No Credit Checks In The United States
We had a customer come to us recently worried about hiring a car in the USA, their main concern was that they didn’t have a credit card and if you follow these blogs you may know that this isn’t an issue for us as we can easily arrange offers in several North America locations, the client however had another major worry, would they be credit checked?
When it comes to hiring a car in America many people worry that credit checks will be carried out on them, and if they are travelling from overseas then this is simply not true. Credit checks only take place if you are a resident of the United States and are planning on hiring a car there, so you can rest assured that if you are travelling to the US you will not be credit checked.
Since you may be planning to hire in the US we felt it would be a good time to make you aware of some of the deals we can offer. Obviously you can see we offer debit card car hire and no credit checks but on top of that we also have a low deposit option available in several locations across the country and a full to full policy.
Low Deposits: Deposits can range as high as $3,000 in extreme cases, and for most that is simply not an affordable amount to have blocked on your card for the duration of your holiday. We have managed to arrange deals with some suppliers that are located throughout North America to allow for a low deposit, for more details on this please contact our reservation agents.
Full To Full Fuel Policy: Most suppliers in the US operate a full to empty policy which can end up costing the drivers a lot more money. When you get the car it is full of fuel in which you have to pay for the tank on top of what you have paid for the rental when you arrive, then when you return the car you must return it as close to empty as possible. Many people get caught out with this as they either fill up the engine or are rightfully too worried about returning it too close to empty, either way the rental company benefit from this. A full to full policy means that you don’t have to pay for the fuel you just simply fill the car back up when you return it.
