[Resolved]  Zoom Car — manipulation of charges by zoom car

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka

Zoom car folks - this is nagarajan and my booking id is jps6tfz1f. I surrendered the car on 13th oct'17 after completion of my rental period. I had filled the checklist in the app and closed all the formalities and it clearly mentioned there is no dues from me. At the time of handing over of keys - one of the supposed representative from zoom car - showed me a damage in the running board below the front door and i had not clue about the damage and was not responsible for the same. The next day (14th oct) one of the zoom car representative called and told me i need to pay 2k as damages and the car has been sent for garage. On 19th oct'17 - i got another harassing/threatening call from an agent saying i need to pay rs.10k. The agent was never willing to listen to customer's side of the argument to complaint and kept saying i need to face legal consequences which was completely unwarranted for. When you have a clear damage insurance already - you cannot threaten customers to pay exorbitant amount for damage that they were not responsible for. The damage to the running board below door cannot be so expensive. I never expected zoom car to be so unprofessional and unpolite to regular customers like me. This whole episode has caused immense dissatisfaction and breach of trust. I will never ever recommend zoom car again to my friends or family members - with this kind o[censored]nprofessional and unfair practices in the whole rental market. I feel completely harassed and disappointed.

On what basis are you saying - i damaged the car. At the time of surrendering the car to the contact person - i clearly explained the same. Moreover the damage on the running board below the front door can never cost you Rs.10, 000 as you claim. This is probably the easiest way of you cheating the customers. Even more harassing is - you guys have blindly sent a legal notice which says - i have used the car beyond the rental period - which is false and mis-leading. You guys have a clear damage insurance and the premium is paid uptodate. What is the legal reason for charging this 10k. This is absolute fraud and innocent customers like me are cheated thoroughly. You guys have already caused enough mental harassment for me. This is unacceptable. I repeat - your conduct is absolutely unprofessional in the rental market. Not acceptable at all. You cannot threaten customers by sending legal notices for fraudulent charges. I am going to take a strict legal action against Zoom car for cheating customers. Be professional in the market. Dont cheat users.
