I think it a dishonest underhand way to screw more money fro customers. A couple of weeks later Budget helped themselves to another $116 saying that the prepaid voucher was only in part payment for the rental which was absolute rubbish.

We rented the car for 3 weeks, returned it undamaged and with a full tank.

The Holiday Autos prepayment voucher clearly stated that the voucher was for the full rental cost, excepting the usual additional charges such as toll fees, fuel etc. We booked a car through Holiday Autos for Budget in Mornington. Do your self a favour and save the headache, go with a different company!!!īudget car rental Australia help themselves to your money - AVOIDįolks just be aware that if you book a car with Budget Australia through a booking agent, in our case Holiday Autos they will screw you for extra rental costs. On speaking to several different employees at Budget, I was told many different versions of what had happened, including extra charges of relocation fee, which were not included in any of the contract from Budget. I was overcharged and extra $600, It took a month of me chasing them up and calling them asking for explanations for my refund of the overcharge, Coolangatta again charged the holding deposit which was to be refunded at drop off instead of leaving it as a holding charge? My bank got involved and things moved pretty quickly from there. Emerald lady was amazing! Had, had to deal with Coolangatta staff doing this before and put an internal complaint herself about them. I would give 0 stars if possible!! Terrible customer service and overcharges without real explanation! Extremely rude older blonde hair lady at the Budget desk inside terminal at Coolangatta Airport Australia, she told me to take pictures of any damages on the vehicle and let the people at drop off point in Emerald deal with it on their end, “I would be covered as it would be time and date stamped on photos” WRONG! Terrible information and miscommunication always go back to the desk and show scratches and damages, they are meant to fix up the report before the car leaves the depot. go elsewhere it will be easier and more satisfying. Budget Rockhampton absolute joke, other hire companies couldn't even beleive there behavior towards a local business manager. and who carries a rates notice on them ? Was embarrassed in front of travellers, who couldn't even beleive it themselves. If i flew in from anyway and was a criminal i could have hired a car but no way i was simple being a local. Then was asked to provide a rates notice or bill to prove i live where my licence says i live !!! Basically because i was local i was discriminated against heavily just to hire a car. Got to counter at budget and had to fill out more paperwork then usual ( have hired many times prior ) all of a sudden had to prove who i was, my phone number, my workplace phone, they checked them all.
