SWINDLED
I rented a car on 5/4/2024 for eight days. The initial reservation was made with arguscarhire.com for which I paid $565.44
When I got to Edinburgh to pick up the car the agent there said that the car I had ordered was too small for my 4 bags and he said he had another car, a hybrid, that was a “little” more money but would save on gas. When he showed me the cost (873.32GBP which converted to 1110.18 US dollars), I thought it was out of my budget as it was twice the cost we had planned for, but I trusted the agent’s guidance that it would be best for our luggage and it would save on gas). I agreed to pay 873.32GBP for the hybrid vehicle.
After returning home, I checked my credit card statement and saw that the cost of the original car ($575.44), was still being charged to me in addition to the cost of the second vehicle. Altogether this would be triple ($1675.86), the original quote).
