I’ve use apps for almost every reservation I make (hotels, flights, cinema, etc) but have been sadenned that a high class rental service like Hertz still has me using my laptop. The reason is that the app systematically provides different information than the website. Pickup and drop off hours are possible to set outside the opening hours of the selected locations, even if outside office hours is not available. The only clue is an error message instructing to call Hertz. Guessing the right times, you can actually find vehicles to reserve, but I see prices over 2x what the website gives me. What’s stranger, the pay at desk price is in US Dollars and the pay now is in Euros. I For reference, I live in New Jersey, USA and have my profile upto date and am logged in. The website gets all these right out of the box, so the data exists to make this work. For people looking to find rental on a phone, Hertz is loosing a lot of business. Before realizing these downfalls, I moved multiple reservations to Avis, Turo and GetAround. I rate this app unusable for rentals as it stands and would only use to quickly find the customer service phone number - which I could use the mobile browser for just as well.

Recently did an online reservation for a specific vehicle type for a move. Within a hour of making the online reservation, I get to rental agency and am informed that the last car of that type was rented this morning. Thankfully, local agent had a plan B that worked for me. Was inventory online and in real world often don’t match. Great service recovery!!! Today I needed to extend a rental. Cut and paste the rental number on phone into hertz app and number comes back invalid. Re-enter by hand and same result. Try on computer & get same result. Now call and hertz attempts to charge a $10 fee to extend. I ask about the fee and the helpful human waives fee. Another good service recovery. Hertz needs to their tech straight so that they’re front line people can focus on real customer issues.

I attempted to rent a car and when I arrived at the location, whoever worked there had closed early and I was unable to pick up my rental. I asked for a car at a different location and spoke to 8 different people on the phone over 2 hours. Frustrated beyond belief and in a new city without a car, I asked for a refund and was denied. Essentially taking my money and not giving me a car. After really raising my voice they reluctantly said they would refund the money. But that was a lie and no one put in the request to refund me. So I had to call back 2 additional times to get my refund and finally a month later received it. I have never wrote a negative review on anything in my life. But i had to say something about this company. I will never use this company again.

I used to LOVE Hertz but they just really don’t seem to care about their President Circle customers anymore and this app is horrible! I can’t even get it to open anymore! Even when it would open it was a horrible app. I went through the steps MANY times to set up facial recognition and yet it never worked. Very little useful information at all on the app and poor visibility into account information. These guys could take some lessons from the Delta Airlines app or the Hilton app. Hertz, invest some money in your app and start appreciating your best customers again! Stop cutting perks for your best customers! Bring back the free satellite radio and bottles for your President Circle! We have other options!

I have rented with Hertz for over 20 years and have until Friday received consistently very good service. That streak was broken at the Kona Airport Hertz. First of all, my name and others were not on the board. So we all needed to go inside to the counter. The main reason I am a Gold Club member is so I don’t have to wait in such long lines. Turns out the reason was that the car wasn’t close to being ready. Which no one had the consideration to inform us. So waited along with several others similarly treated for 35 minutes with the others affected in the same way until the vehicle finally shows up. I am seriously rethinking my sole allegiance to Hertz. SteveV
