Awesome customer servicePros:Loretta, the lovely lady at the Budget counter who helped us was fantastic. She was patient with us when things got a little stressful and was always polite and shared a few laughs with us when we needed it most! Even when I called in with questions and she was busy she was pleasant and got to us as quickly as possible. Thanks, Loretta!Cons:Budget’s new payment policies. I feel as though they are quite discriminatory against lower to middle class people who don’t have a credit card limit as high others or the credit that’s needed to pay with a debit card even though we have the money. It’s really embarrassing when these things are pointed out in front of others even though we are working as hard as we can to get through life. Not everyone has certain luxuries that your company demands. We will probably think twice before renting with Budget again.Reviewed 13 Jan. 2018

Pay attention to the pickup location in ABQPros:The vehicle was clean and only had 53 miles on it, so there was still new car smell on the interior.Cons:Pay close attention to your pickup location in ABQ. My rental ended up being 19 miles away from the airport, and Budget refused to move the rental to the airport, so I had to change my reservation and it cost $60 more!Reviewed 21 May 2017

Lack of informationPros:The car didn't break down during our rental period.Cons:When picking car up at non-airport site, we were told that we could return the car either to the airport or the same non-airport site. We were NOT told that the price would be increased over $100 if we returned it to the airport. No check of condition of car at pick up.Reviewed 16 Oct. 2018

Shocked by bottom linePros:Great car , upgraded to a Ford Edge, pickup and dropoff was easy.Cons:The taxes and fees added over 40% to the tab, not a Budget issue but would have appreciated a warning.Reviewed 9 Jun. 2017

Pros:One problem, I thought the rental location was at the airport but it was somewhere downtown. We flew into Albuquerque and needed a car at the airport. The agent could not give us the same rate but did upgrade our car request due to my screw up. The car was fine.Cons:I didn't like that I had not checked the budget office locationReviewed 4 Jul. 2016

be sure you select the car rental at the airport.Pros:The car was fine, and car rental staff were very helpful.Cons:We thought we were renting a car at the airport, but it turned out the car rental came from a location that required a cab ride. KAYAK, please make it clearer when a car rental is at the airport or is off site and requires a ride to get there.Reviewed 8 Jul. 2016
