I had the awful experience of meeting the owner of Punjab Auto after I revserved a Budget Truck through Budget.com. Budget recommends to call 24 hours before the reservation date to confirm the reservation with the local business.
I do this, and Punjab Auto tells me that they don't do reservations. I am confused and tell them that I reserved this 16ft. truck two weeks ago. Again, he tells me that we don't do reservations, first come first serve. If you don't like it, call 1-800-Go-Budget, and then he hung up the phone. I called budget and they said they didn't know why Punjab Auto would say this, but not to worry, there will be a truck there waiting for me.
I arrive 8:00 am, the following morning, and I am told that there is no truck for me. I respond, I can see the truck, its rigfht across the street. The owner comes over and tells me, "brother, that's sold, you don't have a truck, go away."
Then, another customer comes out of the office and begins to yell at the owner, he says "you told me $175 on the phone. Now you tell me $250.00!"
The owner had sold my truck to another man for $175 and now was demanding $250.00 in cash. Punjab Auto is crooked and ruthless. They are liars, and they admit it.
I called budget and they appologized for Punjab's actions and said they would have a dispatcher call me within 2 hrs with another truck. They lied as well. I never recieved a call back from Budget and had to rent from U-Haul instead.
Don't trust Punjab Auto, they are evil!
If they lie and rob you while rentling Budget trucks, I can't imagine what they would do if they have your car's engine in pieces. BAD TIMES!
