Zipcar customer care and support service

Zipcar is the world’s largest car sharing service. It is owned by the American parent company Avis Budget Group, and was founded in 2000. The company currently has over 1 million members and a fleet of about 10,000 rental cars. It operates across 500 cities in 9 different countries, including Spain, France, Austria, the United Kingdom, Turkey, the United States, and Canada.

Zipcar merged with another rental car service, Flexcar, in 2007, and later acquired the Barcelona-based company Avancar. In 2014, it expanded its services to the Houston and Dallas, TX areas, as well as to Toronto and Ontario, Canada. Most recently, it expanded to Ottawa, Canada in 2015, and has announced plans to offer service in Brussels, Belgium.

Zipcar works by providing its members with vehicle rentals that are billed hourly or daily. Users create an online account and receive an access card through the mail, which can then be used to access any nearby Zipcar. Waving the card at a sensor unlocks the car door, allowing the user to get the keys, which are located inside. A meter in the car tracks its location and how long it is used for. After returning the car to its original Zipcar station, members are billed for the reservation charge. Members also pay a monthly or annual membership fee and a one-time application fee. Reservation charges already include fuel, parking, insurance, and maintenance fees. Users can make reservations through the Zipcar mobile app, Zipcar’s website, or by phone up to one year in advance.

  1. I have been a Zipcar member for over 10 years and I have say to as the years go by your customer service has plummeted every year since to an all time low. As I right this review I have been on hold for 1 hour and 41 minutes to speak to a customer service rep to cancel my membership. This is not the first I have called. When will this end?
