Pick up wait time far in excess of 90 minutes - very poor

The Car was very good for our needs and was faultless.... Collection was appalling, was waited about 90 minutes which was not great, a number of customers didn't wait and took cars from other rental companies and demanded refunds the Budget Line was excessive even if they had "staffing Problems" they knew how many cars were due out at that time and should of been prepared - Customers are sick of the "Covid" excuse and that's what it is an excuse

The car I got was a Kia, though I'm not sure about the specific model. I just picked a similar one since I had to fill in a model. The service staff was quite good, but this was the worst car I've rented in 20 rentals over the past two years. Their Corolla or equivalent models seem to be different from other companies, at least compared to the same category cars I've rented before. I asked for a replacement on-site, but the alternatives they provided were even worse, so I didn't switch. The car doors, trunk, and ignition all required a key. It had 50,000 miles, and there were many scratches on the car that weren't pointed out to me. I only noticed them the next day. If there are any disputes, I would definitely bring this issue up.

The entire pick-up and drop-off process was very smooth. An additional toll fee of $130 was charged during pick-up, which is significantly higher than toll fees in Dallas and Houston.

It's okay, but there are too many hidden fees.

1- My flight arrived early by half an hour, and they didn't allow me to pick up the car. The reservation was for 6 PM, and the return was scheduled for 7 AM in two days, but they charged me for a full three days and even made me queue up again. 2- The staff was unfriendly. They added extra insurance for damage and roadside assistance to the invoice. I told them I didn't need it, and they finally canceled it. They told me they added it because you can't buy such insurance abroad. 3- I've rented cars abroad multiple times. Typically, if the same class of cars are not available, they offer a free upgrade. This time, they downgraded me. I hurriedly drove the car out of the airport, only to realize later that I had booked a Ford Focus but was given a Ford Fiesta. After checking on the rental platform, it was indeed a downgrade. Complaining only led to a reconsideration. In summary, this was the most disappointing car rental experience I've had abroad, and it was my first time using this rental platform. Using an agent made me feel inferior. In the future, I will book directly myself. Also, never use Budget again!!
