you can''t really amend an alamo brits booking.

what it does, when you try to change, is make a new booking, take full payment for the new booking, and then refund the total amount of the previous booking.

it should be seamless (obviously it wasn't in your case) but be aware that "amending" an alamo brits booking will result in the full charge hitting your CC. Depending on billing cycles, you may get the refund before, at the same time or after the new charge hits.

so there are basically 2 ways to change a brits booking
- try and modify the reservation
- make a new reservation yourself, and cancel the previous one once the new one is confirmed

but it will have the same outcome, as far as CC charges go.

if you can't change your reservation on the site, go the rebook then cancel way. (make new booking BEFORE cancelling the previous one, just in case the new one doesn't go through for whatever reason) but in any event, "amending" a brits booking requires you to have available funds on your CC, for the full amount of the rental.
