What you need to know about Hertz
We receive many complaints about Hertz. For example, the company overcharged this customer by billing her for eight days instead of three. Here’s another customer who was overbilled for a rental. Also, this customer was banned by Hertz because of a $6 bill he didn’t know about. And the company did not include a spare tire with this customer’s car and refused to pay for towing. Recently, Hertz charged a customer without giving them a rental car. The related company, Dollar, bribed this customer.
