Criminal fraud and scam
This is a criminal gang disguising as a rental. To make it believable, they do some genuine business here and there, but their primary objective is to get access to your credit card details. They get those by offering almost unbelievably low prices. That is the honey pot. As soon as they get your card details at the counter, prepare for a crazy ride. You are in for un unexplained charge very soon ranging from £100-150 up to £2300, as some reported here. My unwarranted charge was £375. They rely on the fact that many people won’t notice or have the asymmetrical power disadvantage. There is no way to contact them, they won’t pick up phone calls, and they only responded to my threath email with a complete dismissal where they refused to let me know why they charged me (illegal under polish and EU law) and they excused themselves out from mediation (also illegal under polish and EU law). I still don’t understand how they can operate from an EU country doing this scam for at least a couple of years without the interpol intervening and locking up the owner & management. It took me two months of tedious chargeback procedure and paperwork with my card issuer to recover the money.
