I attempted to rent a car from Avis and the location provided was not accurate. I called to find the location but the number for Avis rang with no answer. I called to cancel the reservation but again, there was no answer. I also googled the location and the number and all I could find was the same number I had been calling. After at least half a dozen calls, I cancelled through my company website where I had originally booked. Several weeks later, AVIS contacted me asking to return the car (which I never rented). I explained... read more

Customer service is an absolute nightmare and my case seems nowhere close to being resolved. I turned my car into BWI airport on 12/9. I accidentally took the one key fob with me and didn't realize until my flight was about to board. Knowing what I know now, I should've just missed my flight and prayed I wouldn't get stranded because this has been a nightmare. I decided not to miss my flight after I looked on the Avis website and it specifically answers the question "what do I do if I took the key with me" (under the FAQs) a... read more

Terrible customer service , mis-representation of what is being agreed to, failure to provide adequate review. (Signed on their device, no printed copy of the agreement, no ability to confirm their data entry. I rented a car for a 1-way, 89 Mile trip. Agreed to take a more expensive car (because they didn't want to send a cheap car on a one way trip) - agreed to pay $299 for this. I returned the car 1.5 HOURS later following the process identified by the AVIS Rep. 2 days later I got noticed of "failure to return" and ... read more
