The Avis rep said that he was unable to explain it and that to cancel the booking and to make a fresh booking as a walk-in customer would cost more.

Can someone on this extremely helpful forum give me an idea what happened and the best way to deal with Avis about the problem? I have used Avis many times and have never had a problem. Many thanks G
