After my flight was delayed and I didn’t get to the rental office till 1 AM. They told me because I was using a debit card. They couldn’t rent it to me nowhere did it say anything in the booking process? I couldn’t use a debit card so I waited six hours for another dealership to open so I could rent a car at the airportReviewed 2024 Jun 16

Budget in Houston went above and beyond during our rental experience to make sure we still made our international flight at IAHReviewed 2024 Apr 15

Experience with the San Antonio Budget airport staff was phenomenal. They were very accommodating and helpful. It was quite inconvenient that they did not have the car I reserved available because of a conference. I'm not quite sure what the point of booking a vehicle is if it's not held for you. I had to go back 2 days in a row after pick up to check if the car I booked was available. I eventually received it, but it was a hassle and interrupted my days.Reviewed 2024 Jan 30

Please remove this company. Do not promote. They did not have a vehicle available, even though I reserved one. They did not accept credit cards. Terrible experience.Reviewed 2024 Jan 22

My price was double the price quoted when I got to the rental counter. After standing in line for two hours. I decided to take a Lyft to see my mother at the hospital. I didn’t have time for last minute hustle and haggling. I would have spoken to a manager, but I was too frustrated and I needed to make good use of my time. As a professional, you should honor the price that you quoted your customer. It was a disappointment.Reviewed 2023 Dec 12

I booked through kayak, which come to find out did not book my reservation at the airport location but instead all the way across town. The Airport location would not honor the price I had on kayak and wanted to charge me 3X the amount for my rental. So I had to pay $30 for a cab across town to the location kayak had booked. When I get there, they didn’t even have the convertible that I had booked and instead stuck me in a horrible 3 yr old sedan that still had trash in it from the last renter. When you put in the airport code as the location, you expect to be renting from the airport location not some random shack all the way across town.Reviewed 2022 Sept 24
