I was wondering if anyone had some advice on avoiding the car hire rip off's that you read about in so many of the hire company reviews.
They all seem to be as bad as each other when you look at the various reviews.
One of the main one's is the 'extra insurance scam' where you think you are leaving a deposit for fuel (or so you are told) but, in fact you are signing up for some pretty expensive car insurance.
I am aware that one of the things you should look out for is being asked to sign for 'SCDWK'.
I think the added insult with this one is that most people seem to provide proof of full insurance when they are at the desk.
It can be difficult at times actually purchasing the full insurance from the hire companies as the comparison sites tend to offer you the cover from a third party.
I think it is quite sad that we have come to this. Arriving at your destination should be one of the best parts of your holiday instead of getting stressed with the potential hassle you are going to get collecting you car hire.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated and a free drink will be left behind the bar at the Dog and Duck for any tips that prove to be of help!!
