Not a happy experience

About Thrifty: 8.0 /10
Car pick up time was 8.30 am. I arrived at 8.40 am. Did the paperwork in 5 mins but was waiting for the car to get ready for another 20 mins. Their car photos uploaded were at 9.02 am goes to show how important time or customer is to them. Got a ute which had really bad shock absorbers. I got a headache driving this car on day 1, fell sick due to discomfort of getting in and out of this car and the constant pain and a back ache which I can still feel 5 days after returning this car. Got my next rental car from 03.03.25- 29.03.25 from a rival car rental company. Brand new Kia cerato, good shock absorbers, comfortable and stylish and the deposit is only $100. Goes to show how the rental deposit also can vary so vastly. The only person I can truly give 5 starts to during this trip was the young lady who washed the car and when asked about which fuel to put and where, she demonstrated this with a beaming smile which can possibly be the only redemption factor to thrifty for this trip.

The pickup location I chose was 200 meters from the hotel. The staff was very friendly, and they had pre-copied the route map for picking up the car, so it was easy to find the vehicle.

“Easy & Efficient”
About Thrifty: 9.7 /10
Very smooth process, always is via Sydney airport. The lady I dealt with on pick up was very friendly and efficient, but on walking in to the office I felt noone really wanted to look up initially, wasn't exactly a great first impression, but as I said, the lady I dealt with was lovely.
