To be honest we have only ever gone with Alamo. But we have always been happy with the price/service so no need to change

You don't have either of mine which are Enterprise and National. Both excellent, new fleet, great service, don't try to rip you off and choice of the row.

whereas dollar gave us the real hard sell, then a relatively poor choice of car

plus, i prefer sfb as an airport

Alamo, never had an issue and good prices. Used Avis once, didn't have any minivans which I booked and then tried to charge me for an insurance I didn't ask for and overcharge petrol as they said I didn't return it full. Never again will I use Avis.

Mine is Car on the Drive BUT they are just too expensive at the moment. We have booked Avis this time as they were £200 cheaper than COTD plus the car we have booked is a higher specification than the one at COTD. I could not justify the difference so have, sadly, gone with a different provider.

Apart from a small issue last time Alamo for us as well, we went with Dollar for years but their fleet seemed to go downhill a few years ago
