I signed up, paid €1.50 and was only then told I wasn't eligible. I can imagine they're going to be doing a lot of €1.50 refunds

I'm considering renting a Model Y from Hertz in Calgary for three months, but their pricing model is a complete mess: 23/01 -> 30/04 C$10,952.88 (C$111.76 / day) ... but pick it up a day earlier and it's C$4,000

I'd love to start recommending my friends use Organic Maps over Maps.me, but it's missing one critical feature: https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/issues/622 https://github.com&#x
