i tried to cancel, went back n forth, voicemail was full, and then ended getting charged for the rental.Reviewed 2025 Apr 20

Hertz is terrible. They do confirm reservations even when no cars are actually available. They process the payment right away, and will not reverse the transaction/refund. This has happened to me more than once with Hertz. In DC, Flint, etc Should you call them, they will insist that they can’t find the booking numbers, computer cant retrieve receipt number etc. Stay away from these fraudsters. Never, ever..Reviewed 2025 Apr 18

I rented an EV, but upon arrival I learned that all Hertz’s chargers were broken and the car’s battery was almost dead, so I had to pay substantially more for a different car. After dropping off the car in pristine condition, I soon learned that a $60 cleaning fee was added (despite the attendant confirming that there would be no additional fees). The fee was removed after spending an hour or so dealing with customer service, but it was still a tremendous pain. Avoid Hertz at all costs.Reviewed 2025 Apr 16
