Felt like a scam, wouldn't rent us the car we reserved because they wanted some excessive documenta

Keywords: scam, thievery, crooks, avoid. This company has a couple different names - Nextcar and OneSwitch. There may have been a third but I can’t remember. They operate in bait and switch mode. You will pay a price upfront (using a service like kayak, extending to something else like Queeq.com) but that will change significantly upon arrival. No insurance is good enough. While standing there, waiting for an eternity, 2 people walked out the door infuriated with the price changes. I would have followed in their footsteps, had I not already been delayed nearly an hour waiting for their ridiculous shuttle to take me to the office from the airport. I was on a very strict time constraints and forced to stay with this service. My $89 rental became $277 with the additional insurance charges and being forced to rent their sunpass box at $11 a day, plus the tolls. If I chose to decline the Sunpass, I would have had to pay each individual toll plus a $25 fee for each one. The exterior is filthy, with trash cans overflowing, the lobby is fairly clean, but bathrooms are disgustingly dirty. I could go on forever about how unhappy I was with this company, but I will just summarize by saying AVOID!

**STAY AWAY** They will force you to purchase their own insurance stating your personal insurance doesn’t have the required coverage (they require $300,000 coverage for property damage)!! Luis’ attitude is HORRIBLE!

The vehicle was not as expected. I was told it would be either a Jeep Cherokee or something comparable and what I received was not comparable. The vehicle had clearly been in an accident as evidenced by the dents of the metal around the windshield (we were told by the agent that a previous driver had run into a barricade and shattered the front windshield and caused the dents). There were still small pieces of glass embedded in the steering column as well as on the floor board of the drivers side. There’s was a caution light that showed two vehicles colliding on the dash which was on the entire we had the vehicle. The vehicles tag was expired (noticed after we left the lot). The pick up location is off to the side in an extended parking location (unless you’re taken there by the bus from the airport good luck finding it). The rental space is a converted truck trailer that barely fits 4 people. There’s no waiting area and nowhere to sit down. The lot outside was pitch black and we had to examine our vehicle with a jumbo flashlight. The agent asks you to sign a screen prior to showing you what you’re signing. When I objected to this I was sneered at and told this was common practice to sign it and he would explain later. The fine print on the website lists the insurance carriers they accept (at least 8)as well as a need for a $3,000 hold on your credit card. When we arrived the list of accepted insurers was dwindled to 4 and a restriction indicated that insurance would not be accepted if you’re insured vehicle was older than 2016 (this was not listed on any fine print only once you arrived at the pick up location). When we returned the car we advised the agent about the expired tag and proceeded to look at the other vehicles in the lot. Out of 10-12 cars all but 3 had expired tags. Overall the rental experience was horrendous. I would not recommend this company at all. Unprofessional and in my opinion practicing predatory and unsafe rental practices.

I would suggest better vetting procedures for the companies which you advertise and do business with. The negative rental experience quiet honestly would make me wary of seeking another rental thru this site.

Car was fine, small economy car. Picking up the car was HORRENDOUS. Shuttle bus driven by non english speaking driver, had no idea if I was on the right shuttle. Got to the container office in the middle of a parking lot, 6 miles away, only to find out that I could not use my OWN Florida insurance with out an additional $10 per day charge, I could not use my OWN Sunpass Transponder with out possible fines, Difficulty in communicating with a non english speaking staff. They video taped the delivery condition of the car, I imagine to scare renters into taking exceptional care of their vehicles. My affordable car rental had extra hidden charges of more than $160.00. Never ever have I had such a frustrating car pick up. Will never go off airport property again.

Horrible customer service! They had me wait in the heat for over an hour. Then they tried to charge me to use my own vehicle insurance. I had to prove to them it was not in my booking that I had to pay 9.99 per day to use my own insurance. They wanted to nickel and dime me for every extra charge. After making me wait in the hot sun because they have a cargo container for a customer service area. I do not recommend this company at all! Stay away!
