I had rented from Dollar for years...until about a year ago.  I had my reservation in place -- and waited in line.  Once to the counter -- I was informed that I could not rent from Dollar -- due to a credit check.  I said, \"but I've been using you for years\"  Sorry sir, nothing we can do.  She then proceeded to give me a white note card with information about the credit check.  \"Crap\" I thought, what do I do know??  I need a car...so what the heck?  \"Can you tell me what company doesn't do a credit check?\"  No she said.  Thanks Dollar...thanks a lot.  Seriously -- not only was that embarrassing (she was rather rude and loud about it all) -- it was also not professional.  Luckily, I stumbled over to budget, who proceeded to charge me an arm and leg to rent on short notice -- but at least they rented to me.  Anyway -- rent from another place...not here!
