Super long wait at Chicago Airport pickup. About 1:30. One counter for both Thrifty AND Dollar, with 2-3 clerks. Clerk's instructions about fuel prepaying and toll paying were unclear, and when I asked for her to repeat, she just said "Whatever, just take care of it". Probably just wanted to get over the huge queue and I get that, but still really bad customer service. She asked for me to write down my personal information on a boarding pass-like paper, with address, email and phone, when other companies around have a QR code for you to scan and enter these details in advance. Could be good for time saving in case of big queue ups like this was...Reviewed 2022 Jul 31

I got overcharged than what's on my receipt and don't know why. I don't mean the deposit which was refunded. I returned it with more fuel than I started with. So this is a scam rental car company that I will never use again for the $20 overcharge. Good luck loosing a customer for $20Reviewed 2022 Jul 15

There was a line of 100 people and only two employees working behind the counter at O'HARE location in Chicago ( meanwhile the other car rental companies next to them had 5 or 6 people working behind the counter) .. I waited in line 2 hours and 30 minutes and it was miserable because I already had a reservation at noon because I had to to to a wedding that day like 4 hours away .. A lots of nasty actitud from the people working for "thrifty" .. on top of that they FORCE me to pay an extra 30 dollars a day for my car rental otherwise I'll have to wait for an undisclosed amount of time because according to them they didn't have cars available. But after I paid the extra money the car was available . This was so disrespectfulReviewed 2022 Jul 05

Travel plans changed two months in advance and I still couldn't cancel. Had to absorb the cost without picking up the car.Reviewed 2022 May 31

There was rubbish including candy wrappers in the rear 2. the front floor and mats were soaking wet and we had to run a fan in the car overnight to dry it out. 3. There was white writing on the left passenger window that we couldnt remove.Reviewed 2022 Apr 24
