Herman Cook Volkswagen responded

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and for being a loyal Herman Cook Volkswagen service customer. We truly appreciate your continued business. We understand your concern regarding the 3% service charge on credit card transactions. This fee was implemented to help offset rising processing costs, and we always aim to be transparent about it. We also continue to offer alternative payment methods—including debit cards and cash—that do not incur any additional fees. That said, we never want a policy change to diminish the positive service experience you’ve come to expect from us. Your satisfaction is extremely important, and we would welcome the opportunity to discuss this further or answer any questions. Please feel free to contact me directly at 760-753-6256, and thank you again for sharing your perspective.
