The Thrifty counter staff initially tried to charge me the rental fee. I emphasized that I had already prepaid through ZUZUCHE. After checking the rental slip for a while, they finally didn't charge me again. When returning the car, there were no staff available. After parking, I handed the key to the counter in the arrivals hall. Later, they charged my card 36 AUD for an unknown reason. Since the amount is small, I didn't bother to investigate.
