They charged me $38 for being an “underage driver”- I am 51. Realized when I got back from my trip and cannot get a human on the phone. Sent an email 4 days ago, so guess will have to take it up with my CC company.Reviewed 2024 Sept 11

It was horrible. We missed a connection in Charlotte after sitting on the taxiway for 2.5 hours waiting for a gate. We tried to get a rental car to get to our final destination. They accepted a reservation. We left the secured area of the airport to pick up the car. Just kidding, no cars. Went back to the terminal and got in line for TSA. After > hour, TSA shut down with no warning. We were stranded and had to sleep on the floor in the security corral. Rude and abusive treatment by airport staff, including management, made a bad situation much worse. In the future, we will avoid Dollar and Charlotte if at all humanly possible.Reviewed 2024 Jul 28

When we were near the end of a grueling day of international travel and east coast travel delays, Dollar accepted reservations for a car to help us complete a trip after we missed a connection. When we arrived at the connecting airport, we left the secured area to get the rental car to continue our trip. We were informed at the counter they had no cars available, nor did any other rental car companies at the airport. After an enlightening discussion about the DEFINITION OF THE WORD "RESERVATION" a la Seinfeld, we made our way back to the terminal to sleep on the floor since there were no hotel rooms available, either. After we stood in line at security for an hour, TSA abruptly closed for the night, leaving hundreds, potentially thousands, of people stuck between the curb and security with no services other than restrooms. Many people were crying because they were missing late night flights. After sleeping on the floor in the security corral, we finally got back through TSA to wait several more hours for our rebooked flight. Why do I BLAME DOLLAR for this nightmare? Because if they hadn't LIED ABOUT HAVING CARS AVAILABLE AND ACCEPTED RESERVATIONS, which we thought solved the problem, we wouldn't have had a travel experience so bad we are canceling all plans including Dollar, the airport, and the airline.Reviewed 2024 Jul 25

Pricing was alright. Extremely pushy to upsell their insurance and almost made it seem as though if you didnt purchase their insurance that it wouldnt be good enough to rent a vehicle from them. When finally just agreeing to their basic coverage just to get out of there, I asked a lot attendant which vehicle I could take, and they pointed out a specific vehicle (a black hatchback). When i tried to leave with the vehicle, person working at the exit booth acted like I was stealing the vehicle and kept repeating that I can't take this vehicle. After telling them multiple times thats what the lot attendant told me I can take, i reversed the vehicle, put it where they told me. They then said that I could take one of the sedans, then they changed their mind halfway as I was about to start putting stuff in the sedan and told me to take a crappy hyundai sedan.Reviewed 2024 May 03
