The sales rep wasn’t pleasant, seemed bother Ed to have to help. Don’t think she smiled once. Wasn’t able to get a car because I don’t have a credit card. I guess this is common knowledge but it wasn’t for me.

Wasn't notified that a car would not be there about a hour before pick up time. They were not going to have any cars for about 3 days. I'll use Enterprise for now on.
