Overcharged for insurance. I don’t speak French. The one employee at this rural location did not speak English. My paperwork was not ready. She had never heard of my reservation until I showed her my kayak order . She charged me for extra insurance and made me “accept the super coverage”. I felt taken advantage of. Rental process took one hour as she was so busy running the gas station and could not find my paperwork. I want my “super insurance” money back from hertz. I already had purchased the Allianz insurance from hertz. I returned the car one day early and got no discount for that either. Thank you
