FEES! FEES! EVERYWHERE FEES!
First of all, I am not complaining. However,I hope that you will find these rental car
Fees as perplexing and as comical as I do. Most vacationers and business people just want a car.Therefore we do not look carefully at the fees. Case in point,in Miami,a
Premium rental car, usually about $70.00 a day,is $43.63 a day. For two days,the cost
Is $87.26. Good so far,BUT the TOTAL COST is $118.40! The total fees are $31.14,which is 35.6% of $87.26 Now, I am going to list each fee which is followed by a question.
Concession Recoup fee=$8.77 What IS a concession recoup fee?
Rental Car Facility charge=$9.20 Why do I have to pay rent to the airport?
Tire/battery fee= $0.04 The AMOUNT does not bother me,BUT, am I
Already renting a WHOLE car?
Florida Surcharge =$4.00 Is this another name for TAX?
Vehicle License Fee=$1.38 Why do I have to pay for SOMEBODY ELSES
License?
And last,but not least: Sales tax=$ 7.75 Why a SALES TAX? I am not
BUYING the car!
