Zipcar makes good, Visa proves they need to be regulated

Well, I’ve finally heard back from both Zipcar and Visa.  I was waiting to hear back from both before I updated the continuing saga.

Zipcar actually saw my last post and called me on my cell to see if there’s anything that they could do to smooth out the situation. Kudos to them for that. In the end, I got a $240 credit on my account that can be used for rentals over the next few months.  I’m still a bit hesitant to try it again, but hey its something.

Visa was less than accommodating. They actually called me to tell me that I should have read the fine print before appealing. How insulting is that?! Like, I could have avoided it in their rejection letter!  They either didn’t understand the basis for my appeal or they think I’m retarded.

I think my next move is actually to call Clark Howard. After that I guess I have no choice but to sue them. At this point I just want to make a statement out of this. They’re inviting me to take action. They clearly are begging me to assist them in levying heavy government regulations upon their industry. An invitation I’m all to happy to oblige.

If anyone knows a good class action attorney that I could consult with, I’m almost to that point.  I’ll keep you posted.
