Update .June 2012 .We now have exposed another scam at Dollar/Thrifty Car rental Yes Thrifty Car Rental is part of Dollar and engages in the same practices .Now they are tricking consumers into signing up for insurance after they tell they agent they already are covered.The scam is simple.After you tell the agent you don t want insurance they tell you to click a small pad. What consumers don t know is the acknowledge click signs them up for the very insurance they just told the agent they don t want . The agent then folds up the contract and hands the consumer the proposed bill without going over the charges.Consumers have no idea till they return the car. See more at www.investigativeguy.com Now if you got hit with this one get in touch so we can halp you fight the charges.. youtu.be NOW BACK to the original scam we uncovered last year Investigative guy loves a good scam and here is one that sounded almost too wild to be true Everyone knows the scam where car rental companies charge you outrageous fees to re fill the car if you bring it back so much as one pint under full. Well Dollar cheap hotels in atlantic city Rent A Car has a new scam on top of the standard scams regarding filling the tank. They charge you a fuel charge if you bring the car back FULL but don t have a receipt . Yes you heard right they hit you with a refueling cheap hotels in atlantic city charge even if you brought it back full. The charge is hidden they never tell you the amount of the fuel charge till you check out. So if you forgot a gas receipt get
If that is the way your Dollar location works then hats off to them . Howevercheap hotels in atlantic city it must be pointed out Dollar agents are given a commission cheap hotels in atlantic city on the added coverage portection plans. If the agent commenting here does in fact go over all the proposed charges with consumers , he should be made a manager so as to train other Dollar employees in honest practices
Thank you for your comments. Sadly At Dollar locations cheap hotels in atlantic city all over the country ,consumers report being tricked into services they thought they declined. Just take a look at the comments posted on the Investigative guy Dollar insurance scam story page Again thank you for speaking up
Lastly.. you also have to take into account that our coverages cheap hotels in atlantic city ARE NOT insurance, we are not even supposed to say the word insurance we are supposed to say coverage and we are not allowed to speak on behalf of anyones cheap hotels in atlantic city insurance questions, we tell them they could step aside and call their insurance carrier if they need to. This Dollar is FAR from me, and seems to be poorly managed. But this is not how all Dollar companies work.
Secondly.. The Dollar i work for prints out our contracts and the customer is required to initial the boxes and we have to point and say Initial here and here, this states that you either Accept coverages or Declined depending on if they accepted or declined. and it reads I Accept blah blah and the other one says I Decline.. blah blah Then they are asked to take a minute to review and sign on the bottom cheap hotels in atlantic city when ready.
The funniest thing about this video, is i work for Dollar, I m now a rental agent, First let me say that i don t believe in scams, i was scammed once. Secondly. If anyone rents a car and doesnt take a minute to review their charges, it s their fault. EVERYWHERE i go, i always review my charges before signing or leaving.
I rented a full size SUV Jeep Laredo from Thrifty just outstide LAX back in October. Charges as detailed in my previous comment. I insisted I was already covered by travel insurance, but apparently it wasn t sufficient. The insurance company is a New Zealand one (1Cover). The policy was activated before I landed in the States so I was all ready to go. Of course they don t tell you about extra charges. cheap hotels in atlantic city My point was, why do you bother giving people cheap hotels in atlantic city quotes cheap hotels in atlantic city online if they are completely unrealistic?
you don t have your own auto insurance. The agents at Hertz failed to mention VISA s coverage would become primary in that situation. In that event you have your own with the appropriate coverage (in this situation collision); the VISA CDW in this situation will cover the deductible of your collision coverage cheap hotels in atlantic city with your auto insurer. Dishonesty is the worst way to do business. As the founder of Marvin Windows and doors said Success without integrity is not success .
Tell the man over the counter he is not an attorney or a licensed insurance agent. Your supposed to be licensed to sell insurance cheap hotels in atlantic city in almost every jursidiction in the United States. I would further remind him or her that if you don t know what you are talking about; than to be quiet and not discuss it. I had rented cheap hotels in atlantic city from another rental car agent and they used undue pressure to get me to prepay for gas, purchase collision coverage, and roadside coverage. Apparently VISA s CDW becomes primary if
Never rent from someone or sign a contract with someone who speaks the language poorly, has no critical thinking skills whatsoever, and can t understand what a contract is. Plus never deal with someone who uses unfair pressure cheap hotels in atlantic city or tactics into buying cheap hotels in atlantic city something you don t need.
That is why I don t rent from DOLLAR! cheap hotels in atlantic city Though I never got surprised like this from Dollar but I had rented from them several years ago. This appears to be a form of FRAUD. They need to disclose fees in advance. cheap hotels in atlantic city Anyone who can t do that; don t do business with them. Whenever I rented from Enterprise or Herts; they didn t attempt to pull such crap on me. As long as the tank was full, that was good enough for me. Plus the people cheap hotels in atlantic city you dealt with appeared cheap hotels in atlantic city to be marginally educated
