I experienced a great deal of inconvenience which actually felt a bit dodgy( almost like some kin of fraud). I was given the card machine to swipe for the total funds charged for the rental and the deposit. The amount was properly displayed on the screen and i swiped for it. However , to my surprise as i was still standing there another separate amount with a different figure came out of my account with ref from budget. I immediately queried with the consultant and he said something like 'the system withheld for itself some funds" . This was obviously very confusing to me. How does a system withhold funds from my account? how did these funds get our of my account without me authorising it? This is the reason i say it seems rather fraudulent. I had to escalate the matter to saps and had the issue resolved two days later- This was a big inconvenience over things that they themselves could not even explain- I am still very much unsettled by the lack of explanation to what cased this so-called system error. This experience rendered me to not trust Budget again or refer their services.
