Poor Customer Service Alamo / National @ LAX airport on 8/24/09

Posted by admin on May 12th, 2010 and filed under airport rent a car | 4 Comments »

During a recent visit to LAX airport, it took over 30 minutes to rent a car at Alamo / National. In this video you can see how SLOW and unconcerned the employee’s are at helping their customers including their ELITE customers like Quick Silver members who are supposed to have their own express line-there was none at this location. From the customer view, there needs to be more people behind the counter and the employee’s should get some lessions on how to operate their computer systems to improve the speed at which it takes to rent a car. I will be returning Oct 1st to see if there are any improvements for all of Alamo’s Customers.

Car Rental Tip #2 – Weekly & Monthly Rates

Posted by admin on April 7th, 2010 and filed under rent a car discounts | 2 Comments »

travelwishtv.com
For the lowest rates try aiming for a weekly or even a monthly rate.
For example if the daily rate is 59.99 you can often rent that same vehicle for 259.99 for the week. A saving of over 30% if you used that vehicle for all 7 days. As a general rule if you are planning on using the vehicle for 5 days or more your best bet is the weekly rate.

Deluxe Rent A Car – 2007-08 ACRF Fraud

Posted by admin on March 14th, 2010 and filed under airport rent a car | No Comments »

Super Stock drag racing’s John Hennessay is the President of Netstar, the parent company of Johnny Park Parking and Shuttles, Deluxe Rent-A-Car and Johnny Cars and as such is overseeing an operation that uses “False Advertisement and Deceptive Trade Practices to defraud consumers.

They have been charging between 13%-27% in False ACRF, Airport, misc, and un-named additional taxes or fees.

Located near LAX in Los Angeles the reach of their fraud has affected people worldwide using the far reach of the internet and the intimate relationship with #1 internet car rental booking agency – carrentals.com . Their fraud includes forgery, auto registration fraud, false advertisment and ACRF (Airport Concession Recovery Fee) fraud.

Many internet blogs lay claims to insurance fraud, failure to return deposits, false claims of damage…. and the list goes on.

Together these companies work in conjunction with carrentals.com to advertise the unfairly low prices, subsidized by the fraudulently obtained ACRF fees, on the internet. Deluxe uses sister company “Johnny Park’s” shuttles to bypass the restriction on access to the LAX Airport. They then use Johnny Parks unregistered cars to rent to unsuspecting consumers who risk police harrassment. Offset by the low ad pricing with the illegally charged and pocketed ACRF fee. This is intentionally marketed to foreign and interstate travelers thus creating a strategic target of victims with limited recourse.

IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THEY HAVE COMMITED FRAUD, FORJURY, FALSE ADVERTISEMENT, DECEPTIVE and UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES, INTERSTATE WIRE FRAUD

They have shown shameless disregard of the law by continuing these behaviors, renaming the charges, dispite the light being brought to the activities.

JUST LAST MONTH –
They mass e-mailed advertisement to their customers stating that due to a special agreement with the LAWA that they no longer are charging the ACRF Fee like their competition and they are passing the savings to their customers.

THIS IS A COMPLETE SHAMELESS LIE…. LAWA representatives confirm that they are exploiting a loophole to gain access to the airport grounds and have never had any agreement with the LAWA. The charging of this fee is illegal under deceptive and unfair business practices, the collection of this fee reserved only for the LAWA violates Business and Professions Codes. This also make them guilty of unfair business practices against the other companies that “MUST” pay the 10% ACRF fees.

Corporate Research indicates $3-5 million in sales this means 13-27% of this is fraudulent.

Car Rental Tip #4 – Beware Of Hidden Fees

Posted by admin on January 30th, 2010 and filed under rent a car discounts | 10 Comments »

Lisel Hlista here for TravelWishtv.com with your car rental travel tip.
Beware of hidden fees and taxes. Make sure to return your rental car with the same amount of gas that was in it when you left. The rental company keeps track of this and if you think gas is expensive now wait until you see what the rental company will charge your credit card per gallon.

Also stay away from renting at an airport if you can. Often times an additional “airport fee” in excess of $10 per day can be tacked unto your bill. Texas airports were the chief offenders, but airports in states like Arizona, Ohio, Maryland, Missouri and New Mexico also cost renters more in taxes and fees.

Another hidden fee is the excess taxes in addition to the sales tax such as the licensing fees, “arena fees,” mileage fees, or other confusing fees. Renter beware if you see any rates below $20 per day. These rates are too good to be true and are often loaded with hidden taxes.

Car Rental Tip #3 – Rental Insurance

Posted by admin on January 17th, 2010 and filed under rent a car discounts | 25 Comments »

travelwishtv.com
Most renters know to decline the insurance and then are often swayed at the last second by a salesperson pressuring them that the insurance will actually save you money. When renting a car, you’ll be offered a collision damage waiver (CDW) and a loss damage waiver (LDW). The first covers you in the event of a collision, while the second covers any loss to the rental company. Both kinds of coverage are a good idea, but not if they duplicate coverage already included in your own insurance policy. Most insurance policies offer liability coverage to protect you if you injure someone in an accident; some also cover rental-car damage via comprehensive and collision coverage. Check your policy or call your insurance agent to verify coverage before signing up for a vehicle. If you’re renting the car with a credit card, your card provider even cover damage to the vehicle in result off a collision. Again, check with your card company ahead of time to make sure.
