Budget Location France Bewertungen 

Nous avons loué une petite voiture chez Budget en Martinique. Tout a été parfait, accueil sympa, voiture impeccable. Ils n'essayent pas de fourguer des assurances de force comme chez SIXT.
Aucune mauvaise surprise. Nous étions même étonné que cela se passe aussi bien.
Merci Budget Martinique.

Un dommage constaté et signé sur la fiche d'état des lieux par l'agent au moment du retrait du véhicule qu'on me facture 369 eur 43 !!!!
Nous nous verrons au tribunal comptez sur moi !

N’effectuent pas le tour du véhicule au retour et vous facturent 400 euros pour une petite éraflure sur un pare-chocs en vous envoyant des photos .
Plus jamais Budget car rental

Location très facile en kilométrage illimité pour 24h ce qui n'est pas négligeable.
La prise en charge et la restitution de la voiture ont été extrêmement faciles.
Ravis d'être passé par Budget.

Unfortunately a tyre on our holiday rental car burst. We had booked a Budget France car through Holiday Autos. Budget assistance were shocking and we spent 5 days of our holiday car-less, stressed and on the phone constantly trying to sort it out. Upon collecting the repaired car, we were shocked to be presented with the bill of E431 but Budget assured us that it would be refunded when we submitted the receipt. That was a month ago and I have chased both Budget and HA constantly. Despite submitting all the requested info, I've still had no response and no refund. To be aware of - contracts state that you can have a replacement car if you're prepared to go and pick it up (which would have been a 7 hour round trip for us) but they don't deliver one. Terrible service.

Just avoid Budget / Avis (same company). That is the easy conclusion to share with you. Even emails to the CEO's office, which were acknowledged, have led to no satisfactory answers. At Bordeaux airport in May 2019 an employee was verbally and manically aggressive. This was witnessed by the manager and seemingly tolerated. Also, an item of clothing was left in the car. It was not found nor retrieved by the company. Appalling company. As they say, "surtout, a eviter". Nutshell: do not use Budget or Avis
No de contrat: 397852022

It's a pity to leave a bad review as I have used Budget in the past, but the team at Paris CDG are just crooks. I had a voucher rental with Holiday Autos (not their fault, 5Star to them for rates etc), and when I arrived was firstly not asked for voucher, when I offered it was told "not needed", then was tried to be sold insurance. I declined. They gave me keys, no document (said it was fast pick up) and left me to it. I went to car, took lots of photos of damage and went back to office. They filled out a card and signed it, said leave it in the car for drop off. Car was fine, newish Yaris, when I went back they checked over and said all fine, and with hand held device guy asks me to sign. I noticed a Euro15 charge showing on the screen and queried it, he said "Oh looks like the car was booked out with not full tank and you return it full, so it's a credit to you". He then went to deal with other customer, ... I got my stuff out of car, then went to ask him for print out "oh I already emailed you". But they didn't have my email address I knew. So, back into their office, long story short...they had added the 1 day insurance charge, and also not correctly assigned full value of my rental voucher. I challenged them and they eventually corrected it all and printed me a final invoice at "zero" extra charges. But... looks like the office staff, and drop off staff are running a scam there. Each backing up the other to rip off customers. I am emailing their manger to report it.

J'ai récemment loué un véhicule à Tenerife (contrat 888485382) prélèvement sans raison de 722 euros. Depuis on m'explique que je me suis surement trompé de carburant (ce qui est faux). J'attends un retour de BUDGET pour régler ce problème qui d'une erreur de gestion deviendrait une escroquerie.☹️

STAY AWAY from Budget Nice Airport! Last year in April we had online rented a small car and prepaid approx. 300 Euros. At the desk in Nice Airport the salesperson (Veronique) argued that it would be "very convenient " to us to buy a lot of extras. Most of it she did not explain to us and we were asked to sign the contract on a computer screen. A written contract would be sent to us by mail later. We ended up paying more than 600 Euros on top of the rent. When we received the contract we tried to protest but we could not get in contact with Budget. We have now for almost a year tried to get their specifications and comments, we have even had legal assistance. But Budget' s argument is "you signed the contract at the desk." Never do business with Budget, their business strategy apparently is to sell you extras, whether you need it or not. Lousy customer treatment!

A éviter à tout prix... malgré le prix alléchant.
Attente interminable (plus d'une heure) à l'aéroport d'Oakland (et nous ne sommes pas du genre pressés). Avec un personnel qui ne se pressait pas et n'en avait rien à faire.
On nous a remis une voiture économique alors que nous avions réservé et payé une compacte. Quand nous avons été dans l'impossibilité de rentrer nos valises dans cette voiture on nous a proposé une autre économique... en nous disant que c'était ça ou l'annulation de la résa. (Enfin, ce n'est rien à côté de gens qui attendaient avec nous. Ils avaient loué une voiture pour 9 mais on leur a dit à leur arrivée que le parc était vide et que la seule option possible était de prendre 2 voitures...)
Aucun état des lieux n'a été fait au moment de récupérer notre voiture.
Enfin, et là c'en est trop : nous avons rendu la voiture il y a 1 mois. Elle était propre. Nous avons eu le reçu de restitution. Sauf que nous venons de recevoir une lettre nous informant que la voiture était pleine de sable (!) et qu'il fallait donc verser 150€ de plus à posteriori. Il doit d'ailleurs y avoir une erreur de destinataire car la date de restitution mentionnée dans la lettre ne correspond pas.
Pour couronner le tout, le service clients est bien sûr injoignable (malgré une promesse de réponse sous 10 jours par mail).

Service assez incompetent. J'ai loué un véhicule a Marseille et je devais le rendre à Cannes le Dimanche. Sauf que le Dimanche à Cannes tous les Budget sont fermés. Je devais le rendre à la Gare... Pas de panneau Budget... Il faut deviner que AVIS et Budget c'est pareil... Moi encore je parle français.. Je pense au pauvre touriste !!!... Bref... rendue le lendemain, le service clientele vous dit:"Mais Avis et Budget c'est pareil"et il y a une boite au 1er etage pour mettre les clés (sous enseigne Avis) ??? Le parking est au -2??? ou cela est-il écrit?? indiqué??? comment deviner??? Bref.. Je ne louerai plus jamais BUdget.. Ah et pour les appeler bien sur un numero surtaxé!! une honte.

Déplorable suite à une erreur d heure de restitution (18h au lieu de 16h06) ils m ont prélevés 120€ de plus... je n y suis donc pour rien et cela fait déjà 2 fois que j y vais + appels + réclamation sur leur ligne dédiée et rien ne bouge... aucune considération pour leurs clients
En plus aucune facture ne m a été fournie c est bien là le sumum de l incompétence, a fuir...
Ils me prennent pour un imbecile mais j irai tous les jours si il le faut

Update on review below: N.B. Despite having a reputable mobile subscription that covers normal calls to and from France, I received a charge of over EUR 80 for several calls to the helpline as Budget operates a special high-charge number for breakdown assistance (at least for non-residents). At no point was this communicated by Budget. What a rip off!

ORIGINAL REVIEW
Booked a car with pick-up at CDG airport. We were at the desk on time, but the car wasn’t ready. When we came back 25 minutes later there was a very long queue, which delayed us further. Language was a problem and we didn’t receive a copy of the contract at the desk. Car was dirty and there was an issue to be addressed. Another long queue to resolve the query awaited us. A total wait time of nearly two hours for a vehicle is unacceptable.

Two hours down the motorway the brake warning light came on. We tried calling customer services three times, but couldn’t get through. Although we chose the English language option here, the instructions reverted to French at the next stage, which didn’t help matters. We sent an email, which went unanswered. By the next day, the light had gone off. Day four and it came on again. We tried calling customer services several times, but couldn’t reach anyone. Still no reply to the original email either. Eventually we got through and were transferred to an English-speaking operator. At this stage, things started to go well and we agreed to exchange the car at Toulon airport, which went very smoothly in fact – a reason for the extra star in the review (now deleted due to high charge for breakdown helpline).

STAY AWAY - THEY WILL CHEAT YOU BAD
In june 2018, I rented a smal car at Budget Nice Airport. I was given a Yaris, and the Salesman informed me that there were 4 damaged spots on the car. If I found more scratches, I should contact a representative in the delivery area. I did not receive a written contract, as the policy of the Company is, that they later send this to your e-mail address.

On taking over the car I noticed 8 scratches instead of 4 as notifed by the Office. I contacted the representative, and he filled a form to document my complaints. The document noted 4 scratches only, and the man explained to me that he only noted the 4 scratches they did not already have in their system. I got my receipt with the new scratches noted (I wrongfully trusted).

When returning the car, I was informed that they had registered 4 scratches only, and those scratches were exactly the same, that were on my complaint receipt. I had to pay for the other scratches. I explained what happened, and asked them to consider, why I would bother to demand a receipt of the Exact same 4 scratches, of which I was informed when renting the car. They did not want to discuss that, so it is obvious to me, that they deliberatly are cheating.

When returning home I waited for Them to contact me. I did not hear anything, so I wrongfully thought that they had corrected the Errors and accepted my explanations.

Now, they have drawn 690 € from my Mastercard. I discovered that by coincidence, as Budget/Avis did not give me any message or any document to specify that transaction.

So I would in every way encourage you to stay away from Budget Nice Airport, as they have no ethic standards, and as cheating most likely is part of their means of conducting business.

If anyone has rented a White Yaris, before 20 june, or after 26 june, and had similar bad experiences, please contact me, as I can confirm that I reported 8 scratches to the Office on that car. They have probably charged the same scratches more than once.

Our plane was delayed 1 hour at arrival at Charles de Gaulle airport. My family and I got 15 minuttes past midnight at Budget office. But we only found an empty desk. We could not understand since Budget had asked for and received our flight number. (The rental office from Europcar was though open waiting for passangers from the same fly!)
After a long travelling day my family and I had to spent 6 hours at the airport waiting for the office to open again. Not a nice experience!
Since we did not arrive on time, Budget cancelled our contract and charged our credit card with EUR 70 for a new contract.

Lesson learned:
Budget will just not wait 15 min. for you as the guys from Europcar do but they will charge you extra the next day for sleeping at the airport.

Après avoir loué une voiture pour 36jours via autoescape, budget nous a prélevé des frais supplémentaires car "leurs contrats ne peuvent pas dépasser 30 jours"
cela fait 8 mois que nous appelons régulièrement, nous leur fournissons tous les justificatifs demandés mais ne voyons toujours pas de remboursement concernant les 200€ ...
Service client déplorable malgré le fait que les interlocuteurs soient bien français
Une fois, plus jamais.
