Dear Sirs,
Re: Coupon #MUJ8745
I recently applied for the above coupon, the details of which ran in the national press earlier this
month. I am a 35-year-old with a clean driving, no traffic violation, a perfect credit record, and no
criminal background. However, when I tried to apply for this rental offer, I was treated like a
common criminal.
I object strongly to the fact that I was fingerprinted and my prints were run through police
records. All I wanted to do was to take advantage of a $15 rental discount. I had heard that
Johnson’s Motors operates according to very strict guidelines, but this is ridiculous. Furthermore,
my application was rejected with no explanation other than, “Sorry, you do not fit our rental
criteria”. I cannot begin to imagine who you do rent cars to.

I will be warning all my friends and acquaintances against using Johnson’s Motors.
Sincerely,
Mathew Jernsted
