AVOID AVOID AVOID. Don't count on Turo's help when things go wrong. I attempted to extend a rental that was plagued with issues (that I resolved on my own with the host). Flat tyre, tyre replacement, subsequent NEW flat tyre, presumed valve issues at this point.
For whatever reason, the extension request didn’t go through properly on the app and when I contacted support in the morning to arrange the extension with them, I was informed that I would need to make a BRAND NEW RESERVATION on Turo for the car.
This was now going to cost me £330, instead of the £204 quoted to me for the extension I attempted to make the day before, in addition to a NEW DEPOSIT of £250, while they continued to hold my existing £250 deposit. I informed them I would find an alternative solution to making a new booking through them.
Turo support then proceeded to send me threatening emails about contacting local police and keeping all of my deposit if I didn’t either return the vehicle immediately (?!) to the host, or make the new booking with them “within the hour”.
They then proceeded to take an additional £79.17 payment for the “late return” (which I doubt the host will see a penny of), despite my being in communication with my very friendly host who was aware of our situation at every point on the trip. Still no sign of my deposit being returned.
Being ill and travelling this week has been incredibly stressful, in addition to being a very expensive holiday week. You guys have really been the icing on the cake. Will AVOID in future.
