Guest myboysjam Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Hi, my oh is going out first at the end of next month and we have been looking into hiring a car to start with, however all the sites I have looked at they want a swipe of your credit card, however we don't have one, we do however, have one of those prepay mastercards but I don't know if that would do the job or not and if so, how much would I need to have on it for it to be used. Any advice please???? :cute: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Have a read of this thread, something in there may be of use http://www.pomsinoz.com/forum/dilemmas/121040-we-havnt-got-credit-card-car-hire-what-can-we-do.html I think the key thing is to check with any and all car hire firms you may book with. If not, shop around. Don't give up at the first knock back or hurdle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boganbear Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Before I got an Aussie credit card they swiped my Aussie debit card. However, it does put a claim on your bank account so you need to have at least $2000 in the account, otherwise it will be rejected. Get a UK credit card before you go and if you can pay it off with online banking in the UK you can still do that easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
