Wrong and wrong. I took one to the airport today, I called thirty minutes ahead, and it cost less than a metered fare.

Where in Australia are you, and what company did you use? In both Sydney and Melbourne, all the hire cars I know of cost more.

Melbourne, and I have a VHA account. Metered fares from my home to MEL are inflated by extensive never-ending roadworks. The fixed-rate private hire cars are excellent value for that route. For everything else it's a modest premium, and one I'm very happy to pay.
