The attendant at the counter refused to let me have the vehicle at the price confirmed in my e mail. She alleged that I needed a foreign passport to get that rate , as she insisted that was the T’s&C’s . After a lengthy debate about the issue wherein I showed her that nowhere was such T&c indicated, I had to call for senior management to intervene. I was significantly delayed late at night .Reviewed 22. Apr 2026

I experienced a great deal of inconvenience which actually felt a bit dodgy( almost like some kin of fraud). I was given the card machine to swipe for the total funds charged for the rental and the deposit. The amount was properly displayed on the screen and i swiped for it. However , to my surprise as i was still standing there another separate amount with a different figure came out of my account with ref from budget. I immediately queried with the consultant and he said something like 'the system withheld for itself some funds" . This was obviously very confusing to me. How does a system withhold funds from my account? how did these funds get our of my account without me authorising it? This is the reason i say it seems rather fraudulent. I had to escalate the matter to saps and had the issue resolved two days later- This was a big inconvenience over things that they themselves could not even explain- I am still very much unsettled by the lack of explanation to what cased this so-called system error. This experience rendered me to not trust Budget again or refer their services.Reviewed 5. Jan 2025
