They try to sell insurance.

When picking up the car, I was given the wrong contract, but at least the issue was resolved when returning the car. It just took a bit long, both for picking up the car and resolving the issue. Takoma Airport's phone is hard to reach, and the same goes for calling other stores.

Constantly pushing me to buy insurance and charging various fees

I had pre-booked a full-size car, but there were none available when I arrived. They even asked if I wanted a 2-door car. After waiting for over 20 minutes, I was given a bright red car. Two grown men driving a bright red car for a business trip, we were too embarrassed to park it in front of the company. I will definitely not use Budget again.

I rented a Ford Escape. The counter staff suggested that they would try to see if they could upgrade our car for free. They helped us upgrade to a Toyota 4Runner which was great. The staff claimed it would be free. But I was charged the upgrade free in the end which I overlooked in the small print and signed for.
