I booked a car a month ago at a very good advanced rate and planed a one week trip to California. One hour before I was to pick up the car, I get a call from the rental department saying they are not relea and planed a one week trip to California. One hour before I was to pick up the car, I get a call from the rental department saying they are not releasing any cars l, due to a technical problem. Upset, I asked if they could write a manual contract. I needed the car as I was leaving in the morning, took off work and am all packed. He said he couldn’t help me. Still upset, Later that day, I had a girlfriend call asking about a rental and was told they were all out. The lady who answered the phone said there was a glitch but they were writing manual contracts and even though she did not work in the rental department, she shouldn’t have a hard time renting the car for the weekend. I got a good rate and they probably rented my car to someone else for more money. DONT DO BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE. THEY RUINED MY VACATION!!! More
