    Hidden insurance fees were not disclosed by the staff. They concealed this from customers. The customer service was unhelpful, making me suspicious they might be colluding for profit. I will not use their services again.

    Dollar doesn't pressure you to upgrade your car. Last time at San Francisco Airport, Thrifty kept suggesting I pay extra to upgrade to a Kia sedan because the staff thought the car I rented was too small to fit all the luggage and passengers. In reality, it fit just fine.

    Of all the rental places fox is by far the least user friendly. There are no counters to return car at San Jose airport. You return it to the parking garage and they walk up to you. Good thing is cars are usually upgraded but the cars I have had are pretty beat up and they do a poor job of cleaning them.

    Only nasty surprise was the added bridge-crossing fee. $8 to cross the Golden Gate, then Hertz adds another $6 in "convenience fees". Don't know what planet they are living on but that is a 75% increase, unexpected and extortionate. Bad move, Hertz, you'll be my last choice in the future.
