ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE SERVICE/SCAM ON PRICING BY ROUTE

Far too pushy on extras such as liability cover

I will be writing a formal complaint to you with regards to the customer desk of routes service in Orlando.However, after a long flight from the UK we were transferred to the routes centre by a shuttle. No problem, great service nice driver. After waiting for 30 minutes we were served by the most rude obnoxious man I have ever met. Tried to force sell us additions such as break down cover, toll passes and additional insurance. We refused all even though he had pre printed all in the form for us ready to sign! We explained in detail that we had already taken out additional insurance cover in the uk prior to our rental to cover the shortfall in basic cover provided. The man asked to see this certificate and even had the gall to continually say to us we must cancel it and take out the cover he could offer. Disgusting behaviour which left myself and my wife feel quite threatened. After reprinting the form not to include the items stated he proceeded to take us to the car. No explanation of features functions or refuelling procedure. A Brief walk around the car (in the dark) where I had to point out a scratch on the door and that was it!! He Didn’t even notify me of mileage or discuss existing level of fuel left in the tank to start with. The form I took away stated full even though it was only under a quarter of a tank full.... Another item to note, They also wanted full payment from us again even though we had already paid upfront all costs in January? we had to show evidence of this, (luckily we had bought the receipt you issued To us on purchase prepaid in the uk. Not a good start to our holiday which left us quite angry and distressed for a few days. We just had the nagging feeling we were being scammed by the man and we’re going to be hit with additional charges. This was added to after he blatantly watched me enter my credit card pin into the machine to pay the pending deposit. Disgusting.

Long pick up wait. Will never use them again

This was a cluster mess. We wasted a half a day in order to get a vehicle that would work for our needs. We arrive they did not have the jeep that we reserved, I requested i this was a cluster mess. We wasted a half day in order to get a vehicle that would work for our needs. We arrive they did not have the jeep that we reserved, The vehicle they gave us was way too small, and not the Jeep we reserved , we request a larger vehicle they try to charge us for it , The lady at the counter said she cannot upgrade until the manager got back we come back in 2 to 3 hours , When we return there is a different gentleman there and he tried to take care of us because they were going to give us a little bit larger vehicle. But what really made us bad was as we are waiting for that vehicle the couple next to us who only have one bag in a carry on bag with them the gentleman said sir I’m sorry we don’t have your midsize car so we’re gonna have to upgrade you they have giving them up the big full-size SUV that we asked for three hours earlier customer service is horrible this operation was terrible charge but what really made us bad was as we are waiting for that vehicle the couple next to us who only have one bag in a carry on bag with them the gentleman said sir I’m sorry we don’t have your midsize car so we’re gonna have to upgrade you they have giving them up the big full-size SUV that we asked for three hours earlier customer service is horrible this operation was terrible Then come to find out that there was toll violations on that vehicle

Overall good experience, the hour wait for the shuttle from airport to location was excessive. Also did not know I needed proof of my personal insurance in addition to the credit card auto insurance coverage I was using. Overall a good experience. I did witness the agent refusing people their rental because their arrival was supposed to be at 10am, they were delayed due to flights and they would not rent to them at 1500h. They actually took them back to the airport and refused to budge saying their rental contract had been closed! Fortunately, I was 30 minutes early, but that was also noted that I was early!
