Got jedied renting a car cos I had no credit card

2020-07-08 at 2:19 PM UTCSo car was supposed to be a Opel Corsa and was supposed to be €168 for the week. When I get there they tell me cos I have no credit cards, just debit cards (which is deliberate) they have to charge me for full insurance, so that's an extra €14.88 per day.
Sure enough it was in the T&C that I had read, just incredibly hard to spot.
So at least now I have full cover on the car, but I had to pay nearly twice, and I feel a little ripped off. On the bright side there was no deposit.
Gotta get a credit card I guess. -

when i and my friemds were school boys we would pool our money to get a rental cars just to trash it and abuse it to the maximum extent a car can be abused because we couldnt do that to our parents car.
that was among the best amusememt we had. -

cruise lines do something similar but infinitely worse. the first time i was on a cruise and the fuckers asked for my CC info for 'security' reasons i was suspicious…which was warranted…because after the cruise they billed me for all kinds of assorted bullshit that i didnt want. one of the BS charges was $50 in tips for each of the the maid, server, cleaner-person, and port/fuel fees 'in excess of what was billed when the cruise was booked.'
i out-jewed the fuckers when i go on cruises or go to resorts now by using it for the 'security deposit' then after im booked/checked in i call the CC issuer and tell them im on vacation so i need a 'hold' placed on the card so no one else can use it in case i lose it.
thats why i keep a low-balance credit card that i just use for stupid shit like that. car rentals…hotel/resorts…cruises…and ive caught haji gas stations doing the same thing. they place a 'hold' on your card when you run it.
you didnt mention charges for all the bloody mattresses your ass caused after your boyfriemd was done with you.

thats because americans are not known for their competence at designing efficient engines.
