ERRONOUSLY CHARGED, TWICE!!!!!!

<p>On 16 December I rented a car from HERTZ, the initial qoute online was R1381; however this was on Standard cover and I wanted Supercover Insurance. When I got to the airport to collect the car I was advised that the total amount for the three days on Super cover was R1867, in addition they would reserve a deposit of R4000 for fuel and security. In total an amount of R5867 was blocked off my cheque card and then I had to wait for over 35 minutes for the car which I was told was going to take 10 min. During the whirlwind inspection I requested the gentleman assisting me to also document the kilometres as is the norm with other car rental companies; however his response was that it was already done and not to worry,</p> <p> </p> <p>However on the invoice I received; I noted that I had been charged for addidtional 50 kilometres which is an absolute lie!!!! I only drove around locally, and on two of the three days, the car was mostly parked in one area so there is no way I could have used up 300 kilometres over the weekend. After calling the call centre, i was advised that there was an error and that I had been overcharged by 3 kilometres, however that just proves my point that someone might have captured the mileage incorreclty to begin with!!!!</p> <p> </p> <p>In addition, on December 25, instead of getting my refund, I receive a notification from my bank that Heryz has further charged me an amount of R2417 which does not make sense considering that they already reserved R5867!!!! I have called your call centre on several occassions but I was kept holding for close to 5 minutes and the call dropped before speaking to to someone from the billing department. Kinldy look into this matter and reverse the transaction at once!</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

Good day,

I find your generic reply a tad condenscending if not insulting. I have included the car rental details in this post and in addition already sent an email to the Hertz customer relations department. Please stop stalling and address the issuesor even better, reverse the transaction you incorrectly billed and just so we are clear; my aaccount is now overdrwan because of your thievery and I will not be liable for the bank fees.
