Has anyone used them? They are quite a bit cheaper through Discover Cars but looking at their reviews, there seems to be a reason for this! I'm looking to hire a car for 3 weeks from Miami and return in Orlando but the prices are obscene.

I did a lot of research on them going back about 4 years and my decision was I would rather skate board down the I4 than use them.

But of course that was years ago and things do change. Would I book with them now? No.

Be aware they are similar to Dollar and Thrifty regarding Tolls. If not enrolled at the counter then -

If not enrolled at time of reservation or at the rental counter, and user incurred toll charges by utilizing a dedicated or express lane, customers will be charged an administrative fee $15 per toll plus the cost of each toll, with a maximum admin fee of $90 per rental agreement. These fees and tolls are charged separately after the completion of the rental. Customers may add the service when they return their vechicle for the original daily rate, but they must do so by returning to the rental counter BEFORE the rental agreement has closed.

If enrolled at the Counter when the hire starts then -

$8.99 flat fee. This fee is applicable to each day of the rental and cannot be purchased only on certain days. Maximum PlatePass fee of $134.85 per rental agreement (15 days).

Thanks Tom.. was coming to a very similar conclusion! I think I'd rather pay more without the worry.
