GBAvis doesn't try harder- they try hardly at all Avis doesn't try harder- they try hardly at all! Given a defective car in Miami airport with low tire pressure and leak right out of the airport- the tire alert went off and we had to make an appointment so figured I could deal with this after we arrived. Couldn't get anyone to help me on the phone, tried to replace the car at a local avis place and they literally laughed at me and told me I had to go back to Miami airport (45 min away). Put air in the tire on way to Key West and the tire continued to leak air and returned it a day early to avoid a flat. The car was supposed to have a Nav system (it did not) and satellite radio (it did but no channels subscribed so useless). So called to complain- what did they offer me? A free day (I returned the car a day early already) and would take off of the satellite radio (which I didn't get anyway). Would never rent from them again. If I could give 0 stars I would!

GBAvis Savannah. Nightmare Avis Savannah 4/3/24. Reserved car…50+ people in line…NO cars line not moving Spent $320.00 on metered taxi to get to a meeting 11/2 hours away. All customer service after much time spent offered a coupon or $50. Not acceptable

GBLost and Stolen, Avis Does not TRY at all On 22 March,2024 I returned a truck that I rented from Miami Airport the week before and exchanged it for a car at Palm Beach international airport, Unknowingly, I left a Ryobi pressure cleaner in the backseat and when I realized this later I filed a lost item report, # 19206369. Over the next week and a half checked with the lost and found at Avis but it never showed up. I checked for two weeks. I called a few times no call would ever go through. On April 4th I drove to the Avis at Palm Beach County airport to speak directly to someone at the counter to see what happened. They had no information. They told me my item was never logged in to lost and found in Avis. Frustrated I spoke to one of the customer service reps, Frank, that accepts cars and removes anything that that might've been left in the car. Frank clearly remembered the truck because it stayed in the same place for a couple of days where I parked it. He remembered seeing the pressure cleaner in it and he had no idea what happened to it, but he remembered clearly that it was in there. He thought maybe somebody had taken the truck home and somebody had taken the pressure cleaner and not turned it in. This constitutes theft. I've spent a lot of time every day checking to see if it's showing up and lost and found, calling and then having to drive all the way up to the airport all because somebody didn't do the job that they were required to do and were stealing my personal possessions. I have since filed a police report on this theft and gave a copy of this to Avis and they have done NOTHING to Try Harder to make things right

AWUnexpected charges without my consent! My recent experience with Avis at the Orlando International Airport was disappointing and frustrating. Upon arrival to pick up my rental car, I was confronted with unexpected extra charges that were not clearly explained by the Avis representative. After informing the Avis representative that they charged me more than my agreement with booking.com he acknowledged that I was being charged more than the agreed-upon amount. He stated that he was unable to adjust the charges in the system and suggested that I return when a manager was available to address the issue. Given our early departure on April 30th, I asked about the availability of a manager at 4 am, to which I was informed that the manager won’t be present at that time. Instead, I was advised to contact Avis via email. So unfortunately, i trusted him and went ahead and signed the contract not knowing what the extra charges were for. Notably, at no point during our interaction did he mention any insurance options or asked if I wanted additional coverage. Despite my efforts to resolve the issue with via email, my request for a refund for the excess charges was denied by Avis, citing that I had signed the contract that included insurances (which I already had paid for through Booking.com and they know it!) This experience has left me deeply dissatisfied with Avis and their lack of communication and transparency. As a result, they have lost a client, and I will be seeking alternative rental options in the future.

IEBeware of Avis scam These are dishonest people. On way to a funeral not far from East Midlands England and pre-hired a car only for named driver to miss flight. So I ask for another car, got quote and signed based on quote. Got billed and double the quoted charge (witness in office when quoted). Queried with Avis and basically said you didn't understand the charge. The double cost stands. So beware when dealing with these Avis car hire - no empathy only greed.
