Amazing customer service
I had a hiccup at the car rental place and had to cancel my reservation. The car rental place approved my cancellation and approved the refund. When I contacted Discovercars, Dmitrijs helped me resolve this issue and processed my refund and waive the cancellation fee due to the circumstances. Very responsive and helpful! Thank you Dmitrijs!
