Was able to rent a car without a major credit card. They just ran a credit check and were able to use my debit card. Thankful for options like this. The rental car was very clean and ran great. The only reason I didnt give it five stars was the return office was a bit strange. Front door shut instead of open for air exchange as well as visual cues to move forward in line.

Horrible!!! Be aware!!! They turned a two hundred dollars deposit into a two hundred sixty-five dollars additional one day rental fee after stating I should have my two hundred dollars deposit back on my credit card in two to four days. I have a complaint out with the Better Business bureau.

Horrible horrible customer service! Didnt even have our reserved standard car. Had to arrange a new rental on our own through meadows field airport and ended up having to wait a while for an available rental there. The employee at this Wible rd location acted like it was our problem they didnt have the car we reserved. Dont go for the lower prices! Its not worth the hassle!!!

This is the worst business in Bakersfield. Horrible customer service. After making a reservation, I called for a deposit price and was told $150, after waiting in line for 30 mins, the most unprofessional person just asked me for my card. I verified that it was $150 and was told no its $250. I asked for my card back and told her we would be going else where. The next morning I checked my bank account and found that the retards charged my card!!!! My bank was able to cancel the transaction. Please dont go here. The only word that comes to mind for this place is Ghetto!

THIS PLACE IS A SCAM! GO TO THE AIRPORT LOCATION THEY ARE AMAZING AND THERE ARE NO SUCH THING AS “EXTRA AIRPORT FEES” Here’s the story: I flew in from Seattle to LAX for about 3 weeks of work in Bakersfield. Rented a car for one day/one-way from Avis at LAX to Bakersfield after other travel plans fell through. I already had a budget rental reservation for the next day at Bakersfield airport to pick up the car I’d use for my 3 weeks in town. So, I go to return the Avis car, I’m surprised that it’s an Avis/Budget location...great! I return my Avis car and ask the lady behind the desk (heard her name was Dawn, but my receipt said Christina) if I can transfer the reservation from the airport and just pick up my budget rental at this location now. I tell her that it’s prepaid so I only want to do it if the cost is the same. She asks me how much I prepaid, I tell her $450. She tells me “oh that’s without the airport fees, you have to add $15/day to that, over 21 days so it’s really going to be $765. If you switch your reservation over I can put you in a car now for $650.” I asked her “so you mean to tell me that the airport is going to charge me $300 more than my prepaid amount for picking up at the airport?” She says yes, so I look up the airport location and call them, have them pull up the reservation and tell them what she told me. She immediately comes from behind the counter snapping at me “you can’t tell them I told you that, just tell them you want to transfer to this location, they don’t know about the fees!” At this point she is standing right in front of me trying to dictate my conversation with them. They guy at the airport location confirms that I’m prepaid, says they put a $100 deposit hold on the credit card, but that I won’t be charged anything in addition to what I’ve prepaid. I thank him and hang up. Then this woman says “the 1-800 number doesn’t know about the airport fees” so I said “I didn’t call the 1-800 number I called the airport location and spoke with the guy at the desk there”. She immediately caught an attitude and says “don’t be surprised when they charge you with the extra fees when you get there I tried to help you”. No, idiot, you tried to scam me. Stay far away from this place, the airport location told me they are privately owned and they ALWAYS try to pull these tricks on people.

They overcharged me. Refunded my money when I complained and then tried to charge it back onto my card again a few days later hoping I wouldn’t notice. Worst customer service I’ve ever felt with to begin with but I consider that act theft and have contacted the better business bureau. The national customer service line is useless. Waited 30 minutes on hold then another 30 to get a manager and still they try to back door me

Terrible customer service. Was yelling and arguing with us at car return because she wanted to make us get back in line after taking our keys just to get receipts behind people who got there AFTER US! People have things to do and places to go.

The worst after 2 days of trying to rent a car we finally got one over priced. So when we returned it my husband who is disabled forgot his phone and wallet in the car. We turned right back to get it but they said it was left on the car and when he went to move it feel off the car. The isnt damaged from the fall. But my husbands money in the wallet was gone. CROOKS. THE ONLY REASON THEY GOT A STAR IS BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO IN ORDER TO POST ANYTHING. BAD BAD BAD SERVICE
