Avoid Fox rent a car in SFO

Never again. Staff was inept, slow and kept trying to hard sell fuel and insurance. They blatantly lied and said my AXA coverage was useless and did not include theft, just to make me pay for additional coverage. When that failed, they kept us waiting for 30 minutes cos “the printer didn’t work”. At the garage, no one helped us when we couldn’t find the fuel gauge and trunk buttons. Just awful overall.

Why do I have to upload the rental contract after my trip?? That’s not a very customer friendly request.

Car was great, it was a hybrid and had great mileage. My only issue with the company is the horrible waiting time to collect your car. There were a total of 3 counters serving customers and somehow they managed to only clear 6 people in the hour that i was waiting in line. Absolutely inefficient and a lot of upselling of insurance at the counter. Just tell them you’re not interested and are in a rush so you need to be on your way.

We had booked a SUV and when we go to the counter we were told they do not have it. We were given a mini van. The car was horrible and did not even have a charging spot. After persuading the staff we were asked to come the next day to get the SUV. It was a long drive for us with all the traffic. This spoilt our vacation.

We expect better service and the booking site should also ensure that the type of car booked is available at the site.

Everything was fine except the pick up wait was unacceptable. We were standing in line for over 1 hour. Despite the amount of people in line the staff was very friendly.

Waited for a while during renting process. The biggest issue was that there was no indication at reservation time that basic legally required insurance was not included in the rental rate. This was not being transparent on the part of both easyrentcars and Fox rent a car. Hence, I had to pay a lot more during rental for insurance which made this a much more expensive rental than I thought it would be. Very disappointing experience and non transparent rate display during search and reservation time. The cost of extending the reservation by a day was very exorbitant.
