Everything was Ok

Good service Would come back

Good offer

The first staff member we dealt with was extremely unhelpful and was not interested in answering very simple questions about the insurance and made the start of the pick up process frustrating, particularly after a long flight. The manager on duty who we dealt with after being fobbed off by the first staff member was fantastic, answered our questions simply and helped us understand the difference between the insurance policies that we booked through Easyrentcars and Alamo - the two companies provide different levels of cover with different cover providers depending on what insurance you book.

The booking was easy enough to complete and gave me the options i would expect and wanted to see which was fantastic. The major drawback is that the Easyrentcars use separate insurance providers for different levels of cover. They used Alamo for a basic insurance package, but for additional levels of cover, use a separate provider for the additional cover. This was not very clear and made the pick up process unneccesarily frustrating.

Anything over 30 days rental is a nightmare with Alamo. For 66 days hire it ended up being 3 separate rentals. 3 days before car return an abusive email sent regarding my expired debit card and the need to return it to a location ASAP as it was no longer a valid rental. Closest Alamo 2 1/2 hours away. Customer Service also very unhelpful. Wouldn’t take a valid cc over phone or via email yet that is how I booked it all in the first place. Eventually after 2 days of abuse and being told the car would be listed as stolen, given an Enterprise location 30 minutes away. The very first conversation if told I could go to an Enterprise not Alamo location would have avoided all of this as would it have been if I was advised of the issue when the new rental kicked in 4 days before being notified when I was at an Alamo location. Certainly didn’t appreciate being told to take the car back to Los Angeles when I was 21/2 hours north east of San Francisco. I don’t know whether it is a California thing, but lack of service and rudeness seems the norm as well as abuse especially when I speak perfect English but they don’t care and “what” being yelled at me takes up most of the conversation which they then just make up what they want.

Excellent service and total ease of booking. excellent comprehensive information regarding pickup etc and advising prior that Alamo May require the rental to be split as over 30 days.

Dislike: Make it easier to refund cash deposit

Like: Great selection of vehicles and good value.
Dislike: First rep tried to upsell an upgrade and goes onto insisting on a Chinese driver's license even though I had a voucher clearly stating that a US or Canadian driver's license is acceptable. He didn't make much effort to help and sent me to wait in line again at Customer Service counter, where the service rep was a lot more helpful and straighten out the issue by doing a simple check on the order comments.
