The Budget did not give me my deposit back. 200 USD were charged as a deposit on the date of car rent. But after I gave the car back - it was not sent me back. Please pay back my deposit of 200 USD

Budget cancelled my rental 2days ahead saying there weren’t enough cars and that I’d have a hard time finding one at all. Not true. I got one easily from enterprise.
