Despite purchasing a full insurance package, both branches charged insurance fees without verification (they didn't even bother to promote it), consumption tax, terminal usage fees, and fuel fees. They also overcharged me for an extra day of rental. The car was not handed over with a full tank of fuel, and although I returned it with more fuel than when I picked it up, they still deducted a fuel fee. The total charges were nearly double the amount confirmed on the platform! This is serious fraud! As a long-time user, this was my worst experience. Please give me a reasonable explanation and solution, Zuzuche platform.
I specifically booked a Hertz Highlander, but only a Sorento was available at pickup. The price for a Sorento is half at other shops. The car had a bad odor throughout! Pickup was at 7 PM and drop-off at 8 PM. I confirmed that a one-hour delay was permissible, but was charged for at least half a day.
The experience with Hertz was terrible. Do not choose this company. The system is chaotic, and every employee seems clueless about their job. They overcharge without reason, the refund process takes forever, there's no way to file complaints, and nobody takes responsibility. The handover process is extremely disorganized. The car itself had some minor issues. Additionally, they didn't mention any problems when the car was returned, but few days later they claimed there were scratches for which I couldn’t prove the responsibility, and they charged my credit card without my consent. Their actions are extremely unacceptable. Complaining to the rental platform didn’t help at all, still no resolution. Very poor service.
Picking the vehicle up from Auckland Airport was a little frustrating as the vehicle we hired wasn't ready for collection as it hadn't been cleaned. Required us to stand around and wait patiently whilst this happened.
Coming off a 3.5hr flight with 2 kids isn't exactly what you want to do as I had made the booking nearly 4 weeks prior, so the Hertz team had plenty of notice to get the vehicle ready.

I arrived in auckland domestic terminal with 4 large luggages and 2 small ones. I went to hertz in domestic terminal. The staff told me, my booking is in the international terminal. I had to brought all the suitcases walking over 15 minutes because I couldn't take the terminal bus.
Once in the international terminal, I went all the way to the car rental pick and found there is nobody in the counter. I asked someone inside the parking lot, apparently I had to go back to inside the international terminal because the counter is in there. (Thanks to the confusing signs I walked back again to the internal terminal counter). There was only 1 staff there and she was nice and polite.
Got my keys and walked back to parking lot. After I drove off, there was no one to verify if there was spots or defects in the car but fine with me.
Few days later, I went back to return the car, again there was no staff in the parking lot. I was confused because I expected I could check out immediately and someone would check if the car is fine and release my deposit. So I just parked the car, brought the key with me. I walked back to the terminal, and found the counter empty.
There was a sign saying "be right back in 15 mins". I waited 15 mins, there was still noone. Luckily there is a key drop. So I dropped my key there.
This is the most surreal car rental experience I've ever had. There is nobody who received the car back, I just dropped the key. I hope nobody is going to do anything weird with the car while I dropped of the car.

I booked the car but was not told that I should go to the international terminal counter instead of the domestic counter. That was slightly confusing because I had to walk pretty far to get there.
I also blamed Auckkland airport for being very confusing and understaffed for my trouble.
The car was excellent, the pick up from Auckland was seamless but the drop off at Wellington Airport was difficult as the rental drop off area wasn’t signposted, the Hertz staff eventually resolved it but it took a lot longer than it should.

Although the staff provided service in Chinese, they spoke very little. The actual card charge was more than the amount shown on the car rental website without any explanation. It wasn't until I consulted the rental company after returning to Beijing that I slightly understood why. Overall, it caused unease.
