      This company is horrible!!! I made a reservation a week before thanksgiving to see my family so I go to the branch to pay and pick up the car with my debit card but they do a credit check so now I'm left with no transportation to see my family for thanksgiving!! This is so hurtful and I will never book with Avis again.. Had Avis made their policy clear at the time of me booking i would have booked with another company because of my credit.... And no one can explain what Avis looks for when they pull the credit..

      I reserved a vehicle for Avis 224 Madison Ave, Memphis, Tn location. The manager for the location alleged he spoke with me to send the reservation to the Airport, due to there were no cars at the downtown location because of the *****(***********************), after I showed up to the location. My reservation was sent to the Airport without notification and I was being charged extra;however, after doing a cancellation, I was informed I would have to pay $50 to cancel, which I should not be charged anything for whomever took it upon themself to relocate my reservation, just give me my refund.
