Don, I did not interpret his statement that "credit card payments causes you a 05% bank comision" as meaning he was going to tack on 5% but as advice that many credit cards will assess you an international transaction fee.
I have a hard time believing you would actually get that car for 2 days with full coverage for under $60, no matter what their website or email says. I think you should give it a shot and let us know.
Well, confusion is inevitable since I'm not interested in learning Spanish and insist on communicating in English even tho I am signing a Spanish language contract, subject to Spanish language courts, etc. I wondered about that and asked...
me: wait did you say the bank charges me 5% more on my credit card, not you.
him: Hola, ( AGAIN), there is a 05% comision charge when payment is by credit card, but for you, we will make it for NO-CHARGE.....all you pay for the 28-30 hour rental is the $72usd.....
Yeah, it was a charge on his end, and I understand that their bank charges them. My bank will also charge a 3%
conversion charge as they call it on any credit card charges in Mexico, even with him waiving.
Yeah, Easyway will honor the website rates, if they don't lose your reservation, happen to have a car handy, etc. - but I think most of them are subject to those possibilities. Last time, they forgot to meet my ferry, I forgot to take a copy of the res, and they couldn't find me in their computer reservations. They did find me a car, and gave me a rate with 10% AAA discount cheaper than I had reserved, but I try to focus that time into enjoying sites, not shopping and trouble shooting with car agencies.
Yeah the rate is real, if you could just count on them to be there with the car as promised. In 2009, my emails asked where their office was in case we missed each other at the ferry, but they assured me that they'd be there for me. When they weren't, I kinda remember where it was from 2008's hassles...
The 10% discount would apply to rental rates and taxes I guess?
Rates before discount...
