Staying in your Budget

Picking up the car was a bit troublesome, as the staff recommended many insurance options and vehicle upgrades, all of which I declined. Returning the car was quick and very convenient.

They gave us a standard tesla but after a week of driving wound up not keeping the charge. We were driving quite alot from Palm Springs to Phoenix to New Mexico - Tucson and finally had to go back to PHX to exchange the car because it was too stressful having to stop literally every hour to charge the car! The budget team was absolutely excellent in providing great service. They exchanged the vehicle with a long range version which actually worked properly. Honestly tough if youre planning a long trip I would recommend a gas vehicle because its just not worth all the time you will be spending to charge the vehicle - for minimal $ savings. Its a headache

I was apprehensive about using them and was concerned I would be turned away but everything worked fantastic and got such a great deal that I will be booking another vehicle just as soon as I finish this review!

Only the long queue to pick the car up at Tampa airport. Don't really need this after a long flight!

San Francisco pick up was very lengthy. We waited over an hour to be served due to high demand, low number of staff and low number of vehicles available. When we were eventually served we were told our booking was not for that location despite my reservation stating it was. I specifically chose that location being within walking distance of our hotel. We were told the car was the other side of San Francisco so ended up getting a taxi there. When we eventually arrived we were dealt with very quickly though. There is obviously a problem with the on line booking system in addition to organisation at the local branch in San Francisco.
