Ottawa Car Hire

Cons: They advertised Unlimited Mileage but only had 300 kms per day. I had to argue to get more kms included which was ridiculous. Pickup was slow and drop-off as well they took their sweet time, so it was a slow process both times.

I never rent a car from them again

Pros: Nothing

Cons: They advertised "unlimited" mileage, which was not true. They didn't save a car that I have reserved. They told me that I cannot switch the name of renter to charge additional driver. They increased the amount of additional charge of a driver per day without approval. They offered me a car with full of scratches and missed two spots of damages if I didn't point out. I never rent a car from them again

Not the best Rental service for short term rentals

Pros: The only good thing I can complement on Routes sevices was the receptionist I encountered with. No pick-up or drop-off is offer unless you're going to the YOW airport. The vehicle that I had smelled like smoke but yet they indicated no smoking in their vehicles. I'm a non-smoker so I was bothered by this. The price quote from kayak.com was different from what was presented at their office during pick-up and I their policy is to make a $1000 deposit which I found was outrageous for a two days car rental. I inquired about the discrepancies between the car rental price on kayak.com and in their system. To make the long story short, I ended up getting the price quote on kayak.com. I don't think I use their services again in the future. I'm still waiting for my deposit to be returned to my credit card.

Cons: No pick-up or drop-off offered, $1000 deposit for a two days rental, and the vehicle had a cigarette smell in it.

poor communication and service

Pros: nothing

Cons: The order confirmation said the location would be open until 11:30pm. They weren't and instead closed at 10pm. I was left stranded at the airport without a car. I had to take a taxi to my hotel. The next morning, I had to demand they pick me up and bring me to the location (which they did, but on their schedule, not mine.) Once I finally got to the rental counter, although I was able to PAY the FINAL bill with a debit card, I could not rent (credit card hold) with a debit card. They wanted a $500 (!) hold in order to rent a $90 car rental. I couldn't use my debit cards, so I asked to split the $500 across 2 credit cards. They couldn't do that either (not sure if it was incompetence or policy). I left without renting a car, angry, frustrated and going to their competitor.)

Cons: They lie .They gave me unlimited But they charge me for 200 km Very bad company

Worst costumer service

Cons: I tried to contact this company a week before my rental to figure out some of the details (where they were located, how to get there, etc.?). I sent them an email on a Wednesday. On Monday I still hadn't heard anything so I called their 1-800 number. I was told on the phone that they couldn't help me because I had already put in an email request. First of all, it should not take 5 days to respond to an email. Secondly, if it does take 5 days to respond to an email when someone calls you should have the ability to help! I promptly cancelled my reservation. Three days later I finally received an email back.
