i did not rent the car from Midway due to the untold mileage restrictions placed upon locals that live in Los Angeles, California. I was informed after waiting more than 1 hour in line that it would be $400.00 holding on a credit card. I absolutely am disappointment in both Kayak and Midway. I will not look at Kayak as a travel search option again, Also, since I did not rent a car at Midway LAX . Kayak please return the insurance coverage back to me.

Apparently they have a policy that you need to have a return flight booked 24 hours before you rent a car. I got there late in the evening, and because I didn’t already have the return trip booked, they wouldn’t rent me my car, and told me to walk to another rental car place 5 minutes away. The people I talked to there seemed to despise their job. Will never try and rent here again.

The rental office was closed at the time of my reservation. I waited for 25 minutes then called Budget. The phone rep said he would transfer my reservation to another location 15 miles away “for no charge” and then put me on hold. 10 minutes later (still on hold) someone showed up. At this point we were running more than 30 minutes behind schedule and I had to press the agent to confirm that I would be returning the car 30 minutes later as well. She begrudgingly adjusted the contract. She told me the car’s fuel tank was at 3/4 and to return it with 3/4 full. When I returned the car, a different agent checked everything and noticed the fuel tank wasn’t full, it was 7/8 full and that I would be charged to top it up. I told him that I actually was returning it with more gas than I got it with and also 30 minutes early and that I should be charging him for my time and the extra fuel I just gifted Budget. Every single person I interacted with at Budget was completely sour, confrontational and trying to nickel and dime me out of time, money and fuel. This was a very expensive rate and at that price point, you really need to show up on time and not threaten charges when you are being gifted fuel and given an early return. What you should really do is say “thank you.”

The worst experience ever this place is a scam they wanted me to put a $17,000 hold on my card which basically covers the entire cheap car they were renting me since I did not take their expensive insurance and wanted to use my credit card provided insurance. Luckily I used Mexcar which was wayyyyyy cheaper and they only put like a $500 hold which was immediately taken off my account once vehicle was returned. Stay away from this place at all costs!!

Europcar’s customer service was outstanding. The only difficulties we had were finding the place (the directions on both Google and the Europcar hotline are incorrect, they are not located in the parking area they say they are behind the station, they are located in front of the station with all of the other rental car companies), and when we were unable to make it to the office before closing due to travel delays, they couldn’t get us the promised rates the next day and we were unable to make changes in Expedia either. Will book through them directly next time as we paid their rates in the end anyways.

The car rental company was cooperative But the problem was with Kayak they did not explicitly mentioned that the rate was with out even basic cover so when I went to pick my car up I had to pay for basic cover also which ended up costing me almost double. Will never book again via brokers as they appear cheap but actually they are hiding the fact that insurance is not included.

The deposit for the car was 3,000usd which you had to let them charge you on a card and then refund later. The process was unorganized and took so much longer than necessary. There were tons of hidden fees they required as well so the price of the rental on the website was actually less than the total price I had to pay.

When I landed, I called to pick up the rental car and was just told they had no cars left and that I needed to contact corporate to get a refund. The agent was very blunt and didn’t offer any real apology. I was left stranded with a 7 month old baby. We ended up having to pay $50 for a taxi to my hotel and the next morning got a rental car from enterprise costing us $280. My original reservation was meant to be $140 For the entire week. I will not risk booking a car again through Economy. I am now having to work with another agent from corporate for a refund and it has just been so much more work.

There was little to no information on how I should find Economy. When I called, the man tells me that 'you know that we don't have your car' and it would take an hour to get my car. How would I know? But if you don't have my car, then I'll take another car from the lot. So I travel to the lot after an Uber takes us to their lot. He meant to say 'we have no cars right now, no idea when we'll get any cars, you may be 2nd on the waitlist, so if any cars do become available, they will be distributed first come - first serve, and I'll be happy to give you your money back now so you can find a rental car for the weekend' instead.

My original rental experience was great. However, my plans had changed and I wanted to extend my rental.

She confirmed that $500/day was the correct amount I would be charged if I kept the rental. I never got a good reason for this. Very disappointed.

The whole $10 per day rental is a scam! I stayed in the city of Fort Lauderdale and I was forced to pay a toll charge of $14.99 per day or I was not allowed to rent the car. I presented the required auto insurance liability coverage of 100k/300k, but it was not honored because description on my insurance was different than required by JC Car Rental. The car was over 9K miles required maintenance with very concerning noise while driving. I found a surgical pad soaked with blood under the passenger seat after unidentified smell in a car for two days. When I reported it when returning car, the clerk said that he will put a note in the system. No apologies, no concerns to renting me a car with biological hazard! Or maybe the clerk giving me the car just put it there because I was complaining about hidden and forced charges upon me! This place should never be offered at any site!

False advertising by Expedia as price $29 per day. Had to pay another $29 per day at pickup. Only after I paid in full apparently as directed did I get a receipt showing $29 more per day owing. Kayak is allowing this to happen and I will never use them again. I rented 6 different times in Europe in the last 2 months and all were as advertised and honest dealers thru different aggregators other than kayak. I just got conned and am warning people to be careful and not use kayak or Expedia.

I booked a car rental via Priceless in Fort Lauderdale at the advice of a friend who said there are a lot of rental car companies in Florida that seem odd/sketchy, but end up being okay. This establishment isn’t one of those. Upon arriving at the establishment, I was asked to pay several hundred more dollars than I originally had to when reserving my rental car. The origin of these charges and my right to decline them was not explained. When I asked questions, I received an attitude and/or poor explanation from the woman helping me. In addition to this woman raising her voice at me when I asked questions about the extra charges and took some time to think through all of the information that was thrown at me regarding these extra charges, one of her male coworkers chimed in and raised his voice at me as well - from across the room. In front of a room full of other customers. Which was incredibly unnecessary and unprofessional, as I was calm when I asked these questions. After asking for my deposit, I was asked to sign and initial the card reader, so I assumed that this signature & initials were related to the card payment I had just made. Wrong. My initials were taken and electronically applied them to various statements on the contract for the rental car that were never actually explained to me, verbally or otherwise, so it appears as though I initialed/consented to each of their policies when that is not at all the case. In addition, I was charged $60 for “SunPass Activation” which was supposedly for them to keep the SunPass in the car active (thereby saving customers from having to pay the tolls when driving). However, when I went through a toll in FL, the attendant told me that the SunPass was not working and proceeded to charge me $3.75 for the toll. What was the $60 “SunPass Activation” fee for, if I was going to have to pay tolls IN ADDITION to this fee? I noticed in the contract that there is an administrative fee for any outstanding tolls that customers accrue while driving the car, which will be charged to the credit card on file when Priceless receives the toll invoice. Given that I paid for the SunPass activation, I will be reporting any “admin fees” for outstanding tolls that are charged to my credit card by Priceless as fraudulent (it’s not my fault that the SunPass was not working properly!). Kayak, please stop recommending this place to your customers!!

1. The shuttle was late in pick-up from airport, we had to wait for 1 hour 2. The customer support is worst, was not able to understand anything from the adian lady. 3. When I reached there, the system was logged in to an employee ID of Daniela, its like anybody can walk in and look at customers confidential information 4. For insurance, it was not mentioned while booking the car, the one I purchased from Kayak was not valid so had to pay additional $80 on spot for insurance. Overall worst experience, will not recommend to anyone of my friend to book car rental from Kayak.

The rental was $29 in your website but I ended up paying $70. The dissatisfaction comes from being falsely misled by your company.

The company itself does not seem to exist - we looked up the address on Kayak and Google and it was invalid. No valid phone number available to call for directions. Drove around for 30 minutes looking for it and it wasn’t there! We even asked other rental car places in the vicinity of where it was supposed to be and none of them had heard of it. Do not “rent” from this place, as there is nowhere to actually pick up a car.

I was charged significantly more than what I had booked the car for. They charged me for the liability insurance and did not give me an option without it. The offsite location was cumbersome and confusing. There was no one on site. They used a virtual kiosk which is fine, but had I known that I would’ve spent a little extra and gone to one of the major brands and picked it up at the airport. The car was about what I expected for a cheap rental car, that in the end wasn’t very cheap. It ended up being far more expensive than it should’ve been for the car that I ended up with. Overall a poor experience and I will not rent with them again if I make a similar trip.

I arrived at 10:00 pm at the MCO, by the time to get the shuttle all the stations were closed. I didn’t get the car and no one was answering the phone. I had to rent a car from Avance for 5 times the money since I didn’t have a reservation. They haven’t even refunded the money yet.

No car was received. Agentless shack away from the airport with no real customer service and terrible policies for international travellers. Go with a known brand. It will save you the troubles.

I was a little wary about going with a local car rental agency -- I've gotten cars that weren't clean or smelled smoky. Black & White were extremely polite, professional and prompt. I was picked up in an impeccably clean Suburban, and the car I got (Toyota Corolla) was very clean and worked well. As a female, some of these car rental agencies don't feel safe and seem sketchy, but this agency was not one of them. I would 100% recommend them again, and I will definitely see if they have a car for me the next time I need a car from LAX.

Car was clean & ready to go. It was easy to move my reservation when my flight was delayed. My only complaint is the "airport" fee, when you have to Bart to target parking lot to get your rental

If you live in Florida and rent a car in Florida they’ll put a 2K hold in your cc and you have 100miles per day limit. So, you have an extra fee for unlimited miles, unlimited tolls plus the hold. If this is your escenario (live and rent to use in Florida) I don’t recommend them.

Zezgo - Los Angeles Here's what to expect: * Wait in line for 1-2 hours if you are scheduled at noon. There is just one to two persons working at the desk and it takes a long time per person. * $1000 deposit on credit card, $2000 if you are an LA resident. They may knock this lower to make you feel better about the extra charge they're about to give you. * "Loss of use" insurance is mandatory and not common on personal car insurance or credit card collision damage waivers. * They will sell it to you. For me it was $20/day additional. (They reduced it from $25/ day) * Need the "declaration page" from auto insurance. It was available via my GEICO app, but you may be able to call and have them email it to you. * They do not accept insurance from Canada or other countries * They only allow one insurance company to be used for the rental. So you can't use GEICO and credit card collision damage waiver together, for instance. I * Declined the toll service (optional). * They reduced the deposit to $250. * They didn't have all the car models that kayak said they had. For instance no Chevy Spark. They said they never have the Spark and don't know why it's listed on the website. CorpUSA group LA was the billing name on the credit card statement. They had zezgo and a few other "brands" of auto rental companies all sharing the same staff and fleet.

The rental agency Victory would not agree to rent me the vehicle I had already paid for without taking 270$ of insurance, despite me showing proof that my personal insurance was covering me for any rental issues…Maurizio told me if I don’t pay it I cannot have the car! Then trying to reach anyone for drop off changes was very difficult and no refund offered on the insurance hen our trip was shortened and carrerurned 3 days early. Feeling scammed and disappointed
