned. 3-5 days has passed still no security deposit.

    I called Enterprise and they told me, "Oh you will not be receiving security deposit because it went to pay for full coverage and other charges..." That I did not authorize. I am a veteran and I already have full coverage protection with USAA, I did not need them to charge me another full coverage and other charges that they claim my security deposit was used for. Enterprise Rent A Car in Newnan Ga. is a rip-off and I advised anyone who would rent a car. "DO NOT GO TO ENTERPRISE". I have not had my deposit returned to me as of this day, they will tell you one thing and do another when it's all over with.

Then on attempted return on Saturday afternoon, discovered this location closed Saturday at noon and was charged extra fee for returning the car to the airport location.

    I had an outstanding experience renting a vehicle at the Stone Mountain, GA office! On the rainy morning of May 30, 2017, my car broke down on the way to work. I was frustrated, so while my mechanic was on his way, I caught an Uber to work (because I still needed to get to work). At work, I realized I left the materials I needed at home, so my whole trip was useless. Knowing my car would not be ready this day, I planned to rent a car, found the best deal online at Enterprise using my Union discount, and paid online with the intention of them picking me up. But, when I called to confirm the reservation, the office said their power was out, but asked me to call back at 4pm.

    My office locked up at 4pm; the building alarm would be activated. So I took another Uber to Enterprise hoping things would work out. Mr. Aaron **, Management Trainee, was calm, professional, and knowledgeable from the time I walked in. The staff was using tablets to conduct business and the batteries were low, but he remained sincerely positive, patient and during the unusual situation. He didn't realize that my day had been going poorly prior to coming into the rental office. However, his professionalism and attention to detail made the rest of my day so much better.

    What a disappointment! I flew into Cedar Rapids Iowa and made a reservation for a mid-size car at Enterprise. I went to car rental in the airport only to find out Cedar Rapids has more than one location and I had made a Reservation for Dodge Rd. not the airport. Unfortunately the airport could not accommodate me as they had no extra cars. I took a taxi 8 miles and was charged $52.00 which is really high. Anyways, It was my fault so no complaints yet.

    At Enterprise Dodge Road I was told they did not have a car for me yet as not as many people had returned cars that morning. I waited 45 minutes and then was told it wouldn't be much longer because they just sent a couple of their employees to the airport to pick up cars??? I could not believe what I was hearing. I just came from the airport and had to take a taxi (again, my fault for making the reservation at the wrong location) but then to tell me I had to wait because there were cars coming from the airport. Obviously the left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. I ended up waiting over 1 1/2 hours for a car. Then they gave me a car with 40,000 miles and 1/2 tank of gas. I will never rent a car from this company again.
