I made a reservation for one full day and they charged me for two days instead, and late fees. I returned the vehicle within the 24h period and they refuse to give me my money back. They also double charged by processing the payment into two different credit cards.Reviewed Nov 13 2024

This is the worst service ever. No legit information was provided by both parties. The customer service was poor & hidden fees were not provided or discuss on the website in the full total cost what was expected to be paid upon a picking up the vehicle.Reviewed Nov 11 2024

It was not good experience with budget. Fist they gave a which not I was booked. I received a car KIA picanto, I am 6 feet tall and it was very difficult for me to adjust. I found car wheel alignment was not correct and was risky to drive because when I tried to make steering straight it’s go left. I called their customer service but they refused to change the car. Rather the the customer service told me a magic information, “KIA manufactures this type of car that all car’s steering are moved in left, they are not straight” I had nothing to say, I stopped using the car.Reviewed Nov 11 2024

I was asked to fork out $750 for some kind of deposit?! Not mentioned anywhere that I could see.. The guy assured me it would be refunded upon return of the car, though it’s been a few days now and nothing has been refunded to my credit card. Would’ve been nice to be forewarned of a $750 down payment!!Reviewed Nov 10 2024
