Total scam artists. I should've read these reviews beforehand (the fact they have a 1.9 rating says a lot). I called Budget at Thunder Bay Airport two weeks ago to ask about snow tires, so I could book a car for a family member arriving at the airport a few weeks later. I spoke to Art who told me he would put a note about snow tires. He NEVER mentioned that there was an extra charge for this of about $20/day. My sister-in-law picked up the car and upon dropping it off they more than doubled the price (it was supposed to be $88 and they charged $222). I spoke to Art who told me he remembers telling me about the charge on the phone (he definitely did not) and that it's my sister-in-laws fault for signing the document when she picked it up. I then called another number to complain and they also blamed us. Very disappointing, will certainly not be back. This is my first negative review of any company so that says a lot about my level of frustration with Budget.

The worst experience ever in my life. I feel like I was scammed just to get a sale off me. It was late in the night when I booked a reservation. The was a huge line for cab service as so I asked the person making the reservation if they will drop me off once I return the car tomorrow as this is a service enterprise usually offers. They person indicated they can. Mind you, I would have NEVER reserved with them if they did not because it would not make sense for me to pay for a rental, drop off at the airport the next day and pay for a cab the next day. I arrive the next day only to be told they do not offer such a thing. So I had to pay the ridiculous amount for the rental plus pay for a cab back to the school. If there was a thing called zero stars, that's what they would have. Beware!!!

Did not honour the reservation made online. They refused to give me a car for being under age, while my reservation receipt already included for the underage charge of about 45.00 for 3 days. Also if your policy doesn't include renting a vehicle to a G2 then your website must reflect it while making the reservation, asking the class of licence. I know that some rental agency doesn't rent out an SUV for an underage but i reserved a midsize. This is ridiculous. I had to take a last minute deal on a different rental agency and paid $200.00 for barely 450 kms for an SUV for 3 days. My confirmation number for the owner if he would like to look into 02008635CA6. (May 19 - May 22)
