Hi,
This is the mail am continuously receiving from zoom car, initially it was for rs. 6000 and with in one or two days they increased it to rs.10000. I tried contacting them several times and sent many mails to them to ask the reason for extra amount but they did not reply. When i received the mail for outstanding amount of rs. 10000 and checked on the application i got to know that they are charging amount for any damage done to car. I have taken all precautions and saved the car from any kind of damage and parked their car to dropping location without any damage even i have uploaded clean pictures of car after completing my drive. As i haven’t done anything wrong and i have returned the car safely and without any damage.
If they don’t have trust on their customers then for betterment they should send any agent or any person who will check car before and after the car given/taken back. As on 18 sept 2019 also i took a car with booking id this jps6xuvtv in which i was facing problems in unlocking the car so i tried calling to zoom car for continuously half an hour after that they unlocked the car and same thing happen at the time of returning the car i tried so many time and after so many attempts i was able to contact them and they locked the car from there end.
I always take precautions in my life and same was in the case of zoom car but know they are harassing me and charging me for the damage which i haven’t done.
I checked on internet also there are thousands of peoples who are getting harassed by zoom car on the name of damage.
Its not good just for the sake of money zoom car is harassing there customers and finning huge fines on them for the mistakes that they haven’t done.

Kindly help me in this regard.

Hello Hitesh,

Greetings!

We understand your concern here. Upon checking, we see that Left side front and rear door has been Damaged at the time of reservation. Hence, we have charges for the same and charges are valid. We regret to inform that we will be unable to reverse the charges. Hoping for your kind understanding.

There were no scratches on car when I dropped car at dropping location. Dropping place was so crowded may be someone else did these scratches and I really don’t from where these scratches came.

You are making me responsible for these scratches and charging huge amount.. This is really not done and I won’t take responsibility for the things I have not done.
