Overcharged on Currency Transaction by Avis I rented a car from Avis Budget Autovermietung in Berlin, Germany for two weeks in July 2021. The rental began through an online broker, ********, and the price was quoted in Euros. At Avis, the rental agreement was also priced in Euros. We had to return the car after-hours, so I did not receive a final invoice until weeks later when we were back in the United States. Avis Budget Autovermietung charged us in US Dollars, resulting in overcharge of about 50 USD more than if th... read more

I will NEVER book through AVIS again! Beware! The price you are guaranteed online will change once you click reserve. My card was immediately charged $143 MORE, and they wanted to charge $50 to cancel my reservation, and when I called to speak to them they offered $25 off my total. I will gladly pay the $50 to cancel and will NEVER book with them again!!

They don't tell you what the true cost of items are. I was asked if I wanted tolls to be pre-covered and I thought good idea. But what they don't tell you is it 25 dollars a day for that. It's almost impossible to get 25 dollars of tolls a day. If they ask if you want anything other then the car say no. 

Business response:

They reimburse me my deposit after they receive the car. Everything was great. Almost a month later I get a $450 charge to my card from them. I called and they said it was a cleaning charge to find more details call customer care. So I do and that was the first time in almost a month I got the email stating they were charging me for this cleaning. I had to call customer care to get ... read more

Avis rented us a Mazda CX-5 from their 8000 W. Broward Blvd Space 1127 Plantation, Florida location October 22, 2021. We arrived right before closing due to working. The Avis employee rushed me through the papers never explaining anything about the rental process. I haven't rented a vehicle in 10 years. The employee never reviewed the Mazda with us physically. During the course of our travels we realized we had 4 balled tires after hydroplaning on I 95, thus causing us to have to stop and get a hotel room. Is this Avis Renta... read more

The worst Rental company to ever deal with, NEVER rent to them. You will be happy if you use anyone else. I have been transferred 4 times today and they still can't help me. Please pick another company.

RE: Avis Case: ******** I returned my vehicle on Monday October 5, 2021, at approximately 7:15am per the rental agreement. I left the keys in the vehicle per the instructions of the customer service representative that same morning whom I had to call because there were no written after hour returns information on Reservation nor was there any conspicuous signage at the return lot or security. In fact, the Concord Regional Airport was completely closed with no one in sight. The local office was impossible to re... read more

I reserved a car through their online site for pick up at o'hare airport for November 11. When I made the reservation they immediately charged my card. When I when you go pick up the rental I did not have the card I had originally paid with. The women at the counter had me call customer service. Upon calling customer service they told me that they could not release the rental today because I did not have credit. What does my credit score have to do with a car rental?? I would assume I can pick up my car rental that I had alr... read more
