Won't go through Fox rent a car again

30min wait for shuttle, they bullied me to buy more insurance and then they refused to rent to us because my licensed was Australian and passport was US...despite showing them my Australian residency visa...never had problem with any other agencies.

Very slow pickup by the shuttle. I watched multiple shuttles go by for the competing brands before 1 FOX shuttle finally showed up. At least a 20 minute wait. Check in was quick with no one in line, friendly staff. After check in had to wait another 10 minutes for the car to be brought up for me to accept.

Great car....better than I hoped. Took too long waiting to pick up the car after the agreements had been signed...40 minutes or so. And, the agent with whom contacts were signed was told that additional insurance wasn't wanted but still it got added. Customer service quickly sorted the issue out though...very happy with speed of response. Would have been nice to have been shown how to use cruise control and open gas tank. There was no information whether diesel or gas car. I had to guess. Why no sticker by car tank?

Very good...Thank you.

FOX RENT A CAR - at counter experience was poor. The person didn't fully explain the fuel fill-up with them properly but instead decided to charge for the entire tank when we only used 1/2 the tank.

Waited over an hour in line to then find I had to spend another $55 for required by law insurance. The liability laws need to be covered on their website, as well as printed on your confirmation. If it had been explained to me prior to arriving at the rental company, I would have realized that if I had liability coverage on my regular insurance, all I had to do was check my iability coverage levels to verify they met CA minimum requirements. I feel totally forced into purchasing $55 of extra, unneeded insurance. After spending extra money that I did not need to, we go out to pick up the car. This is where I realized that it really didnt matter what vehicle you paid for, as the only two cars in the bay I was told to go were not the size reserved. One was so small there was no way I was getting in and the other smelled so badly of smoke that it would have sent me into an asthma attack for sure. After explaining to the employee the problem, he pointed me toward a car that had just been "cleaned" (very loose term) and driven up. It was the size requested and didnt smell of smoke so we took it. I've never seen a more damaged vehicle for rent anywhere. Not only had it already been wrecked on the back right side, every door and bumper was marred and dented. The windshield had several chipped niches out of it. All of which was marked on my paperwork by me (only the wreck marked by Fox). Frustrated and tired we drove the car off the lot hoping it was all just cosmetic. The was a rattle somewhere under he front of the car and a terrible wind noise the entire trip. The windshield was so grimy you could hardly see out of it. Every time you got in the car and started driving we were reminded of how much we spent on such a messed up car. The only positive here is that the drop off was quick and the shuttle to the airport was just about to leave so we didnt have to wait to leave. Highly disappointed.
