How does an American company get away with not accepting U.S. currency? Denied service because I have chosen to successfully use only cash for the last 5 yrs. Was told they do not keep any cash on premises to keep from getting robbed. Only to return the following weekend to see a customer hand them over $100 worth of cash. I took my issue to the bank and received their VISA backed credit card. I returned the following week for a rental and they wouldn't accept it as a credit card. When Target, Walmart, restaurants, and gas stations had no problem with it qualifying as a credit card all week long.
Okay, they can accept it but I now need a utility bill in my name. I have none because I am staying with relatives while I look for a place of my own. However they will accept a phone bill. Now I have one of those but because I am between places to live, it goes to my PO Box. They now have THREE forms of identification but won't accept my phone bill because it doesn't match the address on my license. THIS COMPANY IS A BIG WASTE OF TIME and after reading other reviews... Are into some pretty shady practices.

I want to thank Jamario and AJ for making my rental experience awesome! I had my six grandchildren to spend some time with and I had to take my sister to Birmingham for chemo. I had previously made reservations at the Dickerson Street location in Montgomery Al but the young lady said she didn't have anything available. I asked her to call the Eastern Blvd location but she said they probably won't have anything available either. I was so distraught and very disappointed in the customer service that I received from her. So I decided to call the Eastern Blvd location myself. I thank God for those two young men. They made me and my family very happy! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WHAT YOU DID!!!

I had an emergency and needed a rental car rather quickly. I contacted ** the Branch Manager at Enterprise location 6465 Millcreek Drive in Mississauga. There were no vans on this Friday afternoon but he worked hard to find one and get me on my way. The van was in perfect condition but the thing I remember the most is ** willingness and eagerness to help me. He could have just said No and that was the end of it but instead he sincerely wanted to help. I found him and his staff to be professional, understanding, caring, easy to deal with and patient. I would highly recommend Enterprise Rent A Car and specifically their Mississauga location. They went above and beyond.

I have no problem with the service but I have a very big problem with the paperwork. I first had to pay a $200.00 deposit in which it was never put into the paperwork. The second problem was they charged me for 2 weeks on my card then told me that I would only get back $4.00 from my deposit. So now they charged full price for 2 weeks plus they took $196.00 of my deposit so somebody pocketed $197.00 which never showed up on my receipt. Then to top that off when I got my receipt the dates in which I rented the car was 2 days off from when I actually returned the car so now they can rent that car for another 2 days after I returned it. After I returned the car I called and told them about the receipt not having the deposit on it and they told me they would look into it and call me back and I never back from them. Watch out when you rent a car at Enterprise Stadium office Miami Gardens, Fl.

Booked a car and on day of reservation drove an hour one way to pick it up so we could drive to see our daughter in hospital and were told there were no cars available. We were told that there were no cars available in all of north Florida. Called customer service and were told "it's like the guy who got kicked off the plane on the news"?! We were shocked and will never use Enterprise again.

I have rented cars with Enterprise before. I just used my debit and my cellphone bill. Now their policy that you have to have a major credit card or a debit and a utility house line or gas bill. Cannot be a cellphone bill anymore. I only needed a car to drive to take me for a test that would get me more wealth so I could own my own house and my car was not doing good so I decided not to cancel my test for the third time. I had to cancel test before. Like I said before I did rent from there before with just a cellphone bill and my debit. My debit has 3000 dollars on it more than major credit card does. They told me before that all I had have was 400 in there. It does not seem to make any sense.

This not a question as much as it is a complaint for the worst service I have had with Enterprise 12 June 2017. I was at the GEICO auto adjuster and the Enterprise company of North Tenth street came to deliver a car that was dirty and required safety maintenance. The company representative who delivered the car was disrespectful and patronized me, talking to me like was some sort of his minor. I felt offended by his responses to my questions. He was not at all customer friendly and it seemed like he did not want to be there in this situation. Either way this individual was rude.
Not only was he rude he brought a car that required safety issue maintenance such as a headlight bulb cracked out, trash and debris in the engine compartment, dirty on the inside front and back, it had dings and tar spots on the exterior, it smelled like sweat impregnated in the vehicle. After I asked the rep is this is the best they could do he replied blatantly "well if you want to change it you will have to be there between five and six you gonna be there," in a tone of voice you speak to your child with. I was angry about the whole dealing with Enterprise. I did tell him that this is the worst service I have ever received from them.

I just had one of the worst customer service experience ever while renting a car. GEICO rented a car for me while they repaired mine. Mari the Enterprise Rep. was not interested in my opinion. She wanted to get me out of there quick. I had a bad experience on a Dodge car. I told Mari that I did not want a Dodge. She did not care. WOW!!! I was polite and professional but that does not get you anywhere now. Now you have to be as assertive as possible to get anything done.

If I could give this corporation a zero or less I would. They are thieves and con artist and will rob you blind. They will tell you it's a midsize car and give you a small vehicle, charge your account and card unauthorized, while not honoring their Enterprise plus membership. I've seen several people including myself become angry while they came up with any excuse in the book to look for - all nonsense, and illegal. They give kickbacks to insurance companies in order to have ins. companies suggest them. I suggest as an educated consumer do not go to Alamo or National because Enterprise owns that as well. I wish someone had warned me like I am doing for you, or that I was smart enough to come on ConsumerAffairs first.

Unless you have no choice, avoid Enterprise, especially if it's a one-way rental. I should have listened to my friend but what happened to him (in the USA) also happened to us (in the UK). When you pick the car up they do a walk around explaining that only body damage larger than their "bulls-eye" target they show you matters. There were a few minor scratches around the rear hatch area ("No worries, that's normal", I was told). The automatic hatch was sticking but usable, so we opted to just keep the car to save time. Again, "No problem", I was told. But it was not noted on the condition report which I assumed was fine because it was a mechanical issue.
Upon return (to another location from pick-up, which I suspect is part of the problem), I told them about the faulty hatch, and upon inspection they also found a small scratch on the side of the vehicle. Again, I was reassured that neither would be an issue but they "...just had to be noted as it's not our car". But two days later I received an email with a claim demand for vehicle damage from the pick-up location. This was followed up with a damage report itemizing the repairs needed and associated costs (essentially an appraiser report). It included costs for the scratch, rear hatch repair and work on the bumper! This essentially doubled the cost of the rental (though I intend to claim through an insurance policy). I objected but to no avail - this is clearly a business strategy.
If you do not take their (expensive) insurance, these guys are looking for any reason to claim against YOUR insurance. They are using that claim to either bolster their bottom line (my bet is that they just collect and don't actually repair anything), or to fix all the "fair wear and tear" issues you'd expect a rental car to encounter. They may be a little less expensive than the more professional companies like Avis or Hertz, but at least those guys accept that rental cars are never perfect! Next time I'll stick with a name I trust.

Horrible people, rude and disrespectful. Imran (manager) and Tiffany were unhelpful. When I brought up my confirmation they stated they could not rent it. When asked to see confirmation email I did and showed them and was told I was not showing them the full email. ENTERPRISE needs to get their act together. I was traveling with 4 children youngest 4 at close to 1130 pm. They were so unhelpful. I normally do rent from Enterprise but after this experience I will have to think good and hard. They also had us wait in the cold night for a ride since they were in a rush to close. Only one worker... Sorry I did not get her name. Made an effort to help find another rental for me.

I was looking to rent a large SUV or van to transport students for a summer program in town. I work for a non-profit agency. Everybody I spoke to with Enterprise has been nothing but rude and arrogant and could care less if I was helped or not. I will take my business elsewhere and not deal with these jerks. I work for a non-profit agency and they refused to give me information on how to set up a corporate account. They also refused to accept a PO and basically refused to work with me. I made vehicle reservations elsewhere, with a company that gave me a cheaper rate!!!

I rented a car from May 31, 2017 to June 5, 2017. When I returned the car, Ms. **, Assistant Rental Branch Manager of Enterprise Branch 1791 at 1236 Washington Ave, Philadelphia told me that the car was not returned in the original condition due to a misalignment of the front passenger fog light and a scuff on the fender. I did not see any scratch. She put a claim to my insurance policy and deduct an additional $500 from my credit card for the damage reimbursement deductible regardless of how much does it cost to fix the car. I took a picture of the fog light and the light seem loosen. What is my option? Thank you.

Well I have been a loyal customer with this company for about one and a half years and the location off of Buddy Holly just got a whole new crew about approx 4 months ago. Steven (**: (insider)) the new manager we didn't really get along, bumped heads a lot and of course myself being a very angry lady just wanted to be in and out, get my rental and be gone. Well this particular Friday I was in a very bad mood, very busy and of course when I went in to get my rental well it wasn't there. This made me more angry and no matter how they tried to pacify me the more angry I got, so by the time Steven the manager came back from getting me a car from one of the other dealerships well, you could call me the angry ** woman I was enraged... so I am yelling at him in front of customers, his crew. I was just mad so he asked me to go with him to his office and he shut the door and sat down with a smile.
Oh my gosh what did he have to smile about. That's when I really let him have it and to tell you the truth, there really was not a reason for him to shut the door. I was LOUD. DIDN'T CARE. I WAS DONE, SO SINCE HE WAS THE MANAGER HE WAS GOING TO KNOW AND FEEL ME... well the craziest thing happened to me at this point. I am screaming, yelling and for some reason this man did not lose his composure. He sat quietly and listened to me and let me get thru my rant and this is the craziest part of all, instead of calling the police taking me home any of that he got on the phone and got me the very best rental he could get me... a 2017 Dodge Journey. I swear my trip was the most comfortable, safest trip that I have had in a long long time and to top it off I had to wait for about 30 minutes but this man never raised his voice. Stayed professional the whole time showed me the vehicle and even tried to show me how to work the system.
Told me there was no hard feelings on his part towards me and even shook my hand and told me to have a nice trip and safe return... this has never ever happened to me. I feel this manager and his crew deserve some type of AWARD ACCREDITATIONS, RAISE, EXTRA PAID VACATION, SOMETHING because not one time did this crew not stay professional. It was so amazing to me because I was not expecting that result... I know for a fact that I could not of been put in that situation if I had to deal with myself I would of quit... so to this manager and team I severely apologize that I was in a bad mood, that I could not control my temper that I put y'all thru that. I do feel very ashamed for my actions. Just please the best that you can please keep up the good work.
My weekend was amazing and it went that way because you all gave me A LOT of empathy and you all really knew how to connect and give compassion to this angry ** woman and for this I THANK Y'ALL SO MUCH!!!! Just from this experience I would recommend Enterprise Rent A Car to the world. Good job. You have changed the way I feel about renting cars.

I completed a reservation online for a friend. We went down to pick up the car at the time noted on the online reservation. When we arrived the front desk person, Jenna **, Branch Manager, was very rude at the beginning of the conversation and combative. We informed her about our reservation and she immediately stated that she had no cars, then when she checked, she stated, "You just made the reservation." I informed her that the website did not specify that no cars were available. Then she questioned the debit card issue and went as far as to state, "We don't take credit cards" and begin to elaborate about the other rental companies at the airport that does not take debit cards also. As I informed her, the website did not give us that information.
All I can say is that she was rude, absolutely not customer friendly. If the branch manager has such horrible customer service skills, I am afraid to connect with the employees that work under her leadership. I finally called one of the other Enterprise Rental locations (North Prospect) and talked to Brianna. It was totally the opposite of my experience at the airport. She was very friendly and helpful. She offered to assist and was willing to try to transfer the reservation from the airport location to her located, but then found out that Jenna had cancelled his reservation. Of course, we had no idea. REALLY. We were able to make a reservation at the North Prospect location. I will never go to the airport location again.

I rented a car at Louis Armstrong airport in New Orleans. This was at midnight June 1, 2017. I was walked around the car with the guy giving out the cars. I did not see any damages to the door nor windows as to what he said they look for. I go to return the car in New Iberia Louisiana and the manager takes me outside and says, "This car is damaged." I said, "What?" He said, "Look at the front and back. You put white out on the damages to cover them up." "Needless to say I did not damage the car sir." He also tells me give him 500 for the deductible. I said I don't have that and I did not damage this car.
I disputed the damages and they called my insurance and filed a claim. THIS REALLY SUCKS BECAUSE I AM A HONEST CUSTOMER AND DID NOT DAMAGE THIS! I don't even own white out/correction fluid. Insurance is already expensive in Louisiana. I drive safe. I just needed a ride home from an out of country stay. I hate Enterprise. And I will never rent a car again.

I'm going to make this short: Made a reservation days in advance, no show for pickup on rental day despite my call to confirm and their reply they were on their way. Called late that afternoon, said they had no cars. Missed all my appointments that day. It was really important. I have three children and my car was totaled at the time. Spent the next couple days waiting for a car. Would've moved on from there except there wasn't any other options in this city.
Finally got a rental and got charged for 2 days, a mistake one of the employees made. I've been calling for a month now trying to get it squared away. They keep saying it's refunded but in all actuality nothing has been done! They simply do not put customers first, just money, and they'll tell you one thing but do something completely different. I deserve a refund of the overcharge, and would like a free rental for the hassle, but you simply cannot count on anything with this company. COMPLETELY UNRELIABLE & DISHONEST.

It is virtually impossible to have an Enterprise Rent-a-Car employee in the UK collect a customer at her/his address and drive him to the office where (s)he would collect a pre-booked car. This is a mandatory part of the service Enterprise has given me in few other countries. I have just reserved a car for tomorrow with Enterprise London, having had great experience with this company in the US, Ireland, etc. England is a different story. I booked a car for 9 am tomorrow, with the pick up from my flat, which is less than 3 miles from their office. They quickly called back to say that I could only be picked up and taken to the office at 10 am!
When I asked to be picked up earlier, if they are busy around 9 am and as I did not mind setting off even at 8.30, they said they only collect customers on the hour! My next proposal was for them to come to my flat at 8 am (which is when their office is opened) and they said that it is not 'convenient' for an employee to collect me at 8 am and then drive me to the office, just before the starting time! All in all, I'll have to drag my two elderly guests tomorrow to the Enterprise office near me by using two different busses because Enterprise UK would not spare an employee to come and collect us - and it would take them less than 15 minutes to this!!! All of you outside the UK, be mindful of this when thinking of renting a car from this company when in England.

The Superstition Springs location in Mesa, AZ is always a frustrating experience for me. I have had to deal with them three times and each time it's been horrible. They leave early leaving customers without their RESERVED cars, their customer service is just... well they are just rude. I knocked on the door because I saw the associate sitting there at her desk BEFORE closing and she just ignored me but I had a reservation. When I called the 1-866 number the rep told me to either "Go to the airport with a credit card or go somewhere else". "I ask is that the best solution you have for me" and he said "Yeah".
Whenever they send me to this location I dread it and each time the feeling is merited. While I was sitting outside in the heat trying to figure out what to do because I do not have a credit card, an associate walked out from the back of the building and got in his car and sat there until we left. This is not good customer service. They may think I am just one person, oh well so we didn't rent that car out for two days. We'll make it up tomorrow but I am on a mission to get the word out about that location. Three times is two too many!

This was my first experience on renting a car. I went through reviews the day before renting a car and I was almost disappointed about the whole process even before picking up the car, but anyway I went to pick up the car at 5 a.m in the morning near Dulles Airport (DC area). It took like 2 minutes to do the paperwork. The car was brand new and spotless so I picked up the car, went on a trip and came back on the time when I was supposed to. It took them few minutes to check the car and do the paperworks and I was charged the exact amount I was told at the beginning. No surprises, No ripoff, No hard time. The staff were nice and friendly both at 5 in the morning and 11 at night. So I was happy with the whole experiment.

Ft Lauderdale. Due to late flight arrival and necessity to drive almost 20 minutes to get to rental location, showed up at 2:58. Upon entering office (the door was held open for me by an Enterprise employee) was told they were closed (though it was not yet 3 PM). Then told since I did not arrive at 2 PM, my reservation was canceled. And was told they didn't have any more cars, (though there were at least 5 cars in the lot) come back tomorrow, can't guarantee same rate, etc.
Asked to speak to manager. He said he was the manager. Asked to speak to his boss. He said his boss was not available. After pushing issue he gave up **'s name, but said her phone number would just come to their office anyway - and since they were closed... Asked for HER boss. Manager said he wouldn't give it to me. Asked him to call the **'s boss then. He said no. At that point the guy who drove me to the office said, "C'mon, don't be an **". "You can't use language like that here!" We were told (though when I walked into the office the "f-word" was being thrown about liberally between the employees). So they told me to leave and not come back, even though it wasn't ME, the customer, who said it.
In order to not have a trespassing charge leveled against us, we went across the street to a shopping center parking lot and called Priceline, who were absolutely no help whatsoever. While in the parking lot we had direct line of sight on the Enterprise facility... and as the employees left, they each hopped into what appeared to be cars not "rented". Could be wrong. Perhaps each of them made huge salaries allowing them to own $40,000 late model vehicles and those were personal vehicles parked in front of the door, in the same area where others drove off in rental cars when we arrived. The only one who left without a vehicle that day was me, the paying customer but I will never again pay for another car from Enterprise, Alamo, or National... and will liberally share my experience on Facebook, Linked In, Yelp, etc.

We were given a rental because someone had hit our SUV, it was a Jeep, it had an odor in it.

My auto insurance company secured the rental after my vehicle was damaged. When returned, the not so nice agent did a walk around inspection. She stated there's a $75 fee if any pet hair is found inside their vehicle and showed me this is stated on the signed agreement; however, I was permitted to clean the car myself which is what I did. When I returned home, I examined my copy of the contract and that part was blacked out! What I signed (and they kept) was the whole contract and my copy did not have the same info! Misleading and corrupt in my opinion.
They know when the vehicle is returned after more than 30 consecutive days of use, there's bound to be something which qualifies as an additional charge. Plus, if it's nearing closing time, the customer will simply comply and walk away! The blacked out wordage is where they inform you of their "fees" and believe me, they have a fee for everything!!! But this, ridiculous, because the car was not spot free when I received it. Also, I only found ONE PERSON working there who was polite and genuinely friendly. I'll never use them again, they are underhanded and cheat consumers.

After a long absence I thought I would try Enterprise again, a mistake, it’s back to Budget for me. There was a long wait for my car at the Portland airport. When I finally got through standing in line, the small car I had booked was not available. They substituted a large car that was no fun to drive or park in Portland traffic. Then I needed to add some days to my trip. To modify a reservation, expect a long hold but do it on the phone because can’t be done online. Expect the usual “we are experiencing an unusually high call volume” (translation we are too greedy to hire enough people to do the job”).
Don’t waste your time trying to modify a reservation online--it does not work. The jaunty phone message says: "You can modify your reservation online, simply click on Modify My Reservation." "It’s that easy!”. Not only is it NOT "that easy", it is impossible. Clicking online on "Modify" doesn’t do anything but take you back to the phone number for the "high call volume" message. You can expect to hear this infuriating message at least 30 times while on hold.

My car was hit sitting in my yard. The insurance rented me a car at Enterprise, and told me where to get estimate. Enterprise picked me up, I told them I did not rent cars so let me know if insurance stopped paying. A few days after they stopped, Enterprise called to say I should have it back 2 days before. Now I owe 166 dollars. The guy who told me he would contact me is no longer there. The manager says the insurance should pay, but there is nothing he can do because it has been sent to accounting. I already had to pay more than what insurance paid me to get my car fixed. This is just insult to injury.

I paid for my rental through Expedia and got the insurance as I was going on a business trip and it was required through my work. When I got to the rental agency in San Antonio, TX, shuttled from the airport, they said they had to scan my credit card but it would be a zero/no charge. It was 11:00 pm and I just wanted my car so I let them scan my credit card. I then went out to a dark parking lot where I was given the keys to the car and asked to sign/initial a handheld device. It was dark and I told the person I could not read it, what was he asking me to sign. He said "that your picking up your car". I did as I was told, he gave me a packet and I was on my way.
Five days later I drop off my car and they ask if I want my receipt. They charged me $197.00 for insurance, even though I had already paid through Expedia, and after I was told I wasn't going to be charged on my card. When I tried to dispute it they told me "I signed the contract". It was a total rip off and took advantaged of me. I called Expedia and all they were willing to do was refund the $60 I paid for insurance through them. I will never rent through them again and I don't recommend anyone else to either!

Walked to Enterprise at the Toronto Airport on May 22, 2017 around 16:00 to find the front line staff busy on his cell phone while I am waiting in line to be called for service! Then, he noticed it and called me, I started by greeting him and he seemed to be unhappy because I bothered him of what he was doing on his cell phone. However, I said, "Please let me explain you my needs so you may direct me to the best option you have to uncover my needs."
My request was basically that I needed to rent a Minivan, Dodge Grand Caravan to use it for personal and business usage "driving for Uber" until I get back my own vehicle that was temporary out of service. He quickly replied, "You cannot do that..." I said, "I have here a reply email from Uber that I can drive a rented car!" He started to read the email and suddenly said, "Our Dodge is very expensive and will cost you around $700 a week", then called next customer on line in very unprofessional and rude way!!
I was really shocked because of the way he called other customer while he did not complete my transaction. I said, "How can you call other customer while I am still talking to you!" He said, "You can book online!" Again, I was shocked and said, "Book online while I am here on the counter!" He said, "I cannot deal with it, I have to take another customer." I said, "And I have to get information about my request". Then he said, "OK, I am sold out!" I said, "This is the way to deal with a customer request, may I know your name." Quickly replied, "Rayan and I am the branch manager." I said, "What a poor branch manager and I am sorry to come here today, you do not see how many competitors beside you in the area. I am going to check another company and will escalate this experience to your head office for further action." I hope they take it serious for customer experience and company image.

Called to schedule a pickup for a vehicle on May 16, 2017 to be picked up today May 22, 2017 by lunch. I am two hours from home so I just dropped my car off at the shop to be fixed. When I scheduled the pickup I told them I would be using the vehicle for at least one week and that I had lost my home in February to a house fire; this meant that I had no current utility bills in my name for the past two and half months. The lady told me that was fine. Got there today and filled out the papers just to find out that they could not find my name in the computer for reservation. The lady proceed to start the rental process anyway. After taking pictures of my license she then asked for a utility bill. I informed her that I had already spoke to someone about that when I made the reservation. She then gets on the phone and call someone (I'm hearing the entire conversation).
She gets off the phone and tell me that they can't give me a car without a utility bill. I asked her, "Did she mentioned that I don't have one because I lost my home to fire and had discontinued everything?" She replied, "Yes" and I called her a lie and told her that I heard the entire conversation. She then states that they still couldn't do it without a bill and that was their policy. I told her then they need to reconsider their policy before they lose all of their business. Went down the road to one of their competitors and walked in the door and explained everything and was placed in a car at a cheaper value within 10 minutes or less. Guess what? USave just gained my rental business for now on. Enterprise in Philadelphia, MS will not get my business anymore.
Not to mentioned that the last time I tried to rent from Enterprise one year ago, they almost pulled the same thing. Different was I was four hours from house when I hit a deer in my car and was in need of a ride. They had me running from Meridian, MS to Philadelphia, MS to Jackson, MS trying to get a car because of a utility bill. When I got to Jackson I was asked for any of the stuff that the one in Philadelphia, Jackson nor Meridian was asking for. They have lost my business for good. It's sad how you can go somewhere else and be in and out within thirty minutes. Thanks to God for blessing someone else with understanding with a rental business.

While my car was in the shop due to a accident, my insurance company sent me to Enterprise, at 2233 Washington. One of their employees met me at the body shop, with a Jeep Cherokee, (His name was **) and I gave him my debit card for the 50.00 deposit. I told him I would prefer a truck. He told me he could get me a truck for the same price (1st Lie). He said he would call me and let me know... He never called (2nd Lie) so I tried to reach him. I left several messages, that they told me they would give him, he still never called me. Then I tried to get gas, and the gas door wouldn't open, so I took that vehicle back, and they gave me a smaller Jeep. I really needed a truck, I have a landscape Business, so I asked again for a truck and I would pay the difference that the insurance company didn't pay... rented the truck for 2 days. I brought the truck back. They didn't give me a receipt saying what I owed.
They said it would take a couple of days. (Why so Long) Finally I happened to check my bank account, and they had charge me 62.00 for the deposit, and a week later charge me again 42.00, so I went back and asked them, "Why was it 62.00?" I spoke with a young lady name **. She said she didn't know why so she did some figuring and determined I was overcharged by 49.00 anyway and that she would issue a refund. I told her she did a very good job and that I would give her a report (they never even gave me a survey form).
I waited a week still no refund, so I went back to Enterprise and asked one of the managers to help me. He said he couldn't find any record of where they owed me the refund, so I asked for the young lady who helped me before, and she happened to walk in, and, she said she does remember me, and that she had put the request on someone's desk to be approve... so she told me she would reissue it again, AND I STILL HAVEN'T RECEIVED IT!!! This all started March 23, 2017. This location has VERY VERY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE... they lie to you to get you on your way, and when they lie, they are very courteous about doing so, I would like to know if anyone can help me getting this refund...

I reserved a car with Orbitz, and paid a deposit, when I purchased my flight to Canada. When completing the paperwork at the Enterprise counter, I was told that the insurance for the car would be "around" $10.00 per day. However at the end of lease (34 days), the cost for said insurance was "around" $30.00/day making the cost of the insurance as much as the rental (around $950.00). Also I was never told that there was airport fees that would add an additional $300.00. Imagine my surprise when the cost turned out to be $2500.00 instead of the $900.00 I was expecting to pay.
The representatives at the counter could only credit my account for $400.00, and that was reluctantly done. I called Enterprise when I returned home to see if the main office could help me, but there seemed to be nothing they could, or would, do. In addition, the amount I paid to Orbitz for the car on the reservation has never been refunded by Enterprise. I will never use this company again. I should have read the reviews.

I've been renting from Enterprise since 2009 from 2 different locations and never once have I ever been involved in any accidents but that all changed on Dec 5, 2016. The experience since has made me NEVER want to deal with Elco Administrative Services again. Elco is a third party company Enterprise will claim however the state of secretary website will tell you differently. They hire to handle their accident claims process, and believe me when I say you DO NOT want to deal with this company. It's been months since my accident but the whole ordeal is still ongoing. I have been to court several times as a result of the initial accident. I received emails from Elco up until 1/24/17 and then nothing until 4/27/17.
Now I am being threatened verbally over the phone and in writing by Elco Administrative Services that they are going to take me to collections. They claim that they are owed money for damages paid out to the other party. Here's the thing... They didn't even contact me from 1/24/17 to 4/27/17 to keep me informed of anything going on with the case and then all of a sudden they want to tell me that I owe 3,050.11 for damages they paid out. I never was contacted before them agreeing to pay out any amount and have never been told what the damages were and whether or not they obtained independent estimates. I'm just supposed to take their word for it that the amount is what's owed. I never authorized them to settle on my behalf.
In this whole ordeal I learned that Enterprise Rent a Car is required by law to carry the state mandated amount of liability insurance which is to be provided when we accept insurance coverage from Enterprise. Yet I am being held responsible for damages. I have been unsuccessful in working with Elco or in having Enterprise handle this ordeal and I am now having to go to small claims on this issue. I've also had to file complaints with multiple companies regarding this matter. To make matters worse... My grandma died on Feb 4, 2017 and so I am also having to grieve her death while dealing with this whole ordeal.
It's ridiculous. It's like a nightmare that you just can't seem to wake up from. I shouldn't be having to go through any of this, and trust me it has made me NOT want to deal with Enterprise Rent a Car ever again. That's sad because I used to love renting from them, but I think I'm going to have to look for another rental car company.

Holy cow... If I could rate it at zero stars, I would. I went online to the Enterprise site, and set up my rental. This was at 3, but the online site said cars were available. So I figured it should be OK???? Not even close... I called the Tacoma location on 4th and St Helens street for my pick up. They told me it would be over 2 hours. But I only live .76 miles away! I told them I would just take an Uber over to avoid the hassle of waiting. I decided to walk because it's sunny. I arrived to a staff who was not only unfriendly, but completely rude and unprofessional. ** (** woman) never smiled one time. Then proceeded to tell me that ONLY a truck was available. I asked if she could call the other locations for a car and she refused. Then, right in front of me made calls to other locations for other reasons.
I asked for a ride back to my apartment, she said it would be 2 hours (in a very condescending tone). OF COURSE IT WOULD BE?!?!? Why would I expect anything less? I asked if I was stuck driving the truck, do they discount since I rented a car that would have had great gas mileage and now I'm stuck driving something with awful Mileage... Her response was, "I've decided I will not rent to you". Uuuummmm OK... So I walk all the way back home.
Call customer service who assures me that they can get me a rental at another location (same price) and they will pick me up. Nobody picked me up. At 5:30 I called and they said the reservation had been changed again to a further location... and guess what? They don't pick up where I'm at. So, it is now 6:04 and NOBODY from Enterprise had any real solution for me, so apparently a regional manager will call within 24 hours. I'm so glad that a reservation through Enterprise just cost me about $200 in Uber services. I really want to swear right now... But it would be completely pointless... You get the point. I now get to pay 95 each way to Seattle. This is absolutely the most un-amazing service, Enterprise. Congrats!!! :(

My insurance company set up a rental reservation for me through Enterprise while my car was being repaired. The incident with my car occurred on a Sunday so the office was closed. First of all, when we called on Monday coordinate a pickup at our home, either there would be no answer at the Enterprise office or we would be hung up on as soon as the line was picked up. As we are a one car family we had to find another way for my husband to get to work because I was unable to reach Enterprise until Tuesday.
On Tuesday when I finally reached an Enterprise rep the person I spoke with told me they could not assist me as my reservation was set up at a location 4 hours away from me and would not be available for another month. I advised the rep that may be another for another person with the same name however, that was not for me. I was then asked to advise the other name I used on the reservation. There wasn't one, only I was on the reservation. Also, on Tuesday I was later advised that I could be picked up at 5 pm but to call an hour in advance to confirm. I began calling over 3 hours in advance and encountered the same issues as the previous day (no answers, hang ups).
The following day, Wednesday, I called to find out what happened with my pickup and was told 'Yeah that was set up for today, should be any time'. Three hours later I call only to learn that there were no pick up cars available and I would have to wait. When I finally made it to the Enterprise location things seemed to have calmed down a bit but by that point I was so frustrated and ready to get back on the road I did not pay attention to the details, I did not notice that no photos were taken of the car I was receiving and that no damaged was noted on the paperwork when I signed for the car.
So today, just over a week after picking up the car, when I went in to bring the rental back to them several scratches were noticed on the front bumper. I cannot definitely say they were there when I picked up the car, again I did not take photos, the rep did not take photos but I can definitely say the scratches did not occur when I was using the car. That's also not to say that the car did not get scratched when it was in the parking lot at the office or at a grocery store. Point being I have learned my lesson, always take photos yourself to show the condition of the car at pickup.
I have just paid a $500 deductible to have my own car repaired and will now have to pay another $500 as a deductible for the repairs on this rental, which I do not feel I am responsible for. I wish I had read other people's comments on situations like this before I ever began this rental process. I will NEVER set up another rental with Enterprise. If you or someone you know MUST book with Enterprise please do your due diligence and take lots of photos of the car you're being given BEFORE ever leaving the parking lot with it. Hope this helps someone.

Enterprise policies and processes are directed at benefiting Enterprise (and insurance companies). I received a statement post-rental for a small amount, no problem. To try and pay this small amount has been ridiculous. No online payment, no phone payment at corporate or branch level (even with a card on file). Can't mail a check, unless it's a money order. So, I leave work early and get to the branch 2 minutes after closing.
Employee watches me get out of my car and hurriedly locks door and leaves. Daniel, the branch manager is in lot and comes up to ask if I am returning (a car). (Daniel, that didn't return my call earlier in the day when I called and he was "busy".) When I said I needed to pay a bill he first told me after looking at his watch they had been closed 5 minutes. He then added that their systems were down. Really? Business practices should be focused on making the complete process from beginning to end as uncomplicated as possible for customers.

I rented a one-way car returning to the St Louis Airport. The agent at the airport got down on his knees at each corner of the car to look down the length of the car. He invented a dent on the back door which did not exist and wrote an incident report. I complained to the location management office about the non-existent dent and was informed that it was their policy to "Closely" inspect cars coming in from other locations. Obviously it is also their policy at the St. Louis Airport to invent damage so that they can defraud their customers and charge for non-existent damages. I will not rent from Enterprise again.

On May 1, 2017, I dropped my vehicle off to AutoNation Collision Center in Tyler, TX due to an auto accident. Your company has an Enterprise Rental center inside the Collision Center as well, which made renting a vehicle convenient. Your representative was friendly and swift; I was on my way in 10 minutes or less. On May 11, 2017 the Collision Center notified me that my vehicle was ready for pickup. About 3 pm I arrived at AutoNation Collision Center driving the rental, returning to the exact location of pickup. When I walked in I informed the representative at the front desk that I was there to pick up my car and return the rental, however no one was at the Enterprise desk. The AutoNation representative stated that she could assist me with both the rental return and the pick of my vehicle.
After receiving my car, the representative ask for the rental keys and I gave them to her. I asked for the return paperwork for the rental and she said there was none. I stepped out of the Collision office and called the Enterprise number listed on my rental agreement. This is where the nightmare began. The Enterprise representative at the local office stated that I could just leave and they would send someone to get the car and they would notify me if there were issues. I informed him that I have not received any paperwork for the return. The Enterprise representative then stated that if I wanted return paperwork I should have returned the rental to the main office. I told him I brought the rental back to the same location as the pickup and during the pick up I was giving rental paperwork.
He stated I would have to drive the rental to their main location and then come back for my vehicle, even though I told him my car had been released to me and was sitting in the street due to the heavy volume of customer flow at the Collision center. However he continuous informed me that if something happened to the rental I would still be responsible. This quarreling went on for about 20 minutes. Finally the representative, out of frustration and the lack of any more patience, stated he would send two associates over to get the vehicle, so I waited. When the associates arrived, the younger one went inside to retrieved the keys. I followed them back to the main office, however instead of parking the vehicle in the front, as they did during my other returns, the driver drove the rental to the back. I parked and went inside where Representative Chris Ivey was waiting at the counter.
I explained my concerns again about not getting return documentation, the inconvenience to me as a customer, the lack of communication given for rental returns, and if the Enterprise Center located in the Collision Center will not be manned during the Collision Center hours a sign needs to be displayed. Chris became very upset and short with me stating that customers drop the rental off all the time at the Collision Center without return paperwork and that it was common practice. Again I expressed my desires for my return paperwork. Chris abruptly walked away from the counter to the back. I continued to stand at the counter just waiting, not being told or given any direction.
While waiting another associate drove up and walked in. The associate asked me my name and stated he had been instructed to pick me up from the Collision Center and the rental car. I informed him that two other associates had came and drove the rental back. After about 10 minutes of waiting, Chris reappears and tells me to follow him to the back. We get to the back and Chris starts stating that the rental has hail damages. There were two other associates (I assume they were drivers or vehicles cleaners) in the back as well and they nor I could see any damage or dents. I asked Chris to point out or as Chris called it "Hail Damage". At that point, I walked back to the front counter and Chris ask me did I take the car out of the State of Texas and I reply No!! Rep. Chris then states that since the car has less than 100 miles on it there is no way I could have and begins to complete the return in the system.
The tension and frustration seems to be over and Rep. Chris and myself begin to small talk and laugh. He states he needs to refund my $50 deposit and I'll be on my way. While completing the paperwork, the power goes completely out and Chris tells me that he will email me my copy when the power comes back on. I say ok and he writes on my copy of the original rental agreement the following information (Copy attached): Veh checked in 5/11/17, computers down, 10330 - Full tank, need to refund deposit, signs his name and make himself a copy. At that point I tell him thank you and leave. It's now about 4:20 and I'm 20 minutes late from my lunch break. Halfway to my job, Representative Chris calls and states he's going to charge me for "Hail Damages", the same damages he could not point out to his two associates and me.
I firmly state to Representative Chris that his behavior and actions are unacceptable and that I'm coming back to take pictures of the rental for my proof. He states the car is in back and cant be brought back around, nor can I go back there (Hence the fact that he took me back there earlier) again I tell him that I'm on my way back and to have the vehicle available for pictures. Chris states whatever and hangs up on me. When I get back to your main rental office, I ask Chris for your corporate information and he refuses to give it me. Chris stated he was the corporate office. He informed me of his title and stated any complaints I wanted to file would come directly to him so I'm was wasting my time. I took his card and left. Just so you know, I had to google to get your corporate contact information.

Experienced a very poor response from the Enterprise's staff member at Alicante railway station, Spain in April 2017. I had mislaid my wallet when I came to collect my hire car and, even though the car was prepaid and I had all other documentation and I.D., the staff would not let me hire a car without further deposit, but they still would not accept deposit payment either by cash or my wife's credit card. The man behind the counter was incredibly rude, totally unsympathetic to our plight, unhelpful and effectively told us "tough **"!
We were left to our own devices to somehow make our onward journey, whilst struggling with 3 pieces of luggage each. Luckily for us, one of Enterprise's competitors had an office nearby who were more than willing to accept full payment and deposit on my wife's credit card and we picked up an alternative car. The original booking agent for Enterprise has ruled out any refund. Needless to say, we will never consider booking with Enterprise again.

I have been a regular customer of Enterprise Rent A Car for over 10 years, mainly renting at the office located at 2892 Lake Ariel Highway Honesdale, PA 18431-2417. I rent practically every weekend, the weekend special. I have been on a cordial relationship with all the staff at the rental office for over 5 years through 3 different managers. The recent manager ** who took over has been extremely unprofessional towards me with a recent incident. I rented a car as usual, and they expect my business, and know that I decline additional insurance coverage and utilize my American Express card to pay for the transaction and cover insurance on the rental. Picked me up from my home, and after driving me ~10 miles to the office told me there was no smaller vehicles - I prefer economy cars for handling and gas mileage - and practically forced me to upgrade to a pickup truck.
I returned the pickup truck with extra gas as I normally do and was parking when I tapped the guard rail. Since it is directly in front of the door to the office they heard the tap. Afterward I got out to examine it and noticed a small dent in the rear bumper, there was dust on the dent and when I looked at the guard rail there was not a mark to be found. ** told me that I needed to contact my insurance company, to get a claim number. I started the process and then saw that they include in the fine print that pickup trucks are not covered by the AmEx policy.
I contacted ** the next day and he provided me no options other than to pay out of pocket, I asked if he could at least work with me on the cost of the repair since he had not informed me prior to my arrival at the office that an economy class car would not be available. He simply stated "No, we upgraded you. We didn't dent the bumper". Over the last year I have rented from this office about 50 times, and this manager treated me as cold as though I were some stranger who they had never seen before and had done something wrong. I venture to guess that I was the most frequent customer that this office had, yet because of this incident I am planning to buy a vehicle and stop renting.

The office location only open 'till 6pm, but I could do the trip, see the sights, and get back by 6. Sadly they never showed up. At 1pm began to walk to office after waiting and calling several times for 35 minutes. Walked and walked in 85 degree weather, office was not at address. Finally after 9 calls got a hold of a manager at company, on hold for 15 minutes only to find out she could not reach the office as well, and she said there is nothing else she could do for me at all, and hung up! I was devastated, and was so excited about exploring the state to tell someone that they won't help you, then hang up, only to get a survey recording about their service was complete salt on the wound. I will never, ever rent from them again, and you should not either!

Prepaid the 14 day car rental charge online, called airport staff and inquired if I could return car early, advised yes, no problem. After returning car, couldn't get a refund for 10 days non-use from airport staff, they advised me no problem in getting what was due to me I just had to contact the corporate offices. Made multiple attempts to contact corporate offices, got an email from George ** apologizing for problem and advised me to call him. After multiple phone attempts unable to contact him or anyone via phone at Enterprise. Moral of this story, do not prepay car rental charges, especially with Enterprise Rent A Car.

Sorry but I would really like to give zero stars. The Langhorne location deserves this shout out. We stopped in to get a rental after an accident the previous night and had an enterprise employee bring a vehicle out of the wash shed and run into the back of our vehicle while we were backing out. Instead of being an upstanding group of people and take accountability in their part of the accident, they simply stated the law and said, "You were backing out so you are 100% at fault," and hung us out to dry, not an even an 'It was both our faults'. Will never step into this place again and will steer anyone away if possible.

My wife had a flight from Fredericton, NB, Canada back to our home in Florida today. Due to weather it was canceled and she was rescheduled for tomorrow. She stays about 1 hour driving time from the Fredericton Airport and her flight was to leave at 5:00 AM tomorrow. Rather than bother someone come pick her up and then get up at 3:00 AM tomorrow to get back I suggested that she rent a car from Enterprise, our normal go-to for car rentals.
The counter at the airport informed her that there were no cars available until tomorrow. (The other 3 companies had the same story.) She asked if there was an Enterprise location in the city. The salesperson said, "I think so." My wife asked the counter lady if she could call another Enterprise location, the answer was "No" then "Yeah, I guess so" after some prompting. Then she told my wife that the other location would not be allowed to pick her up at the airport location (something about rules to protect the location's sales and I understand there are such rules). So my wife asked if she could go out the airport drive to wait for the car (it was raining cats and dogs) and was told that she could not be allowed to do that. So a couple of hundred dollars in taxi fares are the results. Thanks for your "Customer Service" help Enterprise. Won't be seeing you anywhere else in the world in the near future, count on it.

I rented a car with Enterprise on 04/3 at Fort Lauderdale Airport to 04/20. First of all they gave me a Ford Focus, the worst car ever. I went to 10 different Enterprises to switch this car but the answer was the same: "I don't have any car available." I booked by their website one promotion that I'll return the car at SC and the price was $244.64 + $100 deposit for 3 weeks (I paid this amount when I rented). When I returned the car I had one surprise: $1,184.00 additional to pay. I couldn't believe... So the sales from SC said to me that I could return the car without pay anything but I'll need to call to Enterprise from Fort Lauderdale to figure out what was going on. When I called they couldn't explain to me so they opened a claim to verify. After 2 days they called me and told that it was by mistake.
They gave a discount in my bill and that will return my money back and also will give me 3 days rent for free to try to do this right... But none of those situation happen. I'm completely unsatisfied because they didn't return my deposit. I'll never rent a car with Enterprise... I had to call several times and to me looks like they treat their customer like a **.

My dad called in to reserve a vehicle in order to pick up my sister from college for the end of the semester. There is a lot of us; as I have 4 sisters and two parents and my daughter. With that said, my dad reserved a 15 seater so all of us can go and there will be enough space for all of us to surprise my sister as we never all went up to see her. The day before we were to pick up the vehicle, my dad received a call where a voicemail was left advising him that this was a confirmation of his vehicle rental and to call back to confirm. He called back almost instantly, to which he was hung up on. He tried back 6 times and the same thing happened each time.
So today we come to pick up the vehicle, to which the branch manager tells us that to rent this particular vehicle, my father has to have a major credit card; which he doesn't have because his identity was stolen earlier this year. He cancelled all of them. This rule was never conveyed to him during the rental or in the voicemail left on his cell phone. When my dad explained that to the branch manager, she replied "I don't make the rules, that's just how If is". She continued to try to rent a 7 seater vehicle to my father to which he declined because it is too small.
My father asked to speak with someone and she replied that there was no one he could speak with because it is a Sunday. We proceed to wait 45 minutes to speak with someone as my father insisted because of the inconvenience and lack of communication and the time restraint we are in need of this vehicle. As I speak we are still sitting waiting for someone to address our situation as other customers who came after us are being serviced. I have worked in customer service for 7 years of my life, as my father has worked in customer service for 25 years. I have never seen such a lack of disconnect or empathy in a business. This is ridiculous.

For research purposes this story is much more interesting when you read all the other similar reviews about this particular Enterprise Rent A Car location @ 1207 W Ridge Pike, Conshohocken, PA on Google & Yelp. I've been a top level preferred plus member to Avis rental car for over a decade but figured I'll give Enterprise a try b/c the rate was a little cheaper this time. BIG MISTAKE... On my very first time renting from this location this seemingly new inexperienced kid claims I dented the vehicle's rocker panel "area under the door" which is significantly smaller than a golf ball. They informed me wouldn't be an issue but even worse it's not visible to the naked eye so it could have been there when I rented the car because I didn't rub the car down for bumps before driving off.
The manager that inspected the car when I picked up the rental did a thorough inspection but did not "feel" for insignificant dents and he said everything was good. So when the car was returned and the agent preceded to explain that the dent he found was not visible but he could feel it, that tells me it could have always been there! I know I didn't cause a dent on that vehicle but regardless of my dispute or any formal investigation my credit card was immediately charged $500. The assistance manager Lou was very rude and unhelpful, customer service & regional manager did reach out but since neither has followed up to help resolve this issue. It felt like more of a public relations stunt than honest concern for the paying customer's issue. I'm seeking legal representation.

My husband rented a car because our jeep was in the shop. I was quoted 289.00 for the week, which wasn't bad. By the time we took the rental back, they charged my credit card almost 500 dollars! They took it upon their selves to add insurance, when we were already fully covered through our own! They told my insurance was cheap, and they didn't think it covered rental cars, which they were wrong!

I am writing because of the unsatisfactory customer service I experienced at this location. Here is my story: My mother (84) and I was in a car accident, where we were hit head on by a 94 year old driver who blacked out behind the wheel. Needless to say all parties left alive. My mother's car was totaled in the accident. The insurance company took care of the rental for a week, however, we needed the car an extra week. I called Enterprise on the day it was due back. It was 4:47pm, I was asked to hold. I held on the line for 18 minutes. I used another phone and called back, by this time the store is closed. I call another Enterprise to find out what to do. I was told to call the store in the morning and ask for a manager. So I did this.
When I asked for a manager, it just so happen to be the man that left me on hold for over 15 minutes. He apologized and took care of the car for 1 more day which was a Friday. I call Enterprise and ask, "Can I keep the car one more week? At what cost." I was told 23.50 a day. When I brought the car back on Friday, the next day I checked my bank acct and I was charged 248.00 dollars for a week rental. Needless to say I was surprised. So I call... The 1st time someone answered the phone, said, "We will be happy to take care of it." And left the line with me holding for ten minutes.
Call back a second time, asked for a manager, placed on hold for 11 more minutes without someone coming back to acknowledge me. Third time, spoke with an associate, was placed on hold again for 8 minutes. This time the associate came back and rudely told me that is what I owed. By the way the first car they gave me the registration tags was expired. Had to switch cars. SMH. Thanks Enterprise, signed not a happy customer.

I really had to think about what I wanted to say. At first I convinced myself to let it be, but it bothered me enough that I had to write a review. I've been renting Enterprise vehicles from the same location for the past sixteen years. October of 2016 my wife's car was hit while it was parked. We had the car at a auto body shop. While the vehicle was being fixed we rented a car from your Main Street location in Clifton New Jersey. Met a young man named Stephen. Had a pleasant experience, wasn't too thrilled about the car but it was the cheapest rental (it was coming out of my pocket). Long story short my wife's vehicle never got fixed, we had the rental longer than expected ongoing issues with the finance and insurance companies so every couple of weeks I would go in and sign some paperwork, give them the deposit so the contract would start over again. This went on for almost seven months.
I work full time and sometimes I just couldn't make it to the office to sign for a new rental agreement but it seemed like there was no problem because they would charge my credit card the rental fee without even asking. On one occasion I had to go down to Woodbridge NJ and wouldn't be back until the following Monday so I had spoken to Sarah (excellent customer service) and confirmed that I would stop by on Monday. Saturday morning I get a threatening phone call from an Adrew ** saying that I would get arrested if I didn't bring the car back. At first it was kind of amusing after about five minutes it got annoying so I told him that I had already spoken to Sarah about it. Nope not good enough. He said he was the manager and if the Police would pull me over (for what reason I don't know) they would tow the car and arrest me. At this point I'm pissed off.
He gets into a verbal argument with me while I'm trying to explain to him that I'm the customer and I've been renting a vehicle from Enterprise for the past six months and never have I received a call from somebody threatening me with being arrested. As I'm talking to him, he hangs up on me, so I call back to talk with him several times to no avail. I've been working retail for most of my life. Never have I come across such arrogance and lack of respect towards a customer. I got excited enough to reach out to an area supervisor supposedly (Elizabeth) who made him write me a lame excuse of an apology. Going forward I will still rent from Enterprise but to the powers to be (if this ever reaches them) all you need is 1 (one) rotten apple to ruin the sack! On a nicer note Sarah and Stephen you guys were a joy, thanks for making it little more bearable. Good Luck.

When she got in the car, she said the carpet was wet on the passenger side. The rear passenger side carpet was wet also. Neither the front or rear carpet was wet on the driver's side and none of the seats were wet. The airport location was closed so I returned the vehicle the next day at 10:57.

Then on November 17, 2016 (47 days later), I receive a letter from Enterprise stating "Our Damage Unit has received notification of damage or loss to the vehicle you rented."
On December 14, 2016 I received a letter from Enterprise stating they had to salvage this new vehicle and that I owed them $7,474.70. I called the local agent and told him I wanted to dispute the charges. They told me they had no control over that, it was up to the damage claim unit in Kansas City, MS. When I talked to them they said it was up to the local agent. When I called back, I was told by the regional manager that he would investigate and get right back with me. I had the vehicle in question for 12 hrs and 30 minutes. There was 36 miles registered on the odometer. To me, there should never have been a question. However, after about 2 weeks the regional manager calls and leaves a message on my answering service. That since the water damage was not reported at time of pick-up, they were still holding me responsible.

Last time customer service rep said he was sending email and I would have a response within a week. That was 2 weeks ago (April 6) nothing.

Even though they had my insurance information and I had my insurance information on me they still had me sign paperwork. Later on that week when I return the car they're charging me $175 for personal insurance for their vehicle. Their allegation was that I did not use my insurance on the vehicle. I was never informed or asked or told about such fees. I guess they want to protect their own vehicles to the full extent even though I did have full coverage and they had it on file. When I ask to speak to the manager they clearly said, "You signed the paperwork. You get charged for it. Have a nice day."
It's bad enough I went without a car for a month. The minute I pick one they turn around and charge me $170 like I haven't been through enough. What my three-year-old going to work on the bus. They should be charged with embezzlement or fraud and should perform better training for their employees instead of getting their money in rushing people out.

I read fine print... they do allow debit. Requires addition fees and a plane ticket but guess what she didn't ask me for? I live in town and return to same town. My car was just acting up and needed a rental. Is it because I look young? I'm over 30. You can't discriminate on age.
So I left and returned with a friend's cc... all in the mean while calling to see if that would work, no answer. I even called walking in to airport while she wasn't with a customer and guess what? No answer. She replied to me when confronting that she can't answer when with a customer. Guess what, it's 10 minutes to close. You didn't answer because you're lazy! Then of course says I can't use this cc not even if she reserved it for me online. I get that. But the bs about me not being able to rent, no deal.

Set up a 9 day rental with a 10:30 am pick up. Planned my entire day around counting on Enterprise to pick me up. 10:30 comes and goes, no pickup. I give them 15 minutes just in case they are running late then called them. It was apparent they had totally forgot to come get me. They said they were leaving immediately. So it's now 11:10 am while I still wait. Called the customer service line to complain and the customer service people were no help. They said regional would call me within 48 hours. Wow, what a help since in 48 hours I hope to be halfway across the country. My recommendation, there are many other companies that will keep their promise, don't use Enterprise!

My car was down and I needed transportation. They had a 9.99 weekend special at Enterprise so I called to reserve my car at 1885 E Brooks Rd, Memphis, Tn. I was told to bring a light bill, telephone bill or other named items (Odd to me because I have rented cars from Enterprise on a number of occasions, but I've never had to show no such items, however, I do realize policies change). For three weeks I've rented a car from Enterprise, however one thing I did notice that refunds from Enterprise always takes 6 to 7 days before being credited back into your account. When renting a car from them they always hold $200.00 over the amount of the weekend special which was 234.34 for the week in question. On April 5th I returned their car full of gas and in perfect condition. Two days later I notice my checking account had an extra $91.62 taken other than an reimbursement of $142.72.
I called the office on Brooks where I rented the car and talked with a young man there, I didn't get his name. After explaining the situation, he tried to explain but was not making any sense concerning my complaint. He referred me to ** their accountant. She suggested that I do a three way call with my banker and she would tell them to release my funds because my transaction was pending. I explained to her that it was not pending because it would show me pending. I so informed her that 234.34 was taken out of my account and 91.62. After trying to get her to see the problem she became another problem. An attitude problem. She was very nasty and on the completion of our conversation she slammed the phone down in my ear. I called her back and informed her in a nice way that I thought it was very unprofessional for slamming the phone down in my ear.
I had worked as a Manager for 30 years and her attitude would never be allowed. I asked for the Corp. office number. She said there was no Corp. number and referred me to her supervisor by the name of **. I called him and he asked that I call the bank on a three way so he could talk with my bank, this allowed him to hear my personal information of course. After getting Regions on the line, David, Regions customer service representative, explained to him that 234.34 and 91.62 had come out of my account and there was nothing pending and the payment had gone to Enterprise. He (**) said he did not see anything in his system so he could not return my money. They told me to get the bank on the line and I did, they told him the money came out of my account and credited to them and he still didn't believe Regions.
Enterprise is holding my money for an error they caused and want return "My" money even though the bank informed him it was paid to Enterprise. They are asking me to fill out a dispute form which will take around 7-10 days to process. Today is April 14, 2017, they have already held my money for ten days and another ten days is out of the question. Mind you I have used the same debit card each visit to Enterprise. I am being inconvenienced because of their error, and all you can say is I'm sorry. I'm sorry does not pay for my medicine or light bill. If the bank told you the money came back to you, my money should have been reimbursed ASAP. My next step is to consult an attorney because I feel this should not have happen to anyone. Good employees are hard to find these days. Unhappy customer.

I got a rental on 02/20/17 at the location at 15519 Cortez Blvd. Brooksville, FL 34613 due to my vehicle getting work done from a prior accident. The people there seemed to rush me in a rental and when looking at the vehicle I stated there was a mark on the back of the vehicle. The male seemed annoyed that I mentioned it and had me sign a tablet that had the rental agreement. I did not get a printed agreement and he just read out what he thought was important.
After about a week I returned to the same location to return the rental and a different male comes out to help me. The male got on his hands and knees to look at the vehicle and after told me he needed to file a claim because there was damage to the lower right back side of the vehicle. I was completely shocked and upset because I did not get on my hands and knees to look at the lower portion of the vehicle when I got it. They acted like I had no choice and because it wasn't found before that it was for sure my fault.
I then attempted to fight their claim on my insurance but they told me I am out of luck because they have seen this before where a rental company does claims on people and because of the rental agreement there is no way out of it. I now owe $721.15 to Enterprise for damage I did not do. I attempted to speak to Enterprise and at least set up payment because I do not have this much money to put out. I spoke with ** that handles their claims and she stated that if I cannot do the minimum $100 monthly that there is nothing else that can be done. After 30 days pass the balance will be sent to collections even if I am willing to pay the balance only not on their terms. I will never rent from them again.

I WAS LIED TO AND GIVING THE RUNAROUND!!! I was involved in an accident and needed a car so the insurance set me up with the Enterprise in Chapmanville, WV location and I spoke with them on the phone and was informed they had a car so I made my attempt to go get the car. Keep in mind I had to pay someone to take to this location and upon arrival, I was told that they are sorry, they didn't have anything, that it would be closing before they would have something.
Upset as I was I was nice about it and left. Around 4:00 pm they called me and informed me to come on in at 5:30 to pick my car up so I DID and when I arrived I was told that the car had a busted windshield and it would be 24 hours before I could have it. So the next day I called and they told me that they didn't have anything and probably wouldn't and they were so rude and disrespectful melissa especially. So they cost me two I say 2 unnecessary trips and a day of work that I had to miss so I went to hertz and was treated like a customer should be. Thank you, Hertz!!!

My car was damaged at a local car repair shop (ironic, I know). The local shop contacted my Enterprise Branch, Ballard, and notified them that they would pay the bill. The local shop and the branch had a long relationship and both benefited from customers using Enterprise. Three MONTHS after I returned the rental, I got a charge on my credit card for $667!! I did not receive any notices - nothing! Additionally, I have learned that Enterprise has NO motivation to collect on any unpaid 3rd party bills because they will just charge the renter. Also, I learned that Enterprise's policy is to NOT inform the renter that there are problems with payment nor send an invoice, nor receipt, etc. Just to charge the credit card.
Since I signed a contract stating that I was responsible for the car, I cannot refuse the credit card payment. It's Enterprise's policies and ethics that are the problem. Additionally, I have spent 1 MONTH trying to learn what happened and to find out from Enterprise what they can do to try to collect on their own invoice. The manager will do NOTHING within the Enterprise system. He doesn't acknowledge nor apologize for this DEPLORABLE behavior. I will NEVER rent from Enterprise again and I am deeply disappointed in a company that I have used for more than 20 years and thought was "one of the good ones". Wow, was I wrong. Enterprise - please review your policies and focus on your customers!

I usually never take the time to write reviews online but this one is well-deserved. Enterprise needs to start hiring more competent people and less lazy kids. This review is for the Enterprise location at the Planet Dodge Dealer in Miami, FL address 9975 NW 12th Street. We have never had such a bad experience renting a car there... I will never go back there again. First, my husband went through it and then me. As I went to rent a second car from them within a month's time of the first rental, I experienced horrible customer service over and over again.
First, the attendant lied and did not give my son and I accurate information about the car; he made us wait for an hour without giving us any answers to our questions and disregarded us by repeating the same answer over and over again like a broken record; he did not properly communicate and registered my son under my husband's account when they were two completely different claims, insurance companies, and names; he then went forth to charge our account for the first rental balance when it was known that the insurance was covering the whole bill. This was all because it appeared as if we had rented a 2nd car, which was not really a 2nd car because it was under my son's name but since he registered it under my husband's name out of LAZINESS, then it was... After several phone calls with different attendants at different locations and the supposed manager, we got a refund.
As if this wasn't enough clowning, after we returned the cars, he reimbursed the deposit for my son's rental but not for my husband's and per the receipt he gave my husband, (like a snake) he subtracted the balance from our deposit when he knew the insurance was paying for everything, without even communicating with him. We noticed this later that day when we looked at the receipt. Today, 4/7/17, 8 days after the return and 5 phone calls later, we still have yet to receive our deposit of $150, or any other amount for that matter. Never again!

Last April (2016) I rented a car in Houston from Enterprise. I was so pleased with their customer service, I decided this would be my "go to" rental company. I rented a car in Charlotte 3/17-3/22, turned in my car, was given a receipt and went on to continue my vacation. Once home, I check my mail. I HAVE A DAMAGE REPORT ADVISING ME TO CONTACT MY INSURANCE CO... 425.00!!! I am still at a loss??? Are you kidding me... I also received some pictures that I can't really make out from their claims department... There is damage to the ROOF!!! I am so angry. I did not think a company like Enterprise would handle business in such a manner.
My next stop was Tulsa, in Charlotte I was offered a 25% discount (for an airline that I work for) I also asked about in Tulsa. I was told I would have had to do this "when I called the company." What company, I was not sure, but, I was still ok with Enterprise... I then call in Tulsa to extend a day, that was fine, my credit card was charged the addition 15.82 before the call even ended... I later discovered I received an email advising my rental car was due, as if I just drove into the sunset with the rental. I am VERY disappointed with the way the Enterprise at Charlotte airport handles their customers and business.

BEWARE: Previously, I had good experiences with renting cars from the Catonsville, MD location, when my car was being repaired at Antwerpen. However, this last time is a nightmare that won't stop. I was accused of returning a car with a dent in it (I wonder how often that happens). The Enterprise employee put his hand under the area near the front wheel and pushed causing a popping sound. I'm disputing the claim, and during the dispute they have charged my credit card without notifying me $400.00 to date without a repair report from Progressive Insurance Company or Enterprise. NOTICE: always take your time and do a thorough inspection of the car before and when you return it, DO NOT ever drop it off and let them send your receipt, which was suggested to a crowded office; not me, I always wait but was still targeted. I will never accept even a free rental from Enterprise again.

In August, 2016 I rented a vehicle from Enterprise Leasing in Hazelwood, Mo. while my vehicle was being repaired. While pulling out of driveway the check engine light came on. I told my wife and she asked if it was still on. I said no, it went off. She told me to mention it when I returned the vehicle. The light never came back on after that. Three days later when I returned the vehicle I mentioned the guy that the check engine light came on. They never took down any information. Two months later I was getting a bill from Enterprise that there was damage underneath the vehicle to the exhaust. I did not damage this vehicle. Why notify us two months later that the vehicle was damaged. So much for trying to be nice.
Here it is April, 2017 and I am being forced to pay for the damage that I did not cause. I will never report if the check light engine comes on if I ever choose to rent a car. There is no proof that I caused this damage. I have rented from this Enterprise before and have always had problems with them. I would call to reserve a vehicle a week in advance only to find out there was no vehicle available when I went to pick it up at the requested time. One time they upgraded my and wanted to charge extra for the upgrade, pressured me into taking out their insurance and pressured me into paying for their gas when I returned it. The manager did make good by removing the extra charges.
However, when I went to rent again from them I again did not have a vehicle ready and they had to drive me to another Enterprise to pick up a vehicle. Another time we waited almost an hour before a vehicle became available. Each time made us late on leaving according to our schedule. Will never rent from this Enterprise again. Again never report if the check engine light comes on if you don't want to be charged for the damages.

All my information is stored in their system. Supposedly for speedy check in and out. It took me 95 minutes to get the vehicle I had reserved a week prior. I used to rent from them a couple times a month and you would think with this type of frequency use of their company it would even be better. Another issue is if you don't have a actual credit card it makes the process even worse. Some people myself included choose not to have any credit card debt and will use what is called a prepaid card. This keeps from having a huge credit card debt, if the money isn't there you can't get it. Oh and guess what? Cash, coins, gold or any other type of actual MONEY isn't accepted.

On Saturday April 1, at 12:32 P.M., I made a reservation for a rental with Enterprise for my wife. I was informed that they would pick my wife up at 10:00 A.M. Monday. At 10:00 A.M. Monday, no one showed - no one called. At 10:45 A.M. I called the number which I had called to make the reservation, 480 820 1883. They didn't know anything about my reservation. After giving my complete info and the confirmation number, they told me that I had to call the Gilbert office 480 813 4639. The Gilbert office knew nothing about my reservation. After again giving all of my information and the confirmation number, they found it. There was never any offer of apology for this delay.
The person I spoke with said he would come to pick my wife up. In reviewing my front security cameras, an unmarked car pulled up in front of the next door vacant lot at 11:26 A.M. That is a common occurrence for people to pull up and look at the waterfront vacant lot. Around 11:35 my wife noticed the car there, but since no one had come to the door, and the car had no Enterprise markings, she did not think it was Enterprise. At 11:50, (one hour and fifty minutes after the scheduled pick-up time) I called Enterprise again. The person I spoke with this time said he was the Branch Manager. He didn't know about our order, but looked it up and finally said that he thinks someone is on the way to pick my wife up. I asked him to check to be sure.
He called and spoke with the person who was sitting in the car in front of the vacant lot. The manager told me that the man told him he had been knocking on our door for twenty minutes. I told him that the man was lying, that my office is in the room next to the door, that my wife was in the living room, and that my dog goes ballistic when someone comes to the door. I did not mention it, but I also have security cameras that prove he did not come to the door. Afterwards I checked the videos to confirm that the man never got out of the car. This person who claimed to be the branch manager, was not sympathetic to the fact that they had kept my wife waiting for two hours, that the person coming to pick her up and parked next door in front of a vacant lot - not in front of our house - did not get out of the car to come to the door. My wife would not walk out to a strangers car - that is not safe.
As the manager became more defensive, and told me he didn't believe the guy here was lying, I became angry and said that it was "**". That's when I asked to speak to his superior. He said he was the branch manager and why wouldn't I just talk to him. I told him because he was not helping me. I asked several times to give me the name of someone superior to him, the name, position and phone number. He told me he would have someone call me and hung up. Had the initial contact person, at 10:45, after discovering that there was some internal mix up, extended an apology for keeping my wife waiting, that would have been appreciated, and understood. And, had the driver who came to our home been professional enough to get out of the car and come to the door, instead of parking next door - not in front of our house, and expecting someone to come out, I could have forgiven the almost two hour delay.
The attached images from our security cameras show that the Enterprise car is parked next door in front of the vacant lot, where others park when viewing that lot, thinking it may be for sale. But then when the driver lied and said he was knocking on our door for twenty minutes, I had had enough and felt that this complaint needs to be made public. I have never had such bad and rude service, and will never use Enterprise again.

The reservation was made Thursday night. The agent was most polite and thoughtful. She made me feel relief and assured that everything would be alright. She understood the urgency and soothed my frazzled nerves.
The problem began when I called the Enterprise I normally use to request a pick-up which I had failed to do the previous night. The agent assured me that it would be noted on my file. He also advised me to call about half an hour before I needed to be picked up. Approximately mid-day I received a call to inform me that my pick up time may be delayed due to a shortage of cars. Was informed I would called to update me on their progress to procure vehicles.
I waited several hours and did not receive a single call. I decided to call them several times asking about their progress. Finally my last call was the last straw as it was a recording since they were closed!!! It shames me to admit that I actually cried at this point. I am sure that normally I would not be as upset, but since this was a horrific time for me and my family it caused undue stress. I felt slighted. I was angered! I decided to wait until today to let my frustration and aggravation be known. To be honest I am not sure if I will ever use your company ever again. You guys failed me at the worst time!

Rented a vehicle while our SUV was having damage repairs performed. Got a large SUV because we were traveling for the holidays. While on the way home from Indiana to Alabama, blew a tire in the middle of nowhere, Tennessee. Upon looking at the tire, found that it was fairly bald and should have been replaced previously. Called Enterprise and had to wait over two hours on the side of the interstate for someone to come. Was not willing to change the tire myself because was on the side of a busy interstate. Once the tire was changed, I was told to drive to the nearest Airport (Huntsville, AL), about an hour out of our way, to switch out the car. Got a smaller SUV that didn't fit our luggage from the holiday vacation...
A week later when I turn in the new car find out that there is damage to the side that had not been reported/noted on the switch, so now am facing a $1500 charge for damage. I don't even recall walking the car to look for damage because it was late at night and I had just dealt with a blown tire and was trying to get kids home after an extremely long day.

I have been in a rental from Union NJ Enterprise. Since 01-15-2017 I made the reservation. Using my enterprise plus membership card first and foremost. The car Given had some issues with the engine so I had to take the car back. I was given another car which was smaller than the first car but charges remained the same. When I asked why I was told, "Oh Ms. ** we gave you the first car at which was larger at a smaller car rate." NOT TRUE.
So get this the second car, brakes went by time I got to my town which is 1/2 mile away. Called Enterprise in Union, spoke with rental staff who said in a disrespectfully tone, "Ms. ** you need today for roadside service or drive the car back here so we can switch you out." My reply was, "You want me to pay to return your rental to you that zip just got less than a half hour that the brakes aren't working?" I asked, "So if in the mix of driving this car back to you what if a accident occurs? Whose responsibility will it be?" The reply was, "Yours and there is nothing we can do."
So called the1800 # and told the young man Erin what was going on. He said I can take the car to the Hillside NJ branch and let tech look at the car. I did. The tech got in the car, attempted to drive out the lot, got out and said, "There is no way they didn't know this car is ready to go out. There is no brakes." They gave me a car. I might add I was running late for work. Very late to a new job at that. I was told by the Hillside NJ staff when returning car return it to Union. I needed the car a few weeks more so I called Union Enterprise. Spoke with staff was told, "Ok no problem". Gave them a date of 3/23/17 to return car and this was on 03/10/17. There were three separate charges taken out of account I might add.
So it get better, on 03/20/17. I go Tommy house around lunch time which I don't usually do. There was Fedex letter there for me from Enterprise saying that I have a car that should have been returned on 03/03/17 and if it wasn't returned immediately that it would be considered as theft. This was very appalling and shocking news to me. I was so very upset I immediately called Enterprise. They claim they did not have my phone number and that they hadn't spoke with me. I didn't quite understand what was going on since I spoke to them on March 3rd and they took the deposit out of my account on March 3rd as well as thought we had agreed upon my return in your car on March 23rd.
At this point I'm taking the car back to Hillside. I didn't want to have anything to do with Union Enterprise. When I reached out to a manager, I was told he was a regional manager and he would be the last to the top of the command that I can reach out to. I asked was there any way I can make a formal complaint. Do they have complaint forms, I was told "No". I was only given an apology and said, "I am sorry man that this happened.

I spoke with regional manager David ** who in terms was just as rude as his staff in Union NJ I must add. The Hillside staff was very helpful and respectful. By all means. Since the MR was reluctant to consider my complaint at that point said,"Just pay whatever is due" and didn't deal with Union rental office again. Just went through a different branch. The kicker is wow, not only did I get poor rude and disrespectful service. When I tried to make reservations to rent this past weekend I was told they could not take my reservation because there was a note from Union branch on my profile not to rent as a consumer. I felt so violated. Not only that I feel as if perhaps should file lawsuit for defamation. I let the rep know that our call was being recorded prior to speaking of the situation.

WAYNESVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA OFFICE: Nick ** branch manager would not rent me a vehicle that I had reserved in-person on-site, in his presence a few days earlier with Jarred. When I had showed my Master card debit card at reservation time, Jarred said I would need to show my power bill or similar since the card was debit and not a credit card and pay $200 deposit via the debit card. I had paid cash deposit for years with Enterprise (so I can have my $$$ back at time I drop off the car), but this branch does not follow that same procedure. Sooo, I come to rent the car today with branch manager Nick, who promptly tells me that he cannot rent the small pickup truck to me since my card is debit and not credit. I said, "You were right here when Jarred gave me the reservation after I showed him my debit card."
I told Nick I have the power bill on my phone as Jarred had instructed at time of reservation. I told Nick I would waive the Enterprise insurance of $60. He then asked for my insurance card + called my insurance. He then said he can't rent the truck as I do not have full coverage. I said "I could have told you that, my jeep is 14 years old so no, I don't have full coverage." He then said he would rent me a cargo van if I buy their insurance but Nick quickly added I would have to drive 30 minutes to the next town to rent the van from that office which closes in 45 minutes. I summarized: "You won't rent me a truck b/c I don't have a credit card + the only other option is a cargo van which Enterprise will allow for me to use debit to buy enterprise $60 insurance on the van but not for the truck?" He said that was my only option.
I reminded him I needed to move a loveseat purchased at local habitat4humanity store which will charge me storage if I don't pick it up today - the entire reason I rented a pickup truck. I have heard horror stories of enterprise not having the vehicles on-site when and where they are supposed to be. Not wanting to waste 60 minute drive there + back for a cargo van, I told Nick I am pissed and will contact corporate + better business bureau. Overall, the company theme from all the reviews on this site are that, across the USA +beyond, is one of shady policies, unprofessional demeanor, and flat out lies. I will never rent from them again.

I recently rented a vehicle from Enterprise and the experience was better than I expected. I made a reservation the previous day to make sure that I would have no surprises when I did go pick up the vehicle. I originally wanted a sedan just because of cost but once the rep told me the price of the SUV, I was surprised that it was not as expensive as I anticipated. The next day I went to pick up the vehicle and the young man, Jake was very nice and I didn't need all the documents that I was told I needed. He pointed me in the direction to retrieve the car and once there, they didn't have what I originally reserved so they ended up giving me an upgrade at no charge. I was totally impressed and that's why I always rent with Enterprise.

I got a car from them and it was no cleaned or maintained. The check oil light on the dashboard was on after having the car for two hours. There was old food on the passenger side door. The car had scratches and a small dent on the outside. Then when I return the car the guy had all the scratches and dent written down but didn't have anything written about scratches on the roof. So they keep me 350 deposit. I told them that the car had scratches all over it when I got it and you can tell it went from one person right to the next. That's why it was not cleaned or looked over well. I told them when I got the car the guy took 30 seconds walked around the car and handed me the keys. I will never ever go to this place again and if anybody gets a car from them and stuff it wrong when you get it, take pictures on your phone right away or they will try to make you pay for whatever they missed!

My Husband and I were flying in to Chattanooga TN and Driving through GA and FL and flying out of Orlando. We had made Reservations for a car to be picked up on 04/22 and the Reservations had been made on 03/22. We went to pick up our car at Enterprise and the young man behind the counter told me he could not rent to me and handed me a 1800 number to call which I could not get through to after trying several times and then he tried calling also and could not get though.
So here we are several states away from home with no car. I checked with the other rentals the only one who had a car was Avis who was very nice but 3 times the price, but we had no other options but to rent from them. I really think there needs to be a law against them doing that. If they can't rent to you for some reason they should tell you that at the time of reservation Not leaving you stranded. And I have never heard anything from them concerning the problem either.

I have rented from Enterprise often in the past and have never experienced a problem. On this occasion at the West LA-Pico Bundy location the young lady who "helped" me treated me like a criminal. She refused to note the many dents, scrapes, and interior stains on the car claiming that she didn't consider it damage. When I refused the additional insurance she kept asking me how much my deductible was and telling me that they would collect my deductible amount from me if the car was returned damaged.
Damaged? The car was a wreck to begin with! There was not a panel on the car undamaged. Two of the wheels were scraped up from running into curbs and the front seats were badly stained. Needless to say I walked away without renting a car. I called and registered a complaint with Enterprise the next day and was told the district manager would contact me. It has been over a week and no contact so far. Not too surprising to me after my experience. Also very unfortunate since I am a Enterprise loyalty program member, I suppose that will change.

Charging your credit card without authorization. On November 1st Ford dealer in Lexington Park Maryland called to get a rent a car that they were paying for. Enterprise pick me up made me use my ID and my credit card just for incidentals. March 7th I see a $400 charge a $435.35 charge on my American Express card from the rental back in November of 2000 and 16. When calling Enterprise Rent-A-Car to speak to the manager Joy she said she would send me my invoice as to why they charge me. She said the Ford dealer did not make the payment in which I talked to the Ford dealer Charlie and in which they said they did pay Enterprise Rent-A-Car. So I asked for the invoice which says that Ford did not pay for it in which Ford dealer is asking for the same invoice.
I have called the Enterprise Rent-A-Car in Lexington Park every other day asking for invoice which they cannot give me and Joy the manager will not return my calls to explain why I was charged almost $900 on my credit card without my approval and why they cannot find an invoice that they just put on March 7th for $900. Obviously there's an issue there.
They also charged a headlight that was not damaged to a person that damaged the side of the car in which I told them and the police report so that it was not due to the damages which Enterprise should have taken it off but I see that they did not when they knew that that $500 charge had nothing to do with the rent a car so there is showing you how Crooked Enterprises in which I called the corporate office last Friday and they say it could take two weeks before somebody will return my call.

So we originally booked an 'economy' car with the Colorado Springs Enterprise. Upon arrival, we were told there wasn't any economy cars left and we could have their SUV at no extra charge. Too kind. I am still confused as to how they overbooked their economy cars. Colorado Springs seems like a small town and doubt too many people would want a small car to drive around in.
We were taken outside to inspect the SUV with one of their reps, organize insurance and pay for the rental. We were told the total would be $450. As we were quoted around $150, this came as quite a shock. Turns out $30 of this was insurance, $150 was a holding fee which they explained much later and the rest was the total cost of the smaller fees associated with renting the car for three days. Upon reviewing an itemized receipt, which I had to ask for, I can see there's a lot of small charges I have no idea about ('DW', 'PAI' 'SLP', etc.). As well as this, we were charged a fee for having an 'additional driver' (second person driving the car). I have never been charged a fee for this. Ever.
Back to the car, we attempted to drive the SUV out of the parking lot and we just couldn't. We asked if they had any other cars, such as a sedan, and they said they did. We waited about half an hour for the sedan to arrive. While waiting, the staff were chatting about which car to give us. One said that one car they had available would be considered a sackable offense if they gave it to us... The whole place, experience, and customer service was just a mess.
I would have totally booked with Hertz as I usually would if it was closer to where we were staying. A Hertz rental for three days would have literally been half the amount Enterprise billed us for. And it's a bit dodgy not to provide us with an itemized receipt after billing us for an insane amount. Don't book with Enterprise. Ever.

I have rented a vehicle within Enterprise in the time frame 20-26th Feb 2017. On the 15th Feb 2017 I have entered one of the rental offices on Sheppard Airforce Base. I am German. I informed myself about all the options that this company offers. I spoke with one of the employees and I told him that I just wanted to have a cheap vehicle with BASIC insurance for my visiting friends in the mentioned time frame. He confirmed my statement and everything seemed to be all right.
On the 20th Feb 2017 I have entered the office at 2001 Old Jacksboro Hwy, Wichita Falls, TX 76301 accompanied by two friends since the office at Sheppard Airforce Base was closed at that time. After a short conversation with the same employee, I told him that the car would only be driven by my visiting friends from Germany. He asked their drivers license and added both of them as drivers. (No word mentioned that it would cost 10$ PER DRIVER and PER DAY extra!!) Now we were with THREE (03) individuals allowed to drive the car. (Which was not necessary at all!)
I then signed the contract, telling the employee that I have to trust him since I have forgotten my glasses and that my friends were not able to speak English. He friendly pointed his fingers where I had to sign, so I did. While I was on duty, my friends were traveling around. On the 20th Feb 2017, they accidentally ran and violate the toll station on Road 44 north direction Oklahoma City. On their way back they made contact with the toll collector and paid the fee. My friends told me that I will get a citation from the toll company, but when I would show the receipt to the rental company, the toll company would reject the fine.
While talking to my colleagues on duty, I figured out that I have paid way too much for six days renting a vehicle. BASIC insurance in Germany means: Third party liability! That would have been around 13$ /day. Not more, not less! The contract could have been made with only ONE of my friends as the only driver, saving another 20$/day!! The Enterprise employee charged me 19,99$/day + RAP 5,99$/day +10$/day per additional driver!!! Instead of paying 404,14$, I could have payed 220,39$!! Enterprise employee took advantage of me, since I am German and not as familiar as a US citizen with these contracts. Instead offering a good deal, he took advantage of the situation. On the 27th Feb 2017 I then made contact with supervisor at 2001 Old Jacksboro Hwy, Wichita Falls, TX 76301. I explained the situation and I was hoping to get a positive response.
The Supervisor felt SO SORRY for the mishaps and replied that she could not help me since I have signed the contract. With the ticket from PIKEPASS she could not help me either and I have to wait until the company PIKEPASS would have made contact with me. As a German citizen with a citation like this I would get in trouble crossing the border on my next trip to the USA! The Supervisor could have help me out by sending the Toll Receipt to the company when PIKEPASS wanted to retrieve information about the renter! Social medias are a good place to share such OUTSTANDING SERVICE experience with friends all over the world. I will talk to my colleagues back at home to see if it is possible to increase the amount of rental vehicles while oversees for several MONTH paying THOUSANDS of Dollars to Alamo, Enterprise or National.

First and foremost, I created this account just to write this review. I never go online and write customer reviews whatsoever, but my experience cannot go unheard. I do not want to waste any more time associated with this company so I will keep it short. Enterprise car rental agency is by far the worst company in the industry I have ever dealt with. To begin, I was in need of a rental car to pick up family and friends from LA. My family and I comprised of 6 people, therefore I required a vehicle to accommodate at the very minimum 6 people. They complete refused to rent me a vehicle that could seat more than 5 passengers because of me being 24 years of age.
I was upset but understood their redundant policy on age. So instead I went ahead and booked a one way rental for them to pick up at the LAX airport, but to make matters worse they refused to release them the vehicle without a credit card to put a deposit hold. My family and friends were exhausted from their trip and just wanted to come home, but Enterprise and their ridiculous policies decided to not care about the customer and lose our business. Thankfully they were able to finally rent a vehicle with Avis with just a debit card, no credit card required. Enterprise seriously needs to restructure their business model and policies. I will never do business with them again.

Reserved and rented a car from Enterprise in Stockton on Hunter st. for 24 hrs only to take care of local needs. I had been told by the renter that it had 1/4 of a tank and I responded that I will bring it back with the same amount. With that being said he responded and said "no worries because we will reimburse you for what ever you go over". Other co-workers and the manager heard this because she jump in the conversation when we discussed charges to my card, (charge card vs ATM card).
When I left the parking lot the gas gauge had shown way less than a 1/4 tank but my intention was to let it slide and still return it with 1/4 or a needle mark more. I had no reason to fill the tank nor add gas until the need to return it. When I did put in gas and tried to match the 1/4 mark it never got there. I turned on and off the ignition, I also waited for the needle to settle and then proceeded to add more and recheck the gauge using the same procedure. After ** amount of dollars I gave up and got in the car with the intention of rechecking the gas gauge after some time prior to the return. But to my amazement the gauge read 3/4 of a tank but only after getting in and driving off. Apparently the float was stuck and the heavy movement jarred it loose. Who knew that I needed to hang off the car like a "mad gorilla" to shake it loose.
Returned the car the following day, got the same guy that I rented it from and told him that the tank was at 5/8. He said "no worries" and proceeded to get the mileage and gas level but he was stopped on the way out and she (manager) told me that they do not reimburse for gas. When I told her what he promised she replied that he was new and didn't know when I rented it. She still would not honor the agreement. We argued back and forth until she made another promises that I knew instantly was a lie and that she says that gas prices change all the time and she would give me credit for the next time I rent.
You the reader should instantly get this lie as well and if not I'll help you. What she had just said is what would bolster what I was saying and that gas prices change hence the reimbursed valued for that day. She refused to indicate in what form this so called credit would be and how do you place a value on it if not current gas. In addition they have lied so far who is to say that they would actually enter it in the system or is there even a place for it and what if it's years or decades or never to rent from them again. It was obvious she was offering something false just to get me out of there. When I started to ask if the charges to my card was going to happen as promised she lashed out at me again and claimed I was disrespecting the rest of her employees. Her action, answers and attitude was not at all becoming nor acceptable.
When I told her that I was going to make a complaint to Enterprise Corporate she laughed and gave me a look as the saying goes "if looks could kill I would be dead." I asked for a ride home and she refused me until I pressed further on it. Now I know why she laughed at me about the complaint. I called Corporate and turns out they have no complaint department you can complain to, they forward it to the manager or the district manager and should hear from them in 4 to five days and if no answer they will leave a message and in a few days if I do not respond back they will leave email. I have called many times and still no response. It has been 1/11/20017 and 1/12/2017 when this started. It is now 2/28/2017 and no reply in any form. Every time I call I get different lies and a different story. LIES, LIES, LIES and MORE LIES.
I used to rent regularly from this company, AAA, KODAK, DANKA, NASA, personal, vacation etc. You would think they would value you as a customer, but it turns out they only value your wallet and to Hell with customer relations. By the way they own all kinds of rental outlets like Dollar, Alamo, Rent a junk and many many others. Look up Enterprise ratings and other holdings. They have a monopoly on car rental worldwide, again look at their ratings. This is just a taste of what happened. Good luck with this.

Barcelona Airport Enterprise rent a car charged us for damages after we left when damages were not sustained. We have pictures to prove it. I believe they did it because we were flying out and had to return the car before they opened and therefore could not be there for personal verification. They are committing fraud.

I rented a car from Enterprise off of Bethelview Road, it was the weekend special. When I picked it up I realized there was one day that was charged too much, $29.99 instead of $14.99. When I asked about it he told me that since I wasn't returning the car by 9 a.m. on Monday that it was charged as an extra day. I specifically asked him if the 100 miles a day limit pertained to that day and he point blank told me no that it did not have a mileage limit. I asked him if they could tell which days would be driven 100 miles or less and he said they had no way to tell what the mileage was each day. I then asked him if there would be the extra .20 cents per mile charge if I went over the 400 mile limit since they were charging me extra for that other day and he said no.
I wouldn't be so upset about getting the bill back and finding that they indeed did charge me the mileage overage if I hadn't been so specific about asking and being told no it wouldn't happen. When I called to inquire as to why I was told there was a miscommunication. To me, it was a flat out lie, not a miscommunication and I told them so. If the young man didn't know the answer to the questions I was asking, then he should have asked someone and not just lied to me.
This isn't my mistake but I am the one who has to pay for it. They weren't in the least willing to even ask the young man who checked me out or try to straighten it out for me. They only told me there was a miscommunication and they "apologized" for it. I told them not to worry that I wouldn't be using their business anymore. It wouldn't have hurt them one bit to refund my mileage overage since I had been told specifically that I wouldn't be charged for it. He also told me that if I had them fill up the gas tank that it was a lot cheaper than if I did it myself, which I found out later it was about 1/3 more than if I did it. Thankfully, I turned it in with a full tank and didn't have to have that cost added to my bill as well. Lesson learned. Don't trust this Enterprise location.

You guys are ripping people off. I will never, ever, never, never, never rent a car with you. And People I know will never rent car with Enterprise. Over my dead body.

I booked reservations one week earlier. The Jackson, MS Airstream Lane location in Byram, MS. I was given a small, subcompact car with soiled seats. I complained to the ** male rep. He said, "There was nothing we could do about that at this time." So, I demanded another vehicle. He gave me a car without cruise. I told him that I am traveling and would need cruise because of my knee disability. He told me they would get cars later today; he would call me. Later, I called him because it was obvious that he wasn't going to call me. He still insisted that he had nothing. He said he would call before closing; they never did. This location is poorly operated with a total disconnect with the customers they serve. Customers without reservations received better quality equipment than me with a reservation. It is now 6:30 pm; no phone call from Enterprise and no replacement vehicle.

Took my car for some collision service and needed a rental car. The establishment used Enterprise. I was told it would take 20 minutes, 45 minutes later the Enterprise associate arrived with the car. The rental was going through my insurance. I was asked for a $50 security deposit for gas, payable by credit card only. This is code for them wanting my credit card information to have on file. When the associate ran my debit card the account was short. No problem, just transfer money over into the account, as I didn't have another credit card on me. NOPE. Once a card is denied on THEIR system, it can't be reprocessed for 24 hours. They don't accept cash and their computer system won't take the money had transferred into the account for payment... hmmm.
In the meantime, the staff at the Collision Center had left, because it was after 4:30 pm on a Friday. I asked the associate if I could speak to his manager. The manager was very short and stuck to the "Come back in 24 hours" rant. His management of the situation was classic bad customer service. The manager was totally rude. Enterprise must dumpster dive for their managers as far as I can tell. Lucky I was able to find a secretary still at the Collision Center that was able to retrieve my car keys for me. Even though my car wasn't safe to drive, I had no other choice due to risk my life because Enterprise wanted my credit card info, as they obviously really didn't care about getting the $50.

To make a long story short, Enterprise claimed I did damage to a rental car that I did not do. But, to make matters worse, they then sent pictures of a totally different looking car than the one I returned! There was a HUGE scratch on the car that was NOT there when I returned the car (and I had/have a witness). Enterprise also claimed that they took the photo when I dropped off the car, but they did not...rather, the driver drove me in that car to the train station. Perhaps it was their driver? Obviously, I wouldn't dream of renting from Enterprise again, but I am writing this so others won't be taken advantage of!

My son left my wife's brand new iPad in the Enterprise rental car we returned to the Huntsville, AL airport. We returned the next day figuring the iPad was gone for good. The Enterprise team went out of their way to bring the car back to us, it had been in the garage for routine servicing, to help us find the iPad. It took awhile but we managed, with the help of the Enterprise team to find the iPad behind the seat. We were very impressed with the dedication and perseverance. Incidentally the car rental bill was exactly the price we were told upfront with no hidden costs.

I picked the car up in the midst of a blizzard in Abbotsford B.C. There was 1/8 inch of ice on the car windows. There was no snow brush or ice scraper in the car so I had to use my arm to clear the snow and a credit card to scrape the ice. The car had all season radial tires. This IS February Canada people -- snow storms happen. The passenger side wiper blade was broken too. The staff was excellent. Finally Enterprise charged my credit card $16.70 for two toll charges on the Golden Ears Bridge. This is MORE THAN TWICE the cost of the toll. I expect to get charged, and I notified the staff in advance I would be using the bridge; what I did not expect was such a usurious rate.

Put my car in shop and my insurance rented me a car for Enterprise. They did not have the car that they told me I would get, then they gave me a car that had been wrecked. The driver's side passenger door would not open, then left turn signal did not work. They also charged me an extra $10 a day for this car. It smelled like a bathroom, and when I complained they said that as soon as something else comes in they will trade the cars out. I am now on day 4 with this stinky, damaged car. Thank the Lord above the shop just called and said my car was ready. Taking this car back and never renting from them again!!!

This location is a scam. When I originally made my reservation it stated online that I would need to put a $200 deposit down on top of the rental charges that were $188.00 so that meant that the day of the rental I would be charged $388.00. That was not a problem at the time of the rental because I was aware of this prior to taking the vehicle. After I completed my rental contract, I was directed to the Vehicle by Natalie ** (who now I know is the assistant branch manager). Natalie asked as we were in the process of dispatching the vehicle if I would like to purchase the collision damage waiver which was an additional $64.89 aside from the rental cost. I responded, and agreed to the $64.89 additional cost for the damage waiver.
Seven days later when the car was return by my father he was told that the additional cost mentioned above ($64.89) would be charged to the card on file. A few days passed by after the vehicle was returned and I was expecting to see my $200.00 deposit refunded back to my bank account, but it was not there. That is when I decided to call the branch and ask about the deposit. I was told by Jasmine that my deposit would not be returned because the insurance fee was deducted from my deposit. Then I was placed on hold and transferred to Natalie. Natalie repeated what Jasmine said and I responded that is not what I was told the day of the rental. She said she could not do anything about it because my account was already closed.
After this unexpected response I am very upset so I told her I would call her back but, instead I decided I would call Customer Service. I spoke to Jodi. I explained to Jodi my issue and she put in ticket/report and told me I would have to wait for a call from the Vice President. While I wait for the call from the Vice president I decide to go to the branch to speak directly to a manager, which by my surprise was Natalie. We went back and forth from what was said the day of the rental. She kept repeating she had told me the total was $388.00, but in reality I was never told that. I was under the impression and I was repeated that the $200 would be return the my acct as soon as the car was returned. Again with the same response I was told she can not help me because the contract was closed and I should come in tomorrow to speak with the branch rental manager (Marc **) who will be there from 8am-6pm.
I asked her for a copy of my contract and she said she could not give it to me because corporate has it, because it was an electronic contract and she does not have access to it. At this point I have called several phone numbers which include customer service, customer care and the regional office. I am so frustrated that no one can help me with this situation nor give the contact information of the Vice President of this company. What I think is going on here is that there is some kind of scam going on maybe not by the company but by this branch specifically. Nowhere in my receipt which I MYSELF obtained online does it state a deposit was given which is very weird considering that the website states that it is a requirement to rent. So was the $200.00 added to the rental intentionally??
At the time of my reservation my total for the rental itself was $188.00. Why is it a coincidence that the rental charges ended up being $388.00. Anybody that knows basic math knows that $188.00 plus $200.00 equals $388.00. So my total should have been $252.89 and that is with the Collision Damage Waiver fee that was mentioned by Natalie of $64.89. I hope to hear from someone ASAP because this is a very frustrating and unpleasant experience and I will NEVER consider renting from this car rental place again and I will make my experience known to others so they do not go through what I am being put through.
