Like you stated, you're flight was for 4pm and you checked in at 3:45. When you check in at airport for your flight do you arrive 15min before?! Customers need to take responsibility when they don't follow directions.

They say the price is cheap on the front but they have hidden costs. When you go on site, they ask you to pay $35 per person as well extra $ if you want a longer flight. We paid the extra $ for longer flight however the flight was only 20 minutes but we were promised $25 minutes worth of flight.

There are no hidden fees. The heliport fee is paid on the premises or included when you book your tour. You were asked if you wanted to upgrade and you agreed no one forced you and you did take the extended tour. Customers need to read when making a booking.
