I had contract for reservation and was given a "courtesy" call saying local agency didn't have car I'd reserved, but I could get another car at additional charge. Agent was infuriatingly insistent that he was doing me a courtesy by telling me he could charge me an additional charge, and he would not honor the contract... when I called Hertz the company was no more helpful... I was told a supervisor would call back, but that never happened... experience could not have been worse

Not the same model reserved. Office hours not convenient. Difficulty getting complete receipt.

I was upset that I had to wait an hour to get my car rental and the person who was assisting me did not apologize for the wait once. She answered personal calls while helping other customers. She also told me that she did not brush the snow off my vehicle since she could tell that I was in a rush. Really this just took me more time because I had to brush the snow off myself. I ended up being over an hour late to work due to this. I will not be renting a car from Hertz again.
