Self Employed by Marc M via Insider Pages on 12/30/2015
At first I thought I was having a problem with reservation and that the price was changing on me, but then after a discussion with the manager they ironed out the problem, honored my reservation and upgraded me. \r
Thank you Manager Shawn…
Stay away!!!! by I H via Insider Pages on 1/5/2013
RUN AWAY!!! Other places' junk are the cars and customer service reps Payless has!! I paid for "premium" but got a beat up old mid size. After driving to LA from San Diego with our 6 month old baby- we saw the check oil, change tire and…
Charged for coverages verbally declined! by Dean M via Insider Pages on 4/28/2012
Buyer beware! Rental car companies make a lot of their money from selling upgrades and options coverages. There is nothing wrong with that. What is wrong is them "slipping in" extra coverages that you verbally declined [or making a…
me by pancho k via Insider Pages on 12/7/2010
I will tell everyone. Payless rented to me even though I didn't have a credit card. We were stuck at the airport looking for a place to rent a car but all the companies we called wanted a credit card for a deposit. We called Payless car…
NO Integrity by Barry L via Insider Pages on 10/20/2010
Worst Experience with car renting ever. San Diego Payless ripped me off, lied and is out of integrity. I am outraged that this company operates the way it does.\r

Payless charged me more that what I was suppose to pay via…
Rome by Rome G via Insider Pages on 10/4/2010
The car we rented for 1.5 days was supposed to have been $40 or so. Somehow the agent added an additional $26 to the bill before we even saw the piece of junk. The agent claimed the $26 was for additional insurance. I would have had him…
Avoid San Diego Payless at all costs !!! by Magesh H via Insider Pages on 9/29/2010
Booked a Weekly rental for my use at the San Diego Airport location. When I got there, staff was unfriendly and the one who "helped" me was outright condescending (name was Deejay). I was given a Chevy Cobalt. When I switched it on, the…
They are not crooks by chris f via Insider Pages on 9/15/2010
Many of the cars (including the one they gave me) are "classics". Read as high mileage, old, worn out, etc.\r
Do not rent from this place.\r
I always rent a car in SD and in all my frequent travels, it is the ONLY time that I look up who…
Avoid this company!!!! by Jerry M via Insider Pages on 8/30/2010
Tried to rent a car in May. Told them that we would arrive at the airport on a 9:00 flight. They told us to call them and they would come pick us up. We called constantly for 45 minutes with no answer. We finally made contact with them…
Some Car Rental Points/Notes About Payless by Payless Car Rental San Diego P via Insider Pages on 9/19/2009
Dear Mark N,
We are deeply embarrassed by your review of Payless here in San Diego. Here are a few reasons why: 1. Roadside Assistance is added to every contract. It's not sneaky, it's there so that if anything happens we will come help…
You don't really save any money by Kandace T via Insider Pages on 3/25/2009
I came to San Diego in January to finish graduate school. I found out early in my stay with another car rental agency that I you can only rent for 30 days at a time. So my saga with Payless began on March 1. I dropped off my first car and…
The Worst Customer Service I Have Ever Received from Anyone by Colleen S via Insider Pages on 3/16/2009
I rented a car from this company by booking online with Southwest Airlines. I was in San Diego for my son's graduation from bootcamp and my son accidently borrowed my personal car keys to open a package and didn't put my keys back in my…
My first and last PAYLESS rental experience by Mark N via Insider Pages on 1/3/2009
January 3, 2009:Beware when renting from this company! This was my first and last time using PAYLESS. Here are a few reasons why:1. I booked my car on YAHOO travel where the final YAHOO price has always matched what I was actually charged.…
Payless, Get Less by Joe H via Insider Pages on 12/15/2008
No airport shuttle early in the morning, so I had to walk to Enterprise a half mile away with my luggage. Would have been nice to know when I mentioned I'd be bringing the car back early.\r

I agree - AVOID AT ALL COST by Damien J via Insider Pages on 9/15/2008
There are plenty of other car rental places in San Diego worth considering. Had a terrible experience with Payless, they overcharged me on the number of days i wanted then refused to a)refund the unused days or b) let me keep the car FOR…

Worst experience I have ever had with a car rental company. Had an early morning flight...the place was not open when I tried to drop off the car (This place is about 2 miles from the airport). Corporate customer service told me to park it…
