“Outstanding Value and Service”

WJ R.
11/25/22

My first use of AutoSlash was outstanding! They found me a nice car at half the price I could get at the corporate contracted company I normally use. I was apprehensive about renting from Fox and almost panicked when I couldn't find the reservation AutoSlash had made for me, but AutoSlash responded quickly to my evening email and resolved the problem. The rental the next day at Fox in Denver was fast and efficient with a wide choice of cars to choose from, and the return 11 days later was just as easy. I will definitely use AutoSlash and Fox again.

“Double the check the original receipt with Rental company against theAutoSlash for the extra charges”

Niki D.
12/6/22

I booked through Autoslash for 5 days. The charge on my credit card is: $696.01; I checked the original receipt from Hertz Autoslash only paid the supplier $511.66 for 7 days of service, including tax and facility fees. It is clearly stated that AutoSlash provides a free service and only charges a small commission for the booking, which is not true. 6.8% commission is taken and charged for credit card usage, which is not mentioned anywhere. They claim to have paid the supplier $627.04+ credit card usage charge of $24.58 + commission. 6.8% [not disclosed in the final receipt] It would total up to $ 696.01 [[ 5 [days]* $60.94 [daily rate] = [total] $304.7 (not including tax or miscellaneous charges) not close to the charge I got charged on my credit card. Pictures attached Autoslash used a voucher to book for 7 days instead of 5 days.

I have used Autoslash.com for over five years and have saved hundreds of dollars. My experience has been so great, I have recommended them to my friends and family. On the few occasions when I needed additional help, I received a prompt email response.

Has a hard time booking a Fox auto rental that came up in my Autoslash search. Reached out to Autoslash and within 5 minutes I had a response and my auto had been booked!

Used this service many times - this was the first problem I ever had booking (also first time trying to book with Fox).

Autoslash EXCEEDED my expectations with its quick response and solving the problem. (Problem on my end with Fox not "liking" whatever my computer security settings were - or some such the Autoslash person explained.)

Love the ease of Autoslash and how it compares numerous car rental agencies in one easy to navigate search.

Have rented cars with them for several years. They've found great deals and provided outstanding customer service whenever we've contacted them. It's great to deal with a company that has integrity!

I've used them twice and had no issues with my rentals either time. They saved me $100 for my last six day rental. You need to pay in advance (that's how they can discount so steeply) but it's totally refundable until 48 hours prior to your dates. One time I had to cancel and they quickly refunded, no questions asked.

I've used AutoSlash every year since i first learned about it. Each time was effortless, and over the years AutoSlash has saved me hundred$ of dollar$.
Mind you, each rental was domestic: i will try Autoslash in Europe when quarantine restrictions allow Americans back. And i'm a very basic and undemanding traveler who's learned that a teeny bit of flexibility is rewarded with outstanding customer service.
Several years ago I had a bad accident with an AutoSlash car, and the AutoSlash person i reported to was extremely helpful. Since then i've always opted to get car rental insurance (Allianz is my favorite provider). Since i save so much $$ with AutoSlash i'm happy to pay a little more for insurance.
I've tried to convince friends to use AutoSlash, but they're boomer little old ladies who can't wrap their heads around the e-mail business model. As a boomer little old lady myself i find AutoSlash's methods to work just fine.
If you can love a company i love AutoSlash, and i don't know why more people don't know about it. AutoSlash still seems to be a best-kept secret of sorts.

I priced my car rental at 579.00 (Thrifty) after shopping and shopping. Pick up in L. A., dropping off in Phoenix 8 days later. I stumbled upon Auto Slash and inputted my information and every few days I would get an email saying they found a cheaper rate. The Autoslash rates when all the way down to 174.00 (Hertz) and I pulled the trigger. I prepaid, and called Hertz to confirm everything was legit. It was. I just got home from vacation and very happy I saved 400.00. I am really still shocked. Thanks Auto Slash!

My car rental experience lasted over six months, and I ended up with a great deal from AutoSlash. I used the cancel and rebook feature offered by them and the rates for 16 days on Maui went from $680 (cheapest rate I could find) initially to a final rate of $425 from Hertz - this is almost $250 less than the next lowest price I could find.
Every rebooking/cancellation activity was perfect with a fast refund on my cancellations. AutoSlash responded to my email questions quickly, which gave me a sense of confidence in them.
I picked up the car yesterday, and it went perfect.

It surprises me that more people do not know about auto slash. I am sure glad I found it in a google search a few years back. I always cross check their prices against all the big players and without fail they save me 100's every rental!

Autoslash rocks. Saved $170 for a week in Florida.

I saw this on US News & World Report and wanted to try it. As a test, I booked through my typical brand name car rental company for my Florida trip... 1 Week@ $466 (includes AAA discount).

Then I tried Autoslash. Their price (different rental company) was $380.
I reserved it.

I also "requested a quote". About 10 minutes later they emailed with a major rental company for $290 for the week. I re-booked it! AND, if the price drops, I will save more!

Super easy, big savings.

My previous post drew a response from AS and we communicated very clearly about the error. They were aware of the underlying problem and were already working on a fix with the rental agency. When we arrived at our destination, the car was ready and there was no problem with the car rental company. (Note: Hawaii implemented a marginal increase in the daily rental surcharge tax, from $3/day to $5/day, which confused some pricing offers made by car rental companies, resulting in lots of customer confusion around the increase.).
AutoSlash did yeomans work behind the scenes to rectify an error that was not their doing. They were great to work with and we will use them again in the future.

Rental Tax Surcharges.

Just opened up our car rental agreement from AutoSlash, as we are traveling next week. Went to the Alamo site (where the reservation was booked by AutoSlash, or Priceline), and when I reviewed the reservation at the Alamo site, it noted that everything was included, EXCEPT a $315.00 Rent Tax Surcharge. Notified AutoSlash that I would not pay, as our prepaid agreement with AS clearly states that taxes and fees are covered. Anyone else having this issue with Alamo or AutoSlash? AutoSlash responded with a form email saying they are looking into it, but so far no resolution.

We are going to WDW. Prices for car rentals have been so high. I signed up for autoslash and this morning they emailed me. I got a full size for a full week for $207. I am also able to drop the car off right at the Dolphin resort in Disney. The rental is for Alamo also, not an off brand. I paid up front but you can cancel with no penalty up to 48 hours before. Very impressed so far. I went onto the Alamo site and the same rental with dropping off on Disney property was over $400.

I was on a shoestring budget going to Orlando and Treasure Island, FL. I had put in hours of research looking for a car rental that I could afford. Only thing even remotely close were the rental companies where you have to get a shuttle at the airport to take you to their off-site car rental business, and the reviews were horrible. Finally, in frustration, I googled "how to find the best car rental price". That led me to Autoslash - within 5 min I had an email with links to the best car rental prices, many at reputable businesses, like Alamo. I rented a mid-size car for 7 days for $180. I spent maybe... 5 minutes getting my car and then returning it at the airport. Thank you Autoslash, we appreciated your service! I will be recommending you to all my friends.

Ive used AutoSlash for about two years and take two major vacations a year and other misc. Trips requiring a rental car. Last Spring during Spring Break, they saved me over $1000 on a two month rental. In November we are in Hawaii, they have our midsized car down to around $180 for a week... that includes taxes etc.

Love These guys.

I have used autoslash at least a dozen times and have saved money almost every time. While the initial price quote may not seem much different that other websites, if you register your reservation, they let you know if a lower price becomes available for your dates (taking into account any discounts you are eligible for like AAA, etc.). If you choose to accept a lower rate, you do have to book at the lower rate and cancel the initial reservation. I always then followup with a phone call to the rental company to confirm the reservation and be sure my frequent renter number is added. I just saved $100 on a 3 day rental in Alaska because of autoslash. I've never had any difficulty picking up my car or being charged more than quoted. I love this website.

Ps you can register a reservation that you made yourself on another site or a reservation that you made through autoslash.

Autoslash is a must use if you are renting a car. I have saved thousands of dollars over the course of a year using Autoslash. Here is my story: I moved to North Caarolina to work as a wilderness guide, my schedule was one week in the woods and one week at home. When I moved, I could not afford a car, and was not sure of a solution to my need for transportation when I was off of work. Luckily for me, Autoslash appeared in my life just at that time! Just about every off-shift for the past year and a half, I have used Autoslash to book a car rental, typically at a price between $80-$115 per week. The opportunity to use Autoslash allowed me to drive in band-new cars, trucks, Jeeps, SUVs, all for a cost of about $200/month, while also keeping my car insurance costs low and car maintenance cost at $0, even though I would drive from western North Carolina down to South Florida, to Indianapolis, Chicago, Princenton, Chattanooga, and all through the southern states. I am so grateful for Autoslash, thanks so much! Highly recommended!

When looking to book a car rental from the Savannah Airport, then the Burlington VT airport, for an August 2016 trip, I was met with some of the highest car rental fares this past summer... I started looking in May for rates, and everything was crazy expensive... so I booked and would keep checking, and if lower rates came out I'd book at the lower rate... who has this kind of time... while in this process, I came across Auto Slash... and their policy is to continue price checking up until your rental time... so I kept my reservations, and booked with AutoSlash... over time my Savannah rental for 10 days came down a total of $125 about half what it was originally, and my Burlington 5 day rental came down $20 (however the price over all went up nearly $100 on Burlington rentals). In all cases, I called in to each rental agency and confirmed my reservation, and could even go on line and find it... NOTE: there is an AutoSlash reservation number, AND a different confirmation number for the car rental company... use the rental car agency's confirmation number to find your reservation NOT the AutoSlash reservation number... I was able to print my reservations directly from the agency each rental was with... all pricing was honored... And trust me, since it was my first experience I double and tripled checked that this company was really getting me the best price... and it did! Way easier to use Auto Slash than having to monitor yourself for price drops and specials. I'll never use any other form of car rental booking again... so long as the same service is provided. And when I had questions, thru email, all email responses were handled quickly... the only thing that didn't work was when replying if one has a need for an 'urgent' response time, to reply with the existing correspondences with all the confirmation info in tact, I could NOT change the subject line to say 'urgent'. I actually had to start a new email thread... otherwise it was very easy to navigate, and communicate. Thank you Auto Slash!

As a first time user of AutoSlash I was not trusting the website (didn't know the website existed or anyone around me).

As being 4th of July holiday the rates for family Vans were crazy (too freaking high) so I tried the website and as promised, I got a great deal from a reputable company in the LAX airport (only one minor counter was I had miles restrictions a day, minor issue for me because I knew I wasn't going to drive more than 100 miles a day).

Autoslash send me several emails when I booked my reservation through them, the important email and the one that took some of my doubts away was a reservation email with both booking # for autoslash and the main rental company. With that booking #, I went to the rental company website and typed the booking or reservation # provided and I could find that indeed they had a reservation on my name showing the expected rate and the dates. I Printed that page and took with me (just in case).

The day to pick up the rental, we did encounter a problem at the rental company. In short words we spend about an hour arguing because the counter employee messed up something in the computer and didn't wanted to honor the rate. Immediately I called Autoslash, as being a free site they don't have live customer support but I left a VM and sent an email with the URGENT word in it as they instructed (THEY CALLED ME BACK RIGHT AWAY) one Autoslash rep was on the phone with me the entire time and they talked directly to the counter associate and then the manager. At the end, the manager was able to modify the rate and provide me with the rate I booked and everything worked out! Even after the week rental, when I returned the MiniVan I didn't encounter any issues!

Honestly, I had a great price and best experience with Autoslash... I would recommend it to anyone!

I looooooooove autoslash! I can't say this enough.

If you're needing to rent a car, you just type in the location and it lets you select the type of vehicle you need for cheaper than you'll find anywhere else.

Not ONLY this, but if a cheaper price occurs, it re-books the same vehicle for you and sends you a new confirmation through email.

If you don't trust me, just google reviews on it! It's amazing!
