    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.

    Been members with Enterprise plus since 2010, we use Enterprise only because it's closest to our home. We have always had bad experiences when we go to pick up vehicle. It wouldn't be ready, very dirty or either vehicle not even there on premises. So then we are late getting on the road trying to get to a funeral, fam reunions, etc. 4/2017 We went in and was sent home by some new guy Lucas who claim he couldn't even pull up our names and afterwards we had to go back to our home to get two bill receipts. After renting all this time again it made us late for where we were traveling to, very frustrating. Also we had maximum vehicle and they held almost $400 from our account, but this time we renting same size vehicle through customer service center and deposit is lower, I'm feeling as if we were treated unfairly that day.

    We went back and Evan helped us. First of all he pulled our names right up and things went smooth, he made us feel comfortable and as if we were customers. We are renting again for a reunion and I phoned today and got Lucas on the phone. I changed the pickup date and I asked could he send changes to my email for my records, he say he didn't have a way of doing that. Of course I'm not a quitter so I phone Main Office and spoke with a very nice guy Chris and he changed the date which Lucas supposedly had done and he emailed it to me. Also Lucas never even mentioned my price change. This will be our last rental from Enterprise.

    Been dealing with Enterprise forever, been taken care of at Catonsville & Enterprise on Caton. Rented for personal & work. Rented a Jeep which was a little over what Geico agreed to pay. I ask the guy when I had to have the car back, he replied May 2nd and he gave me a price of 38.00 which was what the cost for a larger car would be for that time. Geico originally called the order in for 4 days, then extended till May 2nd. The man that rented the car to me, said twice. "It is covered until May 2nd. When you bring the car back we will refund your $100.00 deposit." We paid the 138.00. They refunded $61.00 back to my card, spoke with Brian the manager, he could have cared less. He said it was because his rep quoted me for 4 days. Didn't want to hear anything else. The guy clearly knew I was to bring it back May 2nd. He stated that 3 times. He quoted me the wrong amount, rather than address it, Brian chose to blow off a life-long customer over $38.00 misquoted. Really didn't want to write this, however, I felt blown off by the manager Brian.

    I was told by the local rental employee that the damage waiver covers anything, no matter what, and so I bought the $10/day waiver. I was never informed of any "small print" and I'm not sure I was even given a waiver contract. Unfortunately, I had an accident and now, 3 months later, some corporate division is threatening to not cover the accident. I was (very rudely) informed that they were mailing me a bill for $6,000! The company is deceitful and unethical at best. The person I spoke to at the company was hostile and insulting. Don't rent from Enterprise. I wish I hadn't.

    I went to the 10841 Estate Lane Dallas, TX. 75238 (5/8/2017) location to pick up a car that I had reserved through Orbitz.com. It was for a full size. There were 2 people in front of me. A gentleman that's finishing up his reservation and a lady that's waiting. The gentleman finished his reservation and waited for them to bring his car. The lady that was in front of me had a rental for a "compact". They only have a Kia soul and a pickup truck. She didn't want either one as she stated her husband is 65 y/o so it's difficult for him to get in and out of those vehicles. The Enterprise's employee said "Ok" and he'll give her an Altima. I told him, "That could be my car as I had a reservation for a full size". He said, "It's ok, just wait til your turn".

    After he finished with that lady, the gentleman that was in front of both of us haven't even got his car (he waited about 50 minutes just for them to look for his car). So, he had to go look for the other employee. So, it was my turn next. I came to the counter, he brought up my reservation and said he didn't have my car. I told him that's because he just gave my car away to the lady that was in front of me. He was very accommodating to that lady but lacked of interest to my needs. He said he doesn't have a car for me right now and come back tomorrow.

    I'm Asian and I felt discriminated. The worst of all was I waited exactly 55 minutes for him to tell me he doesn't have my car. This is the 2nd time it happened to me. Of course, there won't be a third time. I drove down the road to Budget on Northwest Hwy and was in and out within 10 minutes. I called the next day to asked for the employee for his employee id. Of course, he wouldn't give it to me. I called 1-800-264-6350 and talked to Nat ** and explained to her my complaint. I don't believed it will do anything as there were other reviews that said the same thing about that location.

    I showed up at the Enterprise rental location to pick up my confirmed van rental about 1 1/2 hours early on Friday April 7, 2017. I was told that the Van model I had requested had not been returned and would not be available. But if I would return on Saturday they might have a van but could not guarantee one. Well I had planned to pack the van Friday afternoon and leave on Saturday morning. So I had to make my own alternate rental plans through Avis. Avis sent a van from Denver Airport to Fort Collins and saved my vacation. I do not plan on ever using Enterprise again!!! Ever!!!

    I was charged a $500 deductible for an accident that occurred while renting a car from Enterprise. My rental vehicle was hit in the back by an Allstate driver. Allstate accepted the liability. I was informed by the Allstate adjuster and claims specialists of the liability acceptance and that Enterprise had received the payment for damages. The bad part about this situation is that Enterprise keeps giving me the runaround about the return of my $500 deductible. Every representative in the Damage Recovery Department have told me several different stories. I don't trust any of them. Now I have to file fraudulent charges with my bank. I have used this company for several rentals and to be treated this way as a customer is horrible. I will also reach out to the local news to report my story. It's not fair to consumers that get handled this way.

    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.

    I reserved a truck from Enterprise on April 22nd 2017 Wesley Chapel location. Upon arriving at my schedule time I was told they no longer had a pickup truck available as car are first come first served. Baffled... they confirmed my reservation the day before never once advising me of this new revelation with their company. Why reserved a car/truck if it is not going to be there for you to pick up. After arriving I had to wait 20 minutes just to be helped and I notice a gentlemen leaving in a grey pickup which was more than likely the one I reserved. After checking to see if another location had a pickup I was told no they do not. This really put me in a bad situation as I was moving this day and the pickup was really needed.

    I called and spoke to someone in customer service to complained and was told they should have given you the District Manager number. Not sure why they won't give it to you. But she promise that someone would be in touch with me and I never received a call... (not surprise at all) Fortunately, she was able to locate a truck at the airport. Now, I have to drive 30 minutes out my way to another location. The manager was not concerned at all about how this put me in a bad disposition. I wasn't offer perhaps a day or two rental coupons or anything. It was very disheartening. The worst of the worst...

    Made reservation for pick up at my hotel, in ABQ New Mexico. Wanted to finally see Taos/Santa Fe area in my short stay for business. 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!

    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! They accused us of putting a dent on the hood, which we didn't, they failed to write that down on the vehicle inspection when we first picked up the car smh!

    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.

    Recently, my car has been having mechanical issues. I decided to make a trip home to get it fixed. My grandmother found someone to fix my car. I assumed the car was going to be fixed at the end of the day. Once the mechanic told us the diagnosis of the car, I scheduled for a rental car, so I would have a ride back to school. This was around 10:30 this morning and I scheduled a rental for pickup at 4:30pm. Plenty of time, right? I went to Enterprise to pick up a car and there's nothing for me available. I'm 22 years old, so I couldn't rent a SUV, but that was all they had.

    I called the other Enterprise in town and they just didn't have anything at all. This is ridiculous because now I can't go back to school because I didn't have transportation. This happened more than once and just seemed annoying and ridiculous to even keep trusting this company. I missed two days of school, which is crucial because it's getting closer to finals.

    I was given an upgrade to a more expensive car because they didn't have the compact I had reserved. They ended up billing me for the more expensive vehicle. They also billed me for a full tank of gas when I took the car half full and returned it half full. I spoke to the manager there (Cliff) and he said he would refund me immediately. I asked him to send me an email confirmation with the new receipt and he said he would. I waited all day at 8 pm that evening. I called and made a complaint to the corporate office. The next day a regional manager called and said that it had been refunded.

    After a week of waiting I called my credit card company and they said there was no refund made. I also called Enterprise billing and they said there was no record of a refund being made. They lied to me. The end result was that the corporate office had to call the branch and ask them to refund me. Finally I got an assistant manager (John) to refund me and it went through in a few days. But he was very rude to me on the phone and said that they don't need customers like me and he hung up the phone afterward. I am an e-plus rewards member and I am going to lose all my rewards points but I will never rent from Enterprise again. We have had so many complaints in my company about Enterprise, especially the 300 West Tharpe Street in Tallahassee, FL, that as of today it has been removed from our preferred vendor list for car rentals.

    I rented a vehicle for my boss at the last minute online. So I called to verify (at 3880 NE 39th AVE Gainesville, FL) store to ensure they would be able to honor our request. I spoke with ** and he said to pick up a vehicle at 5:00 pm would not be an issue. My boss called about 4:30 pm with a question and was told he would not have a vehicle (basically, they overbooked). I called and spoke with ** and was told there are people waiting ahead of me who made reservations 24 hours in advance and I should have done mine earlier.

    I called the Enterprise on 3423 SW Williston Rd, Gainesville, FL, and spoke with ** asking if he had a car available. I explained that I had a reservation and was told at the last minute there was not a car available. ** put me on hold for about 3 minutes. Knowing this parking lot is very small I asked what took so long and he replied that he called around. I had been asking for a compact car so I asked about an upgrade and was told there were none. I said, "You have absolutely no cars to rent, huh?" And ** said that there were none.

    We hung up and I called the Enterprise on 410 NW 39th Ave B, Gainesville and spoke with **. I did not explain my story because I felt as though I was being black-balled. All I asked for was a compact car and ** said she did have one and asked how soon we could be there since they would be closing in about 30 minutes. My boss walked in and was out in about 10 minutes. THANK YOU!!! I find it hard to believe that their computer system does not link up to find out who has what car on what lot or even that they would not call to find out how to help their customers.

While I was driving to Stansted airport I had a chip on the windscreen. Was very tiny. They ended up charging me of £500 plus I had penalty charge of £5 for Dart Charge and they get involved and they charged me £70 for it. When I called them they said, "This is our policy.

    I rented a car from Enterprise in Stroudsburg, PA on Rte 611. I used their insurance and had the car fully covered under them. The car was taken without permission or my knowledge and the person driving was arrested for other reasons. I contacted this branch and Jenna the manager was uncooperative and very unhelpful. She told me it was my fault and responsibility the car was stolen even though I reported it to police. She overrode headquarter's orders to give us another car and denied roadside assistance. Lied to headquarters several times as to why she would not help and I ended up losing my job because of this.

    The matter was under investigation and while still under investigation she charged my card $2691 for damages to the car and never notified me of it. She changed the report and headquarters seen this and had to rewrite the correct version. Banned me from every Enterprise in North America because I complained about how rude and nasty she was and lied alongside co-worker Bill. The worst experience and I'm still not done with them because I refuse to have my cc billed for something out of my control. If anyone can help me with this please get in touch with me via email.

    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.

    I picked up a rental car at the Columbus John Glenn International Airport on September 30, 2016 at 10:17 pm. I had a friend whose flight was due in at 12:15 am. 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. I told them about the wet carpet and they provided me with another vehicle. I returned the new rental vehicle on October 4, 2016 and there was no problem at checkout, no mention of other vehicle. 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.

    I've tried to talk to someone at a higher level and been told someone will contact me in 48 hrs. That was over a month ago, nothing. 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. Received a letter from a collection agency today (April 17). I can't believe anyone in their right mind could see that someone had a vehicle a little over 12 hrs and drove it 36 miles and would sign up to pay almost $7500. I'm going to fight Enterprise even if it means getting an attorney to get my record clear and suing Enterprise for the harassment. Just from reading other complaints, seems like they have scam going on. However, this one is way over the top.

    Hi there. Let me tell you about my horrible experience I am in Las Vegas Nevada Enterprise on Craig Road. It's the worse. I showed up to pick up a rental after a car accident. 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.

    Very poor customer service. This particular location was an airport. From the moment I walked in and she asked if I got her message of the car I reserved not being available, I should have left. She continued to tell me for an additional charge I can get a bigger car that is available. Really? Then I go to pay and she says they don't take debit cards. Really, ok. So now what... you're sol! 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. I will never return, neither will my family or friends. Enterprise must clearly be a cousin of United! Awful customer service.

Upgraded to a full size SUV (at no additional cost) with all kinds of premium features, and allowed us to enjoy our travel riding in a sense of luxury.

    I never leave reviews but this deserves one. We hadn't a reservation with Enterprise for a rental car. We called and confirmed. During the confirmation realized that the booking was not from the airport. I wasn't told the reservation couldn't be cancelled. We waited for 1/2 hour for a cab to the rental place - no cars, even for those with reservations and that they could get us one tomorrow but we need the car today to get to our hotel. That sounds why we had a reservation. All sales reps shrugged and said it is spring break. No help. We were stranded. Awful business. We weren't able to get a car - for three times the cost of what we reserved with another company. Outrageous.

    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.

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 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.

    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.

    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!

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).

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.

    This place was terrible. They didn't give the car that I want. They force and pressure me into minivan even though I didn't want it. The reasons that they want me to rent this car was because it had damage and they fail let about it. When I try to exchange the car, they told me that there is damaged which I do. That damage was there before. Furthermore, they was rushing me to get this car or they were not going to give rental for that day.

    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.

Found a hole about the size of a fifty cent piece. I Did Not Damage The Car. I didn't not know I was suppose to get on my knees and look under bumper. The car had just come from getting a oil changed before I got it. How could I damage the under bumper by just driving? If I backed into something wouldn't it be damage to the front visible without getting on your knees.

    We have rented many cars and never had to get on our knees and go under the car. It hurts that Cordova rental car faults me. I can't rest cause I did not damage the car. And on the Enterprise rental paperwork it doesn't have you inspecting the under carriage. You walk around the car not get on the ground. I'm sick of this. I did not damage the car.

    Several members of my family and I have used your company for some time! Recently we suffered a sudden loss of a family member. Due to such, I made a reservation for Friday 3/24/17. 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. Manager told me because there was nothing on report, he couldn't do anything. I'd have to pay for the damage. Will never use Enterprise again. Horrible experience.

This current rental was to have totalled out somewhere around $210 (from airport to a hotel within 30 miles, to a school and back to the airport). We were charged $3,126.21 - and then had to argue the fact that there is NOOOOO way we would have driven that many miles due to the work we do. I was told someone would contact me within 24 hours and mind you this has happened before. They do NOT usually return the call in 24 hours.

    I have had to call back in the past. I don't know if it is specific to a certain location (this recent one was out of Orlando Airport) but I am now going to speak to our booking department to cut Enterprise from our choices and I will continue to educate everyone I know on what a con enterprise they can be.

    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. It must have been a miscommunication between the both staff and yourself."

    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 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 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.

Thanks for leaving me stranded Enterprise! Sad part is we trust this brand name because they normally take care of the customer. Is this even legal?

    We included a car rental from Enterprise on an international flight. We were charged by Travelocity AND again our credit card was billed by Enterprise "as a deposit" for 350.86usd AND 80.76usd. After calling 2 numbers and speaking with 5 employees no one could explain the 80.76 bill. They explained this is their normal operating procedure. We have traveled all over the world and this is the first time using Enterprise. Usually the car rental bills the credit card AFTER the car is returned. Enterprise explained they will credit back "the deposit" when the car is returned??? So they are using our money for 2 weeks without interest? This is the last time we use Enterprise.

    I went to Enterprise in Cocoa, after being told by Florida Farm Bureau to get a rental car. My car was being repaired, and my license was confiscated because I had an accident in Palm Bay, FL. The Enterprise store couldn't pick me up because they did not have a small car for me. I waited several hours with no reply by them. My insurance, Florida Farm Bureau, sent me there. So I got a ride there and asked FOR ANY CAR OR TRUCK.

    After being IGNORED for 40 minutes, a girl could not think, but she kept repeating: "It's against ENTERPRISE RULES. If your driver's license is confiscated, I CAN'T RENT A CAR TO YOU." I said "the police gave me a TICKET which plainly stated that it was equivalent to a driver's license, and I could drive with it for 10 days." And she kept repeating "It's against ENTERPRISE RULES..." I said "can you read the ticket?" And she kept repeating "It's against ENTERPRISE RULES..." I said "can you read the ticket? Are you a robot?" And she kept repeating "It's against ENTERPRISE RULES..." So in conclusion, ENTERPRISE FAILED ME!! They and FLORIDA FARM BUREAU BOTH FAILED ME!!

    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.

After numerous phone calls to the RVC store, all they would state was "The car is on the way", when I called the Lynbrook store, they had no idea about a rental. Then they said "They were on their way". I waited an hour! Still no car, no agent.

    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 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.

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.

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.

    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.

    I have never been able to be in two places at once, but that is what Enterprise was accusing me of. After we had rented a car and turned it in, a day later we flew back to New York, while an Enterprise employee was involved in a serious car accident transporting the car from one location to another. There was a police report dated the same day we were already back home. The employee's name was on that police report. We were only made aware of all this after we received a bill for $13000 and a letter of from Enterprise informing us that we were responsible for all damages to the vehicle. When we called the branch we were met with a person that was so dismissive and so rude that we couldn't believe it.

    We had to contact the police and get a copy of the police report and even after calling back with all of this info the manager at that branch grew even more combative raising her voice and even threatening that if we don't pay we would be "seen in court". After weeks of phone calls even talking to the detective and other police officers, and finally getting to the bottom of it... we get a letter from Enterprise saying that "after careful consideration, we at Enterprise, have decided that we will dismiss all fault of us in the "incident". Really? Stonewalling, intimidation, rudeness, and a complete lack of empathy. When a company can do this and not care... then none of these other comments hold any water.

Well, I can say this: if you are a manager of a location you should be totally aware of what you can tell your customers and how the policies can be explained. Again a HORRIBLE experience and I was not able to rent the vehicle. I will always call customer service or CORPORATE if I need a car again.

    Thanks to the management, My 86 year old mother who lives alone out-of-town spent her birthday weekend with alone because Enterprise Car Rental in Fort Lee, New Jersey, WAITED UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE - Thursday before the Saturday 8 am pickup date - to contact me TO SAY THEY WOULD REQUIRE A $250 CREDIT CARD DEPOSIT on top of the $169 rental confirmation receipt they emailed me when I made the reservation 2 weeks prior. RENTAL JUMPED $169 to $485 in 48 HOURS! I had to jump through hoops to deposit money into my out-of-state bank account in order to pay my credit card on time to post the payment before Saturday morning.

    I had a balance of $458 on the card, plenty more than the $417 and then decided to post another payment of $100 to my credit card just in case. However, the credit card company does not accept 2 payments posted the same day so it posted it on Saturday, except since it was a holiday weekend the deposit did is not to post until this coming Monday. Yes, I am sitting in my bed, and my mother is alone in another city. Shame on them. So, the added charges came to $485 and I was $35 short on the deposit. I said I would reduce the charge and they said they would not run the same credit card again. I offered to pay the difference in cash. They refused. The salesman who tried to be helpful asked the manager to help and the manager refused.

    I have never paid a deposit on a car rental in the past and I will never use them again. I checked with other companies and by this time all rates were over $400 with rental and fees for an economy car and without deposit (!) to rent on the spot anywhere on the holiday now - too much for 2 driving days and 1 day visiting. I spent travel $30 to and from Newark Liberty Airport. So, my 86 year old mother got to be extremely disappointed on her momentous birthday. If I had had just 1 more day notice, I could have gotten the payments submitted in time.

    Do not use Fort Lee Enterprise location - Newark Airport Enterprise, Avis, National and others do not charge deposits. Obviously Fort Lee Enterprise Car Rental doesn't tell you sooner about the deposit so you don't rent from another company that doesn't charge a deposit. This is an unfair practice. The Fort Lee Enterprise Rental Car preposterous deposits run upwards of $1,000! Also note: cars are dirty and if you call and say you are running a few minutes late, they may try to give your car to someone else. That's what they told me (20 mins late - just across GW bridge).

    I have rented from Enterprise several times, and I am going to stop going there because of poor customer service. There is an employee at the Kanawha City location named Kiara ** that is very difficult to work with. The first time I worked with her, she didn't want to stand to check me in, so she went and sat at a desk while I stood and she typed in my information. Once she had all of my information, she realized that the computer she was using wouldn't print, so we had to move to another place she could sit and work and start the whole process over again. She then charge an additional $150 to my credit card even though I rent through a state contract.

    When we went outside to the car, she offered me an economy size even though I had a reservation for full-size vehicle. It was nasty and smelled like smoke. I told her I would not take it unless it was cleaned, and she told me that she wasn't allowed to wash it because of the temperature. It was 52 degrees outside. I spoke with a manager, and he made her wash it. She was rude and exhibited an unprofessional attitude. The cleaning was not done well, so I refused the vehicle and went to a different location.

    With the most recent rental, I started the reservation at another Charleston location only to show up to get my vehicle and hear they were OUT of cars. Then I was forced to go back to the Kanawha City location again. I have found that when you make a reservation with Enterprise, it means nothing. They do not reserve you a car. If someone walks in with no reservation, they will get a car even if it means that a person who had the foresight to make a reservation doesn't get what they reserved, if they get a car at all. It is a poorly run company with shoddily trained employees.

    I called Enterprise in Stillwater, MN to rent a car. I wanted to rent a car because I was to visit my disabled daughter. This Enterprise is not open Saturdays and Sundays (very important days) plus 9.99 a day for weekend rentals. I am arriving to St. Paul Friday night at 8:20 pm. My daughter's friend if picking me up at 8:20 pm (Enterprise in Stillwater is closed at that time). I asked Enterprise if I could pay ahead of time and have my daughter pick up the keys (she is disabled and cannot drive). Enterprise said that a person with a driver's license has to pick up the car. I asked if I could fax my driver's license. They said "no". My daughter lives on 58th Street in Stillwater and Enterprise is on 60th Street. I thought it would be easy to walk over there and pick up a car (but no one will be there). My husband has a business account with Enterprise, which will cancel.

    I called the corporate office and they were no help either. I told the corporate office that an employee of Enterprise in Stillwater should get their "ass" down there on Saturday as a courtesy to a customer. If I were the manager of this Enterprise, I would go above and beyond to do this for a customer, especially due to the circumstances that I can do nothing about. He suggested going to Hudson, WI or Minneapolis, which would be impossible because I do not want to drive by myself on the highway at night, plus there is no way for me to get to Hudson.

    I feel that if the Enterprise in Stillwater on 60th Street is not busy enough to be open on Saturdays and Sundays, they should shut down or make employees work Saturdays and Sundays, plus later on Friday nights. I would think these would be the busiest times to rent a car. I am now extremely frustrated on how my daughter and I will get around in Stillwater, MN. The only other transportation are taxis, which are about $10 for a one-way trip (short distance). I made reservations at the Americinn in Stillwater, which is close to my daughter's apartment, so we could have some fun. I also need to pick up my grandchildren who are 3.75 miles from my daughter's apartment. This is the reason for my review.

    I am extremely disappointed with Enterprise now. The two persons I spoke with had no thought to go above and beyond. Enterprise is supposed to pick up their customers too; the Stillwater, MN Enterprise does not do this. I was told only certain Enterprises do this. I have to be creative now or just spend extra money on taxis. Do not use Enterprise, they are difficult to work with, in my situation, and do nothing above and beyond, which would make their business more profitable.

    I am writing this for my step-daughter, whose mom just passed away on Jan 28th 2017. As A long time platinum member with enterprise, Janice offered to give her points to her step-sister, Tammy who lives in TN so she could drive the 14 hours to come to NJ. Janice really needed Tammy and her 2 young nephews to be there at this sad time, but understood the expense would be a hardship to the family, so was overjoyed that the Enterprise points policy allowed the exchange of ones points between friends and family.

    Janice, is a long time member with Enterprise as her job requires quite a bit of travel and she rented from them on average twice a month up until they recently lost her company's contract because of a host of issues. However, she had far more than enough points to take the burden off her sister and make it more affordable, so the decision was made for her to make the trip after renting a vehicle from the Lexington, TN branch of Enterprise. Using their online system, Tammy signed up and became a member, she was now eligible to receive Janice's points.

    Only one problem. Enterprise's membership points website was down. And remained down. A phone call did nothing but confirm that the system was down and there was nothing they could do until it came back up. The service for Janice's mom was set for the next day, so Tammy rented the vehicle and made the drive. We all thought, when the system finally came up, Enterprise would simply apply Janice's points when Tammy turned the car in a few days later back in Lexington TN. THAT DID NOT HAPPEN.

    After many phone calls, emails, and general run around by their corporate office. The official verdict appears to be "Gee, we are sorry for your loss, but you are screwed on your rental. Once you rent the car, that's it." Even though it is THEIR fault the points system website was down for days, and no one we talked to could manually transfer the points...

    It was days in between email responses, and in the end they did not step up and do the right thing. They kicked the decision back to the Lexington branch and said that the decision was theirs; and they had already stated that because the transaction had already been completed that there was nothing they could do. Isn't it a shame that death does not work around the inconvenient down time of a web server. And shame on a company that treats its customers with so little compassion, let alone a long standing platinum member. Shame on Enterprise.

    I don't ever rent a car on purpose, it is covered by my insurance whenever my car is not drivable due to mechanical or body work and Enterprise is the company of their choice, which I haven't had much complaint about until the last time. First off they knew ahead of time the date and time of drop off for my car. They were to meet me there, take me to the closest branch office and check out a car to me. By the prior arrangements a car was already reserved for me, it was a Chrysler 300, which I was fine with. The day comes, I am at the shop dropping off my car and Enterprise has not arrived yet. I don't know where the closest one to this shop is. I do all the paperwork and they still aren't there. The shop had called to remind them right after I walked in the door and remarked that Enterprise was not outside. I waited and waited and, you get the picture. The shop calls them again, says they will send someone right over.

    Finally, 30 minutes later he pulls up in a minivan, no "sorry" or explanation, but he was very nice and a complete gentleman. We get to the branch, RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER, I could have walked to it and if I had known it was that close I would have, and I figure great, in and out. Wrong, it is very busy inside, but I figured my wait of one and a half hours at the shop would put me in front, wrong again. Both my driver and I had to wait until there was an open check out/in spot before we could start. On the way over I had told him how pleased I was that I was getting a large car because I had to take my dogs to the vet and I had Great Danes. He had told me that pets were not allowed in rentals. That's the first and only time I have ever heard that.

    Anyhow by the time we finally got to me and I finally got my car, he never said a word about the car I was getting so I just assumed that there was no problem and one thing would go right. My car was in the shop getting fixed after being sideswiped by a VW Jetta. The next thing you know someone brings around the car I will be driving for the next week. Guess what it is? Yeah, I think he did it on purpose for two reasons, he didn't want my dogs in their car and figured that they wouldn't fit and for a joke. It wasn't what they had reserved for me. It was a brand new, bright red VW Jetta! Returning it is another horror story for another day.

    I just wanted to share my last experience with this company which was extremely disappointing. After having booked and paid online one of their vehicles, the car was not released and we were given no alternative than to find our way to the business meeting we were heading. At our arrival to the airport, a shuttle took us to their rental point, around 10-15 min from the airport. They had an office at the airport, but it was not meant for people that were not arriving by flight. A kind driver took us there without any major problems. Once in the office, we were received by a surprisingly friendly lady, who later happened to be the manager of the store. That was the only positive thing that we found there.

    At the counter, everything seemed fine. Our booking had been confirmed through an email, we brought all the paperwork need for this agreement and the girl behind the desk was just doing the process. However, even though it was described in their terms and conditions, they refused to accept a proof of address as the required ID check to pay with Debit Card. They conducted a search on one of their databases, which failed without any given reason. No one there cared about providing a solution, nor explained why was this happening. The manager came around to only click the button again and show the red light, with a completely robotic attitude.

    One of my colleagues had a credit card with her, which was also refused as it was not in the name of the main driver, nor was she accepted to be put in the contract in any way, as she had not her driving license with her. At the end, we were not given any solution apart from an apology from the manager, which was completely useless, and a ride back to the terminal. CONCLUSION: Do not trust their written terms and conclusion on their webpage, and try any other company! We solved our situation with Sixt without any problem and in a very efficient way.

    It's a good place to rent a car from. Just wish they had more all wheel drives since I live in the Northwestern states, but service is good. The personnel are kind and very helpful and I would go back again and the store is very nice and clean and so are their rental cars. Keep up the great job.

    My car had been wrecked and my insurance helped pay for a rental. The people at Enterprise came and picked me up! The customer service rep. was a very nice man and got me into a vehicle quickly. When I found the car I wanted to buy I was able to leave the rental at the dealership. I would say I had a great experience!

    I rented a mid-size car and it was to be delivered to my location at 930. I had a meeting at 11. At 945 still no car. At 10, I call them and they said they're running a little behind schedule today but it should be there in the next 15 min. 30 min later still no car. I call again and they started to get rude with me. Long story short, my SSR arrived at 1240. Didn't make the meeting.

    I am a faithful royalty rewards member of Enterprise. I usually rent from the Oviedo Florida local branch (which is excellent!) and I drop the vehicle off in Altamonte Springs Florida (very unprofessional). Over the course of one-two years I've experienced so many issues that enterprise should be throwing a car at me at no cost to keep. I won't rant about past issues with previous rentals BUT I will speak on the most current one. So I rented a Jeep from enterprise in Oviedo with my points. When I get there I'm held up for 2 hours (this is not the first time) and at no fault of their own. Apparently the Oviedo location could not see my points to honor the free days.

    They called the Enterprise hotline and spoke to about 10 different people who had no idea on how to fix the problem. Finally Oviedo they agreed to take car of it. However I had to use the app or go online to make another reservation. I did that and once again the website was giving me an error message, would not recognize any of my credentials, and gave me another message saying the site was under reconstruction. I used the app and it wouldn't recognize my credentials. I called the 1-800# and had to have a rep give me a temporary password. Was able to log in. Oviedo managed to have all my points restored BUT it would require me to log out, again.

    I logged out and logged back in. System wouldn't recognize my credentials, again. Had to call the 1 800#, again. Managed to get back in my account. Points were there. I asked Oviedo if they could honor me a free rental for a month due to all the inconveniences I experienced with Enterprise in the last year. I was told to call corporate. I call corporate and they, of course, kicked it back to Oviedo. Long story short the only thing Oviedo was able to do for me was honor me with a free day. Mind you this is not the first time I've been held in the local location for over an hour after making a reservation.

    I'm still in the rental. The manager at the Oviedo location informed me that they would not charge me and not to worry. I was supposed to return the rental yesterday but heeded to extend it because my little girl was at school sick. I now take the vehicle to the ALTAMONTE SPRINGS FLORIDA location. I specifically asked IF I could extend my rental and how much would it be. I was told $33.00 for another day. I specifically said "ok run my card". The guy did his thing on the computer and told me I was good to go.

    I called the ALTAMONTE SPRINGS FLORIDA location this morning realizing ok I need another day again. A woman, very ratchet and unprofessional, answered the phone. My volume was up because I can barely hear. As I'm explaining to this woman I need an extension she tells me there is no deposit on my account so I would have to pay another $200 deposit. I asked her how is that possible and when did that happen because I was not told that yesterday when I extended the vehicle. She then starts yelling and telling me to stop yelling. I explain my volume is high. I turned the volume down. She still had a very nasty attitude.

    I then asked to speak to a manager or the person I previously dealt with. I hear her talking to the guy who did my rental but she wouldn't put him on the phone. I tell the rep either she can put me on the phone with a supervisor or give me the number to the corporate office if not I'll just have to come down there. She violently tells me "oh please do come down here. I want you to come down here. I dare you". I finally got a chance to speak to him. This guy had the audacity to tell me he took the money out of my deposit as a "courtesy" because he saw I was still in the positive. I NEVER asked him to take the money out of the deposit. I specifically asked to run my card. So now the $143.00 that I was supposed to get back is about $69.00.

    He then tells me, "I can run your card again". Like "Wtf? NO! You CANNOT run my card again because I don't give you permission to. When I did authorize you to run my card YOU decided to take it out of my deposit instead WITHOUT my permission". This location still has not given my the number to their corporate office. I have to drop this vehicle off and request a ride home. I know they are going to be ghetto and tell me sorry no one is available. Enterprsie corporate you owe me and all of your customers that you have inconvenienced with your practices and local offices with unprofessional ghetto customer service. I will be pushing for a rental for a long period of time at no charge. Deleting my account with Enterprise as of today. Highly disgusted!!!

    I had to go to Enterprise - there were only 2 car rentals who offered handicapped rentals. Their selections were no good. I did not have a choice, but they did pick me up and drop me off. The other did not. It was Avis. Sad only 2 places that helped the handicapped when their cars are broken.

    A week prior my husband made a call to Enterprise to book a car for Thursday 19th January 2017. He gave my bank details and our home address, including his DOB. A couple of days later I received a call from Birkenhead Branch asking to speak to my husband. I ask who it was, and was told because ** used to work for them they needed to go through some extra security. I replied by telling him that was my son of the same name, and went to say he hadn't lived here for many years. I gave my husband's name, DOB and address, and asked for adviser to put my number on the reservation as my husband has mental health and gets very distressed and vulnerable, and making a joke the fact the dealer would be able to up sell. I also requested the my husband be picked up from our home address.

    The first hint of lack diligence was the advisor providing me with my son's personal details, a severe breach of confidentiality and DPA. The following day, when I seen my son, I said "guess what happened yesterday" and explained what had happened. On the 19th an ECH employee did in fact pick my husband up and take him to Birkenhead Branch, where he produced his driving licence and filled in paperwork. The following day the car was returned without incident. Once again another car was hired for the following Thursday, as my husband duty is to pick up our grandson from school. This time he used his own bank card. I rang the office sometime in the week and asked if somebody could pick him up at lunch time instead, so we could make more use of the car. I stated once again at home address.

    Thursday 26th January 2017 time was ticking on and my husband became more and more anxious. So he rang Enterprise, who informed him that they had already been out to...(which is my son address). They said they would get somebody to pick him up asap to collect the car. In the meantime my son had rang his dad, saying his wife a lawyer, had been called at work asking where she wanted the car delivered. She flipped and rang my son and to my understanding told the Birkenhead Branch not to hand the car over to my husband. We never thought that much about it, a simple human or system error, and was happy to leave it be. However the allegations got worst from a senior staff member in branch insinuating that the only way they got the details is a fraudulent driving licence and giving false details. This is where it gets even stranger, the car was still released to my husband!!!

    I rang the police for advice, as this is a serious allegation. The Merseyside Police also said, "it sounds like a system error due to both names being the same." I rang Enterprise several times. The staff in the contact center were so helpful, professional and were upset that their standards of customer service were so shockingly low and promised to get to the bottom of it. The following morning I rang the branch again, for answers and the same ludicrous, remarks were being suggested, "but it's OK madam, weren't got going to take any action." I'm sorry but that in itself is not professional. I have a serious neurological condition which is triggered by stress, and this certainly did.

    Eventually I got through to Area manager. She too agreed with me, but couldn't for the love of her work out how my son's wife phone number was on the account. However after speaking to my son's wife and son, they stated that the area manger had CTV footage and were filing a criminal case, as there had been 5 cars hired in my son's details in the last 12 months. The following day once again many many phone calls to various different people, some were very supportive and others seemed to be less understanding or unwilling to discuss the matter. I went with my husband to return the car, and asked he waited outside as he has severe social anxiety and doesn't cope well in some social situations.

    With the key and bank card, I was meet instantly with hostility. Original speaking with junior member of the team who had breached confidentiality to me several times became increasingly rude and defensive. My husband came and shouted as he hurt that his own son would believe he was capable of doing such a thing, and angry that Enterprise aren't trying to put things right. I asked who I believe to be branch manager to show exactly what happened. She said that man over there gave her my son details and driving licence with my son's address on. That is a pretty big acquisition to make, and even though my son's wife had allegedly informed them that the details are fraudulent and not to release the car to my husband she still handed the keys over.

    I noticed CTV, and said "my son's wife had been told that you have CTV. We can resolve this right now, let's check it out." I was told they couldn't. We went into the office myself and two senior members of staff. We all tried our best to work out what had happened. Their theories were my husband wanted to please my son so much and thought he may not be able to hire a car from Enterprise he decided to use his son's. There is no reason whatsoever why he wouldn't be able to hire a car. To forging a licence and putting my son's details on. They reassured me "it's OK, a simple mistake, it's not crime of the century, and your husband can still continue to hire a car each from us until April."

    Now come on, that's just nuts. The situation has divided our family. We aren't allowed to see our grandson. The impact is absolutely huge, given the fact the only reason the car was hired was to pick our grandson up. My daughter no longer wants to go ahead with the baby's christening as both my sons were meant to godparents. The effect on all our health. Enterprise have established that they did have my son's details on the system from when he and his wife hired a car in USA last year, and eventually looking into the matter. Both area managers have been supportive to date. We still don't have 100% definitive apology and explanation to what has happened. But I have been reassured that a full investigation is taking place to ascertain the facts and timeline.

    Out of all the staff in Birkenhead Branch there was only one person who demonstrated professionalism and authenticity and even apologized if she had anything to do with the mix up. A wonderful young women Amy. In fact my husband was touched by genuine positive regard he rang head office to say what a brilliant staff member they have. This needed if ever got this far. From initial phone call and incorrect data being put in (easy mistake when the names are the same). The call from office junior about extra security didn't update the system and breached confidentiality. Accused of committing Identity theft yet still allowed to take an expensive vehicle out and continue to hire for the future. Appalling customer service. No doubt my husband has possibly driven with our grandson in the car uninsured even though he had been upsold further insurance. Lack of due diligence. Staff not checking driving licence properly.

    I spent days having $565 charge removed from my credit card. Chad ** in Lexington, VA office billed to me despite knowing auto insurer responsible and intended to pay. When I questioned, ** represented he gave me credit when he didn't. Causes other Enterprise employees to oppose my credit card dispute even after insurer paid Enterprise! Thereafter, ** lied about agreement to credit. Enterprise employees in corporate office refused to help me, despite my thorough documentation and Enterprise's lack thereof. I prevailed but it took me days and ** refused to come clean, even when evidence of his misrepresentations was incontrovertible. Enterprise also overbilled my rental in excess of $100. I have never before had such an experience with a business or merchant.

    I rented a midsize car from Enterprise, while I was going over the vehicle with the training assistant manager I noticed a small dent on the right front fender, I mentioned this to Victor as I saw another small scratch on the hood. I was told by Victor that they were not concerned with small scratches like on the hood or small dents on the fender because they were under 3" long. I returned the car the following Monday. The Assistant Manager Luis brought the dent to my attention. I told him I showed this to Victor the day I rented the car and what I was told. They would not release me from the rental unless I gave them my insurance policy number which I did.

    I received my invoice from the rental for the 7 day fee with an additional 500.00 dollars charged on my Visa for deductible. I have called Enterprise Corporate and am in the process of filing a formal complaint with them for misleading (lying about their policy). I am requesting my Farmers Insurance to investigate this. I have anxiety and now feeling like I have been taken advantage of by a known corporation that is lacking sincere honest employees. For all I know I was set up to be the scapegoat when I brought this to their attention.

    We had contracted to rent a Toyota, but when we showed up, they had a Ford on deck for us. The car only had a quarter tank of gas, which was noted on the rental agreement. We drove to Dubuque, Iowa from Southington, Connecticut, where we turned the car in with a quarter tank of gas, but they charged for filling the tank at exorbitant per gallon prices. Our protestations were met with rudeness. Renting a Penske truck for our return journey was a much more pleasurable experience.

    Never Rent a Car from Any Rental Car Services at the Eppley airport. Absolute horrible. My father in law tried to rent a car from them. "Enterprise" it turned out to have a flat. Rather than give him a upgraded replacement. They treated him like a criminal even calling the cops on him cause he flipped when they wanted him to pay for the flat. Mind you he didn't even make it to the lights when you leave the rental garage. And of course me and my fiance refuse to even rent a car in Omaha anymore cause they won't take a debit card. We no longer carry credit cards. We were forced to buy another car rather than rent to travel anymore. NON stop hassles we have gotten from all the rental car places here in Omaha. Advise ** them and get your own travel car. These people do not give a ** about anyone but a credit card.

    I had a friendly smiling man that rented me the car. In Louisville, and in Cincinnati OH I dropped it off and it was easy. They had a van to take you to the Airport. In Florida I needed a bigger automobile but I had a rough time getting my card to work. Then she cancelled my already rental, before I got another car so I paid a day for a car I didn't use. Then the manager and Teller that cancelled my paid rental were trying to get me to rent another car. It was unfair. I got upset and quietly left, and had forgotten my things in the car I had rented.
