After waiting several hours, it seemed like the people ahead of me weren't getting cars. I was still in line with at least another hour to go. Eventually I decided to rent a car from another company.Reviewed Aug 16 2024

There is limited contact information for Hertz. I have a simple billing question and have had to contact the US office to seek answersReviewed Jul 9 2024

A car was available for me to drive. That was good. The bad: 1) Original quote was for £ 275 - the local Hertz desk charged me £ 691 and tried to charge me over £ 800!! 2) I requested an automatic transmission and got a stick 3) there was a huge scratch in the rear passenger door 4) There was no return sign at the Inverness airport for Hertz, all the other rental car agencies were represented but not Hertz. We had to drive around for 10 min trying to find it, and luckily saw the tiny Hertz sign upon leaving the airport. Kind of a disaster regarding the drop off.Reviewed Oct 22 2021
