Enterprise typically refunds the security deposit after you return the rental vehicle, provided there are no additional charges such as fuel replacement, damage, or late return fees

. The refund timing depends on your payment method:

• Credit Card: The deposit is authorized (held) on your card at pickup and released immediately upon return, with the rental charge finalized. The release can take 5 to 10 business days to appear on your statement, depending on your bank's processing

• Debit Card: The full rental and deposit amount are charged upfront, and the deposit refund is processed after vehicle return. It usually takes about 5 to 10 business days for the refund to post to your bank account, but it can take up to 14 business days due to bank processing times

• Cash, Check, or Money Order: Refunds are issued by check and mailed within 20 business days after confirming no extra charges

If the refund is delayed beyond these typical timeframes, it is advised to contact the Enterprise branch where you rented the vehicle and check with your bank

. In summary, expect your Enterprise deposit refund to take approximately 5 to 10 business days for credit or debit card payments, and up to 20 business days if paid by cash or check
