I landed at the airport and waited for the Payless shuttle van to show up. I saw the shuttle vans for Avis, Hertz, Alamo, etc. No Payless van. After 20 minutes, I tried to call the Payless location and they were closed. I had to rent another car from a company that was actually open (Avis). Please refund me my money for this rental since they were closed and I never picked up a car from them. Thanks.Reviewed 2024 Apr 05

Pros:Staff was incredibly friendly and easy to get the car at drop off and pick up.Cons:Pick Up at airport was much less than the other rental car companies. This company was MUCH farther than many of the other rental car companies and should be advertised as on site of the airport. Many of the other companies you can walk from the terminal to the rental company (and they had vans picking up 3-4x as much as this company) but this was at least a 5-10 minute drive.Reviewed 2021 Apr 25

Pros:There were no staff. There was no shuttle. No one answered the phone. I finally got some central office which sent me to the Budget rent-a car office which said it did not deal with Payless.Cons:Everything. In the absence of the promised rental car from Payless I had to rent one from Avis. I was lucky to get that and avoid a completely useless trip.Reviewed 2021 Apr 09

Top tips for renting a car from Payless in Philadelphia

  • Going through toll lanes in Philadelphia in a rental car can be tricky. To avoid the hassle of possibly getting a ticket, Payless offers the service of a Payless e-Toll when you book with Payless car rentals in Philadelphia. With this program, Payless will add the total cost of tolls accrued plus a small daily fee for every day that you go through a toll booth to your final bill. If you go through a toll booth in a Payless rental, you'll be automatically enrolled in the Payless e-Toll services unless you opt out of e-Toll at the time of your rental.
