Locked due to no posts in 60 days. Report 1st post if need unlocked Traveling to a game? Boycott Budget Car Rental

[BigRedMax]

If you are traveling to a Husker game I would strongly recommend that you avoid Budget and Avis car rental.

The reason why I am making this recommendation is detailed here.

 

[SC_'sker]

Welp, never going to use Budget (Avis). Not a chance.

 

[Goal-line]

What a fiasco! Will support your boycott effort.

 

[Cyberbach]

Wow, what a bunch of schmucks! Hard to undue this kind of press when customers can no longer trust them with their quotes and service. Sounds like their customer relations department needs a major overhaul. I sent the e-mail David, hope everyone does... can we "vote" more than once a day?

 

[Ackos]

wow

 

[HuskerNCorpus]

Nothing frustrates me more than when big businesses refuse to do what's obviously right.

Screw Budget.

That's shady as hell. Them, I mean. I won't use em.

 

[BigRedFox]

If you're a member of Triple A you can get Hertz Gold. I only use Hertz now, they have been decent and affordable. I have also never had an issue with Enterprise.

I used Budget a month back and they tried to charge me twice what I was quoted online. I got upset and placed a reservation with Thrifty only to find out at the Thrifty spot they are now Budget. So I went back and got a different agent and demanded they give it to me for the online quoted price and they did. Needless to say won't use Budget anymore.

If I went anywhere I wouldn't use them either.

Wow unbelievable, Thanks for the heads-up Max. I will never do business with them. Good luck, hope you can get this resolved. GBR!!

$299.80 was a stiff price.

 

[FLAinCALI]

Done.

No more budget for me and I will spread the word.

Horrible customer service. Once you get upper management to look at this you should get some resolution.
