Sorry to say I don't think you will find one as they have to reserve the deposit on your credit card, they cannot do that on a debit card.
I had the problem myself and ended up paying significantly more because I forgot to take a credit card with me !!!!
Best of luck but if you have a credit card, then take that or get one before you leave.

Hi flamenca cars dont take a holding deposit. They are dearer but there are no catches and their cars all include full insurance. We have also used AH rentals. They will drop the car off to where you are staying and they meet and greet you at the airport in air con mini bus and take you back to the airport as well. You dont need to pay until you arrive. They have a card machine with them. They have full insurance with no holding deposit either.
My husband always books through Centauro. Yellow mini bus picks you up at airport, takes you to their depot (5 min drive) to collect car and vice versa for return. You book on line and they accept debit cards. Never had a problem and the staff are really friendly.

Flamenca Cars sound incredibly trusting. The majority of rental companies will take a cash deposit in lieu of a credit card, but it is likely to be high!
I endorse the recommendation of Centauro also...first class service.
Hi Wendy.
My partner and I use AH cars based in campasol, this is a fairly small family run company with excellent service, but also reasonably priced.
They will pick you up from the airport and take you to the car which they actually leave at the property you will be staying at.
This is vey useful for people who have never driven abroad on strange roads particularly at night, it certainly takes out the stress factor after a long day travelling.
They are seriously worth looking up and contacting, Jos and his wife both speak English very well so there is no issue with communication
You can pay with a debit or credit card on arrival or when you leave.
If you need anymore info please ask I will be pleased to help.

We have used Flamenca Cars every time we have visited and they gave great service every time
