This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Allow me to start by saying I am very displeased with my experience from renting cars through IAH airport in Houston Texas. I have had numerous go arounds and bad experiences that have been nothing less than problematic. I recently rented a car from Sixt who I did not prefer to rent from, however suppliers choice assigned me the company. I was very hesitant to rent from Sixt at the suppliers suggestion, based on the poor reviews that I had previously researched. Sixt held a $200 deposit on my American Express credit card on 10/25. They released the deposit on 10/30 and on the same day they sent me a seperate email stating claims damage. Furthermore, during pick up the Sixt representative was constantly trying to shove toll passes down my throat even after I told him I would only be traveling on the I10 which does not require toll fees. I also had a reservation for a uhaul that I drove the majority of my stay in Houston. For the most part, the car had been parked as I had to move large furniture that wouldnt fit in a smaller vehicle. In addition I've had a handicap plaque card for the past four years which allows more space when parking. Furthermore I have a clean driving record of over 35 years. Getting to the meat and potatoes. I arrived to IAH a little after 4pm to depart on my 5:30pm flight. Sixt did not email me until over 13 hours after I dropped off the rental car that there was damage to the rim. Damage should have been evident sooner than 12 hours later. When I called to speak to a claims representative, she adamantly stated "If I don't provide pictures I don't have a case". Luckily I took pictures of the vehicle at drop off since I had a similar experience at this same airport with Hertz car rental earlier this year when they attempted to charge me $300 claiming I did not return the fob and that was later reversed upon them discovering it was their own employees fault that the fob had been misplaced. Please do your research before you rent from these car companies at IAH airport. Be very weary at IAH. The rental car companies will try to scam you. They will finesse you if they think they can. If you don't want to take my word for it, read Sixt rental car reviews on any website just like I did. DO NOT FALL FOR THE HYPE. Take heed to everyones experience and save yourself the trouble. Even if the rate is cheaper, it's a set up. That is exactly how they got me. They lower the rate to lure you in and then they attempt to scam you in the end with false excessive charges. My American Express credit card company is already on board to help investigate these false allegations. I have also filed a complaint with the BBB and the state attorney generals office. I will continue to spread my Sixt nightmare experience via word of mouth and wherever possible on the web until I am satisfied that this matter has been resolved. Sixt rental car is demanding I pay $601 within one week to satisfy this false claim. I wish I knew of a class action law suit that I could participate in. In the meantime this may end up being a small claims/civil matter because I will not be bullied into paying for something that I did not do.
