Any way to change a hotwire trip?
I booked a car on Hotwire for a trip I plan on taking next week. Unfortunately a job interview that my travel companion has been waiting for four months came up so we have to change the date of the trip by 1 day. Any chance I can either convince hotwire to let me start (and end) my trip a day late or cancel the reservation?
For whatever it's worth, Hotwire has the WORST phone system I've ever dealt with. At least half the time you press whatever # you want to go to the next menu and it never connects you. I've been hung up on repeatedly after being placed on hold as well.

If booked as a "Hot Rate", you will not be able to modify or cancel. If a regular rate, you should be able to change online.
IMHO, with all the available (ethical) affiliate codes and price shopping websites available, prepaying a for a non-refundable rental car is rarely worth the savings.
