Never heard of them, But let me draw your attention to this THREAD on another Forum. Contact your credit debit card company and see what they can do, Online fraud. Not everything can be done on the cheap, Its always safer to use a reputable company. Peace of mind and all that.

Just for what its worth

Decode Car Hire gets a mention HERE (scroll down to 07 Oct) and its on the positive side not negative.

ADDENDUM:
I read on a bit and found that Decode is actually a brokerage, not the actual hirer, but seems to return better results than going direct, so worth a try huh?

Other brokers are mentioned, so for those who get bored reading whole words here they are:
1. Carrentals.com
2. Decodecarhire.co.uk
3. Orbitz.com

I got to admit, the idea of brokers for car hire never really occurred to me before.

Hello everyone!

It is nice to see that some people are reading my new blog. I see that some of my text has been quoted, that is great.

About those companies, I believe in all of them. I have used of all them, and have not had any problems. Decode Car Hire is a new company and I think most people have heard of the other two, Orbitz and Carrentals.


happy hiring

I have been checking the backlinks for my blog and I am happy to see this post. I know a lot about car hire companies because i have been in the business for more than 10 years. I have worked for the brokers and the suppliers.

About these companies, "carrentals.co.uk" and "orbitz.com" have been around a while but "Decodecarhire.co.uk" is the new one.

I use these three sites exclusively now and I have never had a problem. Last time i used "decode," my voucher showed a commission rate of only 2%. It was approximately 10 Euros commission for a 7 day rental in Madrid Airport during summer season.
So, the thing is that you can find a lot of bad reviews about broker companies on the internet, but i think that they are the minority. No one really leaves positive feedback, they just think it is normal.

But if Albert had missed the Look Here link, Heck we could have all ended up inverse d or something stranger. I still reckon your momentum in relativity is off a bit due to your Photons not pushing along your neurons anymore. Drink more Choline it will help your ACh neurotransmitters.
