Fastphone rentals

I have chosen fastphone rentals for our cell phone while in Aruba. I got an e-mail from them asking where the Occidental was. They also told me to call them when I arrive to arrange for them to drop off the phone. I am just wondering if this is the norm? I thought they would have known where the Occidental was--I couldn't give them directions, but did give them the address. I had asked them to deliver it around 6:00 pm, but do they normally ask you to call them? Just wondering.
Thanks again for your help

Delivery is a very recent development for FastPhones, so maybe they have a few glitches to iron out. I am surprised that didn't know where the Occidental is located. Maybe they've been too busy running their business to know where the resorts are located, but I would have thought they would have just Googled it. FWIW, I used them last year when they had the airport kiosk, and I received good service.

Fastphones is not what it used to be. I will be returning my phone tomorrow. You are supposed to drop it off at the airport kiosk as she still has a drop box there.

When I get home I will do a full report...
