Drivo Rent A Car - Dumbo Omdömen 3

Drivo Dumbo is a surprisingly good rental car agency. The agents are super friendly and actually very helpful. I find them to be very honest every time I rent a car and overall it’s just in a great location with a pleasant group of people.

When booking my rental online, I was not notified of Drivo's policy of "penalty states" and "forbidden states". I have rented cars for many years from many different companies, and never encountered this rule. I was only notified of it when I went to pick up my car, at which time it was too late for me to figure out alternate plans with a different company. On my trip, I ended up having to book a hotel in Ohio, five minutes across the West Virginia line, because there were no rooms available in my destination state. As a result Drivo has charged me an extra $210 penalty. This is ridiculous and extremely poor business practice. I will never rent with this company again and have encouraged friends and family to avoid it.

In addition, the seats in the car I was given were dirty, and the cruise control had been disabled and was unusable.

**Update**

After posting my review, Drivo contacted me and offered $50 as a "gesture of goodwill," and also requested that I change my negative review to positive. I said I would only do this if I was refunded the full amount of their ridiculous "penalty." The representative replied that this was not possible, and now I would only get $40 back.

Can't stress enough how shady this company is. Stay away.

We recently rented a car at this location, specially told the agent that we don’t need to add any insurance via ACE, since we have provided our own insurance, however, the invoice showed the charge for the insurance deductible, without our consensual agreement. In addition, there was a charge of geo violation that we weren’t aware upon booking. We feel the trust is violated, and not happy with the way they treat their customers.
