What if I don’t return my car on the designated return time or day?
Vehicles are rented on a daily (24-hour) basis. Time begins at contract origination. Full daily charges renew every day at time of contract open. If a vehicle is returned 30 minutes after time of contract open, late fees apply. Any vehicle returned 90 minutes after time of contract open will incur full daily time and mileage charges. There is no grace period for rental fees, surcharges and optional equipment or protections charges.
BackFull-day late charges will apply for these items. If your vehicle is not returned on or before your due date, we will continue to obtain additional funds on the card presented at the time of rental. These funds may be charged and/or deposited at any time. If you wish to extend your rental, you must contact us on or before your scheduled return date, to have an extension successfully completed. Contact Budget Atlanta Extensions at 770-240-3303, and that agent will be happy to accommodate your request, if possible. You can also submit an email request at. Your extension is not granted until you receive an email confirmation from us. You’ll receive a response within 24 business hours. Please note that you must return your vehicle to the same location indicated in your rental agreement.
Budget will not be held responsible for any service fees, insufficient funds fees, returned checks, or other costs or inconveniences which may result from charges to your account. Your bank may take up to two weeks to post a credit to your card.
