Total scam is Avis / Budget Total scam is Avis / Budget. Rented a car for 106Euro. Had to pay 179Euro extra for ‘something i signed for’. A windshield protection. They mislead you in signing a vague contract and threaten you with large 3.500 Euro fines for a tiny scratch. DO NOT RENT HERE EVER. This happened at Malaga airport.

I DO have reservations about Avis Ever wonder what the difference is between making a car rental reservation and just walking up to the Avis counter? At Avis, there apparently is NO difference. Avis can (and just did) call you up in mid-flight to tell you that when you land, you won't really have a rental car available. The agent took it to the next level by leaving me a phone number to return her call. The phone number was to Budget Car Rentals. Avis 3401 SW 11th St -Ste 10 Lawton, OK-73501 Long story short, Enterprise Car Rental was able to save the day yet again. I should have gone to Enterprise first but they weren't an option on the American Airlines reservations site.

Provided a smaller vehicle than what I paid for I received a confirmed rental agreement about 1 month prior to collecting my vehicle. When I arrived for collection, I was told they only had 1 vehicle left, which was smaller than what I paid for and couldn't accommodate my luggage, so my family was stuck with a 16kg bag resting across the lap of 2 family members seated in the back seat. When I returned the vehicle to AVIS, I was advised to lodge an email complaint with AVIS Management. I did. It has now been 1 week and no response at all, not even an acknowledgment. The ratings tell you all you need to know about this company.

Thought I would try Avis at the Salt… Thought I would try Avis at the Salt Lake City airport, worse wait ever, only 2 staff working, 30 waiting in line and no movement.

Avis outrageous cancelation fee For the first time I paid for a vehicle upfront. Then had to cancel. Cancelled 19 days out from pick up, 3 days after paying. Out of a $296 hire charge Avis charged $82.50 cancellation fee. Now that is a disgusting practice.
