I am writing to express my severe disappointment and to request immediate compensation due to a series o[censored]nfortunate events that transpired with my recent car booking. Please find the pertinent details of my reservation below:
- Booking ID: JPSNJJTSJ
- Scheduled Pickup Date and Time and drop date and time : May 12, 2024 14:00 May 13, 2024 18:00
- Vehicle model : Tata Tiago MT Diesel
- Host name - Senthil Kumar V
I had booked a vehicle through your service well in advance, specifically for the purpose of traveling to vote in the local elections. Regrettably, upon arrival at the pickup location 30 minutes before the scheduled time, I was informed that the car was not available, with no prior notice or explanation provided.
The host, Mr. Senthil Kumar, exhibited an unacceptable level o[censored]nprofessionalism by not responding to my repeated attempts to communicate through the Zoom Car app's chat feature. This lack of response left me without any assistance or alternative solutions from the host's side.
Furthermore, when I sought help from Zoom Car's customer care, I was met with long waiting times and an inability to connect with a representative who could assist me in this urgent matter. This added to my frustration and the overall negative experience, as I was left to deal with the situation without any support from your team.
As a result of this complete service failure, I had to make last-minute arrangements with a local car supplier, which cost me an additional Rs. 600 on top of the amount already paid to Zoom Car.
Given the gravity of the situation, apart from the full refund of my booking amount I am requesting a compensation for the extra Rs. 600 that I had to pay due to the unavailability of the car, the host's non-responsiveness, and the lack of timely support from Zoom Car's customer care.
This incident, along with previous encounters with customer service issues and vehicle unavailability, has led me to the decision to cease using Zoom Car services in the future.
I expect a prompt and thorough response to this complaint, along with a satisfactory resolution that includes the requested compensation and an explanation for the multiple failures on the part of Zoom Car. Your immediate attention to this matter is not only expected but necessary to uphold the standards of service that Zoom Car purports to provide.
Please find attached the receipts for the additional expenses I incurred. I await your swift action to address and rectify this situation.
Thank you for your urgent attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Somesh N
