      For years I have stayed in a Hertz vehicle long term. I have never once had an issue receiving points once my rental record closed out. Last year I rented a vehicle under their multi month program for 330 days and received over 15k points. Due to the fact that under multi month i was unable to rent the vehicle longer than ************************************ Oct 2023 I started a new contract (K6342250470) to continue my multi month rental. I recently turn the vehicle in on April 2024 which was not closed out untik the first week of May 2024. Here it is May 23rd, 2024 and I have no received a single loyalty point. When I contacted multi month they said I need to speak to Gold membership department. I contacted them only to get hit with another curve ball which continues to be a trend with Hertz (inconsistent policies). I was told that due to me being a multi month customer Im not eligible for loyalty points. To me this is insane because a person could rent 3 times a year for a day each and based on that logic theyd get more loyalty points than the actual loyal customer giving months and years worth of business? The guy asked a supervisor and came back only to insist that this is the policy. This is another let down by Hertz and shows they do not care about taking of the customer.

      On 5/17/24 I rented a vehicle with Hertz (*********) to take my son to his National Championship game. I traveled with my entire family. This is important because their safety is important to me. When I received rental I noticed the screen on the tire pressure screen. The psi on three tires were 38 psi and one showed 35 psi. This wasnt alarming because it was only a 3 psi difference. Nevertheless, Saturday morning (5/18/24) we drove to the game perfectly fine no issues. During our break in game plan we ran to lunch and at that time the vehicle was flashing a low tire pressure indicator (22psi same tire that was 35 psi day prior). I immediately contacted Roadside Assistance and they provided a claim number and told me to swap at *************************. I drove a hour to the airport to swap because having my family with me I didnt want to drive back home hours away with a bad tire. Once I arrived to the swap location with claim number I was informed in a rude and aggressive manner that they didnt have a single car for me to swap. When I asked about vehicles that I could see there I was told thats not a vehicle we want going back to *********. So I asked why isnt the safety of my family more important they said not our problem but were not sending any decent vehicles one way. To not get into a barking match I left and was forced to stop 3 times on 5/19/24 for air ti get home safely. Ive been a President ****** member for years which means I spend good money with Hertz and proved to be loyal. For the life of me I cant understand why no one at hertz cared about the safety of a family vs a car being kept at their location. This is very disappointing and proves that Hertz as a company isnt moving in the right direction of service since their bankruptcy.

      I find it funny how when I needed help with this rental record *********, I couldn't get assistance from Hertz. But after disputing the charges with my credit card company, Hertz won't stop contacting me. I'm not paying them for my incredibly frustrating and unsafe customer service experience, which I never received help with.On 3.1.24 t 6 a.m., a 2020 ****** Kicks was rented to me. I asked the lady for a different vehicle but she said nothing was wrong with it. That was not true. It had a huge scratch on the hood and the hood didn't close entirely. As I was driving I noticed the hood was obstructing my vision and was in fear it would fly up the entire time. I tried multiple ways to contact Hertz corporate and the *********** where I got it from. Eventually they told me to bring it all the way back up to the airport. I didn't have another two hours out of my trip to return there to fix their error, especially because driving on the highway would be unsafe and they have multiple locations. After many more calls and emails ******************************* at the branch said I could exchange the vehicle anywhere. I went to no less than 3 branches, which all called multiple branches, who all said they had no inventory to spare. I reached back out to DTW and corporate and ******** said he'll waive the first day and I didn't have to fill up the gas. I'd prefer a safe vehicle or not to pay for the unsafe one at all, but I agreed because this was the only recourse offered. Unfortunately ******** did not keep his word and adjust the rate. He also said it would happen at checkout; I told him it did not. He then said it would take a few weeks to adjust it...The adjustment never came so I disputed the charges. A rental car company's entire job is to rent you a safe vehicle. Hertz failed to deliver and failed to provide attentive service at any point. I am not paying for being put in a literally unsafe vehicle, especially after I asked for a swap before I even left the facility and was denied.

      Complaint: 21753153

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I demand an immediate response from this fraudulent business. Today I received a letter that my debt with them was sent to collections. This is incredibly deceptive and dishonest, as I just filed a complaint against them through this BBB process and we agreed they would adjust the amount owed on Jun 7. I asked for an updated invoice in order to accept their response, and they sent one, so if we just made an agreement on Jun 7, why am I getting a letter from a debt collector on July 1? I will pay this amount in total once I receive written notice via email and to my home address (which Hertz has, since they sent a debt collection in the mail but not simply an adjusted invoice) that Hertz has revoken any actions around debt collection and delivers proof and assurance this has not been reported to the credit bureau. If I see a debt collection from Hertz on my credit report I WILL NOT PAY THIS BILL AT ALL and I will file a complaint with the *** and the credit bureaus. You guys need to decide if you want $171.34 today or if you want nothing, but you will not put a derogatory ****** on my credit for an amount you have given me less than 30 days to pay.

      We apologize for any problems you encountered with the vehicle during your rental period. As you kept the vehicle for the entire duration of your rental period, we have determined the outstanding balance of $171.34 is valid. You were made aware of the outstanding balance when invoices for payment were mailed to you due to Hertz not receiving payment because of the chargeback you initiated with your financial institution. Please contact ************* Services at ************ to pay the balance. Please be advised the balance was not reported to the credit bureau, therefore it has no bearing on your credit rating.

      Prepaid rental agreement (Rental Record #*********). Upon receipt of the vehicle, I declined all additional services such as insurance coverage. Subsequent to the rental, I received a charge on my credit card for an additional $366.04. I filed a concern with Hertz ************** Case #*********, who indicated that they 'regret the misunderstanding' and will not refund the charges. I am concerned that their representative erroneously (and hopefully not maliciously) mis-entered the information into their system and they are not willing to refund the charges. They have acknowledged their error and noted that an apology is not sufficient, but have still not refunded the money nor have responded to my follow-up.

      When I picked up my car on May 19 2024 at the Hertz counter at ****************************. The reception handed me over some paperwork with the highlighted portions, and then he didn't explained the highlighted portions which add an extra charges on me, he just asked me to signed the documents, and signed the highlighted portions too. I noticed the extra charges of $177.07 until I saw my credit card transaction records. Some of the charges in the $177.07 is to buy rental car insurance. But I really don't need to since my current car insurance covers the rental car insurance. Since the Hertz reception didn't explain to me that the signed paperwork (highlight portions) are is for buying additional rental car insurance, now I wasted my money to buy the service I really don't need to. So I don't think Hertz should refund me the extra money I paid for the rental car insurance and premium road service.

      After reviewing the rental agreement, the customer was not charged for an additional driver.

However, the customer rented from and Independent Franchise location and not all locations participate in the rewards program. 

      Thank you for contacting us.

      Complaint: 21751175

      I am rejecting this response because:

      This is now the 2nd time I was told I wasn't charged for an additional driver and I was. Attached is the invoice listing the additional driver charge. The response times and answers from Hertz have been highly unprofessional. I never requested a refund of any kind until this point and I shouldn't have had to send over 10 emails with the one single goal of an explanation for why I was charged. Your website shows not disclaimer stating certain locations don't work with rewards. There is also no clear disclosure of what locations are franchises. I want to know where I can find this information and why I havent been able to get any direct information from customer service. I have all copies of the emails showing my questions were never answered.


      Sincerely,

      We apologize for any frustration caused. When searching a location on our website or mobile app, it will show the type of location beneath the location details such as hours of operation, etc. As previously advised, the branch in which your rental took place is an independently owned and operated licensee franchise. As such, the owner of this location processing their own billing and invoicing. Although many Hertz licensees participate in our national pricing policies and promotions, some do not.  Such was the case on this rental.  All national advertising notes this, and the rates for these locations are accessible to our customers through our worldwide reservation system.  We regret any misunderstanding.

      Hello, my name is *******************. I rented a vehicle from Hertz in *******, *****; they took funds out twice a week. I went up there to talk to the guy at that location; he told me if I did not like it, leave the car and go or whatever. So, I decided to look around for other options and return the car the day before my bill was due so I could get at least a vehicle from another rental company. And I did, but Hertz decided to take another week of money out of my account again. For what reason? I returned that car the day before the bill was due, so they were not authorized to take another payment out of my account.

      Getting a charge for replacing the keys to the rental car in the amount of $250. I left the keys with the Hertz shuttle driver ****. Tried calling the Hertz location several times during business hours to inquire about the charges but it hangs up or says they're closed. Called the site that oversees all rental car companies and they say that that's their main complaint about Hertz at that location. I shouldn't be charged when I returned the keys and they the location refused to take calls to inquire about the charges. Not sure what else to do besides file fraud charges if this does not resolve.

      I rented a vehicle for one day on May 15, 2024. I picked up the vehicle at 2:55pm from **************. The next morning I called Hertz **************** and requested to return the vehicle to a new location. I was told I could return it to ******************** Location on Thursday. They said it was open and I could drop it there. I went to ******************** Location at 10AM and there was no one behind the desk for some reason even though the sign and online it said it would be open. I waited for 30 minutes and no one returned. In the meantime, I called Hertz **************** back. At ****** they finally picked up the phone at customer service and told me since the person was not at the desk to park the vehicle in a Hertz Stall and to leave the keys in the drop box. I Attached the rental agreement to the keys and left the car in Stall #**. The person on the phone said they would make the note of that in the rental agreement and send it to the location to confirm I dropped the car at 1030am. Since then, I have been charged $100 each day and the rental is still not closed out. I call and speak to a new customer service rep every day since then and each time they say wait 24 hours. And nothing happens. I call back the next day and they say the same thing. And I still get charged an additional $100. They will not let me speak to a supervisor and provide no explanation. They keep saying it will be closed out and I'll be refunded. But it does not happen. And every day I start over with a new person.
