I reserved a "full sized" car, impala or equivalent (I thought) on January 23 of this year. i arrived at Minneapolis airport and at the hertz area I "talked to" a man thru a video kiosk. I told him I was tall and needed leg room.

I told him that a Chevrolet Malibu did not have enough leg room. that was why I asked for an impala. He then said "how about an XLA 350? (or some such nomenclature) and assured me it would have ample leg room. ".

I don't recall him ever saying anything about the cost. I did not know it was a Mercedes until I stepped outside to find it in its numbered stall. 03 for this upgrade. I only drove 19 miles and did not need or want a Mercedes and I did not ask for it.

Please review this video and see if I was mistaken or misled.

Urgent Complaint to Hertz corporate office. On 11/11/2015 I received a bill along with a phone call stating that I owe Hertz rental an outstanding balance around $461.00. The car I rented was due to an accident in August 2015. I have called your company several times and have been hang up on a rudely dealt with. I have tried to explain to several of the customer service staff that this bill should not be on my credit and why did someone viscously apply an outstanding amount on my card. On 10/13/2015 (602.31) it was debited from my account that payment also cleared in its entirety.

I ask for your company to do a thorough investigation as to how this may have happened to me and frustration I have been going through for the last 3 months with hertz. I went to the Hertz rental located at 6455…

I booked a one day rental, for FLL airport pickup, and selected a small car, about 38.00 per day. At check in, the agent offered an "upgrade" to a Mercedes for 50.00. Nice I thought. o.k. I declined saying that it seemed too good to be true and if I was late returning the car, what then ?. No problem he says he will give me that allowance. Still skeptical I accepted. Took the main insurance option and left. I returned the car an hour late next day and was in a hurry so no time to review the bill until I got my CC statement. My 38.00 selection turned into a 298.00 upgrade.

When I called Hertz to complain, the customer service agent simply read off a list of their charges, like it was a Court Prosecutor reading off a list of stolen property. Yes upgrade 50.00 gas something else, insurance…

I rented a car for four days from Hertz in NC. Winter storm Jonas started making its way through and my flight was cancelled three times. I was going to be stranded for multiple days. I called Hertz to see if I could keep the car one extra day so I could drive home before the weather got bad. They wanted $600 to take the car an extra day and drive it from Raleigh to Jacksonville the same day. I am Gold Member which made zero difference.

I went online to check competitors and found National was only $160 for the same exact situation. When I dropped off the car at Hertz it had already started snowing and sleeting. So I thought I would give them one more chance. I talked to the lady behind the counter who said they had tons of no shows and cancellations. The lot was packed with hundreds of…

I had a car accident. My insurance has an arrangement with Hertz for a reduced daily rental rate. I picked up the car and had to pay a $50 deposit which I put on my credit card. I thought my insurance was paying 100% for the rental which I had from 12/11/15-1/4/16. On 1/8/2016 Hertz charged my card for $124.40 and then again yesterday 1/19/2016$28.75. For Miscellaneous fees and Tolls. Upon further research from my insurance they were informed customers have to pay the taxes on the rental cars. I have an EZ tag and had the rental car added to my account.

I emailed and called on 1/8 requesting a detailed break down of charges as well as the tolls. I was sent of copy of the invoice which just said "Billed to Customer" underneath the "Miscellaneous Information" section. I spoke with a…

I rented a car due to an accident with my vehicle on 12/14 (approx) and the agent gave me a chrysler 300. I discovered after returning the car that i was billed for $263 to cover the difference between what the insurance authorized and the daily rental price. NO ONE at time of rental disclosed the differential. had i known this i would have opted out of the chrysler and taken the standard issue car. I will never rent from hertz again, this is outrageous.

I spoke to edgar at the sunrise blvd (ftlaud) location and it was like dealing with a 5 yr old, he just couldn't grasp why i was calling. Finally he disclosed the issue with the amount i was charged. At that point i hung up and called the Hertz 800 number to complaint.

I booked a Hertz car to pick up on Wednesday 30th at 12pm, from your Darlington office. I was quoted a price of £178 for ten days, when I got to the office I was actually charged £301, I was not happy in the price but I had to accept the increase as I had plans over the new year.

I would like a refund of the difference. I have all the relevant emails from Hertz customer service confirming original quotes, to confirm this.

I rented a car online from Hertz, and while I thought it was a pickup at Seattle airport it wasn't but that was my mistake The reservation #158025663 was at a Lake City 'Toyota' dealership. I was never told that the Hertz location was in a Toyota Dealership with no signage indicating such. I arrived at exactly the Hertz rep. indicated that he was going on lunch break and I would have to wait! He never left the building by the way. Some customer service. I called on 12/28/15 to see if I could return the car to Seattle Airport (I had been told that the car came from Seattle airport to the Lake City location) to Seattle Airport.

I placed a call and waited, and waited, and waited. When I finally got to someone, I was trf'd and I waited some more, second person and I was trf'd again and again…

I have rented cars from Hertz 3 times last two months. The cars were fine BUT staff at Atlanta hartsfield airport Gold counter was not up to par. The gentleman I spoke to regarding me wanting a key ignition car found one for me even went to find one for me.

The woman acted like I had two heads when I said my name is on board but before I take the long hike to spot I want a key ignition. She said oh go down this row and find a car wth a key in it and acted like I bothered her.

The time before an AfroAmerican woman behind counter was all happy and laughing with an AfroAmerican couple but when I approached her being Caucasian I got the face and attitude. I don't like to complain but I always liked the service Hertz provides and have second thoughts about my future rentals.

We had never ever rented a car before, this was our first. Rental was pretty quick in Boston, told us to go find the car. We got in it and drove off. Thought it was strange that no one went over car conditions, dents, etc. We got to my brothers house 1 hour away in Swansea mass. He met us outside and was horrified at car condition. Dents and scratches all over, car was filthy outside, leaves and dirt in back floor boards, he told us to call in immediately and report all damages since this was not done before we left garage. Again, we had never rented before. We were told to return the car for an upgrade and apologized for our inconvenience.

Lady on phone was very nice, she even let us take the car to providence which was 30 minutes away, a lot closer than boston. But the man at the…

I rented a truck from the Modesto, CA McHenry office on November 4 2015. I returned the truck on November 7th, unfortunately it was after hours. The office didn't have a drop box for the keys so per instruction from an employee from 800 I left the key in a visible place on the front seat and locked the door.

I was also told by the person at the 800 that I would not be charged for an extra day because I got it in before 12 midnight on the 7th. Today I found that the Modesto office charged me til the 9th because they were unable to find the keys.

I will be disputing the entire charge unless you make the proper adjustment in billing. I don't mind paying for the correct services but I find it outrageous that I'm being charged for additional days because your employees neglected to open the…

I rented a vehicle from Hertz in Costzacoalcos Veracruz. I was given a vehicle that was filthy inside and had dents all over it and it stuck of cigarette smoke. After complains about the condition of the vehicle, they gave me a bad attitude but went ahead and switched the car.

They up sold me on insurance even after I had told them that my American Express would cover the insurance.

Additionally, when I returned the vehicle they claimed that I dented the bottom of the bumper. I didn't do it but I didn't make a note of it before talking the car. 00. This place has poor business practices and shouldn't be allowed to operate in this manner.

I'm sure that they will charge the next customer for the same dent of the customer doesn't realize that it is there before taking out. I want my money…

Overall, Hertz employees were courteous and polite. I was upset over the whole toll payment procedure/options and lack of an explanation before I began traveling in my rental car. The rental agent explained the refueling and insurance options but never mentioned the toll payment procedures or options while traveling in Florida. When I got settled in my rental car, I immediately took out the money I would need to pay the tolls on Veterans Highway not having a clue that changes had been made. When I came upon the first toll area, I was very surprised that the traditional toll lanes had been removed and replaced with cameras and bright flashing lights. For someone who is diligent about obligations, I became anxious and unsettled about my predicament.

The next morning in the daylight, I…

My complaint is related to your contractor, who recently took the car washing contract for Hertz. At the time of hiring he declared him self as a Hertz representative and took sign on an employment agreement but after 15 days when I asked him about my offer letter and ID card, he was dismissed from the job without paying 16 days of salary.

I am requesting you to please forward this to your compliance department. All emails and SMS related to this matter are saved to me. I believe that Hertz is a renown company and will help out me to get my right.

Your adjuster Monica Ramirez is 100% horrible! The most unprofessional, lacking in customer service individual I have ever dealt with. She has hung up on me and my client, refused to answer questions or be of any help whatsoever. Immediately argumentative, is that the way you train them? Really?

So your plan is to be so impossible to deal with that you cause them to file on their own insurance? Your customer service STINKS! And we will gladly post that to every media we can!

I had an automobile accident in a Hertz car that I rented in Belgium. My credit card company will pay for the damages but they need documentation that there was damage. I have contacted various areas in Hertz. They all say I must contact Hertz Belgium.

I have sent three emails to Hertz Belgium and they will not reply.

Meanwhile, Hertz has charged my credit card for the damage. I understand that. Hertz will not send me the paperwork so I can get reimbursed.

State Farm directed me to Hertz stating that they would provide me with a good rate because I was covered by SF. There were two locations I was given, both seemed equally far away. I called the number for La Puente CA. I spoke to someone there and told him that I was headed to the collision company, named the place and gave him the address. He said, call back when your transaction is completed. 15 minutes later I called Hertz, and a different person answered, he told me you need to call the Whittier, CA location, it's closer to the collision place. I told him that I had called 15 minutes before and that someone in their location said to call back. He insisted that the other place was closer, gave me the number, I repeated the # back, he said it was correct.

I called Whittier, phone rang…

On the 11th June I picked up a vehicle from the Hertz office Port Macquarie due to my vehicle being involved in a car accident and this was organised through my policy with YOUI. The policy allowed for 14 days car hire.

I was told on that morning by the man at the counter at 11am that if I needed the vehicle for longer than the 14 days that it would be charged still at the Youi rate of $25 to maximum of $30 per day and the policy would continue to cover this additional hire but I would be paying for it.

Youi have only just advised that my car is a write-off from, hence I am still needing to hire this vehicle as I am not in a position yet to purchase a vehicle. After ringing Hertz Port Macquarie this morning, I spoke to another man who advised that this was incorrect, it is actually $55…

On May 14, 2015 one of your employee at the 83rd street location in Manhattan NY 10024 at approximately 10:00pm was fighting a lady. This individual is representing your brand and his behavior is unacceptable. This should be investigated and deal with.

This rental company absolutely is terrible I run a collision office in Houston TX. For starters when calling the Hertz at 126 FM 1960, they put you on hold for 10 plus minutes which is completely inconsiderate and unprofessional, also their vehicles sit here for days upon days before they are retrieved.

We're a drop off facility. Had a customer 7 mos. pregnant had to unload two small children w/car seats into the pick up vehicle while the driver sat there talking on the phone. Very unprofessional when coming into my office.

I always thought that a greeting such as good morning, afternoon, or evening followed by I'm so n so with hertz rentals we received a call that you had a customer needing a ride may I be of assistance. Then perhaps do you have items that I may assist you with.

Rented a car on 10/19/14. Rental Agreement 001845583. Went to get the car on 10/21/14, but the car was not available. I was given another car after completing paper work.

Retuned car and billed $373.65. Paid for the car.

Credit Card showed that I was also billed for 001845583, $368.55. Obviously, I was billed twice for a total of $742.20 for one car. I have made numerous attempts to get this fixed. I was told on 3/6/15 by your Agent #7839 that I would be credited on my credit card for the obvious double billing 368.55.

I have not received my money and will never use Hertz again!

I booked a reservation 2 days prior to my reservation and I arrive to Hertz to pick up my vehicle. The guy, Don, tells me there are no more full size vehicle left. So I explain to Don that I put a reservation for a full size vehicle but then he offer me a compact vehicle which was still too small for my passengers. Don tells me, with a attitude, that the vehicle he offer me is a mid size. It's not! The car is a compact sonic by cheverolet.

So I had no other choice but to take it because I was going out of town. So we accept the vehicle. Once the transaction was complete Don handed over the keys and sent us on our way. Okay, so as I get into the vehicle, I spotted a crack in the windshield so I go back into the building to tell Don. He needed to walk with me around the vehicle for an…

Lazy employees and company....!!!!! I went out of my way from Alabama, to the Pensacola Airport to pick up a truck that your company will NOT supply to this location in Al. Waited 45 minutes in Florida, because the back employee(s?) would not respond to base and another 45 minutes later, because they had to fill truck with gas.

NOW, I can't leave a message for the manager, his center is full and will NOT answer. Tried at least several messages at different centers, none will take messages. FULL>>>, figure that!!!!! LOL...... I'm more than upset. I can't even extend rental, no one will answer and Foley, Al. can't help.

I rented a Kia Sorento from Hertz, and had problems with the emergency flashers going off, and I was locked out of the car. I called my husband and he contacted the Hertz roadside assistance, and they never showed!

Later on, I tried the key again, and it let me in, so I drove to get my husband, and we drove to Hertz to exchange the car. We we're charged for $40.00 for fuel even though I was locked out of the car, and upset that I had to exchanged the car! Also I went in person to extend another week of the other car Hyundai Accent, and the sales associate said she saw me smoking, so I was getting billed for $250.00. I told her I wasn't smoking in the car (policy non-smoking) and she said when I turned the car in, she better not smell any smoke!

Hertz did not use full disclosure when renting me a vehicle. Charging me over $300 for an extra insurance fee of $9/day on a loaner while my car is in shop. Never once told me it was an extra $9/day.

And on top of that I already have full coverage auto insurance. Said I signed the same contract last time I got a loaner. None of my records show me paying anything to them last time.

We were scheduled to fly from Boston to Fort Myers (SW Regional Airport) but due to a connecting flight problem in Atlantic City, Spirit Airlines could only fly us into Orlando, FLA. That meant I needed to rent a car to get from Orlando to Fort Myers. I figured this was about a three hour drive....It meant that I picked up the car in Orlando but would be dropping it off at the Fort Myers Airport.

I just needed the cheapest car which was about $37.00. I understand there would be other fees with it, the usual surcharges and other unrecognizable fees...Ok fine.

The customer service rep couldn't seem to understand I was taking a car from his facility but returning it to another (isn't that a normal occurrence?) Anyway I was charged a whopping $225.77 for a car I only needed for three hours!…

I wanted to discuss my rental experience with you and the issue of the optional damage waiver that is offered.

I rented my car on 4/10/15 at the Hertz office location on 1995B Vassar St. in Reno, NV, 89502. The car was rented through a AAA claim as my car was totaled several times prior. Upon returning my car, I was shocked to realize I owed $139.93 out of pocket for the damage waiver. I was told I agreed to this, and they would not return that charge.

After much resistance to that charge on my part the agent agreed to hold that charge until discussing with the manager who would not be available until after the weekend. On 4/24/15 the charge then appeared on my bill. The only thing I could find that I actually signed on was the vehicle inspection form.

So they expect our customers to go out of town to our competition to pick up a rental car that could be brought to our shop!!!! I guess someone in the Marion location is friends with someone at our competitors location!! They are building a new shop in DuQuoin and I guess that's who you need to work with!! After 15 years our shop will no longer be referring to Hertz we will be using Enterprise. NOT HAPPY !!!!!!!!!

I rented through Hotwire and secured a good price for my rental. When I checked in at San Francisco airport location a Hertz supervisor was the person taking care of me. She told me I should upgrade, and I said that is ok. Then she stated about the pre gas and I said no. She told me that if I bring it back half way I would get the difference. So I took it and went to my car.

The car was beat up torn seats with stains and upholstery was torn and it did not work. I asked for a new one for a person in the lot. We did get a new car but what a joke. When I came back with just under half a tank the girl that checked the car in told me that is not correct and told me she gets this all the time.

Hertz, Dublin Airport, Ireland. April 9th -18th, 2015. When picking up the car we were told to leave the car empty of gas but that it was full now. When in fact the car only had 3/4ths of a tank of gas. We left 1/2 a tank when we dropped it off. We were not told that there was an additional driver COST of $75.00, we only added my name for just in case my husband needed me to drive. Had we known about the fee we never would added an additional name. The clerk at Hertz never explained about tolls, that some tolls have to be paid at gas stations.Since that is not done in the USA it would have been common courtesy to inform clients of what is expected from the country they are renting the vehicle in.

On 12/04/2014, I rented a car at your office at South West Freeway HLE, Houston Texas. This rental was arranged by the State Farm insurance responsible for providing a rental car while my car was in a mechanic workshop called Modena Autowerks off 12506 West Belfort, Houston, Texas. Hertz local office demanded a deposit from me of $I00.00 which I paid in cash and acknowledged in the documents issued to me. When the mechanic completed their work I dropped the car at the workshop which they returned to Hertz office as agreed.

I am writing in to ask why you are closing the car rental office in Corpus Christi, Tx?? I went in to make reservations for late May and they told me that they could not. Being a recent one of your Gold Members I did not understand why. So I asked.

I found out that your plans are to close the 'only' Hertz Rental 'in' the city. Yes, we have the airport site but it is out of the way. Very inconvenience!!! Now, I know it can not be cause of their sales. Why??

Because there has been times that they did not have any car rentals available. This is not their fault but the co-operations. So, I hope that this is not a reason. I know that Corpus Christi is a medium size city in South Texas and we deserve a Hertz Rental office.

I went to Hertz car rental in Sacramento Airport to swap the car that I picked up on Folsom branch that morning, I had to swap the car due to a very strong cigarette smell inside especially when I turned on the aircon. When I arrived at the Hertz Sacramento Airport, I nicely approached the Hertz front clerk named Melissa to tell her that I'm there to swap the car due to the strong smell of cigarette inside the car but

instead of her being nice and saying sorry or saying something like hopefully we can help you with your problem, Melissa instead replied to me with a rude voice saying "WHY DID YOU TAKE THE CAR?! She was confrontational. I still answered her question with a calm and polite manner that I did not smell the cigarette until I close all the windows and turn on the AC and by that…

My wife was granted a Hertz rental in Gresham, OR through State Farm insurance due to an accident. Everything was ok until she returned the car and forgot her garage door opener. When she noticed 20 minutes later I called the manager,Becky, and ask her the retrieve it.

She said it wouldn't go anywhere. I ask her to please put it in the office and I would retrieve it the next day. The next day the car was relocated to a big lot of Hertz's and calls were made to locate the opener.

Two days later, a Hertz employee, Danny, told me they were trying to locate the opener still. He said the car was still sitting in the lot but they would not go look. He said I could drive out there and look myself.

Second car was more expensive. When I received the Bill on 1/9/15. They charged me the rate on the second car for the entire rental. They said I would receive a credit in a few weeks, because they could not change the rate because it was after hours.

We had to get a rental because my trailblazer was backed into by a semi. We always use hertz as does the company I work for. So I thought I would go through hertz instead of enterprise. I guess that was the first mistake.

I went in to receive the car and they insist they asked me about the PDW insurance that was on the final bill, which the insurance company will not cover. I was never explained that there was that charge on the bill and all they kept telling me was it was a legal binding document I signed.

The kids working there had to be around 23-25 and I know maybe they went to college, but as they get further in life they will realize that is not the way to treat customers. If we treated our customers as I was treated we would not be in business.

All I asked is for that charge to…

I reserved a Hertz vehicle and a Delta airline flight vacation package through what I thought was Kayak. Through the wonders of cyber space my confirmation came from "Whats Cheaper". My Automobile was to be picked up at the Phoenix airport on 3/28 and returned to the same place on on 4/2.

Reservation numbers were: G52023843A9, (also see RR 157353276). This package was to be all inclusive and prepaid. 71 for additional services which I did not ask for. I would like to have this charge refunded to my American Express Account. Thank You, John C. Todd Principal Junction Consulting

My insurance company called me on April 3,2015 to pick up my rental car from Hertz in Akron Ohio on Brittan Road. I walked into the office where I stood for about 3-4 minutes before I was even greeted. So a agent name Greg asked if I need help and I replied yes I do my insurance company told me to come pick up a vehicle.

He informed me I should have called first. So he goes to the computer and asked my name. He pulls up the reservation for me and says we have a Kia Soul. So he leaves to get the vehicle. He comes to the front of the building with the vehicle. OMG!!!!! The vehicle is white.

It has grey masking tape on the front bumper and on the fender of the car, as well as something hanging from under the car. So I go to the door and tell him something is hanging under the car, and I have…

Reserved a car rental, checked in online. After I got to their offices was told I could not rent the car without a major credit card. They should have said something before.

2015 First of all when I call ten days ago to make arrangements for a car I was told that someone would be at the location I provided to bring me a car at nine oclock. and the question was asked what kind of car did I want I stated a small car good on gas and I was told the kind of cars that they had and I said I would like a Mazda which I was expecting.

First of all no one was there at the time I was told it was at 9:25 am and then taking care of the paper work then when we went outside it was a Chrysler 2013 it was not what I wanted at all the car was too big for me in which was a inconvience for me to go anywhere but to my first job and back uncomfortable with the car I am very unhappy with the service.

Counter agent at SFO on 3/28 did not ask if I wanted insurance or gas prepay - if he had I would have declined all. He was distractedly talking to a customer behind me, shovedy paperwork at me without asking me to sign or showing me a total.

After a cross-county flight I was just relieved to get in the car and didn't check it. Now I see he added everything possible, DOUBLING my guaranteed rate. Completely unacceptable.

I rented a car for a 4 day weekend.. taking my daughter and young granddaughters to PA for a family birthday party. While going through NY and part of PA we ran into torrential rains.. I had really scary handling problems with the car and at one point thought the transmission was slipping and here we are with a 6 month old baby and an 8 year old little girl in the car..

I pulled over till it ended. I told my daughter and son in law about the problems and a really quick look at the car showed the tires were bald! So bald that we weren't getting traction in the rain so they were spinning when I accelerated..

Not only that, there is no inspection sticker on the car anywhere. I always used Enterprise and a friend said Try Hertz.. Never again.. ever.. When I voiced my concerns to the guy when…

Made a reservation on line. Requested a compact or an economy car. Prepaid $208 with the understanding I would pay an additional $82 when I got the vehicle. With taxes, etc $325 for a weekly rental. Good yes? NO!!!! When I got to the pick up point (Fort Lauderdale Airport) I was ushered to a screen.

Agent was from Hertz in Ft. Meyers. She upgraded me without informing me, I requested Satellite Radio that was not activated by Hertz and therefore not operational, AND when I called customer services, could not get to speak to a live person.

Left several messages that were not returned. Called on Saturday to learn that there is not one manning the phones over the weekend! YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!

First and last time I will ever use Hertz! BUYERS BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I reserved a SUV rental for March 13-16, 2015. I made the reservation on March 6, 2015 via the Hertz website. When I got to the rental car place I was not greeted at all, But I did see the customer service agent sitting with her coat on telling me that they didn't have a contact number for me to inform me that they did not have any rentals avail.

I told her that I entered a contact number on the website and I even received a reminder email about my reservation. To make the long story short, I left with no rental vehicle and I was taking my family out of town that day.

On Tue. Mar 10, 2015 at 5:30 PM my wife and I picked up our rental car from Hertz in Folsom Calif. Confirmation number G49504412A1. All went well until the check engine light came on 2 days later. I called the Folsom branch and told them my problem.They said they were sorry and gave me the number of a Hertz in the town I was in. They also stated if I was ok driving with the check engine light on till I got back it was ok with them. I ask them to send me an E-mail stating it was ok to drive and was put on hold. After a few min. the person came back on and stated they did not want to be responable. I was given the number of the manager in Whiter and was told they only had a compact to exchange.

The manager refered me to the Rolling heights store and was told they had nothing but if I wanted…

I can't give less that 1 star, so that is why they got one start, called to be picked up from auto body shop at 8:12, body shop called at 9:00 to say a State Farm costumer was still waiting, another 45 mins later they show up. I got a dirty car, I was sold a insurance thing they said I needed.

I called State Farm when I got home and I was fully covered, then I called to cancel it, and was told I drove it and I will be charged 1 day, then canceled. I asked to speak to a manager, was told no one there.

I called corporate and imagine a long phone wait for complaints. OAK PARK ILL HERTZ RENTAL CAR SUCKS BIG TIME
