I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel it's important to share my experience.
After renting a truck from this Enterprise location from July 1–6, I accidentally left important handwritten paperwork containing sensitive personal information in the glove compartment. I contacted the branch immediately, and the manager, Alessandro, personally reached out to the customer who had rented the truck after us. That customer confirmed my paperwork was still in the glove compartment, which was a huge relief.
We were assured that we would receive a phone call as soon as the truck was returned so I could retrieve my paperwork. On the morning the truck was due back, we called again to verify everything was in place, and another employee confirmed there was an alert on the account instructing staff to contact me when the vehicle was returned.
That call never came.
Instead, we had to contact the branch ourselves the following day, only to learn the truck had already been rented out again. We even visited the branch in person, and while Cortez was courteous and tried to help, we were simply told to check back again. By then, the paperwork that had previously been confirmed to be in the truck was nowhere to be found. In an effort to resolve the situation, I even emailed Alessandro directly, hoping for an update or at least an acknowledgment. Unfortunately, I never received a response. At that point, it became increasingly difficult to believe that anyone intended to follow through on the repeated promises of a phone call or provide a meaningful update.
What disappointed me most was the consistent assurances that we would be contacted, followed by a complete lack of communication. Had someone simply called us as promised, this situation may have had a very different outcome.
The staff had every opportunity to keep us informed, especially after confirming the paperwork had been located. Instead, we were left having to repeatedly follow up ourselves and still have no clear explanation as to what happened.
Communication and follow-through are essential when customers are trusting a business with property containing sensitive information. Unfortunately, those were the areas where this experience fell short.
Even on July 14, we made one final trip to the branch in hopes of getting answers after being promised return phone calls that never came. We had hoped to speak with Alessandro, since we had the understanding he'd been handling our situation from the beginning. Instead, we were once again assisted by Cortez, who continued to be courteous, professional, and genuinely willing to help.
However, I left feeling disappointed that no one who had been directly handling my case came to speak with us. Whether intentional or not, it gave the impression that my concerns were no longer being taken seriously. In customer service, especially when a customer has been promised a follow up multiple times, accountability matters. Sometimes that simply means meeting the customer face to face, explaining what happened, and having an honest conversation.Throughout this entire process, we remained patient and respectful. We never came into the branch angry or demanding. We simply wanted to recover paperwork that had already been confirmed to be in the truck and to receive the follow up we had repeatedly been promised.
I ultimately felt like giving up was the only option, not because the situation couldn’t have been prevented, but because the communication and accountability I was promised never materialized. I sincerely hope this Enterprise location takes this as an opportunity to improve its communication and accountability so future customers don't have to go through the same experience.
