As if Salik itself wasn't bad enough I read on gulf news yesterday that rental car companies were going to charge and "administrative fee" of 10% for each toll crossing.
I called my company today and they told me that they were going to charge 1 addtional dirham for each crossing (5 dhs per crossing!). I went ballistic and accused them of highway robbery and told them to come and pickup their damn car (25% increase for doing nothing!). Then they told me about an "option" (I deposit 500 dhs on an account and each toll is deducted at 4 dhs from the account). Had I not complained "loudly" they would be charging me 5 dhs for each crossing.
So if you are renting/leasing check with your company...
