Rental car towed due to conflicting parking signage and staff incompetence.

Business reply on Google

Hi Nathan, We are truly sorry to learn that your experience did not meet your expectations. That is certainly not the level of service we want our customers to receive when renting with us. We understand how frustrating it must have been to be told your vehicle was fine to leave in the lot and then later discover it had been towed, resulting in additional time, expense, and inconvenience. To allow us to review your concerns thoroughly, please email us at socialinfo@avis.com with your rental agreement number, the renter's full name, your relationship to the renter (if applicable), a phone number where you can be reached, and a detailed description of what occurred. Please include "SM #291497" in the subject line of your email so we can associate your information with the correct case. Thank you for providing these details. We appreciate the opportunity to look into your concerns and assist you further. We look forward to hearing from you. – Dee
