Do I need to buy a Swiss toll sticker if a German rental car company charged me 50 euros for a cross-border fee ?

I feel that the crossing fee and the expressway fee are two different things.

Germany and Switzerland are Schengen countries. There should be no toll for vehicles crossing the border, but some companies insist on charging a crossing service fee. Whether the fee collected is the Swiss expressway toll needs to be confirmed with the car company.

Transit fee may be an additional insurance, other fees should be refunded as required.

Help, on June 22nd, I was driving in Germany from Berlin to Munich and the King's Lake. When I rented the car, there was a pre-authorization of 124 euros. After returning to my country, I checked at the end of July and found that it had been unfrozen, so I thought everything was fine. However, on August 6th, the bank called me and informed me that there was a pre-sale right of around 29 points, which they said was the handling fee of the car rental company. It should be due to a traffic violation, and the German police will send a notice of violation to the address I provided in my country. I don't know how to pay the fine. Also, the address I provided is my driver's license address, which has been demolished, so I won't be able to receive any notification. How can I pay the fine, and what are the consequences if I don't pay it ? Germany Q&A

Violations generally do not receive information so quickly, unless they are fines issued on the spot. The pre-authorized deduction should be part of the fees charged by the car rental company other than the car rental. Please carefully check the bill to see if there are any fees that you did not notice. The car rental company will not help you handle violations, so they will not pre-authorize fees to handle them ?
