Delays and frustration over debit card

Satisfied

Quite good. Had two flat tires in between, but the rescue within 100 miles was timely and convenient! Thanks!

The kiosk at the site required a lot of information to input, and halfway through it crashed, forcing us to go to the counter, which was very frustrating. When booking, we had purchased full insurance, but the counter staff insisted we didn't. It wasn't until we showed the English part of the insurance provided by the rental service that they finally accepted it. Additionally, we had selected the option to return the car with a full tank when booking, but the counter staff insisted we buy their fuel (empty tank return), saying it would cost extra to return it full and that their fuel prices were much higher. Not wanting to waste time, we agreed... only to find out the outside fuel prices were half of what the rental company charged. It was infuriating!! The counter staff was really terrible!!

We picked up the car at Las Vegas airport. A shuttle bus took us to the rental center where Alamo is located on the left as you enter. The staff asked a few simple questions like whether we needed a full tank of gas or insurance. After confirming our preferences, they quickly processed the paperwork. We then proceeded to choose a car and at the exit, our driving license was checked, and we handed over the pick-up slip issued at the counter. We started our Western USA trip in a Dodge Journey. For the return, we used Google Maps to navigate to the rental center. Upon arrival, we easily spotted the large return signs directing us to the Alamo return area. An enthusiastic employee waved us into a designated spot for inspection. We had already cleaned out our personal belongings from the car, and the return process was completed in three minutes. In summary, renting from Alamo was quick and convenient with no aggressive insurance upselling, and the service was excellent. We will choose Alamo again next time.

The car rental counter at the airport is large and very convenient. If you are under 25 years old, there is a young driver fee of $25 per person per day, which is very expensive. The fee is based on the birthdate on your ID, even being one day short won't exempt you. After negotiating with the counter staff, they said the young driver fee couldn't be waived but they upgraded our car for free. We got a Dodge Challenger, an American muscle car, which was awesome!
