This is regarding my booking which was done on 8th Dec 2018. (Booking Id-JPS6FOWVG) with Zoom Car Bangalore.

I have got a KUV 100 and when I opened the app it mentioned to me that its damaged at back and rear and asked me to proceed.

Before pickup, I called zoomcar customer care as well to check for the location and inform that there is no one present here at the reception of the zoom car and how should I get the car inspected before I take the car. I called them just before the pickup start time for this.

Now when I have dropped the car without any accidents or any scratches from my end they have send me the bills stating that I need to pay 6K INR in damages as it was done by me.

When I have asked them for the proof that I have damaged the car and they mentioned to me that I need to prove to them that I did not cause it. When I asked them to give me rational and proof that I have caused it, they mentioned to me that they need not prove that I have caused the damages.

I did explain to them everything and over call they started harassing me .

Infact when I asked specifically for pin pointed questions over the email they state that its as per policy and they are also cant be sure if those damages are caused by or someone else (parked car in parking getting hit or someone else) but still they need to charge me for it.

They have taken 3k from me just for no fault of mine and lack of process at their end. Infact they are asking for 3K more from my end for it.

Have given them 7 days to refund me my money, after that Will be filling the complaints in District consumer forum to get my money back along with the compensation for harassment and mental stress.

As expected from a company like Zoom car which practices fraudulent activities and cheat consumers without providing any proofs, they are not even bothered to respond back to the query I raised by them.

They simply stated that its based on thier policy and when I asked for proof of damage been done by me they mentioned to me that I need to provide the proof.

More than 7 days have passed and no response. I am forced to send them a notice visa district consumer court of my village to ask for not just my money back but compensation for the trouble

Suggest everyone to either not take the car from them or if taken not fall for their threats and fraudulent practices. There is a flaw in their processes where when I have requested for manual inspection before the pick up of car there was no one. They might have saved on operational cost at their end by removal of this need inspection but created a flaw which they are trying to utilize to their end by fraudulent charging some of the riders for no fault of them.

Dont fall for these fraudulent activities by this company.

In absence of proof and ambiguity in wordings of the contract, the liability to proves lies with the party which has drafted the contract.

Hello Jain,

Greetings!

We did go through the booking and see that the damage charge levied on the booking is valid, as the vehicle is damaged during your reservation.

We regret we will not be able to reverse the charge.

Regards,
Ramya. S
