I was contacted within a few minutes after requesting a change on my policy via the King Price app. Good services rendered by operator.
I rented a car at Thrifty Lanseria from 28 Nov - 3 December. I paid the deposit of R6000. Upon return of the car the sales lady stated it will take 14 days for deposit return (note the 14days was not mentioned during initial car hire) On 28 December the deposit was still not returned. After phoning Thifty the sales agent informed me that it was still pending and that the agent at Lanseria did not process upon return of the car. The agent stated that the deposit will be returned within 24-48hrs. Now on 3 January the deposit still hasn’t been returned. This is poor service where as one has to constantly follow up. Till date no deposits returned. I have rented many cars in the past. First and last time with Thrifty.
This is a fraud. SCAM. Do not pay them anything. Pose as puppies need air transport and need to pay deposit. Once payed has excuses and need to pay insurance. Never get money back!!
SCAM: They pose as Sharon Puppies Home (or we have gathered they change their names to (name) Puppies Home. They have a website advertising puppies. You pay a deposit + Courier fee. Then they say the courier company will contact you. Which they do. Ariel Marine Logistics. Also has a website. So all looks legit. They send you a tracking nr via mail which directs you to a website. But then they say the puppy is with them (at Kimberley airport in this instance) and you need to rent a special temperature air controlled crate for the dog which is R12000. Being under the impression the pup is with them you pay the amount. If the money hasn’t cleared yet they give excuses of the rental office is closed, then the veterinarian said pups cannot fly today. Once the money has cleared, then they require you to have a pet insurance license for R35500 which is all REFUNDABLE. But it’s a scam and you never here from them again. They block you on whatsapp and continue as normal. Be aware!!!
