They took a $200 deposit from me without mentioning when it would be refunded. My friend rented from the same company and wasn’t charged a deposit, so it felt unfair.
The Chinese staff suggested that I upgrade to a diesel vehicle, claiming the Highlander consumes six tanks of gas while the diesel would only use one. The upgrade cost $450. I was almost scammed.
A toll fee of 5 dollars was charged an extra 33 dollars as a management fee by Hertz. They are really ripping off Chinese customers, knowing you won't dispute it once you return to your country. This really leaves a bad impression of Australia.
Customer reception was a little dodgy. I was pressured to pay for an upgrade. The company didn't actually have the compact vehicle I had booked, but did not disclose this. I persevered with my booked smaller vehicle and the company rep had to admit that they could only supply a larger vehicle (for no extra cost). The vehicle also had some cosmetic damage that was not disclosed. I had to take my own photos to prove to Hertz that the vehicle had some damage that their own pre-rental inspection did not show.
