Budget Car & Truck Rental Blackburn

I have identified an idiosyncrasy with the system used by not only Budget whilst using a NAB Debit Card. It appears the Bank or Banks don't reverse the charge straight away. It appears that it is nothing to do with Budget but the Banks. So they keep the deposit for a few days, get the interest paid in the money markets and then return our when it suits them. Budget assures me that at some stage my $542.17 will be credited back, but why couldn't it be reversed on the return of the vehicle? I am not criticizing the employees, they were great but ............. NAB, when do I get MY money back?. 5 stars Budget - 1 Star NAB (at the moment)

Be prepared to be without that $400 hold for 7-12 business days. ************ Rented a truck through them. No complaints about the vehicle, but the hold they put on Bank Cards and the amount of time taken to return the funds can be up to 10 business days. They will advise (and it’s in their conditions) that this can vary depending on your bank. However, when I asked my bank about how long such ‘holds’ can take to be released they advised that they (the bank) don’t do holds. Budget takes the $$, then returns it in accordance with their own timeline......nothing to do with the bank!! Anyway, beware and be prepared to be without that $400 hold for 7-12 business days.
