Good experience in Ft. Lauderdale

It was great to be picked up at the airport both ways by the car we actually rented. The Nissan /Rogue was brand new , it was its first rental.Carlos was helpful and courteous. The only drawback is the SunPass "trap". It was mandatory no matter what. At $10 a day for 4 days, it was still bearable but for a longer period of time, it would have been less pleasant

This is a fraudulent and dishonest company. I will never use them again. They wait until we are brought to their far away rinky dink location then spring on us that we have to pay extra fees that were not disclosed in their booking. First the only employee that worked there didn't speak english. Not even enough to barely communicate. We had to call for a pickup at the FLL airport. He picked us up and drove us to a small office off the airport property, in a run down area. He unlocked the door and let us in to do the paperwork. They tried to charge us $30/day for insurance. I showed them our insurance card. Then they said we were supposed to print out the insurance covered by the credit card company and tried to charge us $20/day. I did print that out and showed that to them. So they charged us $10 a day because we had insurance. I asked why we have to pay $10 for having insurance and they are not providing any insurance for the $10/day. He kept telling me he didn't understand and tried to ignore the question. I persisted that I won't pay $10/day for it. It is a charge if you provide your own insurance. He said "company policy". Then we were charged $10/day for toll roads. I said we don't plan to take any toll roads. Again he said "company policy". We rented the car because it was the cheapest at $15/day. By adding $20/day it became $35/day and we would not have rented it for that price. When we booked the car it said our total costs would be $54. Instead they charged us $120.73. We decided not to rent the car and asked to be taken back to the airport. He said he couldn't take us back and that we'd have to take a taxi. It was in a bad area and we didn't want to have to stand there with our luggage until a taxi came to get us. And we didn't want to pay for a taxi. We signed their extortion paperwork and took the car knowing that we'd dispute it with USAA, a company that we can trust.

I was never told about mandatory fees you had to pay once you got there. I didn't need a sunpass but they charge $10 a day and if you have your own insurance they charge you $10 per day. No where during the booking process we're these mentioned.

There was no pick-up at the airport, we couldn't get through to the car rental company. We took an Uber to the address listed on the receipt, no one was there. We went to another car rental company and they helped us locate your company with a working phone number. The company JC Car Rental was now open but we couldn't rent a car for the agreed upon amount. This company was operating illegally according to state law in Florida. We are owed the deposit and the Uber ride cost. In the end, we had to rent from another company without a reservation costing us a lot more than if we had dealt with a reputable car rental company in the first place.

JC never answered our calls to be picked up. After 2 hrs. of trying, we rented from another company.
