Tips on how to get a great deal on Debit Card Car Hire at Malaga Airport
In general, it is best practice, particularly when looking to hire a car using a debit card, to book as soon as you can. Although there are occasionally special deals last-minute it would more often be better to book early. When booking a hire car using a debit card this is even more important, this is due to the fact that only a few firms allow you to book with them, this means there will likely be even fewer choices at peak times and the risk of prices rising is then much higher. There is also the potential that they could run out of cars completely.
Usually you will find, when using a debit card to pay, packages available include excess insurance in the price. Have a look through the details and see that whether they cover you fully. If so you might not need to purchase any separate excess insurance.
We recommend researching what your debit card will cost you for use abroad. If its 3% or even lower (some don't charge a transaction fee for use when in a foreign country) ask the car hire company to bill you in local currency instead of sterling. This way the rate you will get charged can be decided by your bank instead of the rental firm, who can add another 6% to your bill when international transactions are carried out. If you do have any queries or questions, do give us a call here at Clarify Car Hire and we will be pleased to assist.
