Why is it that every time you need to rent a car they never have the car (or even the class of car) that you paid for and reserved? This should be illegal. If you pay for a reservation (car or otherwise) They should be required to give you what you paid for. Ive rented cars approximately 15 times in my life and not once time have they had the car Ive reserved. I understand that unpaid reservations shouldnt be set in stone, because people often dont show up and then they are losing money because they couldve rented the car to someone else, but when you prepay for a rental, they have your money and shouldnt be allowed to double book a car. Its called a reservation because the car is supposed to be reserved!
Its even more insulting when you book a luxury sedan ( I always do) and get offered a Chevy Cruz, or Nissan Versa instead because thats all they have. Why even have reservations at all? The reason they always have those cheap assed tiny cars is because nobody wants to drive them yet they still continue to overstock them.
All rental places do this so its not like you really have any alternative than to deal with the bullshit
