I rented a car in Cape Town ( from the airport).. It was pouring with rain ( good thing for Cape Town) so didn't go over the car with a fine toothcomb..
When I got in.. The tire pressure light was on.. and the petrol level was at 3/4.. I took a picture because this was the first time in my many years of renting from Avis.. that clearly the car hadn't been prepared for rental ( a MBZ.. so not cheap)..
I had the car for less than 24 hours.. into town to my aunts house in Constantia.. and back to the airport the next day..
When I returned the car.. was told there was a small dent above one of the doors ( how that damage would even happen is a bit of a mystery ) .. but certainly not on my watch or rental time..
I explained ( and provided a photo of the petrol level and tire pressure light.. taken 2 minutes after my contract pick up time) that the damage was not mine.. and was charged about $500 ( or R6000) for the damage.. this is no way to run a company..
Disgusted..party of one..

I experienced something similar also from the cape town airport. I am never using Avis/Budget again.

This is so reassuring guys. They always like to act like you don't know what took place and that they need to tell you what actually happened without challenge. NO. We are not our grand-parents. NEVER EVER AGAIN!
