I was under the impression I had already paid for the rental. They told me that was just a booking fee, and charged me an additional $50 USD. There also was an incredibly long wait to check in despite there being only one other person in line in front of me. The staff also said I could have asked to have my status transferred to the SA system, but I was not aware I needed to do this. I am wondering why I spent $50 through Kayak, will this be refunded?

I told them I didn’t want the additional insurance and they charged me for it anyways. Also please note they are closed at 1 on public holidays. Otherwise the experience was good.

KAYAK

Pros:

Nice new car. Easy dropoff.

Cons:

Pickup: had already paid insurance through kayak website. Was asked for insurance again, unsure what covered what. There should be communication between kayak and hertz, making it easier for the customer, and so you dont pay double up.

KAYAK

Pros:

Location was quite convenient. They also didn't charge additioanl fee for dropping the car at the airport (while pick up was in Cape Town City Centre).

Cons:

The had big problem processing my card, which worked everywhere else. I spent about 45 min waiting for all the arrangements.Additionally they charged me a "counter" fee, which is a bit crazy, because after all this is all a part of the rental process, so why would someone. With all, I paid 15% more, than the price advertised on Kyayak.

KAYAK

Pros:

nothing.

Cons:

I reserved a car for $60 online. When I arrived to the Herz Cape Town the person working told me he would need a credit card for a $3,000 deposit. Yup, three THOUSAND. When I pushed back and refused he said sorry, I couldn't rent a car. I have been renting cars for years and this is absolutely unheard of and very suspect. He tried to take my credit card and attempted to swipe it, even though I told him not to. The whole situation was very sketchy - I'm not sure if he was trying to steal my cc# or what, but needless to say we left and did not rent a car there.

KAYAK

Pros:

Picked up downtown and dropped off at airport

Cons:

Had to go into my home e-mail to print off confirmation as they said LDW insurance was mandatory and they wanted proof i had a contract without taking the insurance. No final paperwork was provided at the airport and I will have to check my credit card receipts to confirm the deposit was refunded.
