Client

We are a group of 7 from Pretoria going on vacation to Durban and would like to rent a mini bus. I was looking at a Volkswagen Transporter at Durban Airport.

Agent

Yes, I see you already made a search and saw cars. The cars shown are available and the Volkswagen Transporter is in the list indeed.

Client

Yes, but my worry is the deposit that I need to pay. How much is the deposit and will I be sure I will receive the vehicle when I arrive. Some of the quote are scarry and my challenge is that I ve tried to reserve a car with one of the agency only to find that when I check with the company car they do not have my reservation for me now I am sceptical.

Agent

Deposit: follow these instructions to find out:-

At STEP2 of our 3 step online booking process, to the right of the car photo of your choice, is a link entitled "IMPORTANT INFORMATION". Click on this link and it will open an additional smaller window, chose "PAYMENT" where the terms and conditions appertaining to that particular car at your chosen location are displayed. Cash is not accepted. You may wish to try a few different suppliers, as their deposit amounts do vary.

Agent

If you book with us it will all be very clear. After you completed the booking you will receive several confirmation emails containing the link to your voucher. The car will be available on arrival, 100%.

Client

OK, thank you. Do I need to pay the whole amount in order for me to secure a car now?

Agent

No. Just follow what the website ask you to pay. I see you can pay now a deposit of R400 and the rest will be deducted from your credit card before pick up.
