Your attendant, Jemario, lied to us after asking multiple times for clarification and we were stuck with an outrageous bill. He is dishonest and should absolutely be held accountable as we were very deliberate in our question and he very deliberately lied. I am not happy and will never recommend your company to anyone. Completely unprofessional, unethical, and quite frankly, borders on illegal representation.

Price was right. No line at check-in. No hassles during or after rental. Kia Soul was an excellent vehicle. This was my second E-Z rental. Both experiences were fine. I look forward to more in the future in Orlando and in other cities.

Charged excessive fees. About $200 worth!! E-Z to get in but, is not worth it at all. There was no line at all when I arrive, now I know why. Family Trip was plan in advance. Got there at the airport, agent was nice but the car experience was not.

I arrived at 11:45pm, right before they were closing. I was happy they had no cars, & I was upgraded to a SUV. Perfect for only $30 for 2 days! The car pulled up & was completely drenched from a car wash, and it wasn't dried. The next day it looked like it was in a mud bath! On day 2 I returned the car & was told there was a rock chip in the windshield. Absolutely not from me, & we never did a walk through beforehand. My $200 deposit was pending for 3 weeks & I finally called to see the problem. She apologized for the delay & released the funds w/ no explanation. For the price, I absolutely recommend this place, but bc I was initially blamed for the rock chip it gave me stress for weeks worried I'd get charged for something I didn't do. Also, receiving the car drenched was inappropriate, so I have mixed feelings.

Have rented with E-Z several times at Boston Logan Airport. The Counter Agent (Barbara), remembered me and my wife on the second time we rented. She always greets us with enthusiasm and is very professional. The central car rental facility at Logan is pretty easy to navigate. The bus system to and from the airline terminals is pretty efficient.
I did have a somewhat bad experience arise last month (April 2018) with the vehicle we rented. I immediately brought the matter to the attention of the Manager (Curtis) by email. His email response to me was quick. Curtis’s apologies and action in the matter far exceeded my expectations. He turned a minor negative experience into a good and satisfactory experience. The E-Z team in Boston is professional and customer service focused. Because of them, I’ll absolutely use E-Z Rent-A-Car in the future.

E-Z Rental was great. I was still able to book a car a day before my flight. Upon arrival, I took the shuttle to the rental center. Staff was friendly, did not push products onto me and provided me with various options, which I respectfully declined. The car was clean, gas was full, I annotated minor scratches, and it was "easy in, easy out." I rolled back in 4 days later, dropped the car off, checked the mileage, and the fuel and I was done. I would definitely book through them again.
Thank you for your review.

It took nearly two hours to get through the pick up process, even with a confirmed reservation. Staff was very nice but there were way too many customers than could be served in a timely fashion. By the time I got down to the garage, the car I had reserved was no longer available. I was given a very large Minivan (for one person) and was stuck in Friday rush hour traffic, even though I had scheduled my flight to be able to avoid this. No fun.

Rented a vehicle from the Denver Airport location, the gentleman (Aric) stated he could give us an upgraded vehicle and I asked numerous times would there be a charge for the upgrade. Every time he stated "No, there would not be a charge". I accepted the upgraded vehicle and also the re-fueling option and EZ toll option for the convenience with the rental. When I returned the rental there was a $183.96 charge for the upgrade which I did not agree to. When I called the 800 number they stated I signed the rental agreement agreeing to the upgrade charge. When I tried to call the local 303 number, no one ever answers. Worst rental car company EVER!!!

Disappointed in how badly the vehicle I rented smelled of smoker. I am allergic to cigarettes, so it was a very Sneezy period of time using the vehicle. When I got the vehicle, the windows were down. Once I got away from the airport, I rolled the windows up. Then the stale cigarette smell hit me.

If I could give a negative number review I would. My husband and children flew into LAX and took the shuttle to the E-Z Rent-A-Car Inglewood CA facility. When we got there the line was LONG and winding. We arrived at the facility at around 11:45 am. It appeared that they had 6 workers available to check you in and facilitate the rental, so we weren't too concerned. However, within minutes of waiting in line all of a sudden there were only 2 workers. Where did the other 4 workers go? Who knows.
By now the line was nearly out the door and instead of having workers get us checked in there were numerous employees wandering around, sitting in a front office doing what looked like nothing, and one of the two workers left to check patrons in was giving a customer a tour of the vehicles in the parking lot like a used car salesman. We were in line about 1 hour and 45 minutes. We saw workers leave and come back from what we are guessing was their lunch break. It was ridiculous. By the time we left we were already wishing we'd gone with Enterprise.
Upon returning the car we also had issues. Granted this is not the fault of EZ as our rental car was hit by a bus as it sat parked in the hotel parking lot during our hotel stay. The hotel provided us with detailed information on the bus driver, including her insurance and all other information. When we returned the car we told them what happened and produced the insurance information and witness statements provided by the hotel. Somehow we knew this was going to be a fiasco based on our previous experience with EZ days before.
Sure enough we have been contacted by a collection agency that works for EZ to collect money we owe for the accident. They claim they have no paperwork indicating that the car was hit by a bus driver and that they have no third party insurance information. Thank goodness we insisted they make and give copies of the paperwork to us before we left. Horrible customer service on all accounts. We will never use or recommend E-Z Rent-A-Car.

Rented a car from E-Z Rent-A-Car for the first time from Southwest Airlines from 4/27/2018-4/30/2018 for Denver trip. When I got to the counter at Denver airport, I was asked to sign in couple boxes and the content in the agreement was not even clear. It was very busy as people at the counter were too slow and was 10 at night. She told me to sign in a couple boxes on the pin pad and told me it was just agreeing to the refundable deposit of $200. I did agree to have the collision damage waiver and asked her the total which she said was $73.02 in total.
She said I would get my receipt in email which I never did. Until I was saw the charges of 173.02 in my credit card I called the customer services and she said the Collision Charges were $79.47 in addition to the $73.02 for renting the car. I got my receipt via email as we were talking on the phone. It's not about the money but I feel cheated as things were not clearly stated and Customer Service didn't even care to help me. As the saying goes First Impression is the Last Impression. Disappointed and won't rent it from here again.

Didn't have a full-size Sedan, but got a minivan at the same very low cost. Low cost Arco station next door for low cost refuel before returning the rental. Highly recommend. Note that at LAX, E-Z is not listed among the shuttles to rental cars - it is the same as Advantage.

Not the vehicle I requested, DOWNGRADE. Very dirty inside & outside including mirrors & windows. The car reeked of marijuana. I picked up when dark so I didn't notice the dirtiness. I had to be somewhere quickly when I picked up. Couldn't use when I was meeting with clients due to the smell and dirtiness. Second time I used E-Z Rent-A-Car... first was a good experience. So disappointed in myself for not taking ownership and returning vehicle the following morning but I had a full schedule while I was there and an hour away. I'm there once a month and rent a vehicle. I love your prices but was so disappointed with your company and actually with me. It won't happen again where I let it go. My guest were appalled as well. Be sure your vehicles are clean and smell descent before renting out. Keeps your customers coming back.

Rented a car from Denver 4/19-4/21. Told Micheal I had my own full coverage insure that I did not need yours and he had me initial boxes while he was explaining to me that one was for opting out of the CDW. Another was for declining. I didn’t want their liability insurance and another was for me to not have to fill the gas tank!!! They lied to me. All of them was for everything he said it wasn’t to be for!!! This business lies and will rob you without knowing. I suggest you rent from somewhere else because they have scammed a lot of people for money the same way as me! Told me since I signed for it I had to deal with it. Then the lady was rude as ** and hung up on me! Then when I called back they let me stay on hold for a half hour... If I was any of you looking for a rental I would advise you to not go with them and it’s sad cause any time I come from Ohio to the West Coast I rent them but never again.
Thank you for contacting E-Z Rent A Car. After reviewing your Rental Agreement we found that you signed accepting the optional services of the Collision Damage Waiver for $25.99 a day plus taxes and fees, the Supplemental Liability Insurance for 15.99 per day plus taxes and fees, and the prepaid fuel program for $48.58. When you signed your Agreement you acknowledged that you had the opportunity to read through the Agreement before signing to verify all charges were correct. Because you singed agreeing to all charges, a refund is not applicable. A copy of your agreement has been sent via e-mail. Thank you and have a wonderful day.

I had the worst rental car experience with E-Z Rent-A-Car. I had an early flight and dropped the car off at 6:30 am. There wasn't an attendant or instructions on how to check in the car. There was a key drop box next to the EZ booth, so I dropped the keys there. When I got my final invoice I was charge an extra day. When I called Customer Service they directed said I had to email my dispute. I emailed my flight information and explained the situation that I was charged an extra day in error. I have yet to hear back from this company about my refund.
Also, when I picked up my car the wrong car was in the stall I had on my reservation printout, the keys I was given didn't work for that car. I had to use the lock/unlock fob on the key to find where my car was in the lot because the attendant was nowhere to be found. The E-Z signage was horrible in ABQ, there wasn't an E-Z sign showing which area to return the car to. That's super frustrating when you're trying to drop off the car. Again, no attendant at the front desk to help me. I will never use this company again and will tell everyone I know to avoid them.

I prepaid for my rental which included 9.99 a day for tolls which I didn't know until I got a receipt when I returned the car. It said I owed no more money. The next day, they charged my card $109.22. They said it was for tolls and gas. The woman I spoke to in Denver explained that's what Boston does. BS!

My night started watching each customer ahead of me take 20 minutes to check in. The crook at the desk told me that I would get turned around on 70 if I didn't get an SUV upgrade. "People got turned around last night too." The roads were spotless. And there hadn't been snow for days. He then said if I didn't get their insurance that I would not be covered. I said mine covered me, he said it does not! Lying crook. I go out to get my car... the slot has no car! Finally get a car, ask same guy for help getting the seats to fold down. He said in a sarcastic tone, "midsize car seats don't fold down, should have got the SUV like I told you." I found the release myself and folded the seats down. ABSOLUTE FRAUDULENT CROOKS.

We booked a car from E-Z Rental through Southwest airlines when we booked our plane tickets. We had to change our flight reservation resulting in us having to keep the car an extra day. When I tried to pull up the reservation through Southwest I could not pull it up so I contacted E-Z Rent-A-Car to see about extending my rental for one day which would take it into a 5-day rental. They told me that since it was for 5 days instead of 4 days we would be charged for a week regardless of only needing it for 5 days. I was told that weekly rental is 5 - 7 days. I explained I only need the car for 5 days not 7 to which I was told it is the same price, why am I paying for 2 days I won't be using?
The price of the car went from approx. $92.72 to almost $180 so for one day I was going to be paying almost $100. They then explained that we could call the day we were supposed to return the car and let them know we can't drop off and need to keep one more day which cost us an additional $38.91 not $100. When I asked if they could match the price we got when we reserved the car they told me no that, that was through Southwest and I would have to go through them which I had already tried calling them and they could not pull up my reservation.
This company is a ripoff. On top of that our GPS took us on the Express lanes in Miami FL (I'm from NC) which is a toll road with no toll booths which wound up costing us $61.94 for 2 tolls ($25 admin fee per toll) and $10.94 for the tolls. Maybe instead of just asking do you want to get a SunPass they should explain the charges that will be incurred if you accidentally get on a toll road with no toll booths. I have now gotten 4 charges to my account, two of which I knew about and 2 of which I did not know. We landed at around 12:00 a.m., went to get our car and waited in line for over about an hour with only 2 - 3 people in line in front of us. I will never rent from them again and I will never recommend anyone rent from them. They rip you off and don't take care of you. Very dissatisfied.

I echo the comments that many others have left. I rented a car this past week from the Denver, Colorado location and was simply flabbergasted at the poor customer service, the outright misrepresentations and the fraudulent activity of this company. I am surprised this company is still in business and wish I had checked the reviews before renting from them. I booked a reservation through Priceline. I stood in line at E-Z for over an hour waiting for my vehicle. When I finally got the counter I was asked if I wanted to add any additional services, to which I clearly stated "no." I was asked to initial some boxes and told that the initials were just confirming my rental. I again asked if I was being charged any extra fees and the agent assured me I was not. I relied on that representation (which I twice received) and went on to my vehicle.
I later looked at the receipt and saw that I had been charged a fee for a "roadside assistance program" for each day of my rental. This, with taxes and fees, was an additional $80. I called to dispute this and was told that since I had initialed the box I had already agreed to it and they would not adjust it (again, when I spoke with the agent originally he confirmed twice that I was not being charged any additional fees). I also needed the car for an additional day and asked that I not be charged the roadside assistance fee. The agent told me that he couldn't take off the fee because he had already processed the transaction (even though I had just booked the extra day less than 5 minutes earlier).
The customer agent then proceeded to YELL at me (completely inappropriate). I asked to speak with a manager and was told that no manager was available but that I would receive a return phone call. I of course never received a phone call. When I returned the vehicle I again asked to speak with a manager and she gave me the EXACT same response that I had gotten from the customer service agent earlier, suggesting that they are trained to give these "cookie cutter" responses. She, like the other customer service agent, was rude and condescending. Clearly, their game is to tell at the desk that you aren't being charged any additional fees, rely on the fact that you won't thoroughly read through the document and then have you initial next to boxes agreeing to additional fees.
That way they can later come back and say, "you initialed the box so you agreed to it." This is fraud. To make matters worse, when I got home I discovered that my credit card had been charged a fee of $116. The "roadside assistance" fees were $80, so they AGAIN added another unauthorized fee on top of that. I am aghast at the way I was treated by the employees at this company and their company model is based on fraud, misrepresentation and dishonesty. I will be pursuing legal claims against this company because they should not be able to conduct business in this fashion. I also strongly believe that someone should look into their labor practices to ensure that their non-management employees are paid a fair (at least minimum) wage. When I returned the car I observed that this may not be the case.

I recently rented a vehicle from E-Z Rent-A-Car/Advantage in Atlanta GA. So far I have experienced a lack of response from the management office, poor customer service (employee texting on cell phone causing customer to wait, and no support from 1800# when experiencing issues with vehicle), misfiling of insurance claim despite a known issue being the fault of the facility, and false gas charges despite customer decline of FPO and having brought the car back completely full with gas. I have filed claims with the company for multiple issues and have not received any response on these matters. The quality of service and support is severely lacking with this company. I would like someone from leadership at E-Z Rent-A-Car to contact me about this matter. In the meantime you will be pursuing the issue with my insurance and credit card company.

We made a reservation with E-Z Rental back in August for a vacation this last March. Picked the vehicle we wanted, everything should have been good to go. Upon arriving to the desk at MCO, we immediately felt bullied into renting another vehicle (a van) and was told that the vehicle we had rented wasn't going to work for us even when I insisted it would and continuously tried to get us to rent the van and pay a ton more. After going back and forth for many minutes, we agreed to take the van at a "discounted" rate. I told him that I still wanted to see the inside of the Toyota Sequoia and he said they would be able to take care of that for me, except when I went up to get the rental, that vehicle wasn't even available (how convenient...) I felt taken advantage of.
Additionally, I have now received a bill almost 2 weeks later to pay for tolls throughout our time in Florida. I called E-Z and they told me there was nothing they could do and passed me off to some "tolling company". I talked to them and they said I was sent a charge because we used the "sun pass" that was in the car. We declined this option at the desk when we processed the paperwork for this rental and paid every toll. E-Z rental is an absolute joke, they take advantage of people, nickel and dime people and have a low moral compass as a company. I will never rent a car here again, will tell everyone I know and will blast this company over and over again through social media until they are out of business. But I guess they'll just say "good luck".

Rented a car on their website and paid in advance. When I got to the counter at Orlando airport, Ahmad ** tried to upsell me on everything. It was very busy as spring break was just kicking off, noisy at the counter, and his English was difficult to understand. He told me to sign in a couple boxes on the pin pad and told me it was just agreeing to the refundable deposit of $200. I didn’t agree to any additional charges and sure didn’t need the collision damage waiver. He sent me with my receipt which didn’t have the box checked for insurance but when I got my receipt via email it showed one of my initials agreeing to the CDW insurance (@ $25 per day)!!!
Super shady company!!! Lesson learned not to trust and not to sign on a pin pad without knowing what the initials actually go to. I verbally told him I didn’t want extra insurance. I was lied to and when I talked to customer service they just kept telling me I agreed to it because they have the signed contract. I sent a picture of my receipt to them and waiting to hear back. The counter people must earn a hefty commission for upselling the insurance and “preselling” a tank of gas. Ahmad tried to tell me that I should prepay for a tank of gas because all of the gas stations around the airport are over $5 a gallon and if they have to fill up the tank they charge $9 a gallon. Bottom line... terrible company to do business with. Wish I would have read the reviews.

I booked through Expedia and told there would be no extra charges. When I showed up to pick up the car, I was charged $25 per day extra. There was nothing I could do at this point because I had already been charged through Expedia and did not want to pay again at another rental car place. I figured I would call and complain when I got home. They did not care. I did not have cash for 2 $1.00 tolls while in Florida. There was no attendant available when I dropped off the car to talk to them about this. A month after I returned home, I was charged $26.00 for the $2.00 worth of tolls. I called and again, I was given the runaround only to be told they are not refunding the charges. I will never use them again. Horrible, horrible, horrible!!!

If failure to do so the customer will be charged the amount of the toll violation(s) plus a $25.00 admin fee per violation. Our optional services are offered to the customer to help them travel at ease. We hope that you will allow us the opportunity to serve you again in the near future.

This was not a good company. We were picked up in a small 6 person van that took a while to arrive. The luggage was thrown in the back of the seats. The driver drove crazy. When arrived at the pickup, there were two people working and two guys in the back just sitting around. The line was almost out the door and this was at 11pm at night, I'd hate to see this in the afternoon. It literally took over an hour to reach the counter, we were checked in and given a piece of paper and told our car was two rows back and to please record any damage and give the sheet to the guy at the gate. It was pitch black and no lighting at all. Forget about being able to review the car, just trying to figure out the car in general in pitch black was a joke. The guard at the gate literally used one of the cars to block the entrance instead of gate arm, he got in the car and backed it up so we could get out and then pulled it back when we drove through.
The car was dirty and the maintenance light was on. When we returned the car, a guy took the keys and said, "You're done. You'll get an email receipt." He rushed us out of there quickly. I was so rushed I forgot my expensive ski jacket in the back seat. I called and reported it while on the shuttle to the airport. I was given a ticket number and told someone would call me back. Of course no one did so I tried for two days to get ahold of someone, finally day three I got someone who told me that the ticket was closed because nothing was located. He said he would open it again but if I didn't receive a call in 24 hours then it was never found. I replied, "Of course not, I guess my jacket is gone." And he said, "I guess so." This place is so shady and not worth trying to save an extra couple bucks.
Updated on 05/08/2018: The entire experience with this company was horrible. I returned a rental car in Denver, CO on 3/18/2018. I received a bill from a company called Viking Billing Service on 5/7/2018 stating I owe 101.40 for unpaid tolls. The tolls totaled 26.40 but they added 75.00 in fees to this. This is total BS, first I was never notified of owing anything at all on this car and they actually should have given me money back after the horrible service I received. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

E-Z Rent-A-Car Orlando Florida, is by far the worst rental company I have ever used. My husband and I inquired about the weekly rate which was $70, we then said to the gentleman by the name of Muhammed, that we would like to go ahead and rent the vehicle for 2 weeks. He then proceeds to ask the normal questions like, “Would you be going through tolls,” which we said yes. And then asked do we require insurance we then said that we were covered, so no. He then types on the computer asking for a credit card which my husband hands to him thinking he was going to take off a couple of dollars. He tries swiping the card for $847.00 without informing us of his intentions, so the card declines, being a ** our card had a limit to avoid fraudulent transactions.
He then asks me for my credit card, so I proceed to give it to him thinking that my husband’s card was faulty. He then swipes my card for $500 telling me that I would receive $200 back when I return the vehicle as this was a deposit. At that point I said to the gentleman, “Please cancel the transaction.” His words were I would only receive a refund in 2-3 working days. Keep in mind he had just taken off $500 and we tired from our flight from South Africa, so I said to my husband, “Let’s just take the vehicle for now and let them know if we do decide to keep it for the additional days.” Only to find that they charged my husband the additional $347.
We had no choice but to keep the vehicle for the 2 weeks. Upon the return of the vehicle we were assured we would receive our $200 refund. We are still waiting, but that’s not all. I checked my bank statement, they took off another $120, we returned back to SA on the 02 February, these transactions were taken off the 28th Feb so in total, they have charged us for the vehicle $960 for a standard vehicle for 2 weeks.

We rented a car from the Denver location 2/15/18-2/19/18. We originally booked an economy car through Orbitz but upon arrival the staff member serving us offered an upgrade to a small SUV. Upon seeing my husband's military ID the staff member stated, "Let's get you an upgraded vehicle as a thank you for your military service." We were charged an upgrade fee that was never mentioned and never on the electronic documents we were asked to sign. My husband never feels entitled to or requests perks and discounts related to his active duty but we do accept these things when offered.
It is disheartening that we were charged for an upgrade that we never asked for and were offered because he is a soldier. I have called the customer service number to discuss this three separate times. The first time I was informed that a manager from the Denver location would contact me by the end of the day. Two days later I had not been contacted and called back. On the second call I was informed that the notes in the system stated that I had spoken to a manager. Since I had not I was informed that a manager would contact me within 24 hours.
After 48 hours I had not been contacted so I called again. On the third call I was informed that they could not share information with me because the car was rented in my husband's name and not mine. My husband is now gone for his job and unable to call. I have power of attorney paperwork that I offered to provide and as told this would make no difference, although, it does.
I asked to speak with a supervisor and was placed on hold. When the customer service rep returned to the phone I was told a supervisor would have to call me back by the end of the day. I told the representative that I did not trust I would be called back and would hold. After a brief hold the customer service rep informed me that he could not keep me on hold and assured I would be contacted by the end of the day which has not happened. I am very unhappy with the level of customer service on all levels and do not believe this company, especially the Denver location, is at all concerned with the integrity of their business. I am extremely disappointed and frustrated.

I rented a car at Miami Airport 2 days from Feb. 19, 2018. I was required $200 of deposit but the person there told me “this is just deposit and I will not be charged when you return the car”. I returned the car with no accident, with full gas, a hour before due time. When I return the car, the person there checked out everything and I was told “you are all set”. In fact, they charged me only the fee of the rent at that time. However, a week after, Feb, 26th, they charged my card $200 without any explanation. If you charged the deposit on 19th and returned it a week after, that readily understandable. But, why you charge deposit a week after.
Actually, I felt like not being able to trust the person from a beginning. For example, he recommended me more expensive car than I reserved. It took long time until I can say NO. Also, I paid for load-safe, but I said as I am a AAA member, I do not think I need it. But he said there are not such thing like AAA service in Florida. Is that true? Also, he said I should better to pay toll load beforehand ($10 a day). Otherwise, the city will fine me $250 a day. I do not think it true. But these are OK, I signed it because I wanted to save time to argue with him. But I believe that he should return the deposit. I need you to investigate this.

I was taking a family trip to Colorado and picking up my car in Denver and made my purchase online. I was expecting a Camry full size sedan to something similar to that because of the trunk space and efficiency in gas. After 20-30 of waiting to speak with a representative, I was told that they didn't have a Camry, but a different Chevrolet model that wasn't comparable to a Camry.
The rep then tried to upsell a 4x4 claiming that I "needed it for this weather" and which would have been over $300. After explaining my displeasure, he finally gave me reduced rate, but only if I purchased insurance which was more than the actual rental. He claimed that the insurance was necessary because a blizzard was coming and I needed a 4x4 SUV and also claimed that Colorado was a no fault state and that my car insurance wouldn't cover it. Both claims were fabrications.
At this time, we are 45-60 minutes into this process and my family is outside waiting. My cost went from $146 to over double that amount plus a $200 security deposit and I had no choice because we needed a vehicle. I firmly that these tactics are unethical based on lies. When I called EZ Car customer service, they said that management would call me back to discuss the issue. I received no call back. When I called back a few days after my first call, I was told that there was nothing that could be done without any offer of resolution. I am requesting that EZ Car refund these insurance costs to resolve this issue. I will not be using them again and if no resolution is offered, I will also be going to the BBB. This cannot be tolerated.

We rented a car online at Advantage Rent a Car. Got off our plane at DFW and went to pick up the car. Was told cars were not available, and the wait would be 20 minutes which turned out to be 30. In a hurry to get a car - late to a meeting - my husband went to the next company – E-Z Rent-A-Car. We got keys and jumped in the car and drove. When we returned the car 1 and 1/2 days later and the attendant claimed that we were at fault for a small dent on the door. We absolutely are not at fault, this was pre-existing and our bad for not insisting on a walk around prior to accepting the vehicle. We now have a bill for almost $1000 for this. Be VERY careful with this really awful outfit. Better yet. Rent your car elsewhere.

THIS PLACE IS A TOTAL BAIT AND SWITCH OPERATION. A better name for this place would be Sleaz-E Rental Car, if I could give 0 stars I would. In planning a ski trip in the Colorado Rockies, I made a reservation for a premium SUV at $109/day. Prior to making the reservation online, I called their phone number to confirm that the vehicle I was renting would have 4WD or four wheel steering which is required by law when driving in snow conditions in the Rockies. I was told by the call center that all their premium SUVs at the Denver location had that. I then made the reservation online. Then when I arrived with my wife and two young kids, I am informed that the reservation I made did not guarantee a 4WD/4WS vehicle and the only thing they could offer me that had that would cost about 3 times as much.
So there you are, sitting there with your family, it's starting to snow hard and you're supposed to drive up to the ski resort that evening to start your ski vacation the next day. You are sitting in their building without a car, other agencies are outside their gates and down the road quite a ways, what are you going to do, walk around with your family and luggage in a snowstorm to see if another company MIGHT have a better price. Yeah, they have you by the "you know whats" and they know it. So I had to take what they offered; I figured I might be able to dispute it with my credit card company but they told me since I accepted what they offered I could not. Just for kicks, I called again when I got back and asked about the premium 4WD/4WS vehicle, they guaranteed it again. This time I have it recorded, thinking about taking them to small claims court.

I initially reserved a full size car at Denver Airport. Once I arrived to pick it up, I was told that E-Z won't rent me that type of car since I am headed to Aspen and there was expected to be a bit of snow. They claimed a full size car won't be able to handle the snow well and only allowed me to rent a 4 wheel drive car for 2.5 times the price I reserved!! I was not happy with the rate I received, especially since other car rental companies were offering better deals, but ended up taking their offer anyways since I had my friend waiting for me in downtown Denver and I wanted to leave the airport asap.
When we started driving in the snow (not even an inch of snow on the ground) the car started losing traction, we were sliding sideways and the brakes weren't functioning well, which put us in serious risk of getting in an accident. Miraculously we didn't. In addition, it was snowing again the day we returned the car, this time 3-4 inches. The car got stuck in the middle of the highway few times and we had to get TOWED TWICE!! We were again extremely lucky we did not get in a bad accident, as we were blocking one of the lanes on the highway from Vail to Denver at a low visibility day. We called E-Z to inform them that the car was stuck in the middle of the highway and that we needed help, they said they would call us right back and never did! The only good experience I've had with E-Z Rent-A-Car was with the staff at the pickup location. They were extremely helpful and friendly the day I picked up the car.

If I could give zero stars I would. Rented a car from them in Denver. I specifically asked for a four wheel drive vehicle and was lead to believe that is what I reserved. Over the phone I reserved a Toyota RAV4 with four wheel drive as I was traveling up into the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. I get to the counter located near the airport to pick up the car I had reserved months ago with them. I was told they didn't have the car in stock that I reserved and that any car they had in that class (mid-size SUV) doesn't have four wheel drive, which over the phone when I reserved it I was not told that. Meanwhile any other Mid-size SUV that was comparable wasn't available. They charged me 250.00 to upgrade to the next class of SUVs. I called right when we left and explained that this was their mistake and that they knew they didn't have the vehicle I reserved before I even got there and knew I would have to upgrade.
So basically they falsely advertise that they have the Toyota RAV4 with four wheel drive in stock even though they didn't and I was lead to believe that they did have it in stock. They falsely advertise and it isn't right and needs to be addressed. This is the second time this has happened to my family and they should reimburse us for both times.

I was so confused because I felt had already paid for that. I also needed to get back to my family. But they insisted I didn’t. When I got home and checked my records, I found out that I did.

We rented from the Dallas/Ft. Worth airport E-Z rental. When we arrived to pick up our rental car we were offered to receive prepaid gas at 2.19 a gallon.

We actually were being a little overcharged because there was still a quarter tank of gas left but it really did save time. When we arrived home and received our email with the charges, we were charged with a fee of 8.99 per gallon for a total charge of 149.65 to fill up a car that already had a quarter tank of gas.

The clerk not paying attention had taken a woman information and put it on my rental car. Yet ran my major credit card under her information. Now I have rented a car where I had to fine line my contract. Once you are there so long you can't wait to hear them say initial and sign. I did that without looking fine line to see what name and address that was on my contract. My name is Kim and the person name they put on the contract says Kimberly. I am Kim **. The renter and that person is Kimberly ** same last name, same date of birth month, different date but same year.
I want y'all to be cautious because it has now taken two years to get this what should have been a mistake turn into identity situation between two people at their mistakes. Loss of my job, shameful, stress out, the back and forth to courts. It all fell in my favor with the court in Miami Dade County and I want all of y'all to read even your name and info on the contract please. This has really devastated me and my family. This was cleared up January 23rd 2018 by the courts and in my favor.

I had an awful experience with E-Z Rent-A-Car in Fort Mayers, Florida. I booked through holiday cars and paid in full. When I finally reached their rental place, which is not at the airport, and you have to take a shuttle, the person at the counter was eating at work. Without explaining anything about the prompts on the small screen of the credit card machine, he asked me to say no. Once I got the car it was filthy and there was no walkaround for damages.
Here comes the kicker, 4-5 weeks after returning back home I saw a charge for $204 on my credit card from this car company. I called them and they told me that it was for tolls. I was expecting to pay the tolls but not this much. I asked for the breakdown of tolls. Shocked to learned that the actual toll charges were 29.57 cents and they had charged $175 in admin fees. $25 per day. And not for the days I went through tolls but for each day the car was rented. What is this but fraud in broad daylight. See attached image for charges.
Thank you for contacting E-Z and Advantage Rent-A-Car. With the E-Z Toll program customer may use the express lanes an unlimited number of times during their rental, and we will handle processing and reconciliation for toll payments plus the cost of the toll(s). When the option is declined the customer is responsible to make the toll payment(s) during the time of their rental period. If failure to do so the customer will be charged the amount of the toll violation(s) plus a $25.00 admin fee per day. Our optional services are offered to the customer to help them travel at ease. We hope that you will allow us the opportunity to serve you again in the near future.

I don't agree at all with their contract. I made agreement with E-Z car rental company previously. Price suppose to be the same as the contract paid on December 22. Secondly for the extension we have only one driver. So you cannot charge for second driver. GO AWAY FROM THIS CROOK COMPANY. Please correct contract on the same basis as the first one... then I will pay my bill. See 1st contract and 2nd contract WITH THE SAME CAR. WE DON'T RETURN THE CAR FOR TAKE ANOTHER ONE.
You are crook. You abuse of people charging 5 times the week rental for the same car which was not returned!!! You even charge for 2 drivers!!! Who are the 2 drivers? Give me names??? You have been charging illegally the credit card in France when you set up the bill to Alain **.

Charged me $101 for an additional driver that did not exist. I tried to fight it with customer service, but they were rude and insisted I signed for it. I made a fraud claim with my credit card company in order to get a copy of this supposed agreement, and there is no signature on it approving an additional driver. I went on their website to confirm the policy on adding additional drivers in the state of Texas and it says:
"ADDITIONAL DRIVERS. Additional authorized operators can be added, for an additional charge, at the time of rental or at any rental location. The primary renter and each Additional Authorized Operator must be present to sign the rental agreement and must meet normal rental qualifications, such as showing a valid driver license, and meeting all age requirements." They are in clear violation of their policy but still refused my refund. I tried escalating the problem... they gave me ticket numbers but never responded. I am going to report them to the BBB because this illegal.
Thank you for contacting Advantage Rent A Car. After further investigation and reviewing your Rental Agreement we found that you signed accepting the optional service of the Additional Driver fee for $12.99 a day plus taxes and fees. When you signed your Agreement you acknowledged that you had the opportunity to read through the Agreement before signing to verify all charges were correct. We have to signatures on the rentals agreement. One for Dustin Venz, and another one under the name of Jasime Venz. However, since we value your fee back we have refunded you in the amount of $101.54 as a sign of good faith. Please allow up to 21 business days for this amount to reflect onto the card on file.

I just had an absolutely awful experience with an E-Z Rent-A-Car rental location at the SeaTac airport (Seattle) location at around 9:00 PM on 1/11, and am writing this, so I can speak to a higher level executive who can explain me what just happened. We could not get the name of the rep at the counter (she was the only one), since she refused to give it to us, because she knew she was rude, belligerent, and was way out of line.
We had a reservation for a full-size car for 3 days. Upon getting there, we were asked if we intended to take the car outside of Washington - I had never been asked that before, so I paused and said no we don’t intend to, but what would be the cost to change it if we do decide to visit our relatives in BC (since we were in town for 3 days). She said you can’t do that as I’m a “local” (I had a WA driver’s license, but I recently moved to CA). I said that’s fine, as I don’t really know if we’d had time to go. She said if we can move the reservation to my wife’s name, as she has a CA license and that way if we want to go to BC we could.
She said she’ll have to cancel and book a new reservation and it’ll cost 3 dollars/day and I said sure. She cancelled our existing reservation and then looks at me and says that the quote she gave me for 3 dollars increase was for a full-size car and she doesn’t have any. She has an SUV, but for that were looking at a 24$ increase/day (total of 66ish dollars).
I told her that’s not something I signed up for. She said since she already cancelled, there was no way to retrieve the reservation, so the only way to do it is to pay 60$ more (for 3 days) and book this new car. I told her that’s unacceptable, and this is really bad customer experience, since I wasn’t even planning to go to BC and at this point, we'd just like to get on with our initial reservation for me. She said she needs to talk to her manager, and stepped out from the counter in the back. A few moments later, she comes back and says she talked to our manager and they can’t rent a car to us at all- any car! My wife and I were fuming at this point, as we had no idea what’s going on - our reservation was cancelled and we were told we can’t be rented any car at all! We demanded we wanted to speak with a manager, and the employee connected us over the phone.
The manager, who also didn’t give us his name (had what looked like a Mexican accent) told us that we can’t be rented the car because of company policy, and when I asked what policy, he replied “Company Policy”, and refused to say anything else. He was rude and said he cannot talk to us right now, as he’s “out somewhere” and that his decision was final. Upon hanging up the phone, your rep said we need to leave or she'll call the cops, and she hoped there are better humans in the world than us. This was said to us completely unprovoked! If you have recordings at that location, please look at them. I wish I had recorded this.
This left us without a rental car at 10:00 PM on Seattle-Tacoma International airport. I want you all to know that we Ubered back to our hotel and will be looking for a different rental company tomorrow, as almost everyone was out of vehicles that late. This is unacceptable on a lot of levels, as we are now stranded, without any vehicle for the weekend, a weekend that was supposed to be fun and relaxing. I would like to speak with whoever runs the show in the pacific northwest for your company, as this was a disgusting experience that needs root cause and compensation for all the time that wasted and emotional stress that it caused.

It was my first time renting with EZ Car Rental. It was a good deal and I paid in full for my rental before getting there; assuming I'd be guaranteed a car when I arrive. My cousin and I got there at midnight on December 20th, 2017, only to be disappointed by the very long line that we had to wait in. There was only one person working and he decided it was ok to hold up the line for one difficult woman who didn't make a reservation and refused to give him a credit card for her rental. Although I did feel bad for the man because the lady seemed a bit crazy, he allowed her to make some phone calls so someone can transfer money into her card, holding up the line. Everyone was tired and frustrated. She eventually came back and everything went through and he was able to take two more groups until he decided to tell everyone else that was waiting in line that they ran out of cars and he told everyone to come back at 7 am.
It was 2 am now, we waited for 2 hours of complete BS. I then went up to the counter and kindly told the worker I paid in full and he rudely told me, "Like I said, we ran out of cars, you can come back at 7 am." So then I told him that our original plan was to leave Vegas at 6 am to Cali and he, again, rudely told me to go find another rental place and walked away. EZ Car Rental needs to work on their customer service and keep track of their inventory.

The person who set me up with my car made it clear it was impossible to drive in the Denver-Colorado Springs area without hitting toll roads. He told us there is no way to pay these tolls manually as you go through them.

Turns out, there are three toll roads in the area but these are easily avoided with little or no delay by using Google Maps.

My husband and I needed to come to Houston for a second medical opinion recently, and we used EZ Car Rental. There wasn't a rental desk by that name at the airport and no one at any of the other desks, so we went outside to see if there might be a shuttle. After 25 minutes of waiting around outside, I called the only number that was given on the paperwork which was an 800 number to a general office somewhere, not the number for the local office where my reservation was.
After another 15 minutes of waiting on hold, someone finally picked up the line and listened to how dissatisfied I was. She then began to read from a script which was flawed in that she kept telling me to go back into the airport to the rental desk, which was still not there. She couldn't seem to divest herself from this script and kept saying the same thing over and over again. That was all the help she could manage. It was infuriating. I hung up.
So after 40 minutes of completely wasted time, me and my husband the CANCER PATIENT decided to drag our luggage across two large parking lots and a very busy road to the office. Once inside we encountered a toad of a person sitting behind the desk. I told him what we had just gone through and he didn't say a word. He just brought up my reservation and pointed us outside to pick up the car. He was utterly useless and couldn't have cared less. Apparently all you need to get that job is a pulse. It was a horrible experience and there is absolutely no way I'll ever do business with EZ Car Rental again. I've already let my friends and family know to steer clear of that place. At least the car didn't break down.

This was the worst car rental experience I have ever had. The rental office was hard to find, and the wait was really long. Staff repeated what I had already filled out online. Advantage customers were taken care of first. Car return was not guided by any signs about where to leave the car.

It was odd adjusting to the low number of staff at both the ticket counter and at the car lot. There was only one person at the ticket counter and I had to wait a bit. There was also some confusion over whether we prepaid for our rental. The person who took our reservation over the phone clearly told us we had prepaid but the person at the ticket counter said we had not. There were 2 people in the booth at the car lot. None of them came outside to help me find my car and there was no one to check me out upon departure. It was all electronic check-out. The experience was okay, just not what I expected from a rental car agency.

Rental was clean. Agent offered option of upgrade for $10 extra per day. Agent informed me that local residents had limit of 250 miles for the rental period. When I booked on Travelocity, it indicated unlimited miles. This is the only rental company that has ever limited my mileage.

The worst car company ever! Do not rent from them. It took two hours of waiting in line to get to the counter. By the time I got there I was too tired to notice the extra insurance they tacked on even though I denied extra coverage. I am guessing that corporate justifies the crappy service by having low prices (which were not that low after they added extra stuff I didn't want). Jerks!

This is the 3rd review that I have written about my horrid experience with "EZ rental car". I have asked repeatedly to be contacted by a customer service agent from this company... as well as from their partner Priceline.com. NEITHER has replied except to continue to send me "survey" forms. I will continue to say that I flew into ATL airport on Thanksgiving weekend with a reservation for EZ rental car. THERE WAS NO EZ RENTAL CAR AT THAT AIRPORT! There was 1 lousy little sign directing you to another rental car company. I was then told (by that company) that my rate would DOUBLE because I was a local customer and it should have been noted "somewhere" in very fine print on the third party site. Had it not been a holiday weekend I would have canceled on the spot. I travel all the time and rent from almost every rental company but THIS WAS JUST FRAUD!!
I was told by the Advantage rental car agent that checked my car back in that I should dispute the charge because this was a VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE OF FRAUDULENT BOOKINGS THAT HAPPENS AT LEAST 3X A WEEK! If ConsumerAffairs is so concerned with customer feedback then they should at least reply to those that have had a TERRIBLE experience! I am traveling again this week and renting a car for 10 days and I will NEVER, EVER, EVER rent from EZ Rental, Advantage rental or Priceline.com again.

I figure I'd give your company a 2nd chance. Same thing, different city/airport. Counter person lied to me and tried to upsell/charge me more. I returned the car with a FULL tank of gas.

Thankfully I took a picture of the odometer, fuel gauge and miles until empty. I WILL NOT BE PAYING THE FPO CHARGE! And... I WILL NEVER USE YOUR COMPANY AGAIN! I will also be telling EVERYONE I come in contact with about your lying and deceptive practices, as well as the Better Business Bureau.

After speaking with a man at the counter and having a manager come over as well to help reserve a car. I explicitly asked not to have any upgrades in vehicles or any further fees for our car and wanted to make sure all the charges were on one credit card and there were no further charges. I was assured by both employee & manager the final total and so I signed for this. Only later I find out that I was charged an extra $150 for an upgrade because I reserved it on Priceline and they lied to me about the extra charges.
I originally called to get things straightened out because I would not have reserved a car for 3 days at over $120 a day had I known what I was paying for and the customer service representative told me that I should’ve read the contract better and that it was my fault and she did not care that I was misled because I signed the contract which I was never able to read on the small credit card processing machine.

I went to cancel the reservation in order to save some money only to find that E-Z now charges $50.00 to cancel. I can understand if it was less than 24 hours before, but my trip is 2 weeks away and I booked less than 24 hours ago. I also sent 2 emails regarding the fact that the website will not accept Canadian addresses when trying to book. Nobody replied to my emails.
I then called and spent 29 minutes on hold before I was able to speak with a supervisor to help me. The supervisor then told me just to enter a US friend's address... What? Anyways, I entered the address of the hotel and booked the car as I was pretty much fed up. The car is now booked and to cancel will cost me $50.00.

"Since made thru 3rd party 'not our problem.'" Alternatives given were - get a hotel, hope for car tomorrow, but by the way 8 people ahead of you, OR you can get this upgraded vehicle (our last one) for three times the cost.
Oh, and our shuttle stopped running so we can’t take you back to terminal. Knew poor odds getting a car thru someone else on holiday weekend so took the “last car.” Never even heard of this rental company before so wouldn’t have even rented from them if wasn’t through Travelocity (have until this had good experiences with them).

The lady at the front desk get all my information then tells me I can only drive the car for 150 miles per day plus a 200 deposit. She went on to tell me that every rental company was doing that! I was like wow! I don't rent cars a lot so I thought she was telling the truth. Come to found out she lied about that and that was only their company policies. So I called customer service twice. The representatives gave me a very hard time. Wouldn't transfer me to a manager or supervisor so I could express my concerns. So today I returned the vehicle, full tank of gas and everything. Going through to return the car the gentleman asked if everything looked okay before closing out the contract. I looked at the tablet and I said no. They was charging me $530.00 so he if I had my contract.
I showed him my contract, he said, "Wow. Go to the front desk and show them your contract." I went to the front desk showed him my contract. The guy at the front desk said I owed 1,000.00. I asked why, he said, "Because you was supposed to return the car at 11:00 am." I said no my contract says 4:30 pm and the time was 3:00 pm! Then he said, "You went over your miles." I said,"How and how many." He said, "A lot!" I told him, "That's impossible because I barely drove the car." So the issue gets resolved. Barely wanted to apologize for their error!
So I called customer service again, this time I speak to a manager! She's just as rude! I explain to her what happened. She wasn't hearing it! Well what happened was the true mileage was not reported accurately so when I returned the car it looked like I drove over a 1000+ miles. I ended up hanging up because the issue was not getting solved. Just don't rent a car from them. Seemed like they was trying to found a reason to charge me more! If you have to rent with them I highly recommend taking a picture of the mileage when you get the car and when you return the car just so you know exactly how many miles you used!

It is my fervent belief that E-Z Rent-A-Car has been built to easily rip you off. Use a more reputable car rental service provider. My experience with their customer service was awful. I did not think I needed to present proof of insurance, as the first proof of insurance clause stated that I would only need it if I was under the age of 25. They told me I had not clearly read the local renter clause that negates the validity of the proof of insurance clause. The local renter clause says you need proof of insurance. That means the first clause is no longer valid. Company line: "Read the fine print."
I was originally told the hold would be $200. Arrive, am told it's $350. I dropped the reservation after this, as I quickly looked up their reviews online and discovered that they were notorious for not returning holds and charging for random fees. Company line when I asked about the discrepancy? You guessed it, "Read the fine print."
The local driver's fee is quite the heist. The customer service associate actually told me, "If you don't want to pay $20 per day fee, buy a roundtrip ticket". Hmmmm... So helpful. Company line? You guessed it again, "Read the fine print." Take a look at the past 60 days of their reviews, and you will see a standard answer they offer up:
"Thank you for contacting Advantage Rent A Car. After further investigation and reviewing your Rental Agreement we found that you signed accepting the "fill in what they say you agreed to". When you signed your Agreement you acknowledged that you had the opportunity to read through the Agreement before signing to verify all charges were correct. Because you signed agreeing to all charges, a refund is not applicable. Thank you and hope that you will allow us the opportunity to serve you again in the near future."
That is their status quo, because they create agreements that require you to put your lawyer eyes on to understand. They lean on a complicated and confusing renter's agreement that gets lost on websites and through 3rd party providers. It is apparently all in the fine print. But, what you won't find in the fine print is that EZ and Advantage are built to take as much money away from you as possible. Do yourself a favor. Pay the few dollars more and stick with a reputable company that knows how to treat you right. You get what you pay for, and in this instance, it's not worth the pain and suffering.

Reserved a compact car, got there at our time indicated for pickup. Person at counter claimed only a minivan was available despite our expressed desire for what we reserved. She continued to insist nothing was available but a minivan and it would be at the reserved rate. We still insisted on what we wanted. We got to the garage to pick up the car and the E-Z area had several compacts and she gave us a Suburban. We were beyond mad. People behind us getting cars got smaller cars than us. We were in an unfamiliar city, Seattle. Difficulty finding a space at hotel that fit the Suburban. I would never recommend this company or use them.

With her asking about a 4WD she should have known then that there were no toll roads in the area. She was persuasive with the EZ toll info though. Stated more roads are now tolls. I would possibly be fined if I went through them by accident, so I said OK as I haven't been there in a year I trusted her. I also bought the fuel option. My bill then went to 381.19.
When I returned the car the young man stated he would e-mail the final receipt. Returned the car with 3/4 tank. When I finally got the chance to see the emailed receipt we were on our way to catch our flight home to PA. The final bill was 418.73. He also has that there was 3/8 gas. Quite a difference from 3/4?? Should have been a non-issue as I bought the FPO. It was 177.39 More than the online quote, 37.54 dollars more than quoted fee at sign on. Maybe they saw an elderly single female in a line of people waiting and thought easy sell for extras that really weren't needed!!!
When I did get a chance to review the Colorado Toll Road Map, there are no toll roads anywhere near where I was driving. If I didn't specifically tell her where I was driving I could understand her concern for possible toll charges. But I was specific as to the area of travel. I booked EZ because it was the best online quote price. It was better than the competitors. Little did I know about the hidden and or unnecessary charges! Since our family member has moved to Colorado many other family members will be visiting your amazing state. They most likely will be needing to rent vehicles. I can't say at this point in time if I would recommend EZ.
I feel that some form of financial adjustment is in order as the final charge was 177.39 more from the online quote and 34.54 from the sign on. YES I realize that "on the paper rental record" by signing below... BUT you never get a chance to see the final total. I’ll just "send it to your e-mail" sign here! They know you are from out of state and need to catch a flight or other transportation and they GOT you. Again, I cannot say if I would recommend EZ to family members in the future. Considering the issues as noted above. CONSUMER BEWARE!!!

Be cautious when renting a car from E-Z Rent-A-Car. After arriving in Orlando Florida, I went to the E-Z Rent-A-Car area and I was checked in by Ahmad. Ahmad DID NOT go over the extra charges I would faced with in regards to the collision damage waiver (CDW) and additional driving cost. I was charged an additional $12.99 per day for adding an extra driver and $25.49 for the CDW. When I called the company after receiving the final invoice and called to dispute it, a representative called me back on October 19, 2017.
I talked to Ahmad and he said he would only refund the additional driver cost of $77.94 for the 5 days, but not the $152.94 cost of the Collision Damage Waiver. I was not reimbursed for either of this items and I did NOT receive a callback from the manager. I consider myself to be a knowledgeable consumer, but the rental agreement is made to be complicated to someone, especially after flying for half the day. E-Z Rent-A-Car is possibly in violation of the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act (FDUTPA).
Please DO NOT TRUST the 5 star reviews for this company since there is the possibility they were submitted by employees or agents from the company. Many others have similar issues with the E-Z Rent-A-Car as well. Trust the 1 star reviews! Be leery when renting from this company at the Orlando International Airport location.

I traveled from Colorado Springs to Houston for business, arriving the 24th of September through October 13th. I'd made reservations to pick up a rental car for a good price - about 600 dollars. When I'd arrived, I waited over an hour for the single employee working to process seven customers. She hurried through my check-in, sign here, initial here, that sort of thing. Told me, and this is key here, that E-Z Advantage would be HOLDING $1400.00 on my credit card to cover any potential damage fees or if I didn't return with a full tank of gas. Animated about this, reasonably, I made sure that she promise that I'd only be charged the original amount I'd reserved for, and she swore emphatically that I would. She even upsized the size of my rental car, which was kind.
I returned the vehicle to IAH Airport on October 13th. The agent that processed the transaction informed me that I was billed $1,418.77. Confused, I asked about these charges and he told me, much like the first agent, that I'd only be charged the original amount. Skeptical, I contacted customer service by calling 800-277-5171. The agent not only confirms that I was "correctly" charged $1,418.77, but that this is now a closed contract and there's nothing to be done. I request to speak to a supervisor. This has gone too far. I remain on hold for 41 minutes until the call drops at 1:53 PM. I'm never contacted about the issue.
Look, I work in the energy industry. I'll survive if I never get the money back. If this is how business is conducted, though? Then Monday morning, 35,000 BH employees get the email to never use E-Z Advantage. Then the 330,000 employees of my parent company. Embarrassing. What a hassle. What a nightmare experience.

Rented a Sonata or equivalent for my wife through Car.com. Tried to give me a stripped Kia RIO. Ended up the the lowest grade Camry that was several years old and had NO spare tire. The car was filthy inside and out and covered with so many bugs you could hardly see out of the windshield. The seats were stained everywhere. Ended up taking the car back as the left rear window was stuck open from trying to cool the car off from sitting in the sun. Also NO Roadside Assistance included. I asked what she would do if she got a flat and they said call AAA (AAA would not have had a spare tire anyway) which we do not have or need as our primary car has Roadside Assistance included so no need for AAA.
After taking the Toyota back and complaining, E-Z said they would upgrade it to a new 2018 Toyota with a spare tire and 1400 miles and added Roadside Assistance for $7. My wife was doing the paperwork at the counter and the had her initial something to make the change. Turns out the rental went from $139 to $214 which I did not catch right away and being as we were short on time we were stuck. E-Z Rent-A-Car is a disaster of a company with extremely poor customer service. I recommend you avoid E-Z Rent-A-Car or their companion company Advantage. Stick with the name brands even if it costs a little more.

The Good News: On July 28, 2016 I rented a car from E-Z in Salt Lake City. I initialed the Collision Damage Waiver and was charged nothing for insurance as the note regarding CDW stated, "By initialing here you decline to purchase our CDW and you agree to be responsible for all damage to or loss of the Vehicle." The Bad News: Just a year later on August 4, 2017 I rented a car from E-Z in Atlanta. I initialed the Collision Damage Waiver and was charged $82.47, $27.49 per day for 3 days! When I later read the fine print in the note regarding the CDW on the Atlanta contract it stated, "By initialing here you AGREE TO PURCHASE [my emphasis] CDW. CDW does not cover all... [three more lines of legalisms]... $27.49 per day.
The word 'waiver' in the Atlanta contract was twisted to be contradictory to its use in the SLC contract and contradictory to its meaning! Merriam-Webster gives the definition of waiver as, "the act of intentionally relinquishing or abandoning a known right, claim, or privilege." How could one be agreeing to purchase insurance when initialing a waiver which means they are 'relinquishing or abandoning' the right to insurance? This is outright fraud!
The same fraudulent contradictory wording occurs on the Fuel Purchase Option. The SLC contract states: “By initialing here, you decline to purchase either FPO and you agree to either (A) return the Vehicle with the fuel gauge reading at least the same level as when rented, or (B) pay us an estimated refueling fee based on the cost of $... per gallon. You will not receive a credit if you return the Vehicle with more fuel than rented.” The phrase, “pay us an estimated refueling fee” appears to indicate that one would pay for the amount of fuel used. In contrast, the Atlanta contract states: “By initialing here, you agree to purchase FPO fuel at the beginning of the rental. No refueling fees will apply if you return the Vehicle with less fuel than when rented. You will not receive a refund or credit for unused fuel. $2.70 per gallon.”
The fraud in this case is that the agent told me that the cost would be about the same if I refueled to the same level as at rental or purchased the FPO. However, the only way one would come out about the same is if the Vehicle was brought back with an empty tank (unlikely unless one risks running out of gas) as FPO charges for the full amount of gas the tank holds. I used about 4 gallons ($10.80 at $2.70 per gallon), but paid $43.07 for nearly 16 gallons! The total fraudulent charges were ($43.07 - $10.80) + $82.47 (the CDW) = $114.74, a 69% overcharge.
The signature block on the contract says, “…You have had the opportunity to read… (the agreement)". But in reality you don’t. It took about 15 minutes waiting in line to get to the counter, and when I was there many were waiting behind me. Because of this, you trust the integrity of known established companies (E-Z has been in existence for 23 years) as you can’t hold up the line at counter reading all the fine print (the agreement contains approximately 4,500 words including the back side). Note that on consumeraffairs.com regarding the approval rating for E-Z Rental over the past year, 36% of the ratings were ones on a 1-5 scale. To top that, the combined one and two ratings add up to a whopping 47%! E-Z Rental has apparently exploited nearly half of their customers!

I needed to rent a car to go see my mother, who lived in another state and was having a medical emergency. I reserved a car for a total price, including all fees, of $33.53. I have rented approximately a hundred cars in my lifetime, so I was very familiar with the procedure and I didn't expect any problem. When I arrived at their pick-up location, I had to wait half an hour for their shuttle, while all the other companies' shuttles passed by every 10 minutes. Then, after I finally arrived at the desk, I was surprised with a bunch of additional requirements for "local renters." Apparently, those who reside within a 65 mile radius of the rental location are subject to a $350 deposit, we need to show our current personal automobile insurance policy declarations, and we are not entitled to the unlimited mileage as promised on the original agreement.
We only have the option to "purchase" unlimited mileage for an additional $20 per day, or pay 55 cents for each mile over 250. My confirmation email had told me NONE of this. These features are buried in a tiny little link for terms and conditions, which is full of unprofessional grammar and misspellings. I left and had to walk to another rental agency, where I was issued a vehicle with much better terms, but this incident caused a big delay for me, and my attempt to recover the lost time resulted in a speeding ticket, my first moving violation in 25 years. So, that falsely advertised $33.53 ended up costing me more than $200, but at least I got to see my mother one last time before she passed away.

On 10/8/17 I arrived in Orlando Florida and went to pick up my reservation from E-Z Rent A Car. When reviewing option I was asked if I wanted to to pay for fuel after returning the vehicle which I agreed. I was told that the cost would be $30.49 at $2.41 a gallon which was okay. I was then asked if I want premium or basic insurance for the vehicle which I said basic since my credit card covers everything and I don't need it. He then said, "Just go ahead and sign for the vehicle" and said "5 screens will pop up just initial and hit accept." He then showed me by saying, "Initial here" and he scrolled with the pen and hit okay on the first screen.
Turns out the charge of 30.49 was not for gas but for insurance which I said I did not want. I called customer service when I arrived at the hotel 30min away and was told that I would have to drive back to resolve. I explained that is not really possible as of the time needed is not practical while I'm on vacation. I went to explain that I was mislead by what I signed and considering that the first thing signed is the item the representative scrolled past for me. I feel that this was a ploy to get an additional sale. I have no need for this coverage and was told by customer service they can't help. In the end I was overcharged $182.94.

We've been 2 days late to our holiday in Orlando and missed booked car with another company so had to look for new car. Freddie at EZ cars was very pleasant to arrange a car for $20 a day for 5 days, but initial bill came to $600. Surprise, surprise, welcome to Orlando. Our previously booked car was around $160 so it didn't look right. It's our first trip to US, so we have to rely on honesty of service providers. Then eventually he reduced to $500 as there are actually 5 days from 18 to 23 September.
It was explained that we are charged just for insurance we need to have, and wasn't in my previous rental, therefore the price difference. I checked once again at the hotel our previous reservation and went following day to desk to complain about the price and the car (internal power point not working). They gave us upgrade and reduced price to $358.84 but the total I was charged is $404.51. This price meddling is totally unfair. They charge double compared with Internet price plus balloon price for unaware people coming the first time. On the website there is no email address provided to contact directly.

I rented a car in E-Z Rent-A-Car at Miami airport on 08th Sep. Picked up the car in the morning at 10:00am and I was going in the Road to New Orleans. When I was near the Lamont, FL, the battery Light in red appears in the panel and 5 mins after that appears in the panel the yellow alert called "malfunction" and after 2 mins the car started to decrease the speed and when try to accelerate, there was no answer (just drive at 2 mph) and for my Lucky, I can took the exit to Lamont city and park the car into a Mobil gas station at 19:00. After park, I started to check the car and called to E-Z car to request assistance, but after talk for sometime with the attendant, I was informed that regarding Irma hurricane, no one can help me and said to me to try to call again on the next day in the morning.
So I tried to find a hotel/motel at the city for me and my wife sleep but all were sold out with no vacancy, so we needed to sleep inside the car at the gas station! In the morning, I tried to start the engine and the same issue and lights in the panel, so I asked for a person in the gas station to do a jump start regarding that he had cables and we did it and nothing change so I called again to E-Z car and Talked with Raquel and explained to her all the situation and she said to me if it was possible to go to Jacksonville, FL with the car (but the car was with problem and no way to drive the car) and also regarding Irma evacuation at Florida, the truck towing didn't accept to pick up the car and go to Jacksonville, so I said to Raquel that I needed to leave the car at the Lamont city and after someone from E-Z car take the car (because I will not stay in the car until Someone probably on Tuesday can take the car).
After drop the line with Raquel, I found a truck towing near the gas station and asked him for help and he also tried to do jump start with no success and after check more deeper he looked that the belt was cutted so for this reason had the issue. So to leave the car in a more safety place I paid him US$ 175,00 to go to Tallahassee International airport and we left the car inside the long term park on the third spot on the right, with the GPS inside the trunk, all doors locked and the key I put inside the little door to access the gasoline tank nozzle.
After that I needed to pay US$ 700.00 for a Taxi to go with me and my wife to New Orleans. For all these reasons I request the refund of the value that I paid in the credit card US$ 1073,51, because I rent the car to go out of Florida (Irma evacuation) and I had a headache with the car at the same day that was rented to me with bad maintenance (for this reasons the belt broke). I already explain this situation by phone and informed that the car has been moved from Lamont to Tallahassee airport and Biron (E-Z car) said me that someone from Jacksonville will Pick up the car in the Tallahassee airport.

I told her my name and gave her my credit card and license, then she asks for a 'declaration'. Kept insisting I needed to provide this document and reciting some rule. I ask her if she was having a bad day based on her tone, but she just kept reciting this rule.
I explain I have rented from this company before and never had to provide a declaration. I still don't know what that is, at any rate, she appeared to be irritated that I was even there. I asked if I could just cancel my reservation, she said I could at no charge, so I asked her to cancel and then I proceeded to one of the other companies, and it took about 15 minutes for me to sign the contract and drive off the lot.
I called customer service to make sure the reservation had been cancelled and some guy named George wants to read some policy. I ask to speak to a manager and there is no manager. I just want a refund for a service I was not provided. I don't get how a clerk can decide who gets waited on, and if they are having a bad day, why can't they just take a break or something?

Car rental reservation made weeks in advance. Arrived at pick up location and the lines were 2 hours. Multiple staff chairs were empty. Not worth the money saved. Don't rent from them unless you like standing in line for hours. This is my second experience with them like this. Horrible company.

We had reserved a car through EZ rental car in Orlando. At the airport when we went to pick it up, it was supposed to be 170 dollars, when we finished it was 314 dollars. The attendant at the counter was very rude, never was told about second driver fee that came to 65 dollars for the week. Just seemed not to care. When we went to pick up car it was dirty and full of scratches and smelled like someone tried to cover up smoke. We wanted a full size car, felt like the one we got was too small and they did not want to hear it, then again the people were rude and did not care. It was like you rented it you live with it. I will never rent another car from this place and not recommend it to anyone else.
Thank you for contacting Advantage Rent A Car. After further investigation and reviewing your Rental Agreement we found that you signed accepting the optional service of the additional driver fee for $12.99 a day plus taxes and fees. When you signed your Agreement you acknowledged that you had the opportunity to read through the Agreement before signing to verify all charges were correct. Because you singed agreeing to all charges which include the additional driver fee, a refund is not applicable.Thank you and hope that you will allow us the opportunity to serve you again in the near future.

Made reservation online 5 months in advance. Seemed to be most reasonable price. Car was washed and ready. Had relatively low mileage. Check-in and check-out were both efficient. What I liked most about E-Z Rent-A-Car was that no one in the process tried to up-sell me to a bigger car, or pushed insurance, GPS, toll payer unit, etc., all with higher rental costs. This, alone, makes me want to use E-Z again.

Possibly the worst customer service experience I have encountered. Tardy, unapologetic, unsafe, disinterested, inefficient, rude, argumentative, unaffected, condescending, patronizing, dirty, unethical. You name it, that's EZ Rent a Car. I rented a car from their LAX location on August 9 but understand this to be the case all of the time. Check out their online ratings - they speak for themselves. DO NOT RENT A CAR FROM THIS COMPANY REGARDLESS OF THE PRICE. YOU'LL MISS YOUR MEETING. YOUR VACATION WILL BE UNDERMINED. You Will Regret It.

Great experience, no pressure for extras, friendly staff at check-in and when I returned the van at the end of the week. Reasonable price too. The amount I ended up paying when I returned the van was exactly what was quoted when I made the reservation several months prior.

I make it a point to consider E-Z Rent-A-Car when I travel... Not disappointed. I do a lot of search when I need to use a car during my excursions. Don't want to pay a lot for RENTAL. I take care of the ride that takes care of me... It's that EZ.

EZ Rental Car ABQ - I had a premium car booked and they DID NOT have one and did NOT adjust the price. They charged almost $13 a day for my spouse to drive and did NOT inform me (my BAD) since I already had looked at the contract and then asked them to add her and I did not look at it closely the second time. I turned the car in TWO hours before it would count as the 5th day in the contract and they changed the rate and increased the price by about $60. After discussing this with the manager (Jesse) they finally reduced it about $40 and the manager was VERY rude. He accused me of belittling him simply because I did not agree with him.

It was worst rental experience I ever had. They use low rate to lure people and find all excuses to charge more. A lot of rental companies do not have mileage charges but they do. When I said I have insurance at home they asked me to provide insurance certificate? The rental was done at Toronto airport Aug 10 thru Aug 15. For 6 days they charged Can Dollars 707.52. It is about $520. The quote was $266.00 about double. They also charge any days car in US. Never heard anything like this in my whole life. I don't recommend anyone do business with EZ Rent-A-Car.

I was very impressed with the service I received in renting the car from E-Z at the Miami Airport. The employee was very helpful and fast and accurate at processing the paperwork and credit card. Picking up the card was also a fast process but the attendant was so busy didn't have time to explain how to leave the airport. His directions did not help out. Returning the vehicle was also a fast process and I dealt with a well mannered young man. Thank you E-Z. I will definitely look for your rent a car in my next opportunity to travel.
