Car Rental Cancellation Policy

1. Introduction

Our Car Rental Cancellation Policy is designed to clarify procedures and expectations regarding reservation cancellations. This policy outlines the steps customers need to follow when canceling a booking to ensure transparency and fairness in managing reservations. It covers the applicable fees or charges associated with cancellations based on the timing of the cancellation relative to the rental period.

Our goal is to provide clear guidelines that protect both our customers and our business interests, ensuring efficient utilization of our rental fleet and maintaining high service standards. This policy also aims to foster trust and reliability by setting clear expectations for both parties involved in the rental transaction.

2. Cancellation Procedure

2.1 Contact Methods: To initiate a cancellation of their reservation with CarNGo, customers are required to use one of the following methods:

2.1.1 Phone: Customers can call our customer service team at 1-604-328-9249 during operating hours to request a cancellation.

2.1.2 Email: Alternatively, customers may send an email to customerservice@carngo.mx with their reservation number and full name clearly stated in the subject line or body of the email.

2.1.3 Online Portal: For convenience, customers can also log into our secure online portal at CarNGo and follow the designated cancellation process.  Karol does our system allow for this?

2.2 Information Required: Regardless of the cancellation method chosen, customers must provide their reservation number and full name as registered on the reservation. This information ensures accurate identification of the booking to expedite the cancellation process.

3. Cancellation Fees and Charges

3.1 Fee Structure Based on Timing:

3.1.1 More than 10 days Before the Scheduled Rental Start Time: Customers who cancel their reservation more than 10 days before the scheduled rental start time will not incur any cancellation fees and will receive a 100% refund. This policy allows CarNGo to accommodate changes in customer plans without financial penalty, demonstrating our commitment to flexibility and customer satisfaction.

3.1.2 Between 10 and before 5 days of the Scheduled Rental Start Time: Cancellations made within 5 days of the scheduled rental start time will result in a cancellation fee equivalent to 50% of the rental cost. This fee compensates CarNGo for reserving a vehicle that may go unused, thereby mitigating potential revenue loss. It reflects the operational costs incurred in preparing the vehicle and holding the reservation, as well as the opportunity cost of not renting the vehicle to other potential customers during that period.  The other 50% of the rental cost will be refunded.

3.1.3 No-show or Cancellation Within 5 Days Of the Scheduled Rental Start Time: In the event of a no-show or cancellation within 5 days of the scheduled rental start time, the full rental cost will be charged to the customer. This charge covers the costs associated with vehicle preparation, reservation holding, and the inability to rent the vehicle to other customers during the reserved time slot. It ensures that CarNGo is compensated for the full commitment of resources made to fulfill the rental reservation.

4. Refund Policy 

4.1 Conditions for Refunds: Refunds for cancellations will be processed strictly in accordance with the terms outlined in the Cancellation Fees and Charges section above. Customers must adhere to the cancellation procedures specified to qualify for a refund. Failure to follow the established cancellation process may result in the forfeiture of any refund entitlement.  Refunds will be based on the exchange rate at the time of purchase.

4.2 Refund Processing Time: Upon approval of a valid cancellation request, refunds will be promptly processed by CarNGo. The refunded amount will be credited back to the original method of payment used for the reservation within 21 business days. This timeframe is standard in the banking industry and ensures timely reimbursement to customers, maintaining transparency and reliability in our refund process. Customers can track the status of their refund through our customer service channels or by accessing their reservation details online.
