This is one of the most commonly asked questions we get through the phones, how old do I have to be to hire a car? This is Due to stereotypes and statistics fresh faced drivers aren’t allowed to hire a car as they are seen as an unnecessary risk. Due to this car hire companies usually only allow people over 25 to hire a car as its seen as less of a risk as they are perceived to be more sensible, a debatable point of view. You will also find that if you are under the guideline age of 25 it’s almost impossible to hire a car. (more…)

Debit card car hire is hard to find at the best of times however it’s particularly hard to find in Paris, we have managed to work our way round this in order for it to be made easier for you to arrange car hire with a debit card in Paris.

Being one of the largest tourist destinations in the world its often important to hire a car so we worked tirelessly to find a way of supplying you this option and the great news is that we now offer debit card car rental in two major locations within Paris.

One of these locations is Gare du Nord, the international train station and of course the destination/departure of the Eurostar making it a major station as in fact it is the busiest station in Europe with around 190 million customers per year. The other location is Levallois-Perret a suburb just outside of Paris with a distance of approximately 4 miles, within Levallois-Perret there are four rail stations and two free buses that circulate around town making it easily accessible. Two of the arguably main locations that we unfortunately cant supply Debit card car hire are Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) or also known as Roissy Airport and Orly airport.

Unfortunately there is no way of getting around the Orly airport location unless you get a taxi or something of that kind. However there is hope for the CDG airport, there is a direct rail from CDG airport to Gare du Nord that doesn’t take long at all and is very cost effective with a train available every 15 minutes and only costing €9.25 for an adult fare and would give you the option of Car Hire With A Debit Card In Paris.

These offers are only available with the Minimum Age being 21 (with additional charges) and no charge for over 25s. In order to be accepted it must be a Visa Debit with raised numbers which you can tell by running your fingers over the card. Unfortunately Solo, Electron, Switch, Maestro, Prepaid debit cards, prepaid credit cards and Laser cards are not accepted. However you MUST CALL OR EMAIL to reserve and we will make sure we book your car hire in Paris as we have selected suppliers.

We work with over 500 suppliers so if you were to go ahead and book online there is no guarantee you would get the supplier that is offering this deal and when collecting the car you may be charged the extra fee for your car hire.

Often car hire suppliers won’t let you rent a vehicle for just 24 hours (1 day), especially if it’s on a weekend. Several major car hire companies are only open for half days on Saturdays. They see a 24 hour rental as an inconvenience and due to this often don’t allow you to have that short term hire on weekends. They do this because the car will earn them money all weekend since they aren’t open on Sunday and making you have to return it on Monday giving you the car for two days when you may only of wanted one thus charging you for an additional day.

We recently released a blog on one way car hire announcing that it was now completely free* through our services. Due to this we thought we would inform you on all the best options this gives you as customers so you can use the service to the best of its ability. There is a term in the car hire world called “boomerang car hire”.

This term means basically an alternative way of travelling to and from an airport with minimal cost. You can pick a car up from a location near to your house and drive it to the airport bearing in mind there is no one way fees with indigo that you can give it back to the company at the airport. When you come back from your holiday you do the exact same but in reverse, pick a new rental car up at the airport and drive it home and drop it off still without a one way fee. (more…)
