Terrible Experience
August 23, 2022

I booked a 8 seated premium SUV, 2 days before my trip, I was informed by Kathryn not only they could not get me a 8 seater they got me a 7 seater Armada(that was little more roomier) but still didnt fit my accomodations but i was willing to work with them, then they had to have it serviced in morning, I went to pick it up and it was not ready after checking multiple times, they said it needed tires and would not be ready for my trip so I would not have the vehicle in time and I was on the mechanics time so It would be done "when it was done" I was told I asked to speak to Kathryns manager I didnt get his name but he shrugged his shoulders and said he cant help me. I had the worst experience with enterprise I will never in my life rent from them awful customer service, lack of communication and lack of professionalism

NEVER AGAIN!
August 23, 2022

I placed an order for a Luxury SUV to carry 6 people and luggage 3 1/2 weeks before I needed it. Two days before the date that I was to pick up the rental, the local office called me to confirm my order and that it would be Luxury SUV. The day that I was to pick up the rental, I received a phone call 2 hours prior to pick up that they could not find a Luxury SUV and all they had was a mini-van! On short notice I could not chase a Luxury SUV with any other vendor. I had the mini-van dumped on me. Upon picking up the mini van, the windows were absolutely FILTHY both inside and out. I had to was them 3 times - MYSELF. In addition to the mess with the windows. Two of the tires were so low that the dash low tire warning light was lit. TOTAL UNACCEPETABLE CUSTOMER SERVICE - I WILL NEVER RENT FROM ENTERPRISE AGAIN!

Enterprise discriminate and are thieves
August 22, 2022

Don't rent from enterprise they are thieves. They don't care about customer service at all. They don't even care they have one star and more bad reviews that you can read. They won't be around much longer thinking they can do anything they want and you have no rights as a customer. TRUST THIS REVIEW

Dont use enterprise
August 18, 2022

I had a confirmation but when I got there no cars. Not one car on lot. I was told to go to the airport. A class action lawsuit should be taken against enterprise for misrepresenting themselves as a car rental when they are not. Not even an apology

Are you kidding me?
August 18, 2022

I only gave Enterprise one star as it won't let me post with zero stars. Yesterday (16 AUG 2022) I needed to rent a car. I called the toll-free number to Enterprise rent a car 0.3 miles from where I was. I picked a small SUV, confirmed the location, duration and price. I called that store and spoke to the employee, He advised they had no vehicles from that location and suggested we use the Melrose Ave. Store, so I called the toll-free number and changed the pick-up location, got the confirmation but when I called the Melrose Ave. Store the employee said they had no vehicles at that location to rent but to try a different location and I called the store he suggested and was told they had more than a dozen people with confirmations but they only had one (!) vehicle to rent. I was informed that calling the toll-free number gave me a person who had no knowledge of vehicle availability that their only job was to make reservations, and I was told there was a shortage of vehicle availability in the Roanoke (VA) Valley area. I will let you form your own opinions about this.

First you can never get thru to the local office and they never return your phone call. This has been my experience at the Warminster branch in PA. Secondly on several occasions I made a reservation to reserve a pick up truck and each time come to find out the day of pick up there is no vehicle ready for pick up. Each time reservations were made three or more weeks in advance. This last time I called Enterprise a week before pick up to confirm a vehicle would be ready for pick up. I was assured there would be a vehicle ready for me to drive. As before I get a call the morning of my 7:30am pick up telling me there is no vehicle available. Reservations mean nothing to Enterprise and the office following up with me the morning of pick up is worthless. Poor professionalism and poor business.

The car I rented from Knoxville drove to Panama City beach had a slit tire on inside of tire. Tried multiple times to get another car no help. I was to be top priority cause of the problem. My vacation time was ruined trying to get a new car or tire fixed.

I've been a member of Enterprise, for many years, traveling back and forth and always receive an excellent service. Derek, has made me deals with administrative issues much easier by always helping me. But I have to quote that Enterprise in 108 NW 3rd St. Boca Raton, FL is the BEST, because of the people. Special thanks to the ladies in the front counter, always with a smile and extremely helpful and knowledgeable. In special, Kyle Smith & Willie. Both demonstrate professionalism and excellent customer service in demanding circumstances. I will continue to use Enterprise because the customers are mostly important for them.

One month prior to our extended families vacation trip, my husband called the Enterprise Rent-A-Car office to book a 7 seat minivan for us and our extended family. We thought all was well after my husband called Enterprise the day before confirming the car was ready. The next day at 7:30, we go to our appointment to pick up the car and long behold, they say they don't have a minivan for us, even after telling us it was ready. They told us that all they had was an Enterprise shuttle van. This van has the enterprise rent-a-car words writing on it. It's ridiculous to drive around with that van. This really set us off after we clearly needed this car and even booked it a month in advance, not to mention them lying to us about it being ready the day before our trip. They didn't even apologize to us which really disappointed us. As for the trip, we had to take our SUV which was too small to bring all of our items, and very tight and uncomfortable for our 4 hour trip. In all, Enterprise is not a reliable car rental company and the customer service was terrible, be cautious if you are planning to book a car here.

I work for the department of defense and I travel often this will be my last rental from enterprise. I can't get anyone to answer back. The car is horribly loud, feels like the bearings or rim is bent. Since I can't get a replacement car I am stuck this rental.

THANK YOU MAX
August 9, 2022

My wife was worried that we would miss our flight because we were scheduled to pick up the car and drop it off in a city we never heard of and get to the airport to return home. We knew no matter how early we left to drop off the car, get to our flight we knew we would miss. It was a disaster waiting to happen. Max to the rescue! He told us he would wait for us to drop our vehicle off at the airport in Savannah which made more sense. Thankful!

Mr. Gierczycki and his staff should be commended on their excellent customer service. They made my first stay in Poland much easier by helping me deal with administrative issues with my Intermational driver permit. Also special thanks to Patryk Galas and Dominica - both exude professionalism and great customer service under demanding circumstances. I will continue to use Enterprise because of the people.

This is the worst experience i have ever had. I was in a car accident and Geico insurance flipped the bill. This was my first car accident did know how the car rental worked. My insurance covered $30 per day they tried to upsell me on a bigger truck. I say sure why not then they tell me i have to leave a $300 deposit. I said no way my insurance is paying so they say ok we only need $150.00. I gave my card then they tell me in another few days we will need another $150.00. I called my insurance and advised them they sais no way something is fishy here. They called and straighten it out. They told my insurance i was not in a Compact car. They put me in a bigger car to get more money from me even though insurance paid the bill. Crooks! 1
I returned the car 2 weeks later they stored my credit card and billed me $266.00 dollars saying i owed for tolls i had my Ezpass in the car now this car had Florida plates on it. They advised me someone left the Ezpass device on so i got charged. I told them i knew nothing of any device on the car fro tools no one from car rental explained anything about some toll mechanism implanted in car. SO THESE CROOKS FIND WAYS TO TRY TO SQUEEZE MONEY FROM YOU ANY WAY POSSIBLE. IWOULD NEVER EVER IN MY LIFE RENT A CAR FROM THEM. I HAVE CALLED GEICOAND MY BANK TO DISPUTE THESE CHARGES. I WILL POST ON EVERY SINGLE SOCIAL WEBSITE SO NOBODY ELSE GETS TAKEN ADVANTAGED OF! ENTERPRISE IS THE BIGGEST CROOKS DONT EVER USE THEM IF YOU VALVE YOUR
