\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My latest experience renting from Avis, which unfortunately ended on a sour note. Every rental I’ve ever done, I’ve picked the car up with a full tank of gas and dropped it off full. I did the same this time and was very suprised to see a $14 fuel surcharge listed on my bill.<\/p>\n

Emailing Avis immediately to point out that my receipt shows the “Fuel In” was 8\/8 (or full) resulted in their request for a gas station receipt or a credit card statement. Fortunately for me, I had saved my receipt and expect to hear back from Avis this week regarding my fax.<\/p>\n
