Rented a home from company on the outer banks of North Carolina. Everything was wonderful until we drove 8 hours home to find an answering machine message from Surf or Sound stating they would be charging $300 to our credit card for damages to home (cabinet doors and broken window blinds) as well as garbage down the hallway.
We are 7 adults ranging in age from 40 - 76 (all family members) one of which was in a wheel chair. We broke nothing and garbage was in appropriate containers. Looking this company up on the internet we find this is their modus operandi, a way to get more $ from unsuspecting renters.
Something must be done about their fraudulent practices. Our vaction as been forever marred by Surf or Sound Realty. We plan on fighting charges with every tool we have, in cluding state attorney general's office, tourism boards, etc.
