    additional charges were outrages! i was late for the pick up cause of canceled flight, delayed train ride etc. So first i was convinced it was their after working hours so i will be charged! then they have had some nicer cars where i can pick for an upgrade where i was charged 30% then realized they dont even have my prefred calls and would have to give me one of the upgrades anyway. then i was told they will wvae the addtional after hours service charge however what i see in my invoice is addtional charges and plus taxes on those charges... finally i pay more then the rental value that i paid to QeeQ to addtional service cahrges to rent the car! what is a service fee if your job is to supply a rental car? i will never ever pick a car from either Hertz or Thrifty!
