  I made a reservation for a mid-size SUV at Hertz's ******************* location for a week from 8/19-25 for a family trip with a toddler to Yellowstone. The Hertz website gave us a quote of $517 Upon landing at the airport, we took the Hertz shuttle to the rental office 20 minutes away from the airport (all other rental car companies are in the airport). The attendant told me that there is no available mid-size SUV, and he could only offer me a Jeep pick-up truck which is "of the same class as SUV". The pick-up truck has no truck bed covers and the interior sitting space is tiny, which is completely unsuitable for a family with young children. The only alternative vehicle is a large 3-row SUV ****** Tahoe,) which costs $1290 for a full week instead of the originally quoted $517. It was already 9pm and we were stuck in this remote Hertz location far away from all other alternative rentals, I had to bite the bullet and took the super over-priced *****.The next day, I managed to get a mid-size SUV from Budget for $550/week at the airport. Then I went to hertz to return this ***** which I drove for 20 miles in < 1 day. I was charged the "daily rate" for $223.TL;DR Hertz scammed me using bait and switch strategy, I was forced to rent a much higher priced car, and when I found an alternative, I was charged $223 for one day rental.

  When I arrived on Friday 8/10/23 to pick up my rental I had to wait 30 minutes. I express my dissatisfaction regarding the vehicle rental not being ready on time and no accommodations were made. This pushed my arrival time back as I was traveling to a funeral out of town. Also, the check oil light came on and when I notified the Hertz office and manager, I was told this is normal and it was nothing to worry about. Also, my back breaks were not working as one of my family members made me aware of this.

  I was quoted a certain amount when renting my car. I tried to contact them while on vacation but the only person I could get a hold of was someone who could help for already completed transactions. She told me I could take care of it after its been billed and if I had all my information. I tried calling Hertz when we got home from our vacation and ******* said I had to send an email. This lady **** said the bill is correct and never even looked at what the price should have been. I sent another email and the lady responded thats the correct amount because I picked a different car than what was booked but I never picked a car or agreed to any upgrade. When I checked in for our reservation they told us what number to pick my car up at and thats where we went. Now theyre refusing to refund me the difference.

  We sincerely regret any misunderstanding concerning the rate charged on your rental.  Our records indicate a Contract Rate was confirmed at the time of booking.  These rates are not guaranteed and are subject to change, thus, the current contract rate on file will be applied at the time of rental.  We have verified the correct rate, based on the contract rate applicable at the time of the rental, was applied and an adjustment is not warranted.

  According to our records, the reservation was received as a direct computer to computer transaction from a third party.  Since a Hertz representative was not involved in the reservation process, it is the responsibility of the booking party to verify all conditions and ensure that all information is relayed to their client.  Therefore, any further inquiry should be directed to your booking source.

  I am rejecting this response because: I have booked with Hertz for many years using the same third party. I can provide you with all my invoices and what I paid. They nearly doubled what they were suppose to charge. When the rental was active I could 'nt not get an agent on the phone and I spoke to the billing person for compelted bookings and she said I could call once it was billed. If I had known they would'nt fix it after I would have asked to change it when I dropped off my car. I can provide you with my phone records to show you I spoke to a representative.

  I made a reservation, k58736287a7, with Hertz on 8/17. I called to make the reservation and was hung up on, so I drove to the office to speak to an employee. After answering my questions, I was told to book online. I made a reservation for a 6+ passenger vehicle. I did the pay now option for a slightly lower price ($359.94). I intentionally chose a location that was open late/on weekends so that I could do a later pickup after my work shift and so that if there were any snags, someone would be available to assist. I received a confirmation email on 8/17 & 8/23 stating that my reservation was 8/25 @ 5 pm - 9/1 @ 5 pm. Initial email included the shop hours m-f 8am-6pm sat 9 am - noon. Those hours were online AND were given to me by the reservation agent yesterday. I went to pick up the rental vehicle at 4:55 pm on 8/25 and the door was locked. There was a paper taped to the door stating that they changed their hours and had closed at 4 pm. The employee at the desk was helping a man inside. Completely ignored me. Finally another woman came to the door and said "we're closed". I told her that I had paid for a rental that was to be picked up at 5 pm. The desk employee said, "I called her. She didn't answer." I told them I didn't receive the call. I was at work and had come straight over after work. I received zero apology and was told I could pick up the car Monday. As I was supposed to be going on vacation Saturday, that was not helpful. I called customer service. They said I could pick up the vehicle Saturday. I explained that the employees at the location said they have new hours and wouldn't be open until Monday. I was then told that I could cancel my reservation wait **** days for a refund and rebook using the airport location for $1200. This is a ridiculous scam, they need to be stopped. Tons of 1 star reviews and the initial hang up should have been red flags. I had to make multiple calls to even request the refund. No receipt of cancelation has been received.

  Rental Record# ********* Aug 18-Aug 22 This was an absolute nightmare!! My reservation was for a Mid Sized Sedan. I picked up the vehicle from the ******* **************************** at 10:23am. After getting on the freeway we noticed a loud noise and shaking from the front end of the vehicle once we got up to 40mph. We pulled over and contacted customer service for them to advise on what needed to be done because this vehicle was clearly unsafe to drive to FLA. We returned to the airport to exchange the vehicle. Upon arrival a Hertz rep by the name of ****************** walked me to a customer service counter where I interacted with *********************** who was very unprofessional. She proceeded to have side conversations that were unrelated to the situation at had while I was trying to explain what was going on with the car. She decided to upgrade me to a SUV in which i declined because I didn't rent a SUV. The second car that was provided was visibly dirty and clearly had not been detailed from a previous rental. I pointed this out to ******* who worked along side ************* who stated " I mean it looks dirty but that doesn't mean its dirty" and laughed. Unbelievable!! Not only was the vehicle visibly dirty it had a hideous smell. At this point it was now after 1pm. We were very behind on our anticipated travel time and could't wait any longer on another replacement. I asked for the number to corporate but was given the wrong number. Not only did we have endure a dirty, rental but we also had to deal with the hideous smell for a 5 hour drive. I researched and located a number to the executive corporate team that advised I call back once the car was returned to discuss how the situation could be rectified. I was offered some points to my Gold Member account and was told thats all they could do. Unacceptable!! You guys rented me a vehicle that was unsafe to drive and replaced it with a dirty smelly one and charged me ******!! Unacceptable!! **************** ***** across the board!!

The damage was under the vehicle and was not shown in pre inspection photos due to this location. While I was in possession of vehicle, there was no incidents that occurred that would have caused this damage, therefore the damage was present when I took possession.

  This business has over charged me for a rental that wasnt damaged and brought back in one piece. I do take ownership for the fuel fee of $169, late return for $60, cleaning fee for $400 and the delivery fee for $50. However Im not responsible for $5000 for a car that was not damaged in any way. I spoke with a lady during the time this happened and she saw where they made a mistake with the amount they charged me for the days. Upon my rental agreement thats not what I authorized to pay. Nobody In they mind going to pay $5000 for a car thats not their own. This business has gotten over on me before and I trusted to do business with them again.

  The total bill applied to your credit card account is $482.87. We sincerely apologize if multiple authorization holds were placed on your account for your August 23 rental in error. The information in our system, reflects only one authorization hold was taken on your account. 
  
  When the car was returned, a charge for the total amount due was submitted to your credit card company and the authorization hold(s) were released.  Depending on the credit card company, there may be a delay between the time the charges are received and when the hold is released.  The length of time this takes is not determined by Hertz.  Since the card issuer is responsible for releasing authorization holds/funds back to their customers' accounts, we recommend you contact the card issuer directly.  

  Please note, once the authorization hold has been released from your account, it will not appear as a credit, it will just be removed from your statement and the funds will no longer be pending.

  Rental agreement #********* I rented the cheapest car available from Thrifty/Hertz on 8/11/23 when I moved my daughter to ******** for grad school. I waited in a line of over 30 customers to pick up my vehicle at the **************** location, so they were likely just ******* us through. The proposed bill given to me shows $187 initial charge with it showing I would be charged another $93 upon dropping the car back off. However, due to complications with my flight I had called in to thrifty on the 16th and asked to extend my rental by 3 more days. I asked what that would cost me and she quoted me approx $300. She said that price was because of additional taxes and fees etc that are included, again no discussion of $130 insurance charges being added on per day. But once I returned back to ******** and looked at my charges, it was $1,100 total charged to my card. I returned car with a full gas tank and no damages. Therefore, I rented a car for $25 per day for 7 days ($50 per day with taxes and fees) but was billed $1,100 when those insurance charges were applied. I have personal car insurance I could have used if I had been made aware of these fees, or anyone discussing my expected total bill so that I could have had a heads up about the amount. I was even charged a $32 late fee? Car was returned the night of the 17th after the closing hours (10:00pm) but reserved through the 18th by 3:00 pm?? I am asking for adjustment of bill to remove the additional insurance charges to match the documentation of the bill I provided herein, and have the people at the airport location get some additional training on discussing insurance charges with people. Especially when the charges far exceed the total price of the car rental itself. This bill has devastated my finances as a single parent with 2 kids in college.

  This is in response to *****************, 

  Regrettably, we are unable to reconstruct the conversation between our representative and yourself.  Therefore, we must rely on the signed documentation indicating your acceptance of the Loss Damage ********************************************************** and ************************ charges. A copy of the signed rental agreement is attached. No refund of these options is warranted. 
  

  Our records indicate when you contacted Thrifty to extend your rental, the rental was only extended to August 16 at 22:00. Since the vehicle was not extended until August 16, when the original return date was August 15, and then the vehicle was not returned until August 17 at 22:21, the Late Return Fee was applicable. However, as a gesture of our concern, I have issued a full refund of the Late Return Fee in this case. Please allow 7 to 10 business days for the $41.96 refund to reflect on your **** ending 9981.
