If you encounter a flooded roadway, do not attempt to drive through it. Turn around and find an alternate route.

I did not end up renting the car. When I arrived at Southaven Enterprise I was informed that I could not drop off on my drop off date. The store was going to be closed on my drop off day. Although I was able to use that day as a drop off date when booked the car, I was told I would be charged a late fee because they would not be open that day. I agreed, even though it wasn’t my fault they were closed on my drop off date. Then, at 4:00, I was told they didn’t know what SUVs were available at that time. I was told I would have wait an hour or longer to get my rental. I decided to leave and not use the rental.

My experience with the employees was fine. They were nice and were able to resolve my issue, which I appreciate. However, I was very unhappy with the overall transaction. I rented a standard car on Tuesday to pick up the following day and have for 3 days, returning Friday. I received a confirmation of my rental. When I arrived to pick up the car I was told they were sold out and that I could be on a waiting list for the next day. Since I was leaving town immediately that was not a viable solution. They offered me a tiny compact car, which would have been too small for me and my traveling companions. So they offered a truck, which I accepted. I do not like to drive trucks, they do not handle as smoothly, they're not as easy to drive and park as cars and they have worse gas mileage. So while they were able to meet my immediate need it was not an ideal or pleasant experience. Also the truck smelled like smoke and weed. Enterprise should not rent out cars if they're not available - it's a very stressful and unpleasant experience that will likely impact my choice of rental car companies in the future.

If they could use a debit card like a credit card. Maybe thinking if it be available to the customers that they could use their debit card to be able use it for rental of cars. Cause some customers don't have credit card,they only have debit card or prepaid card these day. So your company may give it some thoughts into this, it may help new customers to come to your company for rental of a vehicle. Thank you.

UI liked nothing. I had previously made a confirmed reservation for 5:30PM. I approached the rental counter at approximately 5:35PM. The agent took my driver's license and a hard copy of my confirmed reservation. After a few minutes she informed me there were no cars available, and it could be 1 to 2 hours before a vehicle could be available. I pointed out a vehicle less than 509 feet from the counter and was told it was unavailable. Approximately 1 hour and fifteen minutes later the agent called me to the counter, explained a vehicle was available but I would be required to pay an upcharge. She pointed to the very same vehicle which was still in the same spot I had inquired about when I first got to the counter. I had to drive over two hours south of Memphis for a meeting the next morning. I had to have a car. She explained the upcharge would be $10. I agreed. I received a charge to my credit card for just over $239. $200 of which she explained was a deposit. I am requesting a full refund for the upcharge and confirmation the $200 deposit has been returned to my account. I have never been treated like this by any rental car company. I will never rent from your firm again. I am sending out a blast email to all my contacts and work associates detailing my experience and recommending they never use your firm.

Found good pricing online. The hiccup was that there was a 4 hour delay to pick up the vehicle when we arrived at the airport, as cars had not been turned in on time, so we had to use Uber to leave the airport, then return to pick up the vehicle. I was notified when the vehicle was ready and from there, things went smoothly. Car was clean on pick up overall; had some prior dings that we noted before leaving the rental pick up site, but nothing major. The vehicle return went well.

Pros:

No staff was not friendly, Thirfty didn't have any cars/trucks available. Told us we could be put on a waiting list and sit and wait for someone to maybe return a vehicle. This is unacceptable for you to allow a reservation for a specific time and there be no cars available. There were a lot of customers up there waiting. We cancelled the reservation and went with another company.

Cons:

Everything could have been better. I will never attempt to rent from them again. Horrible customer service. Horrible way of doing business. I will recommend them to anyone ever

Pros:

I made the reservation for the vehicle 2 months prior to the pick up date. When we arrived in Memphis Airport we were told there were no vehicles available. The Thrifty agent said they were cleaning vehicles when they came in and it would be approx 2-3 hours before a vehicle was available!! We waited almost 3 hours for a car!!!!! The Thrifty agent was completely matter of fact and didn't even apologize for the inconvenience. I will NEVER rent from this company again!

Cons:

The entire experience!!!!!

Cons:

it was a 3 hour wait for a car. actually, they couldn't give us an actual time on how long it would be until our car was ready. the only good thing was that the lady working the counter allowed us to cancel our reservation without any questions asked (good on you, whoever you are!!). we went to another company and they told us that they do this ALL THE TIME

I reserved a truck. Got to your store and was given a suv. I needed a truck specifically for moving and hauling a trailer. Instead, I needed to extend my rental an additional day, which cost me $120. I'll be renting a truck again soon, but not from you guys. Overall, not happy and out $120 and an extra day off work. Not thrilled....
