There were issues with overcharging and unauthorized fees during both pick-up and drop-off. When picking up the car, they claimed we hadn't paid the one-way rental fee and demanded an immediate payment of AUD 230.52 to proceed. Half an hour after returning the car at Adelaide airport, an additional charge of AUD 34.16 was inexplicably made to our credit card.
There was no mention of this during the booking. It wasn't until I saw the charge on my credit card statement that I found out about an extra fee of around 100 yuan. After 10 days of inquiry, the car rental company claimed it was a special location pickup fee. They couldn't explain what constitutes a special location. I picked up the car at the airport, which I guess is pretty special! It feels unfair, even though the amount isn’t much, it's still frustrating. Seems like I need to understand the rules better next time.
