| Comment | I’ve spent a good few years employed by europcar and sixt.
These main companies along with enterprise/Budget/Avis are usually at a premium but if your in any of there loyalty programs then your looked after.
Don’t be tempted by Greenmotion/Easirent and Drivalia which I suspect is Easirent under new colours!
A couple of the big boys offer “budget hires” under different company names which offer good value and at Glasgow airport look for Keddy (they’re owned by europcar)
You may have a insurance waiver in place or built in with your credit card, when at the desk 8/10 times the agent will attempt to sell up there own insurance so be strong, I have seen customers refused the car for not complying some agents are naughty and do you over.
If you book the car minus cover, when you arrive at the desk the agent will most times dangle the “free car upgrade” if you take insurance at the desk.
If you don’t take any cover with the company I recommend filming every part of the car inc tyres prior to driving off otherwise you leave yourself open to lost deposit and horrendous charges for minor damage. |
