The last time this happened they had to re-issue the invoice 5 times to remove all the extra charges they added on, each time saying "oh, but everyone must pay this charge", then me showing them the voucher which said the charges were already included.

But now I know what to expect and adding on car hire does have such a nice effect on the ticket price. BUT IT COULD BE SO MUCH BETTER!!!
