There weren't many people in line, but the process took quite some time. They tried to sell me additional insurance options, which I declined based on the rental company’s policy. Since I was renting from Salt Lake City and returning in Los Angeles, it seemed they couldn't find a car with California plates and tried to give me a downgraded model, which I refused because safety is paramount for long trips. Eventually, the manager managed to arrange a slightly upgraded Ford SUV, which was pretty good. There are gas stations near the return location, and since they require refueling within 10 miles, that was fulfilled, so I didn’t buy the fuel option from the company as their gas prices were a bit high.
1. After landing in Salt Lake City, the car pick-up process took at least an hour of waiting in a very long line. There were only two service counters open, and the staff worked very slowly without showing any effort to make things convenient for customers. 2. During the car pick-up, we unknowingly ended up purchasing additional insurance. It was only after checking the bank statement and consulting with Zuzuche that we discovered this charge. Looking back, the staff’s communication was evasive, and it turned out to be a form of hidden charge. This behavior is quite frustrating and unpleasant. I’m not sure if this is exclusive to this Thrifty location in Salt Lake City. On my prior rental in San Jose, everything was transparent and straightforward.
“The car was garbage. The original car was smoked in. They more than doubled the quoted price!”

Awful. Total bait and switch! I was given a bill of $127 at drop off. I later got an email with a price of $266. 74 minutes earlier than estimated return time, and I am charged an early return fee! What is that? The quoted daily rate went up. All total bogus charges added on to the original bill.
About QEEQ:10.0/10
The process was quick and easy, and what I thought was a good deal. Turns out the good deal was a bait and switch. Nothing the actual easy renter cars can be blamed for.
