Jun 2017
Pros:
They tried to be courteous.Cons:
Needed to add a driver. They told me i had to come in. I matter how hard I pushed they would not give in. So i went in to the branch. While there adding the driver the guy next to me checked out a car. They told him if he needs to add a driver he can email or fax in a copy of the DL of the driver, no problem. No need to come in... I don't like wasting time, esp for no reason. Oh, and they also tried to get me to put another $500 deposit, and sign a new contract at a higher rate - neither of those did i agree to of course.2.0 Poor
