car rental accident practises
I rented a car on a monthly basis. In the middle of the rental period, the unit was bumped at the back. A police report was made stating that i was not the guilty party. The incident was reported to the rental company as it happenned.
After getting the police report, i went to the renat a car office to show thdm the unit as well as the report and was told that if i could still use the unit they would just replace the unit upon the expiry of my month long rental with another unit if i wish to continue renting the unit for another month. Upon reaching the end of the rental period i decided not to renew the rental further. Theyvare now saying that although i am not liable for the repair of the car, i should pay for ghe down time of the unit while it is being repaired. Is this a valid pracyise here in Qatar.? Please advise me!
Renting a car probably a worst decision you could make while you are in Qatar. I have rented twice and both of the time I ended up paying more than rental :), yes there wasn't any accident but they made some story to make me pay :)
If it's written on your contract copy that they will charge ..then it is correct !!
Not all car rental charges for the downtime. Can you specify the name?
Life is a school for continuous learning ...............................................
Yes...this procedure is correct . Pl. read the contract document carefully.
They clearly mention that you must pay the rental charges even if you are not at fault.
But due to the fact that because of you the car was at that place at the time of accident..
