The Copenhagen team was very helpful and responsive when I called about changing my drop off. Meanwhile, no one picked up the phone in the Oslo office and I tried them multiple times. It was disappointing to learn my total price would have quadrupled if I changed my drop off location. Ultimately we returned the car to the airport drop off and that went smoothly.Reviewed 14 Jun 2026

The agent at my drop off was rude. He told me to park the car in the garage and bring him the key. He did not inspect the car with me or ask how my rental was or help. I gave him the key and he said he’d email the receipt. I got no paperwork. He should not be working with people- rude, uninvolved with his job and not a good representative for Avis.Reviewed 13 Jun 2026

Arrive to Avis Liberia to a lot full of Nissan Kicks. Not the car ANYONE in the lobby had reserved. They claimed they were in the midst of a fleet upgrade but when I drive past over 10 days, the same lot full of Kicks were there. My agent was a very nice lady and the whole process was easy but don’t count on getting the car you asked for.Reviewed 13 Jun 2026

I reserved two rental cars under my name back in April at pretty good rates.....when I got there for the pickup in Florence they told me that I couldn't do that....so had to put under my wife's name at the "day of" rate which was almost $1000 more. I shouldn't have to pay for the inadequacies of their systems. They should have given me the promised rate.Reviewed 13 Jun 2026

The pickup and drop-off were both easy. There was damage to the vehicle, however, that had not been documented. The gas tank was also slightly less than full (noticeably so) but the gauge read full when I returned it but I was charged for refueling for some inexplicable reason. I had to call and have that charge removed but I won't rent from Avis again in the near future based on these experiences.Reviewed 11 Jun 2026
