Sixt sent me a message encouraging me to check in early for my car rental. But to do so, I have to consent to a biometric face scan that their third-party contractor keeps on file. No thanks.

    I’ve never rented a car so I’m curious, what benefits does checking-in early actually get you? I assume you still need to talk to a person and go through the whole upselling thing they’re notorious for. Accidental damage cover? Fuel cover? Rain cover? Excess cover? Excess cover excess cover?
