Unsatisfactory experience and bad service at Avis Car Rental.

I returned the car at Avis car rental at Rand Aiport in Germiston, where I was shown a small stone chip on the bonnet. I was made to acknowlege it, and this was followed by an invoice that they forwarded to me with an amount of R2700.00 to say I am liable for the damage. I explained to the Branch Manager and Customer Service that this was supposed to be treated as fair wear and tear as per the contract that I signed. I was not listernd to, hence am deeply purtubed by this, also given the fact that I previously received bad service from Avis at this branch. I am appealing to South Africans not to use Avis Car Rental to avoid being disappointed.

Good day William Ntsoane,

Thank you for contacting us. 

Kindly be advised that the vehicle was returned with a windscreen chip which was not pre-existing and did not qualify as fair wear & tear. 

As per the incident report, you acknowledged the damage in question. 

The charges will unfortunately remain. 

Best Regards, 

The Avis Team
