A tutorial about zipcars aims to get you started with the service. This tutorial will show you how to make a reservation, pay for gas and return the car. Learn about the types of insurance required, how to return your car if there is a problem and how you can get a refund.
How to book a car
Logging into the Zipcar app is necessary to reserve a Zipcar. Select the pickup and dropoff locations. You can also pick a day or time. Before you reserve a car, be sure to verify the vehicle's limits. You can always make changes to the details if the time or location you chose is not correct. Click on the button to confirm your booking.
Zipcar's booking process is quicker than traditional rental companies. Zipcar is easy to use. You can find the car you want and then choose a pickup time and return time. It also doesn't require you to fill out long forms or read the fine print. You can also extend your booking by calling Zipcar's hotline. When you do so, make sure to follow the Fee Policy to avoid additional charges.
How to pay Gas
Zipcar's gas card functions exactly like a regular credit card or debit card. The card is inserted into the appropriate slot at your pump. Next, follow the prompts to complete the transaction. Make sure you put enough gas in your Zipcar. A premium vehicle will require more fuel. You can keep the receipt for reimbursement once you are done.
Zipcar gas card users must have a debit or credit card of at least $50 to be able to use the card. Zipcar cards can only be used at stations that accept them. Before paying for gas, please enter your zip code.
How do I return a car?
When it comes to returning your Zipcar rental, it is important to know how to return it safely. The first step is to make sure you return the key to the holder in the glove box. To do this, insert the bullet-shaped fob into its slot. After the key has been inserted, a small LED light of green will flash. This indicates that the rental is over. Next, you need to perform a final check to make sure your belongings are still in the vehicle. You should be careful as some vehicles won't automatically turn off when the ignition is turned off.
Also, make sure to lock your Zipcar doors after each use. You don't want the car to be unlocked or charged for extra time. Late returns will result in a late fee. This fee can be up to $50.
How to get a Refund
Zipcar customer support can help you request a full refund if there is a problem with your reservation. You must make your request within 30 calendar days of the original booking date. Attach a photograph of your receipt to verify the details.
It's easy to cancel a Zipcar subscription. You will need to log in to your account and supply your driver’s license. After that, wait for the cancellation process to take place. A partial or complete refund may be possible if you cancel within the 30 day period. But, if you cancel within 30 days, you may not be eligible for a full or partial refund.
