Why did I receive a toll, traffic fine, parking charge, or administration fee?

The authority creates the underlying charge; the rental company may add an amount allowed by the signed agreement.

The toll operator or issuing authority creates the underlying toll, fine, parking, congestion, or road-use charge. The rental company may separately apply an administration amount if the signed rental agreement allows it.

Check the rules for your rental company: Toll, fine, parking, and administration processes vary. Use the signed rental agreement and supporting notice for your rental. Some Airport Van Rental screens call the rental company the supplier.

Understand the two possible amounts

You may receive:

  1. The underlying event amount from a toll operator or authority

  2. A rental company administration amount for processing the notice, identifying the renter, or handling payment under the signed agreement

Paying or disputing one amount may not resolve the other.

Request the supporting records

Ask the rental company for:

  • The notice or event details

  • Date, time, and location

  • Vehicle registration or other vehicle identifier

  • The relevant clause in the signed rental agreement

  • An itemized final invoice

  • An explanation of whether the rental company paid the event or identified the renter

If you dispute the underlying event

Use the appeal instructions and deadline provided by the toll operator or authority. Airport Van Rental and the rental company do not set that authority’s process.

Do not ignore a notice while waiting for a separate rental company-fee review.

Check for duplicate billing

If you bought a toll product, compare its statement with the rental company invoice. Check whether the same date, time, location, or event appears twice. Send the rental company the toll-product record and invoice when you believe the billing is duplicated.

Evidence checklist

  • Voucher and signed rental agreement

  • Authority or toll notice

  • Rental company invoice

  • Toll-product statement, if applicable

  • Proof of payment

  • Relevant messages

Contact the issuing authority or toll operator about the underlying event and its appeal process. Contact the rental company about its administration amount and supporting records. Airport Van Rental can help identify the booking and rental company but does not decide an authority’s notice.
