rental troubles
Car rental office had moved - company provided pick up service but did not do the same when we returned the car.
Car also ran out of oil in a remote location - seems it had not been well serviced before we picked it up
Great service
Everything perfect
All was perfect. No waiting time to pick up the car, everything prepared as ordered, even received an upgrade to a higher category (SUV) which became very handy in the Rockies. And all at a very reasonable price. Also appreciated the online travel guide which was provided through Authentik Canada, very helpful.
Exactly as ordered
Car was just what we’d ordered, staff were efficient and not overly pushy about ‘Premium Breakdown Cover’ or paying extra to reduce the insurance excess (bought cover for this in the UK for around £50!). Car did have a deep scratch in the paint which we found during our inspection before we drove it for the first time (marked it on the paperwork and took a datestamped photo just in case of any problems on hand-back (they’re weren’t any ????). I would definitely recommend Authentik and Thrifty to others. [...]
Not clean, but ran fine. Extra sale at pick up did not impress me
Had a Buick Encore, wasn't very clean but ran fine. Didn't appreciate the guy convincing us we needed a GPS package whilst picking up the car. He had us scared that we would be lost without it, which I'm condident now is far from the truth. Drop off in Vancouver was very simple.
Good car rental
Fast and even with a complimentary upgrade so very happy, please advice to bring along your passport also for car rental pick up as it was compulsory.
Total Recommendable
Good car rental with confidence. Everything went super easy. Make sure your credit card actually shows the name of the driver. If not, it could be more expensive.
Very good experience
Very easy pick up of the vehicle in Calgary and very easy drop-off in Vancouver. Polite agents and a good cost. We also got a last minute car upgrade for the same price since the model we booked wasn't available. Car was Hyundai Elantra - new model, clean and nice with low fuel consumption.

Easy process
Had requested a Chevrolet Spark or similar small vehicle, but was provided with an intermediate size Toyota Corolla due to no availability at no extra cost. Was very happy with the service and easy pick up and drop off process. Very reasonable price for our 13 day car hire and would definitely use again.
Great Authentik
Wonderful service made it very easy all the way thankyou for your prompt service

Ford Taurus 3000km
Pick up & drop off of the vehicle was made easy at Thrifty Downtown Vancouver. The staff were pleasant, efficient & we were lucky enough to have the car brought right out front for us so we didn't have to navigate the parking garage..
We travelled over British Columbia and Alberta & the Ford Taurus was a great car. Fuel efficient & comfort was top notch.
Rented a KIA Sorrento - very good for a drive through the mountains!
Allyson Kelly, our agent assisted with renting.
Excellent service and an upgraded car.
All went as planned. The line was short, the booking with Thrifty was as requested and they upgraded us as a bonus.

It was easy to collect the car in Vancouver and return it in Calgary.
Authentik Canada answered very rapidly all the questions we had before the trip.

Great Service
Authentik CAnada service was exceptional,,,,,,,,very helpful and quick and processing the rental. Allyson Kelly the rep I dealt with via phone and emails wasvery professional and went above and beyond to address my needs and concerns
Thank you
Good deal on the car
Perfect
We did not get the car ,we initially chose,but we got alternative options for similar car. The Jeep 4x4 was great and no issues during our stay. If you need a reliable car do choose the Jeep Comfort Limited with massive GPS screen and the GPS was very reliable. Checking in and out with Thriffty was very smooth and staff were very approachable.
Valerie from Authentik was very prompt and she answered all my questions. Rent with confidence from Authentik. Will use it again.

Frist surprise, after satisfaction
First when we arrived to office we went comunicated that the price was USD300 plus taxe more due to we droop the vehicle in other place. Well dont undestand this because in our order I was very clear Pick up in Toronto and droop in Montreal. but we were in vacation and we need the car. After this we are informed that they no have the same model car and we recive other more smaller but the cost for droop is reduced to USD100 plus tax. we decide acepted because we were in vacation.
The car was ok and no had more problems and droop it was very fast and easy.
I don't understand the first situation because the diference of two types of car exist and I don't undestand the cost of droop on car in other airport with same company and inside and a city like Montreal.
In spain you can pickup one car at Barcelona and droop at Madrid whitout extra cost and if the compny no have the car offered they supply other one of more high category whiout extra cost. and the the companny is the same Thrifty or Hertz.
thanks

Great car, great service
The car was exactly what we needed to do a lot of road during our vacation. We finally had a close to brand new Jetta. The service from Authentik was great and they answered quickly to my questions.
Great service and price!
It's a professional and reliable service. More variety of cars available and great price. Much better then Expedia or direct Avis reservation. I will keep this website and company for the future reservations. Highly recommend to everybody who travels to Canada.
Got given wrong car, Thrifty blamed Authentik
Before arriving at Canada I was impressed with Authentik’s prices and customer service. However, we ordered a sub-compact car, and on Authentik it stared ‘chevrolet Spark or similar’. However, when we picked up the car it was a compact type car - a Nissan Sentra. We went back into the office and said it wasn’t a sub compact car, it was too big for us. They said that Authentik had told them to give us a compact car, and showed us the computer screen saying compact. We asked to be changed to a subcompact as we are fairly young drivers used to small cars, but they said they didn’t any left. Therefore we had to go ahead with the larger car, which made us nervous. We are unsure whose fault it was, but it did put a stressful twist to the beginning of our trip. [...]
Just perfect
Authentik Canada helped me rent a car cheaper than through the website. Everything was included even insurance so no surprise at the counter. Kelly helped me a lot with the reservation. On the day of the departure, as I already paid for gps the rental company have me magnificent car.
Really happy ! thanks for everything
