I like the fact that they gave automatic. They charged me numerous times extra to include mileage that was agreed upon to be unlimited. 3 different charges that total close to $2,000 . They sent me receipts in German. I asked for English version and still waiting on it. I have been enterprise customer for over 20 years but may not be after this experience.

I didn’t like not getting the car I reserved because it was not at the airport and the agent giving me a bunch of BS. After a 9.5 hour flight I had to settle for an 8 passenger van instead of a 5 passenger Ford S Max. Then was charged a higher rate.

It was quick and easy, only thing that wasn’t great was that at first they charged a way higher rental amount to my card (aside from the deposit) then the one I booked it for here on kayak. However they corrected the amount to what was originally booked when they charged it 2 days later. So all good in the end.

Everything was great - except when I returned the car, the fuel tank "didn't work". The fuel kept pumping in, I paid 25 euros after driving 100km from the last fillup - but the fuel gauge in the car did not work, and the level stayed the same.

I truly was stolen by SIXT Main Frankfurt because I rented for ONE day , but they sent me a receipt as if I rented two days instead . Since I returned the car in less then 24 hours . It’s a case of police , so I have to spend time to solve this problem they created .

I had asked for a pick-up at the airport in Frankfurt and finally the pick-up is 20 minutes drive from the airport, this is unacceptable. I had to drag my two children by cab to the agency Sixt. and when I arrived the agency was closed. I had to spend a night in Frankfurt to wait for the agency to open the next morning. Also the agent told me that he was still there when I arrived even though everything was closed.

Took an hour to pick up the car. I captured a picture of a scratch on the car before we began our drive, called it out when we returned it and I was still blamed for the scratch via email a day later. It’s the second extremely poor experience with sixt and I will not use it again.

The location demanded that I obtain insurance and pay USD 500 before they would give me the car since I did not have a copy of my insurance showing that rental cars were covered. Who cares a copy of their insurance disclosures? If I had known, I would have obtained a copy before I left the US. Thus, I had to call my insurance company at my expense and have them email a copy that I could then email to the renal counter. I will not use Kayak nor Hertz for a rental car again and will tell all of my friends to not use them also. Not happy.

SCAM ALERT. We prepaid for our car. Our pick-up was delayed and we picked up our car 3 hours late. The manager told us the requested car was not available because we did not pick up the car within 1 hour of our scheduled pick up time per some obscure policy (despite having prepaid for the car) and that our only option was a downgrade, or we could pay an extra €200 fee for a larger car. The downgrade was too small so we paid the extra fee after 45 minutes of arguing with the staff. I’m very disappointed in the way the situation was handled. I’ve lodged a complaint with my credit card company.

The woman helping us at drop off was sooooo slow. And she didn’tfocus. There was a huge line and she got distracted with conversations. She tried to talk us into insurance which was annoying. Also tried to get us to upgrade. It took 1 hour total and that’s not acceptable. Other than that, all goes well.

The car was nothing like the vehicle indicated on the reservation - it was not "equivalent." The folks at the office in Frankfurt were professional and helpful, but unapologetic about the vehicle and its condition. The car handled poorly - desite having only 23,000km on the odometer - but did get us to Geneva ultimately.

We rented a car for a month from FRA and the process was very easy. The rental drop off and pick up is within the terminal too so it convenient. They also offered full insurance coverage on the vehicle for a very reasonable price. The car was modern, clean and got 500 miles to the tank!

The original Avis representative at check-in had asked me if I wanted GPS. I said no, and although I can speak some German I was tired after a long flight and signed the contract without noting that I was paying for additional GPS that I did not ask for. Upon returning the vehicle I spoke once again to a different person at the counter telling her the situation and was given a credit for the GPS

Turned to be a scam, supposed to be a VW Sharan van or similar, but they said there was a mistake in CarRentals.com reservation with Avis and they will give me a station wagon instead, and if I wanted a van I had to pay $1780 instead of $630. Both are unprofessional, CarRentals.com and Avis.

Nothing. Due to the autobahn being shut down for some security incident, we were unable to get to the rental pickup in time (only two hours later) and they had cancelled our reservation stating we were too late. Absolutely zero customer service from kayak and I even lost the $200 insurance for a car I never got to rent.

Staff was friendly at the counter but the agency was horrible. Ended up having to go to another vendor to obtain a vehicle.

This is one of two car rental agencies that insists that you pay for the insurance policy even though you have other comprehensive coverage - this effectively doubles the cost of the rental. This was not apparent on the website. The staff person I dealt with indicated that it was present in "very very fine print." Both I and the person ahead of me who also appeared to be a seasoned traveler then had to make alternate arrangements. This cost me an additional two hours at the airport when I had a long drive to make after a long flight.

Drop off was super easy, but pick up took a hour and I did not wait in a line.

The terms of agreement for Dollar (Germany) mandate that you purchase their insurance - if you used a credit card for your rental. The insurance is an “option” that must be added at the counter and as it is an “option” is is not included in any quote. It doesn’t matter what other insurance you have
