I'm a working professional
0:01
I took a car, every car for rental because I was working on
0:07
a month to month basis based on the project. So every time
0:13
so they have charged me extra than they promised. They promised me
0:23
they would only pro-rate charges when I return my car in between
0:28
but they charged me for the whole amount. they charge me double the amount basically
0:32
so that's the reason I reached out to this website I recommend not to fall for false promises
0:40
and make sure you read the documents correctly and I won't suggest anybody to
0:47
opt for Avis in future hope this message reach to people who
0:54
rent car for longer periods of time So I'll keep it very simple
1:04
I don't want to put too much story into it, but I have been renting Avis from April this year
1:14
because I'm a consultant, so my job is not permanent, right? So I am using it month-to-month rental
1:23
I don't know how the project extends or when it ends. So I have been renting from April and I've been paying around thousand to eleven hundred dollars every month
1:34
Till July on July 10th I came to know that July 5th of first week
1:40
I came to know that my project is getting extended for till this year end so I thought Instead of me paying eleven hundred dollars every month why don I buy a new car Because I have a good credit history and I will pay much lesser
1:58
So I opted for that and I returned the car to Avis and I bought a new car
2:04
So that's when the problem started. So before that, going to details, I want to tell you that at the beginning of every month when I
2:15
requested for extension of the car right rental for the new month they always promised to give the
2:23
rate that they have charged me initially that thousand dollars or eleven hundred and they also
2:30
promised me that whenever I returned it before completing month it will be I will be charged
2:38
only on the proportion of the time I'm used let's say if I use 15 days
2:45
so i will be charged only half but when i returned it on 12th they charged me for the whole month
2:54
i returned it on july 12th but they charged me for the whole month so i have been i talked the
3:03
rep uh sales rep who said that she will prorate she's she kept saying that i'm looking into it i'm
3:10
looking into it i am looking into it and it's been already two weeks and i
3:15
talked to the supervisors, I talked to the managers, nobody responded properly
3:21
One of the manager-supervisor, she promised me she would at least return $280, but she
3:27
eventually she didn't return. I kind of got pissed off and I spoke a little louder because she was taking all lame reasons Like because I have returned two hours late my day will count an extra day They even charge me for patrol
3:47
While I have returned half, where in U.S. will, my mind is a small car
3:53
Where in U.S., they charge me $70 for a gas tank, right
3:58
So every small thing they have added up, piled up everything, and they made sure that I pay the whole amount and not the
4:05
pro rated charges and I got pissed off and I that is correct that I spoke a little louder
4:13
saying that you know you can't take advantage of customers and impose all the charges at your
4:21
will and she was like you are yelling at me so she spoke to her manager and she came back and
4:28
say that no we can't give you anything not even the $280 now you have to leave the counter
4:33
So I was forced to leave the counter. That's it. Very disappointed with the service
4:41
I feel bad. It's more than money they have cheated me, basically
4:47
They said they would prorate the charges. They would refund me the money. This happened in the Salt Lake Airport
4:55
And the sales rep I spoke to, there was some Laura, Cindy, Joshua, stocks, all big people
5:03
nobody so they all are one basically at the end of the day they are employees of avies so i didn't know
5:11
what else to do how can i fight out to a corporate an individual versus corporate right so found
5:19
the side i thought i would get at least next time people so my suggestion to people is even if the charges are little more always go with a company which has quality management who values customers like enterprise probably right rather than somebody who give false promises
5:44
or who offers cheap rates or who don't value customers so that is the message I would want
5:51
to give very unfair treatment for me so I would never suggest anyone to go with Avis again
6:01
So you won't believe me, I have been rotating around airport just to get my money back
6:08
It's the end of the day. It's hard-earned money, right? Everybody earns, works for money
6:14
I didn't want to waste money, basically. I'm not going to, you know, gain, you know, at least I don't want to waste it for nothing for companies on companies like Avis
6:26
So I was rotating on airports in the middle of work. I wanted to get my money
6:32
I wasted a lot of time and effort. I have stand in queues for almost like an hour
6:38
You won't believe that kind of queue they have always. One hour long queues
6:43
I went like three or four times there because nobody was doing anything
6:49
Days were just passing by. With the kind of efforts I have put and with the kind of
6:56
loss, energy and time waste that I had to bear. Actually, the thing is, they have to give me the complete amount
7:06
Refund me the complete thousand dollars. That's the least they can do
