Many soldiers had seen up to that they could spend easter in a cottage.
Unfortunately, corona-the crisis spoiled many people’s vacation plans. If you have rented a vacation house, however, it is not certain that you can get your money back. It had a married couple from Borum, near Aarhus true.
For the couple, consisting of Thomas and Sidsel Holleufer had rented a cottage in the Loop for the tidy sum of 23.500 crowns, where together with the family on a total of 20 people would spend the easter week, they tell to Aarhus Stiftstidende.
As the coronavirus came across the plans, wanted the couple, however, no longer have to take in a holiday home, why they contacted the rental company DanCenter and investigated whether it was possible to rebook or cancel and get the money back.
According to Thomas Holleufer, however, it was not solutions, as the rental company was on the.
“Dancenter was either to chop or poke in. They would just want their money – all 100 percent. The message sounded: “There is no that prevents you to use the cottage. In must, of course, just have to find out whether you will be together, ‘” says Thomas Holleufer to Aarhus Stiftstidende, and continues:
“I think that we were put in an impossible situation. It would be totally unsafe to meet up to 20 men from all parts of the country.”
Thomas Holleufer said to the media that he did not feel that the DanCenter shows the community spirit in a period where otherwise there is much talk about that you should demonstrate public spiritedness.
DanCenter tell the dog to the media, that they just follow the rules.
They emphasize that the authorities have made it illegal to take in the vacation house, why it is not possible for DanCenter to accommodate a cancellation or a refund. The situation is not covered by the company’s ‘force majeure’, explains managing director Kim Holmsted to Aarhus Stiftstidende.
the Director says further that there is also a house owner on the other end of each booking and expects to receive his payment for renting out his holiday home, why it will create problems, if the bearings need to have their money back.
Aarhus Stiftstidende consulted by the Consumer council Think, that says that it is something purely legal, in the type of cases, as it is not the landlord who breaks the agreement, but instead, it is the tenants who do not wish to use the cottage anyway.
despite the fact that DanCenter comply with the rules, then tells mr and mrs Thomas and Sidsel Holleufer, nevertheless, for the media, that they do not intend to use the rental company a second time.
Previously B. T. talked with a number of danes, who, like Thomas and Sidsel Holleufer had looked forward to spend their time in a cottage rented through DanCenter.
Also in the case did corona-the crisis, that they did not want to make use of the rented holiday homes anyway, why they would either rebook or have the money back. Something that executive director Kim Holmsted also then told, would be able to get great consequences for the DanCenter.
“So can I close the business down and lay off 270 employees. We can’t compensate the guests and let the owners keep the money at the same time,” said Kim Holmsted at the time to B. T.
