Legal question. Rental Car Company.

Long story short I hit a rental car. The damages were minimal, and my insurance took care of them. What they didn't take care of though were some fees that the rental company is now asking me to pay out of pocket. Administration, loss of use, and loss of value total up to ~$420. The insurance company does not pay these things because there is no quantifiable proof behind them.

If I don't pay, what sort of action or consequence can I expect? The rental representative has not returned my call.

I said that in a nice way on the voice mail I left. I told them it seemed like they were just trying to squeeze some extra cash out of me. I'm hoping they'll leave me alone now that I have called, but I don't expect them to.

Everything I see online in regards to this is for when you rent a car from a rental company, not when you're at fault in an accident. I don't see that they have much to stand on in this case, because you're not the one who signed the rental contract.... but I would ask someone else, and if they don't contact you about it fug 'em. Only issue is if they turn it over to collections... but I really don't see how they can.

Fug them what can they do? You didn't rent the car nor do they have anything with you social so they can't ding your credit.

They are not going to get a lawyer over 420 bucks of frivolous charges. Do us all a favor and tell its what shitttyass company it is so we can avoid using them.

I contacted my insurance before calling the rental company and they could offer no advice as it is not their specialty. Enterprise is the company.

My first instinct would be to make my insurance company deal with it. That is why you pay them every month. I'm not saying they should pay it they should just handle it for you.

      Would you trade Ickey

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.

      We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      I didn't say I would have done it. I was just saying that I can see why some in the FO considered it. Everything was done to give Bryce weapons. Solidify the interior line thru FA. Get XL at WR in round 1 and then get the most talented RB in round 2. Take a TE in round 4, etc They were probably "assuming" he'd make a complete recovery during the 2024 season. I'm a skeptical person. I wouldn't have assumed he'd be ok in 2024. I personally would have taken another position in the 2nd for that very reason. But, if I were "influenced" to take him I would've argued to keep him off the field, especially seeing how things were going for us record wise. Conventional Wisdom says most backs don't get back to normal until two years after the ACL surgery. He was injured in Fall 2023. Having him suit up in 2025 would have been almost 2 years since the original injury. You have him for 3 year on low contract. If he balls out, you resign him for a couple of more years b/c he'd only have 3 years of tread on the tires. If he's ok but not great you let him walk.
