my worst ever.

Routes is not ready to rent cars to travelers through your website! Counter agent is more a sales person than a customer service agent; their focus is to force the up-sell of peripheral services for the vehicle (insurances, etc.) Routes operates a non-transparent pedatory process. The renter is stuck at their remote location with little or no choice but to buy the additonal coverages and services because renter is stuck and/or eager to leave the situation because the rental process is stretching well beyond 45 minutes. I have rented 100s of vehicles even using EasyRents many times. Routes is the worst that I have experienced around the world and will never select them in an offer by EasyRents again. I suggest that you drop thme from your vendor list for your US domestic travelers but especially your international travelers!

Good platform--I have rented through Easyrentcars on several previous occasions. I recommend vetting your vendor partners more rigorously. Routes is not a good partner. I plan to contact the Florida Better Business Bureau concerning my experience.

REAL EXPERIENCE!! AIRPORT AND SHUTTLE: I arrived at Orlando Airport and walked about 10 minutes to the shuttle stop. I waited at the shuttle stop for around 15 minutes, the shuttle arrived. The ride was around 20-25 minutes as the shuttle visited both terminals on the way to the place. ROUTES OFFICE: When arrived at Routes, there were around 15 people in the room. I signed a waiting list so I was now in queue to collect my pre-booked car. They had Netflix on a TV (but the screen was frozen) and a few chairs, but they were all occupied. They had a water cooler but it was empty, so I stood by the door. After around 30 minutes, somebody called my name and I went to the counter. CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE: Nobody was wearing name tags, but a lady helped me and the first thing she said was: "Which insurance would you like to buy?"... Option 1. 21.95 per day or Option 2: 24.95 a day. The difference was the deductible. I told them I don't want to purchase insurance, I had my own. So they asked me for insurance proof, however, my insurance ID card was not enough. They wanted the full form which listed all the figures and totals lol. After calling my company 3 times and spending around 40 mintues on the phone, I finally got the paperwork emailed over. I saw many people giving up and paying them $21.95 per day, I suppose this is how they get their money! CHARGES: Deposit they charged to my card was $350 based on a $50 rental. They charge 11.95 per day for SunPass. If you run a cashless toll without it, their admin fee is $100 per toll. They do not rent to young drivers under any circumstances. Insurance Option 1. 21.95 per day or Option 2: 24.95 a day I made a video of the entire experience for YouTube. Check that out soon! :)

There are 3 Easy, Easi, EZ car rental shuttles at Orlando. Took 1 of those, wrong location, shuttle back to airport, shuttle to Routes. Very confusing. At night and alone. Not sure I would rent off site again. They also insisted on a binder from my auto insurance company. In MA that is only for property. Declaration page (which I had) is for auto. Finally took care of over the phone. Then the SUV I reserved wasn't available. They tried to upgrade me to a BLACK (in FL heat - no way) oversized Jeep that looked more like a hummer. I am 59 and disabled. I would have needed a step to get in. My friend I was visiting could not possibly have gotten in. Miraculously, the Rogue was available after all. In the end, the vehicle was great and return a breeze. Oh, I was overcharged about $12 from what I authorized over the phone. I haven't called about that yet. Not cool.

Like: Pick up staff was great
Dislike: Faster return

Like: Marlene was very informative and God is in our vehicle rather quickly
Dislike: The only drawback was that it was not at the airport
