      I called the number for the local branch to reserve a car. They said they could not pick me up and that I would need to **** there (all the commercials say "We'll pick you up"). When I got there I was told there were no cars available. I showed them the confirmation email and was told a confirmation dose not mean you get a car. I called the corporate number and they told me they could change my reservation to a different location and that I could **** to the new location. When I asked how can I be sure I will get a car at the new location I was told I would receive a confirmation. I explained how the current confirmation was treated and they told me "Well that happens sometimes". I had to spend over $50 in **** rides to to and from Enterprise and did not receive a car that was confirmed to be available both on the phone and through email before I went there.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The issue is not resolved. I have yet to talk to the business. I have only received calls during my working hours when I am unable to talk on the phone. So far when I have returned calls they have been sent to voicemail. Hopefully the matter can be resolved shortly, but at this point it has not.

      On 3/25/25 I reserved a C8 Corvette, solely due to currently building one to purchase. I thought I had an opportunity to rent one prior to purchase. On 3/31/25, my flights were delayed three times. I called them to confirm my reservation was still good being that I was held up at the airport in ***, and was told by customer service not to worry because my reservation would be there when I got there, and I had 24 hours from the time of reservation pick up to still get my vehicle. I arrived and took the shuttle straight to the car rental garage as instructed, and there was a sign directing me to another car rental company because they had left, when they said theyd still be there. Its late, Im tired, and the two women are acting immature and unprofessional. They finally do their job but say my vehicle is locked. I explained to them the situation, they laughed and said yeah, they always leave early and were stuck doing their work. A manager arrived and said there was nothing he could do, but give another luxury vehicle, which does me no good. I didnt want any other luxury car, I chose this car for a specific reason. They also said they couldnt change my reservation to a cheap vehicle, but enterprise would contact me first thing in the morning. Im stranded at the airport an hour and a half away from my destination, being FORCED to accept a car I didnt want and charged $1501.56.! The manager said for my inconvenience they would contact me first thing in the morning and have someone bring me the correct vehicle . It is now almost noon and I havent heard from Enterprise. I called again this morning and customer service confirmed the issue was documented but didnt understand themselves why it hadnt been resolved. At this point I just want my money back and them to come get this vehicle as I dont have a means to bring it back and get back to my destination. They keep ruining trip experiences for me. I think Im done done this time.

      On January 26, 2025, I made a reservation for a premium 8-passenger SUV. The total cost was $654.41. My confirmation number was **********. The Enterprise pickup location was ***************************. My reservation was for 3/8/25 - 3/14/25.On March 5, 2025, I called the pickup location to confirm my reservation and verify my car would be available. I was told the car would be available and that I would have 3 models to choose from: **** Expedition Max, Jeep Wagoneer, or a Suburban. I was also advised to arrive 30 minutes earlier than my reservation 11:30am since the location closed at noon. On March 8, 2025, I arrived to pickup the rental car at 11:20am and was told they did not have an 8-passenger car. We were also advised they could not allow us to rent 2 cars to accommodate my party of 8 passengers. **** ******, the area manager, was called and he told me to go to the ***************************** where they "should" have an 8-passenger car. He also stated my cost would be higher but he would reimburse me the difference. There were no 8-passenger SUVs available at the airport. The airport area manager was contacted and I was told he would call **** ******. I also called the national Enterprise number to get assistance. Ultimately, I never heard from **** ****** or anyone else at Enterprise. Fortunately, the rental service agent, ********, was able to rent me 2 cars, but I was charged $1156. Additionally, I had to pay to gas two cars driving to and from ******* to *******. We paid an additional $169 for gas and we did not have the convenience of alternating drivers since we needed a dedicated driver for both cars. To this day, I have received no response or feedback to my issue. **** ****** made no attempts to contact me or provide any resolution to the problem. I am asking for a complete refund for my rental fees and reimbursement for gas and parking fees. Total owed is $776.16 (2 cars); $169 (extra gas); $25 (extra parking fees: $970.16

      On Dec. 31, 2024, I rented a vehicle for a one way out of town trip for $186.49 and had made the reservation online with an afterhours drop off. I dropped the car off on Jan. 1, 2025, and the next day was charged for a 2 day rental. The enterprise at the drop off location said they would support the charge being dropped but said I had to go through the ************, **, office since the contract was through them. I called 3 times over multiple days and asked to speak to the manager *****. I was told he would call me back and I never received a call. I am still waiting for them to return my message.

      Thank you for the assistance. I was contacted by another manager today and the overcharge was corrected and he apologized for the lack of contact and would follow up with his employees to see what happened.

      I rent once a week through enterprise to take a friend to chemo, so I had issues with them providing me a car at first and got that fixed but now they keep taking my deposits for cleaning fees for no reason, then when I ask they say its because I smoked in the rental knowing good dang well I didnt. The rental has no ashes on inside nor does it smell like smoke, so why have they kept my deposit on Nov. 8th contract #** J8ZV and on my Nov. 25th contract 6GSYCM. Im taking someone to chemo treatment so #1 I cant smoke around him and #2 I dont have an extra 300$ to be giving yall just because you think I did something Ive done told all of you I dont do. I have called to talk to someone in upper management since its the branch manager thats charging me or at least approving the extra charges and they take my information but no ever calls me back.. now Ive given enterprise an extra 600$ on top of what I already spend weekly for nothing and no one even cares that I cant buy Christmas because they took my extra money and wont give it back..

      Called over the weekend to see rates, phone center agent set me up for reservation after I was clear that I did not want to set up a reservation. Local office called me today asking if I knew about the reservation, which of course I (suspected but) did not. Desired resolution requires editing online sponsored phone number ad to disclaim that you WILL be set up with a reservation if you call the number.

      Rented car from ********** location through ******. Was given minivan as only option, but promised a different car. I could not drive minivan due to depth perception issues. Van stayed parked in my driveway the entire 2 weeks and my daughter and i carpooled the entire time.I paid gas up front but explained that i had only driven car home and back to them, maybe 8 miles total, and did not feel i should pay gas. After i returned the car, they said i drove 81 miles, basically accusing me of lying. My daughter and boss would testify that i did not drive the car.I would like to be refunded for the $40 i paid. I did not drive car, and i had to leave work 30 mins early every day, costing me money. I cannot believe they are trying to say i drove the car 81 miles
