Will not refund refueling charge on a car that wont start on the road
I rented a car in Rome driving through Italy, France and finally Barcelona. When we stopped by to have lunch in a rest area just outside Genova, our car wont start. It took road assistance to arrive after calling Avis several times 3 hours of waiting. Road assistance was not able to start it as well so we were given another car in Genoa airport. We were told that we will not be charged for not refueling the car since it wont start and it was taken by road assistance. When we returned the new car in Barcelona, we were charged for not filling up the first car that failed starting. I submitted to Avis 2x my complaints to be refunded for refueling charge twice and i was denied both times and they didn’t even bother to answer back my 2 follow up emails. So dont rent a car from A vis as if you have problems on the road they are very slow, requires several phone calls and they will charge you refueling charge on the car that you cannot drive to a gas station for refueling. Worse , we wasted one day of our precious holiday just to get a new car.
