At this point I would make it my personal hobby (and mission) to be a major pain the rear for Avis. Sue them in small claims court for time and expenses dealing with their mistakes (since you never actually completed a contract with them, presumably an arbitration clause in the contract doesn’t apply). Then create a website (say howavisscrewedmeover.com) and post my experience and post links to it everywhere Avis is discussed.
