Easy rental, good value

Hello, This is in regard to the above booking reference that I reserved for last week in Boston. Upon arrival at Logan Airport and standing at the Payless counter, I was told that the "Jeep Grand Cherokee" wasn't avalible & I had to settle for something comparable which I understand 100%. I was then given a Chevy Equinox which is an entry level SUV not a mid size SUV like I had requested, I complained to the agent to no avail. In the auto/rental car industry "Comparable" with the Jeep Grand Cherokee should be something like a Ford Explore, Chevrolet Traverse or a Pathfinder... not a Equinox. I am a big guy (5'11 300 lb) I don't mind driving the Equinox but I wanted something more roomy and thats why I chose the Jeep and paid $469.95. I asked for some sort of a discount at the counter but it seems that I was speaking with a Robot without any customer service skills. In todays Social Media World (Big Fan) every rental car company should pick it up a notch and stay competitive with the Avis's of the world. Below, is link to each vehicle's manufacturing base price to show "THEY ARE NOT COMPARABLE" https://www.jeep.com/grand-cherokee.html https://www.chevrolet.com/suvs/equinox-small-suv A very upset customer & awaiting a response and a discount!

The drop off was confusing, the lane was blocked by cones, and it was not clearly marked. No one was available at Kiosk and the instrucions to continue on to the inside counter were not clearly visible. No other auto rentals require this extra step.

Even though I had a reservation for a SUV, that vehicle or anything similar was available. What was the purposes of a reservation was the question I asked the PAYLESS representative. She indicated that the “system” does not allow her to see what vehicles were reserved for that day. Supposedly employees don’t have access to view what cars are needed for customers with reservations. There was no attempt to find a vehicle which could accommodate 6 - 7 passengers. Employee did not check other PAYLESS sites in Wichita for a possible rental. It was a, sorry can’t help you, attitude. I ended up driving my car to Albuquerque. Very poor customer service and inadequate reservation system. Will never rent from PAYLESS or recommend PAYLESS to friends and family.

The agent upgraded me without asking or telling me and they charged me $80 additional. Very deceptive in the way it was done.

had to make extra trip back to airport, engine light on, next car air conditioner didn't work. the 4th car finally worked for us. Never rent from them again
