Holy shit. The contract that dude signed had a maximum fee of $35 for EV recharge, yet they charged him $277 and claimed the contract allowed that. Thankfully, the worst I’ve had from Hertz is they just told me to fuck off and didn’t give me my reserved vehicle.
And the company that charges “gas refueling fees” for a fully charged EV.

And here I thought they just didn’t like me… WTF kind of business is this lol
I’m not unconvinced that it isn’t just an elaborate money laundering company
Seinfeld even covered this decades ago, so it’s nothing new. Somehow the business model works? I don’t get it either; Captive audience I guess.
Business travel presumably and they don’t fuck them over?
