Great company, affordable prices, new cars, simple procedures.

The phone response attitude was quite good.

The supplier tried every possible way to persuade us to upgrade the car and buy various insurances by claiming that the car we reserved was not available and offering a smaller one instead. We insisted on not compromising, and in the end, they gave us the car we originally booked! Didn't they say it wasn't available?! The car rental experience was extremely poor!

I arrived in San Francisco already feeling exhausted. When renting the car from Thrifty, the staff told me that I must buy third-party liability insurance as required by California law. I ended up spending half an hour on the phone with the domestic rental car service. Some representatives said it wasn't necessary, while others said to pay it first and discuss later. The inconsistency in information was very poor, wasting much of my time. Ultimately, due to my firm stance, they temporarily did not charge me for the third-party liability insurance.

During the rental period with this company, some toll fees were not settled through the rental company but were instead billed to the address on the driver's license by the toll department. We incurred a toll fee of just over $3, which the rental company did not settle for us. The bill was sent to an address in our home country that we do not frequently stay at. Each time the toll department sent the bill, it added additional fines, and by the time we saw it, the fine had increased to $100. We resolved this by negotiating via email with the U.S. toll department, which finally waived the fines. This kind of issue does not happen with other large rental companies and is very prone to causing problems.
