First, they extended a trip of less than 4 days to 5 days, and the official confirmation receipt was higher than the booked price. They insisted I sign it first before I could raise objections. When I requested intervention from the car rental platform, it hardly made any difference. Only after continuous demands did they change it back to 4 days. During a vehicle inspection, I was dissatisfied and asked for an upgrade. They only mentioned a $15 daily upgrade fee but didn't inform me about an additional fee or tax of about 200 yuan, which is outright robbery.

The staff were very polite. I was given a choice of several cars. As recommended by the service staff, I selected a Toyota Camry. To my delight it was a near new car. I was running late on the return and only had 3/4 of a tank of gas. To my surprise (and further delight) I was given a $10 rebate towards the fuel cost and only charged $6. I very much appreciated this. Next time I rent a car it will be with National at the John Wayne Airport.

The booking platform was easy to use. As an international driver, I was happy with the price, inclusive of the insurance. I used the Price Drop service and saved a further $35. However, I was nervous that the rebooking would not be confirmed and I would miss out on getting a car. It was reconfirmed. But i was anxious until it was. In the future I will use price drop only when I book many weeks in advance of my trip. That way I can turn it off and not risk losing the car.

Fast pickup

Because of the hurricane we got diverted to Miami. I called National and they handled the switch very easily.

The car hadn’t been cleaned or filled with petrol but apart from that it was fine

The car could have been cleaned and and the tank filled!!
