My experience was resolved in San Diego since I had made it clear to the staff at Stine rd that I’d be moving and NOT returning the rental. I came in about 5 min before closing and it was busy so I’m assuming the rep didn’t catch that but I had mentioned it a second time when he was turning the car on for me. Came to find out that they don’t do one way trips and were attempting to charge me $250 fee. Thank goodness for Vic at the San Diego location he was able to understand the situation and dropped the fees.Reviewed 18 Aug 2025

Friendly staff at the Bakersfield location. HOWEVER, the staff at the SLO airport was not friendly. He was passive aggressive when I forgot to bring in the mileage. He said, "Well, I told you in my voicemail message to bring it in so I didn't have to walk out to get it," which was rude. Customers are people with busy lives, too. Mistakes happen. And it's not such an inconvenience to walk out to the parking lot!Reviewed 12 Feb 2025

The woman at the counter told us she not rent us the car because your system was down. We had to use another company and were panicked, and had to pay a lot more money. We’re not happy at allReviewed 8 Oct 2024

They did not have a car available when I arrived for my scheduled pick up. They did not attempt to help resolve the matter in any way. They treated me as if I was inconveniencing them by asking to speak with a manager, told me that the manager was not available, and refused to give me a contact number. Extremely rude and unprofessional. I will not be using Budget ever again.Reviewed 11 Aug 2024
