Chaps
can anybody provide any assistance.....
I hired a van last month and had to leave my credit card details as normal to cover the excess. Unfortunately I scratched the rear side panel :thump: and damaged part of the bumper. I however dropped the van of whilst the office was closed.
the following morning the hire company left a message on my mobile asking me to call, i tried a couple of time and on the 3rd occassion managed to get a reply. they told me that no one was in the office and i left a message to say that i called. I never received any calls back from the hire Company so assumed that was the end of that.
However, i have received my credit card bill today and £250 has been taken for repairs and mentions a 7 seater ( i have not seen the statement myself).
Now i have not authorised this, have not seen a bill not do i know if the repair has indeed been completed. I see little point in asking for a bill as there is a friendly repair company next door so it would be easy for them to gain one.
Surely this cannot be right, are they entitled to take this money without conatcting me or is it some sort of theft??????
What really ****es me off even more was that it was given to me with no diesel in at all and i had to put £40 worth in......i would have only been 4 miles over my allowance had it contained fuel in the 1st place
