I'm surprised the major companies allow stuff like this to happen. As Franchisees of these companies, they should do more to protect their brands and reputations.


In most cases, they are NOT franchises of what you deal with in the US. You are NOT in the US and sadly, this stuff happens. It doesn't make it right but people need to understand (just like with some of the timeshare mess), you don't have the same protections you do at home.


If they are not franchisees, then how can one go to (for instance) Hertz.com and book a car in SXM? All the major car rental websites let you book a car in SXM, which tells me they are franchisees and should help you in situations where the locals are trying to rip you off.
