Bad Service -Avis

I had a courtesy car from Avis through my insurance Miway. At first Avis was very efficient in assisting me with the car. The replacement vehicle was collected on the 04/01/2023. To date I have heard nothing regarding my deposit of R2000. I am very upset regarding this. I have had no phone calls or any feedback regarding my deposit.

Hi Jeeva,

Thank you for providing the reservation number. 

We sent a request to the bank so they confirm if the deposit is still on hold or if it was released. The bank confirmed that there is no pending amount in your account. This means that the deposit was automatically released by your bank.

Hi Jeeva,

Thanks for the response. 

Please be advised that we do not deposit the money into your account. The deposit is a temporary pending transaction/authorisation that your bank releases. If the amount was still on hold, we would instruct your bank to remove it. However your bank stated that the hold was automatically released to your account,

Hello, I am still not happy with your reply. I have not received my deposit. I have checked on my banking account and no deposit shows from AVIS. This is becoming very frustrating. Please send proof to which account this deposit was paid. I cant be asking you for this all the time

Hi Jeeva,

As previously advised, the deposit was not debited from your account. We cannot send proof because we did not debit your account. 

For further assistance please contact the authorisation department of your bank.
