GBWe 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".

GBCharged 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.

GBStay Away or be Ready for a Painful Headache Reservation # AEXP06CCBE Atlanta Airport. I was supposed to pick up a car on 3/19 the location had no reserved car. The service lady asked me to wait for 2-3hrs to get the car which I declined. I asked for cancellation and went across to Alamo where I managed to get a car in 15minutes. To my surprise, I was charged a $50 no-show fee on my credit card. Mistakes happen but this is unacceptable and customer service reps on the 1-800 line can be unbelievably rude. Please refund my account and do not treat customers like this - life is already stressful anyway.

GBI booked a convertible through wisecar… I booked a convertible through wisecar for my honeymoon in hawaii. Upon arrival the agent that helped us, Jimmy-Jack, seemed to be helpful. I told him we booked through wisecar and I offered the reservation number. He saw I had booked a convertible and said they have two convertibles available mustang or Jeep. I took the Jeep and we went on our way. The Monday after we returned from our vacation I saw that we were charged double our quoted reservation and wisecar would do nothing about it. Extremely disappointed in both companies. Wisecar and Advantage scamming customers with a promised low price then once it hits your credit card they play blame game on each other.

GBSLC, UT... good service Our service with Advantage was very good. The problem comes when using an online booking service. We were unfortunate to have used carrental8.com Advantage employees were friendly and helpful. Our car was new. They charged us only for the time we had the vehicle. However we were left feeling violated by carrental8.com Later we learned by our own research it would have been cheaper to reserve directly with Advantage. We pre-purchased our fuel at the rental counter, cheaper than local gas prices. Brought the car back on fumes without any additional cost. We will never reserve with another online 3rd party booking agency again. Thanks for the great service Advantage, we will do business again.
