My scheduled pick up time was 6 pm. I arrived at 6:03 and Budget was closed and no one was there so I could not pick up the vehicle. Why would the schedule a 6 pm pick up when the leave at 6?Reviewed 14 Oct 2024

The pickup service was fine, but drop-off at the Orlando airport was the worst customer service I have ever experienced. And the only vehicle available was a gas-guzzling pickup truck, which compounded the price gouging for gas.Reviewed 26 Nov 2023

Cons:We booked a van for our daughter’s wedding over a month ago. The day before someone called to confirm and we confirmed the pick up. On the wedding day the father of the bride went to pick up the van and it was not where it was supposed to be. He spent almost an extra hour out of his day having to go to another location to pick up the van. We were highly disappointed after we even asked for the location the day before for the pick up. Very unprofessional people except for DiegoReviewed 19 Apr 2021
