Overcharged on rental

<p>On 22 December, we rented a car from the King Shaka Airport Branch. The Consultant then cheerfully advised us that she is giving us an upgrade an no extra cost. Overall the service was good. We drove to to Ashburton , and travelled no further than PMB town. On the 24th prior to returning the car we topped the tank up at the Sasol Garage situated a short distance from the Bidvest Car Parking lot in the amount of R132,98, 12.37 litres, Pump no 3 at 15:18. The office personnel soonafter advised us to leave the car with the attendant in the parking lot. The bill received a few days later showed fuel costs, refuelling fee and an inflated mileage reading. Thinking that it was an error given the busy period I sent an email requesting them to correct the bill. I received a response from the Customer Care Manager advising that the matter is being looked. A follow up email was sent a few days later after no response was forthcoming. I have now received an email from Sinothile Zwane on 9/1/requesting that I provide a copy of the refuelling slip and that we travelled 382 kilometres and not 182. The amount overcharged is negligible, however based on principle I refuse to accept this *****ed behaviour.</p> <p> Refer to bill as below:</p> <p><strong>Grp charged : A FF85FZGP 2016/12/22 18:11 2016/12/24 15:30 2 Days</strong></p> <p><strong>EDMR-Renault Sandero 66kw King Shaka Intl Airpor King Shaka Intl Airport</strong></p> <p><strong>25934 Out Kms 26316 In Kms 382 Kms</strong></p> <p><strong>2 Days @ R 169.00 per Day 338.00</strong></p> <p><strong>182 Kms @ R 1.81 per Km 329.42</strong></p> <p><strong>Fuel Costs Vat Exempt 15.80 Litres 195.50</strong></p> <p><strong>CDW Top Up @ R 49.50 per Day 99.00</strong></p> <p><strong>TLW TOP UP @ R 49.50 per Day 99.00</strong></p> <p><strong>Etolls 20.00</strong></p> <p><strong>Contract Fee 73.00</strong></p> <p><strong>Refuelling Fee 15.00</strong></p> <p><strong>E Toll Admin Fee 20 % Etolls 4.00</strong></p> <p><strong>Charge Period Sub Total : 1172.92</strong></p> <p><strong>Co2 Emission - 45840.00gms</strong></p> <p>--------------------------------------------------------------------------</p>
