So as per Hertz SA:
"Your prepaid amount does not include the contract fee, which is applicable to every rental agreement as there are costs associated with the mandatory 5 year storage period of all legal contracts.
The contract fee is never included in any rate or quote- it is a location charge."
This seems to be inline with -

Needless to say, it is very well hidden, and the amount I was actually charged was not exactly R72,00
