Thrifty at San Francisco Airport

Pros: Customer service was great, especially Douglas that helped us when we got there. Highly recommend

Pros: No service at all was provided by Thrifty at the pickup location or at drop off location.

Cons: on my booking voucher given by Discover car it was written rental desk is located in the arrival hall which was incorrect and I had to make ISD call from my mobile to understand the office location at SFO airport.

Cons: I loved the idea of being able to check in ahead of time and uploaded my license and credit card, but there was no notification when I arrived of where to get the car. I had to still go through the whole process at the counter.

Pros: Car had clearly been rented to a smoker. Had to drive with windows down entire weekend or I would have allergic reaction to residual cigarette smoke in car. Absolutely terrible.

Cons: You shouldn’t rent cars that have been smoked in.

Pros: Car showing oil change message

Pros: rental car building easy to get to, free shuttle from San Francisco Airport and back

Cons: agent emphasized the car break ins, and advised not to leave anything in the car, even our backpack, said especially at the tourist spots, people will even break in the car for "chips", well even if this may have happened in the past, its not classy to paint a bad picture for us tourists who want to enjoy San Francisco. We did not observe anything close to this as we toured Chinatown, Lombard St, the Golden Gate Viewpoints, Pier 39. We still had a great time and enjoyed the City by the Bay.

Cons: Push to use on-line checkin - requires exposing my digital ID. In persona checking line was 45 minutes long.

Pros: They tried to resolve the Discover screw up

Pros: quick pick up

Cons: none

Pros: Great value. New car. Clean car and easy check-in and check-out.

Cons: None

Cons: Older car with 60,000

Pros: Loved the online check in, no need to wait in line..had my car info and keys without speaking to anyone. Drop off also super smooth and easy with no need to speak to anyone

Pros: Ashley at Thrifty was so kind and helpful! She was wonderful!

Cons: Nothing! They did their best!

Cons: Pick up was difficult, it wasn’t clear where to go so I was wondering around the parking lot for a long time.

Pros: Almost perfect

Cons: Very bad service desk at pick-up

Pros: contactless ability to get auto

Cons: ALL service was great - NO complaints

Pros: See below

Cons: Hopeless check in process took ages Agents no idea about the cars Charged for tolls I did not use

Pros: Good price

Cons: Car wasn’t ready on arrival, had to wait 30mins

Pros: There was a line 3 miles long. Stood for over an hour. 1 person was handling counter. There were not enough cars for demand. People were walking away to find other car rentals. We did as well because I had elderly parents standing outside on the curb with all our luggage. We did not get car from you all. Sorry but I have a picture which shows the mayhem.

Cons: No cars. And only 1 person working counter with about 50 people in line for cars

Pros: Overcharged me gave me the collision damage, waiver, and other insurance when I specifically said, I did not want it

Pros: Friendly, helpful, and easy

Cons: The only comment I’d make is that it would be useful if it was easier to find my booking in the app. Each time it had to find the reference from my email and input into the app.

Pros: niente

Cons: tutto. Ad iniziare dalla lunga coda per finire con un addetto poco gentile.

Pros: Efficient drop-off.

Cons: Agent pushing insurance and gas.

Pros: A huge lineup at the Thrifty counter in San Francisco, but staff managed to get everyone through Inna timely manner.

Cons: All the 'add ons' lumped in as extra fees

Pros: nothing!

Cons: 4 hours delay to pick up the car!

Pros: Dropoff was efficient.

Cons: Extremely long line for pickup. Even longer wait needed for car that was paid for. Paid extra for different car.

Cons: the queue for pick up the car is too long, over than 2 hours. it's too tiring! I will no longer use Thrifty

Cons: When arrived at the Thrifty desks to pick up my reserved car there was a waiting line for over an hour. Then when we were finally at the front desk they told me they are out of cars and there will be a other wait for at least 1 hr. I think approx. 40 other people that where also waiting in line also didn't had a car. No way they could have solved this within a Hour. At this point we had to rent a car of s other rental service. Thrifty don't care about their costumers and didn't offer any kind of

Pros: Most desk staff tried, but they were in an impossible position.

Cons: Made reservation and paid 4 month before trip. It was advertised that rental counter was in"in terminal", but turns out to be separate terminal for rental cars, and that involved hauling all luggage on a 15 min tram ride. There was a long line (about 50 people), with no advantage to prepaids / reservations over walk ups. No cars were ready, and we had to wait three hours. When we were directed to our car, it was in the Hertz lot (not a problem, just odd). Totally messed up 1st day of our trip!

Pros: Excessive charge without explanation

Cons: Charged me excessive amount without justification

Pros: The car was fine. The drop off was fine.

Cons: I paid for a car from 3:30pm. Whether my flight is on time or not - I expect to be able to pick my car up at 3:30. The wait time was a DISGRACE. Having to wait two hours after flying across the Atlantic for a car you’ve booked and paid for is nothing short of shambolic. Charging people huge sums of money when you can’t fulfil your obligations is abhorrent behaviour and needs to be stopped immediately. I’ve never heard of it before. Utterly disgusting practice.

Pros: The representative at the airport was extremely unprofessional, taking 5 minutes to explain how he’d made hundreds of thousands in the 2008 real estate crash. Followed by explaining to us how the next crash will be bigger than the last one. This aggravating rendition was then followed by consistent up selling, which I consistently replied please just give me what i’ve paid for… somehow (after a 10 hour flight) I was successfully upsold what I had been told was a better deal. It wasn’t.

Cons: Dreadful all round. I suppose the car worked.
