Old car and trying to hang damage to my use
Pros: If anything, it was a proper price at first sight
Cons: - Check-in took extremely long
- Car was dirty
- Gas tank was 80%
- 58692 km on the clock, which is a lot for a not so good car
- Electronic key failed multiple times
- Screen wash reservoir empty
- Tires or wheels made a terrible whooping noise
When returning the car the return agent complained heavily about the car being dirty, which was caused by the roads being very muddy due to the heavy rain that came in during the past days before our arrival. I did not wash the car before returning, because it was also not washed when I got it.
He also immediately found a dent (very suspicious because the dent was invisible from standing next to the car, it almost looked as if he exactly knew where the dent was) underneath the car on the left side of which he tried to blame me because it was NOT on the damage form.
I did for sure NOT bump on to something that might have caused this dent. If they rent out old cars with over 58000 km and then try to blame me for some not obvious damage, they should present clear detailed pictures of all sides including the bottom, with a creation date of 1 minute before pickup, so I can check all damages upfront. I never went on my knees to check the bottom of any rental car.
When picking up the car they already missed a very obvious big bump in the hood, luckily, I saw that one at 02:00 at night with bad lighting, otherwise, based on the attitude of the people, I expect they would have tried to blame me for that one too.
I normally rent with Hertz (gold member) and never had any problem and I now know why budget is cheaper.
I MUST SAY THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN CHARGED YET BUT THE EXPERIENCE WAS ENOUGH TO MAKE ME MAD AND VERY SUSPECIOUS and if they really going to charge me for the damage, I will try to get my credit card company to go against them.
IT WAS A VERY BAD AND OFFENDING EXPERIENCE!

Pros: The car was comfortable.
Cons: We were vastly overcharged. Our rental stated the full cost. On arrival, Budget extorted additional fees and surcharges, items that were noted as zero on our confirmation. Budget tried to say it was Kayak's responsibility and Kayak said it was Budget's. Around and around I went. The increase in fees was 60%. Kayak was nice and said that they are not a travel agency but only a search engine and that the reservation was made directly with Budget. NOT HAPPY AT ALL. What a scam.

Poor service at Dubai
Pros: New car and clean
Cons: The value of the money high. No drop of and pick up of the car in terminal 2 and they don't care to drop you and your kids to the enterance of the airport departure section. You have to walk all the way and cross streets with your kids and bags.
They will plane you for any dent in the care watch out before taking the car.

Pros: they charged me extra for my reservation, stuff at pickup was rude and when I asked about his supervisor he told me that there is no supervisor, drop off was easy stuff was friendly, but it looks like they charged me twice for the tool road, I paid cash 86 Dirhams and I see that they charged my bank
Cons: My reservation was total $119.00 and I see that they charge my account for $144.00, they charged me 86 Dirhams for tools which I paid cash and now I see that they also charged my credit card for $23, which is worrying me.

DONT BOOK FROM BUDGET COMPANY
Cons: it took them an hour to get the car while we sat in the airport. Then made us sign about 15 paper promising to give us our 1500 dirhams for insurance back when we give them the car back. THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN! the car was not even the one we booked. OVERALL A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE

Europcar is a scam
Pros: Nothing
Cons: We booked and had a confirmation email with the price for the rental for 8 days. When we arrived the person at the desk had all our reservation information but said the price was 4 times what our email said. When we showed him the confirmation stating the vehicle and the price, he said “I cannot do that price, this is my best price” and the amount was four times our confirmed reservation amount. We have since checked back to see if we misunderstood the email but no, they just offer one price online and then when you get there adjust the price and will not honor the confirmation from online. The worst part is when this was happening the guy behind us in line said “oh yeah they do that all the time, every time I rent with europcar they charge way more than when you originally book, it’s a huge scam” he said the only reason he uses them is because it is a company card so not his money. I would NEVER use them again. We had to scramble to find another company last minute and got a car from them for a more reasonable rate.

Be very careful of the currency when you book your vehicle.
Cons: I booked the vehicle in AED(local currency in Dubai) and I have an email confirmation for this, but when I got to the rental desk I was told the amount would need to be paid in dollars. So the reservation turned out almost 4 times the amount. Even though I had an email confirmation with the currency clearly written in AED, they would not honor it. They already had the slowest and most pathetic service I’ve ever experienced in my life, so I went ahead and just paid the amount to save my time. I highly would not recommend this company.

Pros: I felt welcomed, and though I have heard over the years horror stories of renting cars abroad, my experience with Dollar at Dubai airport was excellent.
Cons: Returning the car, it wasn't clear where to park (unlike in every US airport, there's no obvious 'rental return' lot. I had to find a parking spot in close proximity to the office - but that is just Dubai normal. I just wish it was made clearer.

Confusing - overpriced (exchange rate) - wrong add
Pros: Quoted price
Easy to preform booking with kayak
Avia employee (work in finance department - shaikh Zaid streets near financial center metro station) met us outside the office and he was amazing, helpfully, try his best to find solution for our problem, and he succeed.
Cons: First of all i have another booking (conformation number 09826246US3) when we arrived airport, employee act in unprofessional way and add extra price (70 AED) to let me use my friend Credit Card.
When we went for this booking in shaikh zaid road the avis employee complete the reservation without adding any cost using my friend Credit Card.
Regarding to shikh Zaid location in kayak booking map it was wrong and this let us spent long time to found the office 10 km away from the map location.
When we arrived the shaikh zaid location at 6:00 pm it was close and it is maintained in the website and the door of the office it work until 8:00 pm !!!!!!

Pros: That my family was safe after vehicle malfunctioned
Cons: This branch Terminal 2 offered me a vehicle with poor maintenance. My family and I could have died on the highway when it malfunctioned. The staff couldnt care less about our situation and Mangosh even told me that ‘this is the Emirates, we are different, we dont offer the services you are asking for’. The team was deceitful and rude. I reported this branch to consumer protection services. If you dont want to die, avoid renting. I’ve contacted my credit card company to dispute payment to them. Kayak should not promote them.

Rental agency branch did not exist
Cons: We arrived at DXB to find that the rental agency Payless no longer existed at DXB. The phone number provided by the booking service is not in service. We were stranded and our only options were to take taxis or book expensive last minute car rentals on the spot. We opted for taxis and public transportation as the other rental options were too expensive. We were surprised and let down. I know now not to rely on Kayak.

Top tips for renting a car in Dubai
- Excited to hit the road after landing in Dubai? Fortunately for visitors looking to rent a vehicle, rental car centers are located in the lobbies of all three terminals of Dubai International Airport. So, no matter if you are landing in Terminal 1, 2, or 3, you can quickly pick up a car and be out of the airport in no time.
- When driving on the highways, drivers should keep their eyes open for the United Arab Emirates’ somewhat unique road hazards, including camels and goats. Similar to deer and other wildlife in the United States, goats and camels will often wander onto the more remote roads in the UAE. They are not daily visitors, but they do make frequent appearances, so it pays to be cautious especially on empty roads.
- Driving is very popular in Dubai and, unfortunately, that means rush hour can be quite severe. The typical morning rush hour goes from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and in the evening from 4:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Along with the standard Monday through Friday rush hour traffic, Sundays are also included on the list of rush hour traffic days as many commuters are returning to the city for work.
- An advantage to renting a car while you are in Dubai is that you are no longer stuck in the city. The United Arab Emirates has plenty to offer aside from Dubai and with a car it is as simple as a quick drive to reach neighboring emirates such as Sharjah and Abu Dhabi, where you will find the King Faisal Mosque and Saadiyat Island, respectively.
