Two German women rented a “Wicked” van in Alice Springs, Australia to take on a 17 day trip.
The problem was that whenever they hit a puddle the van would quit. This combined with the vehicle running out of oil by 800km and then again at another 400km, made them call the Wicked hotline. They were told to take the van to Darwin so a company mechanic could look at it.
When they got to Darwin the company said they could return the van if they were unhappy with it.
Let’s review: The van dies whenever a dog pisses on the tires and it sucks down oil like cold stubbies on a hot day. Now why wouldn’t they want to keep it?
At any rate they asked for a refund for the unused days on the rental and were told it just ain’t happening.
The representative for Wicked did have a brief comment for the press.
The Wicked depot boss yesterday would not talk to the Northern Territory News.
“It’s all good and I don’t care, so f… off,” he said.
Wicked spokesman Stephen Sealey was not available for a comment.
Ah, yes. Customer service at it’s best.
