Ok..we seem to be getting closer to the actual facts as they occured. I was not aware that this was a long term rental. I understand now why you were so motivated to beat the company out of the under 25 fee. A $1600 surcharge would motivate a lot of people to try a sneaky move. The problem is you got caught. It is also now clear why they no longer want you as a customer.

A) Avis and other's do not want to rent to people under 25. The risk is just too high. The State of New York has legislated that auto rental companies MUST rent to this age bracket, however they may add a reasonable surcharge to cover the additional liability. $110. per day is a figure that is generally adequate to disuade any underage renters. Somehow..right or wrong.. you slipped thru. When the company became aware of it, they persued the matter by calling and probing you. When you did not return the vehicle on their demand...you were done! I don't care what the security person told you. He does not set the policy for Avis,The CONTRACT does. When in doubt..READ THE CONTRACT!

Re: "Black Card"- It's by Amex, not Avis. And you are correct, I am the Pauper that was not familiar with the term "Black Card" and inquired about it a while back. It is indeed an unofficial nickname for the Amex Centurian Card.

And I apologize.I now know that you did not fight over a $100.00. You sure fought like a s.o.b. over the $1600.00 though didn't you ?

Well..time to move on. It was a good scam and you got away with it. You took the company for $1600.00 and those "zany guys" gave you a boot in the ... out the door and said "don't come back".

Are you still waiting by the phone for Mr. Security Man to return your call ?
