Thrifty

Cons: Service could use some improvements

It's a good thing I'm not a dog. Dog's are supposed to be loyal, and that's one thing I am not -- at least when it comes to chosing travel services. I am a budget traveler, through and through, and I make no apologies. In my opinion, smart people...

Pros: Cheaper rates!
Cons: Blue-Chip.....what blue-chip???

Cons: Fees, add-ons, restrictions ... and a long wait at the airport.

When we were traveling to Boston for a wedding, we needed to rent a car. No big deal, I thought, until my wife showed me the rates we were still spending anywhere from $65 - 105 per day for economy cars. I understand that Boston is an expensive ...

When dealing with any business, fairness and honesty are essential components of any transactions. They are fundamental components required from both customer and merchant, and without them no lasting relationship can ever be built. Unfortunately, these...

Cons: Who ever writes their ad copy need to brush up on their math skills.

Cons: Poor web site, Blue Chip not available at all sites.

Cons: Poor customer service. Need to carefully inspect car.

Cons: Absolutely disgusting (perhaps criminal) service (if you can call that "service").

Liars, swindlers, rude thugs, these are the words that most accurately describe the staff of Thrifty Car Rental at Las Vegas McCarran airport. When I made the online reservation, the rental price was listed at $15/day with unlimited mileage; an ...

Pros: The people at the counter truly seemed sympathetic, but their hands were tied apparently.
Cons: $500 deposit that NO OTHER major company requires & insurance required.
