Avis Car rental South Africa

On the 02/09/2024i returned my rental at Avis car rental where after returning the car no invoice of credit was sent to me(deposit). After any emails to Avis and calls not being answered I get a response a week later to inform me they never knew the car was returned on back to the airport on the 02/09/2024. They stated further that they Re only now starting with the refund process of my deposit and it can take anywhere from 7-14days, this is beyond unprofessional and pathetic. Now I'm being ignored yet again when I told them I need my deposit back, who do I contact????!!!!

Thank you.

I would look Proof please that it has been processed as I do not believe that it is being processed. Instead of holding onto people's hard earned money and making money off of it, pay them their money back. Avis continue's making a bad name for themselves by not paying people's deposits back and it is shocking how there is a lack of empathy for their clients. Your apologies mean nothing to me, start by reaching out on email and send a me proof that it has been processed!!!!! I do t understand how hard it is to pay money back into an account???!!! Do I need to contact the Ombudsman???

Tomorrow marks two weeks that I returned my car that I rented back to Avis at the airport with still no deposit reflecting in my account. They can't blame the banks or anyone else but themselves. They hold your money to accumulate interest on your money and take their sweet time to pay back what is yours. Emails after emails with no response, calls after calls with no response. I will for sure after renting a car for three months with Avis, will not ever again rent a car by Avis.

Further a request was made to Avis with confirmation that the deposit be paid into my account due to my card being replaced. So how are you refunding my deposit through my card when the request was confirmed and accepted. All I have to say is unprofessional in all ways.
