They literally charged me for items I didn't agree to. Budget Case: 79716872 Reservation: 40238280US5 Rental Agreement: U218994193 In my recent car rental (ref 12794843 from QEEQ, searched through Kayak), I was charged $381.80 and paid in advance. The bill showed $0 due at pickup. From the vendor, Budget, I received another charge of $263 upon returning the vehicle. For refueling option and an upgrade, I had agreed to neither at pickup. The car was a "mystery car" booked through QEEQ - I had no choice in the vehicle selection, let alone on any upgrade. I specifically declined the refueling option, and returned the vehicle with a full tank.Reviewed 24 Feb 2026

This was the absolute worst experience I have ever had with renting a car. I had to wait over an hour for the budget employee to find a car for me that I had already reserved. By the time I finally got a car it was not the model I asked for and the car was disgusting and very dirty. Hair all over the seats and it smelled bad. I will never use Budget at the St Louis airport again.Reviewed 19 Feb 2026

I was paying with a debit card, and due to the fact that I didn't have a credit card they charged me an additional $30 per day for insurance. I was not informed before my rental until I was already there. My mother was extremely sick and I needed to drive to see her, and they were holding this car until I got charged more than advertized.Reviewed 16 Feb 2026

Took 45 min to get to the desk to get my car. There were only two agents and 30 people trying to get a car. I will never use this service in STL again.Reviewed 8 Feb 2026

I had the most horrible time getting to budget. The shuttles at the st.Louis airport were all separate so you had to take a shuttle to each company so I had to take 3 shuttles with a baby in a stroller/car seat. The online process was confusing it automatically put me back in St. Louis for drop off so I had to drive 2 and half hours to save 669.00. When I called customer service you can’t understand any of the people on the phone and they give you the wrong info as far as fees go which was scary because I was told I would be charged 900 at the end I was only charged 350. It was a huge mess. I am so dissatisfied and stressed out from the whole situation. On top of that the service desk person at the airport was not helpful at all to get the rental.Reviewed 4 Aug 2025

The confirmation did not clearly state that I could use the fastbreak pass so I waited on line for over 30 minutes to check in when I could've gone straight to the front. The agent who checked me in did not even tell me that I had a hybrid vehicle. I was unsure if it needed to be charged before returning it.Reviewed 14 Jul 2025
