Woodford Car hire KSA overcharging for kilometers included

I booked a vehicle through Rental Cars at King Shaka airport for 2 days at Woodford Car Hire. I paid in advance for 2 days - this included 400 kms. Booking Reference Number: *** Pick up time 21 November 2023 7:30 Drop-off time 22 November 2023 8:00

In total I travelled 339kms, e.g. less which was included. Now they are trying to charge me for additional kilometers - 139 kms. The e-mails are flying forth and back from Customer Services agent Syabonga Ngubane with no amicable result whatsoever. Subsequently I have escallated this to Mr Adrian Ray Naidoo at King Shaka Airport - Woodford branch. However, Mr Naidoo has chosen to refer me back to Syabonga. Now we are in a spiral that leads nowhere. I have also asked Syabonga on 5 occasions for the contact details of a more senior person in the organisation in order for me to escalate the matter with no result.

I find this behaviour ********* and unprofessional.

Reviewer Update
This response from Abigail Mentor does not assist with solving the problem whatsoever. The e-mail address is crossed out and it appears in exactly the same format and wording to other responses from other complainants with the customer services e-mail address as the contact person. Every time e-mails to customer services ends up with Syabonga Ngubane who stated clearly that he/she cannot assist. He/she persists that the booking was made for 1 day though all booking vouchers and invoices shows clearly that the booking was made for 2 days. After various requests, still Syabonga fails to present me with the contact details of a more senior person to whom I can escalate the problem to for resolution.
