Furthermore, the most disturbing was that Hertz said he broke the terms of their legal contract by returning the car 5 hours early and they used the best rate available at the time.. Also mentioned if he reopens the claim, they would take him to collections?? Really?? Any thoughts, The difference is about $500 so I mentioned to him (and sent him) the link for the arbitration thread on FT. He’s frustrated, thinking about even letting it go but I said I believe he should pursue because he did nothing wrong.

I looked at one of my rental receipts and it clearly says that the rate may be changed if you return more than 24 hours or less than 24 hours of the required return time..

Any advice would be greatly appreciated AutoSlash and others
I met with my friend last night, he had good news. He called into Hertz customer service and they adjusted the charge to the original amount quoted..
