She left her name and number with Enterprise, and then Enterprise called her back. Question to Starbug and anyone else who's done this in the Seattle area: how long was the wait for Enterprise to call you back? Thanks in advance... |

They had all the local Enterprises on the lookout for one. Called me back about 3 days before I had to leave for my trip and told me that they found one that was due back Thurs (the day I needed to leave) at noon, and would that be ok? I said 'yep' and came in. I saw it drive up, they cleaned it out, and gave me the fob. I just about glomped* the car! LOL. Sooooo worth the wait. *Glomp: a flying tackle-hug, like an over-exhuberant bearhug done from a running leap. |

My advice if you do: have them start looking two weeks in advance so that you don't stress about them finding one in time, and so they don't kill themselves trying to find one in time. Makes everybody's life easier. I used the Redmond Enterprise branch, and dealt with a guy named Dan (sorry can't remember his lastname, but I think he was the only Dan there so it shouldn't be a problem). |

EVERY SECOND COUNTS!!! GREEN ON BUD!! |
