We dealt with an individual named … We dealt with an individual named marc(manager of the Austin office). They put our friend with cystic fibrosis life at risk by renting us a vehicle that had no external power for an 8 hour trip. I highly recommend not doing business with advantage. We put together events for terminally sick kids and they rented us a vehicle that had no internal power and achieved 7 miles per Gallon when they told us it was 18 mpg. When trying to deal with the situation marc said that he didn't want to deal with giving us a proportionate refund simply because " he didn't want to".

Charged us twice as much as quoted online We had rented through orbitz, and when we arrived at the rental counter is was incredibly busy so we quickly went through the paperwork. After driving away, we noticed that they had added collision insurance to our bill (which caused it to be twice as much as quoted by Orbitz!) without confirming or asking us. We called, requesting to get it removed (since our car insurance covers rental cars) but they refused and Orbitz said there was nothing they could do.

Collected my car from George Bush… Collected my car from George Bush International in Houston. Provided with a battered car with terrible mileage, a destroyed front bumper and the engine warning light on one week in. The headlights didn't even work properly. When challenged upon collection the response was those are the keys you've been given, thats the car you've got. Would NEVER use again. To top it off, we didn't even receive the full deposit back as they had taken a chunk out for *Taxes* that had never previously been mentioned.

Advantage closed before there time and… Advantage closed before there time and the customer service manager Nicolas said they were closed before their time because they had rented out all their cars before our plane landed. They charged us a fee for not canceling even though they had no cars left. We tried calling over and over and they didn't pick up because they sent everyone home. Advantage abandoned us at the airport with no other options. We felt betrayed and worried because we had an early meeting the next day with a 2 hour drive still ahead of us with no car. So we rented from Sixt rental car , they are a much better company. Review after review has said advantage has stolen from them. Call the attorney general of the state your in ASAP if they have done something bad to you.

Incompetence at its best! I booked a car in July via Europcar for collection at JFK on 7th September at 8:00. Along with at least 4 customers in front of us, we were told that no cars would be available for at least an hour, the girl on the desk being unbelievably complacent and disinterested. It says enough that this comnpany is the only one based upstairs at JFK whilst the others have their own, bigger offices on the ground floor. Not recommended in any way whatsoever. We ended up cancelling and booking at Hertz instead as we had a 9 hour drive to Canada to get on with. Unsurprisingly, we have not yet had a refund 3 weeks later.
