Extra charges over and above agreed rental.
Update 29th September Budget refuse to give me a refund. They add to contract without giving me a price for an additional driver then say I agreed to a charge because I signed an agreement just as you always have to to take out a rental car. What shysters. Cheats. Be very wary with these people. I won’t use them again. I reported to my credit card company that Budget took an unauthorised payment. Also referred to Irish Consumers org. I won’t give up on this. I’m outraged. Update 25th September Budget refuse to acknowledge they charged me without my authority. They ignore my claim and continue to insist this extra charge is justified. Now they just ignore me. Remarkable really. I wonder if budget desk staff are paid a bonus for raising extra revenue at the counter. My advice is beware of these tricks. I want my money back. Update 17th Sept Although Budget stated no extra charge for an additional driver at the check in desk I was charged €45.40 on return of the car. After numerous emails and soothing words from Budget customer services they refuse to refund this unauthorised charge. What can I say? Shysters. I prepaid for a car with Budget at Knock Airport. On arrival I was asked if I wanted full insurance. Then told to return the car on 3/4 of a tank rather than a full one. How to judge that?? Not easy. Then I was asked of we wanted an extra driver. No charge. Of course we did. After retuning the car I saw Id been billed €45 extra. Turns out this is €11 per day for the extra driver. The Knock airport office manager refused to refund this charge. Im outraged!!!!!
