Pros: Dropoff was easy.

Cons: See above: charges did not match those provided the Company ($75 vs. $59) / Agent initially stated that additional driver fees ($12/day) would be added / Agent did not explain toll-paying option well / Understaffed with long wait to pick up.

Kia Sportage
6/12/24

Pros: Friendly, efficient, fast.

Cons: Agent in SFO sold me "daily toll fee" even though I was only in Los Angeles one day out of 7.... I could have done w/o it and just paid for one day via invoice. Not much explanation was given. Also, there was no one in the lot at SFO to explain any of the car functions to me or answer any of my questions. Drop off in LA was challenging - long line of cars parked in parking lot, no one to "receive the car"....

Canada
Toyota Corolla
6/4/24

Pros: Efficiency at desk

Cons: Overpayed for upgrade

Toyota Corolla
5/29/24

Pros: Professional staff, quick service. Location was easy to find with address on confirmation e-mail.

Cons: Would have preferred to have known name of rental place was Fox and not DiscoverCars. Reduces confusion when looking for rental pick-up location. No floor mats and back of car had a bit of a "dog" smell, but not terrible.

Canada
Kia Sportage
5/15/24

Pros: I was unable to pick up my car since I did not have my passport. They would not accept my Nexus card as a global ID. Given that a passport is not required to fly when I use my Nexus, I did not bring it. The desk associate did not have the autonomy to support me to a resolution. This was booked through Discover Cars which ended up being a huge hassle. Avoid at all cost!

United States of America (USA)
Mitsubishi Mirage
4/3/24

Pros: I didn't

Cons: There's no clarity on the invoice. They didn't break it down, the prices and the total. I was charge to $170 and then another $200 for a 4 day car rental. It came out around $100/day. Would not recommend this company.

United States of America (USA)

3/21/24

Cons: Undisclosed fees at booking.

United States of America (USA)
Hyundai Santa Fe
3/15/24

Pros: not much

Cons: The staff did not care what I had paid but "what Fox received", they did not pay respect to discovercars.com which made me wonder what kind of business relationship between Fox and Discovercars.com???

United States of America (USA)
Kia Sportage
2/22/24

Pros: We called our credit card company to reverse the charges! Terrible service. We ended up having to go back to the rental car center at SFO to rent a car that cost us $300 more that your company should reimburse us for.

New Zealand
Hyundai Santa Fe
2/19/24

Pros: Service is ok but the extra charges from Fox Rental is not justified.

United States of America (USA)
Toyota Corolla
1/27/24

Pros: Unlike seen in many negative review, there was no long line, no upsell on insurance, no surprise added charge, no dirty car, no car trouble.

United States of America (USA)
Nissan Versa
1/18/24

Cons: I was not able to successfully rent a car due to a discriminatory additional fee not outlined in my rental agreement, voucher or receipt for purchase. I received little to no assistance at the front desk and I never received or was offered an itemized receipt. I had to ask for a receipt and still did not get what I actually asked for.

United States of America (USA)
Toyota Corolla
1/17/24

Pros: Nothing.

Cons: The customer service agents were very strange and pushy and they tried to get me to do the prepaid fuel option multiple times and I tried to decline politely but that didn't seem to register.

United States of America (USA)
Mitsubishi Mirage
1/3/24

Cons: Shuttle from SFO car rental center to Fox was a small hassle. They didn’t have a car for us when we arrived and said it could be 30-60 min wait. They wouldn’t free upgrade. We had a reservation, but agent said it doesn’t guarantee a car (?). I’ve never dealt with that with any other car rental. It was frustrating for several minutes. Someone returned a car about 10 minutes later and they had to clean it up. It was about 30 minutes later than our pick up time by the time we got our car.

Toyota Corolla
3/15/22

Pros: None

Cons: SF location desk tried to sell me an upgrade car, I refused, he gave me a lousy car with many scratch spots, so I spent 20 mins to write down the dpots and also took pictures. Then drove about 20 mins, I heard some tiny noise from the bottom. My husband said that I was insane. ( I am a music teacher who has perfect ears) then when arrived half moon bay, I lied down on the ground to check the bottom of the car. A piece of something didn’t tied so it hit the ground and made a scratch sound.

12/12/19

Pros: Good quality car

12/10/19

Pros: I really liked how friendly and helpful the agent was when he helped me. He was very understanding when I stated that I was not comfortable with the jeep wrangler upgrade. He even canceled the early return fees, and he helped me get a Honda economy car instead.

Pros: The person helping me was very good and helpful

Cons: There was one services person at the check in counter just talking with the customer causing people in line to wait way to long to be waited on. This counter person talked for about 30 minutes and then left the counter for some reason. People in line were not happy at all with this person.

United Kingdom

United Kingdom
Kia Sportage
9/18/19

Pros: It was quick to drop off the car.

Cons: Long queue. Slow staff. They added on insurance and charged us for it without asking whether we wanted it. It took 3 hours to get a working car. The first car had technical issues and did not drive safely on the highway. The second car had documentation that didn't match the licence plate so we couldn't get it out of the rental car centre (security would not let us pass). The 3rd car was not the type of car we wanted but we were desperate to leave. The cars all had a lot of mileage and scratches

United Kingdom
Toyota Yaris
4/29/19

Pros: I was disappointed from the managers response when I pointed out we had been bitten relentless while we were traveling in the vehicle. And also we were lacking in confidence to travel to Vegas thinking the vehicle was going to break down. The manager pointed out it was new with5k on the clock. We thought wow tell us something we had already commented on. He also described the vehicle as economy and didn't consider that we had been bit to pieces due to lack of spraying in the vehicle prior with

Cons: Poor customer services after sales

Thailand
Jeep Cherokee
4/17/19

Pros: Fast drop off

Cons: I booked the jeep cherakee but got 2wd Hyondai suv instead. The wipers were totally in bad condition. On the rainy day, it was very dangerous.
