Argus Car Hire

We have recently returned from Majorca and we are not happy. We booked a car through Argus Car Hire, a Ford Fiesta or Similar. We paid 9.50 euros to Argus (Car Trawler) & £33.39 to mondial assistance for the CWD insurance. We got a e-mail from Argus telling us we would still have to pay 95.00 euros & 29.24 for a booster seat. When we arrived at Palma Airport we headed over to the Goldcar Rental desk. Rather than paying 124.24 euros we got charged 259 euros!!! £237. We took the car as it was need for our trip. We have complained to Argus (car trawler) and await the outcome of our case. If you plan in hiring a car check for any hidden costs etc, or hire the car once you get to your resort. It seems ripping off tourists is at a all time high.
