  • You guessed it ... another Rent-a-Car centre one-star from this yelp.com user. This is not isolated stuff here. Every one of these companies at McCarran bait and switch, accept reservations (even pre-paid), and then do not honour. The following is my firsthand experience with Thrifty: It was late Thursday night. I guess it was during Spring Break (how this is germane is beyond me, but it was brought up by an employee). I had already been turned away by several McCarran companies, like E-Z, Firefly (rentals, not the restaurant with horrific health code violations), and maybe another. I quickly make a reservation on my fancy phone via carrentals.com. Just 15$/day, which seemed like a steal at the time, especially with my 12$/day pre-paid reservation at E-Z not being honoured, and enormous queues at Hertz and Payless, but when I reach the counter I am informed they have no cars. I can wait until 0400 -- I am told (it is 0030 at this point) -- or, I can accept a hook-up to an unnamed company (different from Thrifty) for fifty (50) dollars ($) a day. Fifty! You see ... it was either agree to fifty a day or wait for four or more hours for a car. And this was some other company -- one that was never named -- that this Thrifty employee was referring me to. Paraphrasing here: "If you walk up right now, it would be eighty a day. I can get your fifty because this is my friend and I will be sending you to them." Later, she repeated this line, but mistakenly estimated the walk-up rate now to be ninety (90), because of "Spring Break." You can't make this shit up. After I say no, politely, I sit for about five minutes or less -- no bullshit -- and, the same employee tells me to head back to the counter because they had my car. The 15$/day car. My untested hypothesis is that it was there all along. It had Colorado plates and was filthy, inside and out. I turned it in cleaner after the weekend than it was when dispatched to me.
