Thrifty staff were incompetent during pick up. Finally, They sent me an invoice thrice your quote. Which iam disputing. Please help me dispute if you can.
In hindsight, I would have hired a bigger car than a Swift. It was a wee uncomfortable as every bump on the road was felt. I'm not sure whether because the car was too small or because the tyres were an inch thick. I prefer the regular standard tyres which can absorb the bumps and have a comfortable ride instead of slick-looking tyres with a bumpy uncomfortable ride.
