本地租车公司被指突然涨租车费,私召车司机申诉数个月前才签下三年合约,如今公司重新评估合约,要他们再签新约,但租金每日从82元涨至130元,加价约50%,大叹无法接受。

私召车司机许先生(54岁)和梁先生(51岁)日前皆向《新明日报》指出,他们数月前向Lumens旗下一家名为Focus rentals的公司租车,当时签订的合约是包括保险在内,价格为每天82元,但本月15日早上却突然接到公司负责人通知,要他们去公司商量新配套。

“当我们去了解后,公司职员要求我们签新的配套,否则就要归还汽车。而在新的配套下,每天的租车费高达130元,等于涨价超过50%。”

许先生指出,他租车开车近20年了,此前也曾向不同的公司租车,但还是首次碰到这种突然加价的情况。

他猜测,相信是最近“Autobahn”的事件,导致不少人纷纷另租车子,他质疑本身的租车费才因此被调涨。

“我们当初签署的是三年合约,就是希望有个保障,但公司却说合约中有一条例,就是公司随时可重新评估后终止租约。如果公司可按照它们的利益更改,那合约年限还有什么意义?”

他指虽然在新配套下,公司会在三年内,每半年回扣500元,但回扣的次数只有三次,反之这段期间,他们却需要每天支付130元。

“而且对方也无法保证,如果签署新合约后,接下来会不会再突然更改。”有鉴于此,两人都已经打算终止租约。

涉事租车公司否认 因同行出问题而涨价​

Lumens负责人透露,评估逾300份租车配套,在有回扣的情况下涨幅介于两三成,但他否认是因同行出现问题才趁机涨价。

这家公司行政总监詹舜全(46岁)受访时指出,去年9月重新评估租车配套时发现,部分租金确实太低,才进行调涨,至今已审查逾300份合约,当中有100名顾客考虑后不续约,作出投诉的顾客少过5%。

他指决定调整价格后,都会给于顾客一个月通知,若司机不满意,也可选择终止合约,而此过程中,确实也有司机向国会议员投诉,但公司为了持续经营,只能这么做,因为之前的配套评定得太便宜。

“大部分调整价格的车款都是丰田Cross,这款车的售价约18万元,但每个月的租金只有数千元,仅足以维持成本。而且这些车里程数一般上都很高,等10年拥车证到期后出售价格也不高。”

他强调,调整后的价格涨幅没到五成,只要顾客租车期间没有发生车祸,就会每半年拿到回扣,每日租车费约107元。

他也澄清公司绝非因为Autobahn出问题才趁机涨价。

Controversy over the price increase of private car drivers' rental fees

• Two private car drivers in Singapore appealed, as car rental company Focus Rentals suddenly required them to sign a new contract, increasing the rent from 82 to 130 yuan per day, a rise of about 50%.

• Drivers believe that the three-year contract, signed only months ago, has completely lost its security, and question the company's use of the "Autobahn" incident or other reasons to raise prices.

• Zhan Shunquan, a representative of the car rental company, stated that when reassessing car rental packages in September last year, they found some rental prices too low, so they raised the price by about two to three percent, and denied that it was an opportunity to increase prices.

• The person in charge emphasized that most of the adjusted car rental fees are only sufficient to cover the costs, and the company offers rebates. If drivers are dissatisfied, they can also choose to terminate the contract.
