Only the long queue to pick the car up at Tampa airport. Don't really need this after a long flight!

The vehicle is brand new but it could not start on the second day morning after I got it. Although I called the Budget Roadside assistance but the problem could not be fixed. Finally I found out that the keyless system of the key was failure even I changed the key battery. I went to the Budget shop in the city for help but they did not have same category of vehicle for exchange. I only used the emergency startup to start the engine every time in this 2 weeks.

Fox needs to hire more customer service agents. Every time I have had to call them, I have been on hold for hours. They overcharged me from the amount quoted but after being on hold forever, I finally got the RUDEST customer service girl I have ever talked with. She fixed the issue and refunded me but she needs a new job!!!!

The experience was good but the car had an odor that took several days for it to disappear.

The car had auto locks but they provided no FOB so I had to manually lock and unloack the car for the duration. Long line at Tampa to pick up. Two of the four employees were chatting so much that only the other two were actually getting customers in and out of there. Less talking.. more working would be a huge benefit!

The car was scratched and dented on the front back and sides,and I had to go back to the office twice to get these recorded. When I returned the car I barely had time to remove the luggage before it was driven away without any inspection.

Ace, in my opinion, is misleading customers about tolls. We spent 140.00 for a program that we would otherwise have spent $1.50 for each of two tolls by paying cash. We were told you couldn't pay cash and going without their coverage would have cost $50.00 per toll in penalties because the toll booths were unmanned. This wasn't true.There were collectors at each toll booth. Going to the Attorney General with this.

The man at the desk was rude and arrogant he tried to upgrade the car to a bigger one for money. I said I was not interested he then commented ' good job we have little cars for people like you' I thought that was a rude and unnecessary comment.

When I got to Avis, they had no customers waiting and had 5 people all standing having a chat. They kept me waiting for 5 minutes before one of them asked one of the other staff to serve me. It looks like good old American Customer service has gone out the window.

Europcar does not exist at Tampa Airport where I was supposed to get my car. It was very stressful until I got in touch with someone who told me to look for Advantage. Then they had no record of my payment. I never in my whole life had a worse experience.

Car was in terrible condition. There were cigarette burns and stains on the seats. You could tell the car was previously in an accident because of all the scrapes, missing paint, and the car panels kept popping out. They also tried making me pay for the car again even though it was prepaid. This was this biggest waste of time. Then I had to call to sort it out and they are located in Europe and it was difficult to communicate with them. Scammers!

Europcar do not operate from Tampa, instead they use another provider who I was not informed about so when I arrived I could not find the provider. Given a vehicle of the grim the manufacturer but smaller model

The coralla was perfect for my needs. Good mileage and fine ride. Car was a little dinged and scuffed but that was ok. I didn't know that EZ rentals was giving us the car for Europcar so it took a little longer to find you but return was super easy.
