Pros:

The car was very very clean when I picked it up, which I really appreciate!

Cons:

The model of the car wasn’t super new, which I personally prefer more. It had about 20,000 miles on it.

Cons:

They had two vehicles that both smelled like smoke. The employees “don’t have the discount codes” anymore. Apparently, you have to figure out the code and bring it to them to input. So no military discount.

Pros:

The staff at the JFK Enterprise location was absolutely fantastic. Jesse was the man who checked us in and he really made it easy for us. We made a mistake with the return of our reservation - we accidentally booked a round trip instead of a one-way rental - and he fixed it quickly and with no extra charge to us. We also had tons of bags and he offered to pull the car around so we didn't have to carry them all to the car. He really went above and beyond to make the pick-up process easy for us and was extremely friendly. The car was very clean and ran very well!

Cons:

Nothing!

KAYAK

Pros:

Fast pickup, no long processing at the counter. Waited on immediately and car was ready, not complicated with a lot of questions. The actual drop off was fast, but the first problem occurred within 1 hour of drop off when I received the email itemizing the charges which was wrong.

Cons:

I was incorrectly charged for refueling two gallons of gas, even though I topped off the tank less than two miles from the rental car drop off location. When I FUELED the vehicle I clicked the pump 3 to 4 times to make sure the tank was topped off, and the fuel gauge read full with 350 miles of available range shown on the vehicles computer. I had to call to get this refuel charge removed. Now I’m worried about the EZ-Pass charges not being charged correctly.

Pros:

The car was in good shape, clean, decent price. Overall efficiency of pick-up was OK and drop-off pretty good.

Cons:

Pick-up had a long line due to the several minutes of not sure what the staff had to spend to confirm each reservation. Staff were also apathetic and abrupt. Overall, efficiency would be hugely improved without significant reduction to human value by replacing them with robots. Drop-off was convenient but a bit confusing and without closure (do I really just leave it here?).

Oct 2019

KAYAK

Pros:

The hertz counter at JFK airport was great. The person was nice and it was a smooth process.

Cons:

The booking at Canandaigua was scheduled to drop off after hours. But the Canandaigua location wasn’t incredibly difficult to see at night since it was just a small sign in a window of a building that was primarily for another company. Then the out of hours drop box had no sign is was for hertz. It was plastered with the logo of the company that clearly was the main company of the building. When I felt uncomfortable with dropping the key in an unmarked (with hertz) drop box, I received these crazy suggestions to just lock the keys in the car but that I would be charged for an unlock fee. One rep told me the Canandaigua location was not an after hours location whereas another rep did say that was the case. I offered to bring the car back the neck day so that I could safety and comfortably return the car but was told I would incur a late fee. In all - while hertz was willing to talk to me, they did not seem to have it fully together when trying to give their car back to them and the suggested solutions seemed inappropriate while the right solution (have a branded after hours drop off box) did not exist.

Car pick up at JFK was straight forward. Karen was extremely helpful. Pick up experience was great.

Cons:

Got stuck in traffic & did not get car to dropoff before it closed. Called customer service to find alternate dropoff location. Was on phone for 1 hour with 4 different reps & neither provided solution. Danny (47916) & another rep (N847396) were most unhelpful. Focused on selling extension. Terrible

Pros:

Drop off was easy and the shuttle left timely.

Cons:

The pick-up experience was slow and there were no cars in the Full size area, even though we were told that there were. It took two conversations and a while for a car to show up for us. Overall not a very clear or efficient process.

Pick up was an absolute nightmare. Took over an hour to just check in and another 30+ min to actually be assigned a car. The waiting room was absolute chaos and tensions were very high as some people had been waiting over two hours. Absolutely unacceptable wait time to receive a rental car. No apologies or any explanation from staff as to the issues. When we dropped the car off at the Lagurdia location they had a line of at least forty people out the door. Budget needs to figure out there check in issues and I will never rent from them again.

Pros:

Short line. Hand sanitizer available. In Sarasota the rental car agent credited me for the toll I had to pay at the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel, which was not included in the prepaid EZ Pass (which uses photo recognition for payment)

Cons:

Staff member read a script of items available to purchase such as insurance and Sirius XM and EZ Pass. Hard to hear with mask. Could have been friendlier and less robotic. Purchased the EZ Pass for the week, however EZ Pass on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel requires the EZ Pass device, or credit card payment, no photo recognition. Tool booth clerk complained that rental car companies should know this by now. Had to pay at that toll booth. Also, rental desk extremely hard to find coming in a car to pick up the car, as opposed to getting off airport shuttle. Long walk and no directions, little assistance from employees in the parking lot

Cons:

When I arrived to pick up the car I reserved a week in advance at 9:45 AM, it was unavailable because I was "late" for my 9 AM pick up time. Economy did not contact me and was unable to offer me any assistance. They also stated they do not take walk-ins only reservations, so it was easy to determine that a car had never been available that day. Two other customers present at the time with reservations also arrived to find that there were no cars available. An abysmal experience. I can not believe Economy can run a business this way.

It forced us to take an expensive Uber to our destination and rent a car at a different location at a much higher prices. Will not be booking with Kayak or Dollar again. Truly awful experience.

Everything was great until they stole $260 on our credit card without our permission and still haven’t given us a refund. $260 more than was agreed to through kayak.

i made a reservation online through kayak around noon & prepaid to pick the car up that night. when i got to the rental location, i was told i couldn’t rent the car using my debit card, which is the same card i used to make the reservation. sixt said i could only get a refund if i canceled 24 hour ahead of time. if i book a reservation at noon for a 6:30pm pickup on the same day, there is no way for me to cancel 24 hours in advance. my child & i are in flight from domestic violence, we had to move all of our belongings into a hotel on the 15th, it was the only opportunity we had to leave safely. sixt took 240 dollars from me, kayak took another 30. i spent 270 dollars & got nothing. i have about 30 dollars left to my name. i left an abuser in my home to be abused by sixt & robbed by sixt. i’m so disturbed that businesses are allowed to take hundreds of dollars from people living in poverty when NO SERVICE HAS BEEN RENDERED. i’m trying to keep myself & my child alive, sixt has bled my family dry in exhange for NOTHING & left me with no money to feed my child.

Pros:

Staff will completely scam you on insurance, rate, or both. Be very weary of this place! Multiple people were scammed the day we went!

Cons:

This company should focus on honest business vs. scamming customers in order to make revenue.

KAYAK

Cons:

The fine print says you are required to pay for liability insurance if you don't already have your own, an extra $16 per day. My car smaller, it was due for an oil change when it was rented to me, and there was an alarming noise in the wheel well when traveling on the highway. Not only do they sneak in extra charges, but the cars and service are not worth the price or hassle. I will not rent from Fox again in the future.

KAYAK

Pros:

Staff helpful and profesional.-

Cons:

Fox Company is located outside JFK, small inconvenience is that their shuttle is not parked by the Federal Circle where all rental cars are located and customers as myself needed to contact them by phone so I can be picked up and taken to their location. Perhaps, a better orgnization in time/schedule should be considered. Perhaps, Fox creating their own App for customers can create a more accessable and better experience. Now, the overwhelming ashtray odor in the car seats were unprecedented. Perhaps, changing/upgrading/removing the seat covers can override the odor and provide a better air/odor quality inside the car. Overall, yes, they are new kids on the block, they have potential and can grow to be one of the best car rental companies.

Pros:

Fast check out, good location with other major rental brands

Cons:

Car was in mediocre condition. Probably explains the good price. They tried to sell me a Fast Pass claiming if I used a toll road and didn’t have it, I’d be charged $25. Simply not true.

Pros:

So checkin was quick..

Cons:

That being said when I was sent out to the lot to pick up the car, the attendants were in cars listening to music. One of them refused to get out and pointed to another car. On drop off, there was no one outside. I left the headlights on pointed at the office and it took 5 minutes for someone to come out and check us out. The Kia Sorento had zero options. Really nothing. They wanted $23.95 a day for EzPass. Hertz charges $3.95

Mar 2018

KAYAK

Cons:

We were very angry and disappointed that we were faced with a 145% increase in our cost to rent our car due to the exhorbitant premium for an EZE Pass for the week. We were expecting to pick up our car, having already paid the rental charges and be on our way. We were then informed that if we were going thru tolls, we would be unable to pay cash. Unless we paid for the EZE pass ($226 incl taxes and fees) then we would be charged $25 for each time we went thru a toll plus the cost of the toll. We were staying with family in Arverne meaning frequent use of tolls. We were astounded - how can that kind of premium be added at pickup with no warning (e.g. we had booked the car 2 months in advance with no notice re additional cost of EZE pass.. We were also treated with shame and guilt that we would even question these charges. We would like some explanation why you would inflict this kind of usury on an unsuspecting client who rented from you in good faith. We would ask for an adjustment to the EZE portion of our bill and direct communication with the executive in your company who chose to set these rates. Chris & Charleen Evans

Cons:

Arrived at the airport at 5 am only to be informed they had no cars. I had to beg to just get refunded. The attendant was incredibly inept and indifferent. Then I had to find another car from another agency and paid triple what I thought I would be paying. I will only rent from professional agencies from now on.

KAYAK

Cons:

Your website said nothing about advantage needing a $200 deposit on top of he payment I already paid to you. My confirmation said it was pre-paid in full. I didn’t have enough credit to hold he deposit and therefore did not receive the car I rented. This was very upsetting. You should really state deposit information clearly and in bold when a person is booming through your site. I purchased insurance through your site and would like it refunded ($18) if possible. I wasted my time and close to $50 in transportation fees to get to and from the rental location.
