When you pick up a hire car you’ll need to make sure you have your driving licence and deposit. For best practice, you should always take your booking confirmation. Most companies require a credit card for deposit purposes, so if you don’t own one, be sure to check with the company that they accept other forms of payment such as debit card or cash. Once this initial paperwork is done the agent will (if he hasn’t done so already) bring the car round to the front for you. This is where it pays to be extremely vigilant.

They’ll want a deposit to order the car, NEGOTIATE! Really they just need it as a temporary down payment till you sign the finance agreement, then they’ve got you anyway… So why not push the limits a bit, what’s the worst that can happen? If they hesitate and say they’ll need to run it passed their manager, this is where you need to stick to your guns. The first...

Car rental companies will take the opportunity to earn some extra cash by charging for the smallest of things that we take for granted in our own cars. Be it for a child seat or a SAT NAV.

So instead of leaving it to the last minute to pick a car rental agency, do your research before you travel, to make...
