RE: Thrifty Rental - Conf. No. K8420516161 Atlanta/Jackson Hartsfield Airport
Dear Sirs:
On April 28, of this year, my partner and I began this rental agreement , and completed it through Miles Car Rental. Since Thrifty is owned by Hertz, the platform used was identified as a Hertz operation. The result has been unfortunate, at best, possibly beset with incompetence, or flat-out crooked, at the worst.
We both were sent confirmations, copies attached, from Thrifty Car Rental. I arrived at the Thrifty counter at Hartsfield and was presented with a billing that was way beyond the stated rental cost. The cost, stated on the confirmation notices (attached) was to be $418.25. This confirmation cost included the Approximate Rental charge, Airport Concession Recovery Fee, Vehicle License Recovery Fee, Customer Facility Charge, and Insurance charges for Liability Insurance Supplement, Loss Damage Waiver, Premium Emergency Roadside Assistance, Personal Accident Insurance.
I objected to the Insurance adds, because I have full Liability and Comprehensive Coverage on my Cars. I objected at repeatedly, but the Liability Insurance Supplement remained. The staff person then scribbled yellow marker over all the charges, except the actual carr rental charge. Since the Thrifty staff remained oblivious to my directives, I elected to take this up with you for correction. In spite of repeated objections, I was charged an unwanted extra $209.94 for Loss Damage Waiver.
Looking over the charge differences at home, the Inclusions in the "Approximate Rental Charge" did list Concession and Licensing Recovery Fees and Customer Facility as "items that are included in the Approximate Rental Charges." I was charged again for those costs - see the "Thrifty Incomplete RR" (attached). This is a $48.13 overcharge.
I would like a refund of $258.07 immediately, plus any added taxes that were included on the "Inclusions" double charge and the unwanted Loss Damage Waiver. Such interest charges are illegal in Colorado, the Missouri Attorney General might have a similar opinion.
Miles Car Rental has first option on this matter, but only for a week. This letter and its attachments will be sent to Hertz, Thrifty, Hartsfield Airport, and the appropriate Missouri state government offices, if necessary. Please see to this situation as quickly as possible.
Regards,
William Abney

Stay far, far, far away from this company. You’re better off reserving a vehicle with the actual car rental agency rather than this third party company. Their policy works against their customer in every possible way. I had reserved a car several months in advance of my trip and when I arrived to the thrifty counter at the airport I was told there weren’t any vehicles available—they had no inventory, nor did anyone else. I was unable to cancel my reservation or request a refund at the counter and had to contact Miles itself, which proved to be useless. They refused to provide a refund for the vehicle I was unable to obtain without “evidence”—as though my being unable to get the car I reserved wasn’t evidence enough. This is apparently listed in their policy, so unless you are prepared to jump through hoops to provide documentation of being turned away at the counter, I strongly advise everyone to use a different agency.
Furthermore, the agents at the thrifty counter at the airport were incredibly rude, disrespectful, and downright unprofessional. A woman, Cassie, who claimed to be the manager raised her voice at us when we asked if there was any way they could call us if a car became available, as we were traveling with a one year old and could not wait 6-7 hours in the airport for a vehicle (which was later quoted as “after 12pm the following day”). When we tried to explain the situation and reason for the request she began using profanity (“F you and your one year old”) and screaming at us. This treatment and behavior from an employee, much less a manager, was quite honestly appalling. When I contacted Miles Car Rental about this incident, they told me they could do nothing unless I provided documentation. Honestly, in a situation such as this, I don’t know who has the frame of mind to whip out their phone to record someone threatening them. Overall, the worst experience I have ever had, and I do not recommend this company or Thrifty.

I just want to say thank you so much to Karol Moreno for talking to me I was finally able to get someone to help me with my refund. It also came in quicker than I thought. If there’s anyone you want to work with it’s Karol Moreno.

Be very careful online. Pray you never need to cancel.... 20%penalties after helping them help you. Best wishes in you search becsuse this not it.

I made a reservation with my debit card because their site stated that I could, however, they are not refunding my money. It has been almost a month and nothing. I get a different stipulation every time I contact them regarding my refund. I asked for a manager and I am told they are in a meeting. How convenient for them. They ask for an email from the rental company and get one and they state they cant use it. If a mistake occurs I would suggest you forget about getting a refund. This company will not assist.

My experience was horrible. There was not enough detail information about the car rental.

Maria H. was very helpful and patient with handling my requests and concerns. She made everything clear and gave me time to process my thoughts to make sure I was making the best decision.

I attempted to make a reservation for a car, they automated the date after I selected a date. When I got my confirmation I realized the date was incorrect. I called customer service to cancel and the person on the phone explained that I would be charged 20% of my booking still. I booked the car at 11:46am and called at 11:56am. An error that happened due to their booking system cost me 20% of my booking and it all occurred in a 10min timeframe. Outrageous, the person on the phone wasn't the least bit helpful and refused to refund me. Do Not Rent From Here!
