Car hire without a credit card
Hi, we're off to Hamilton in two weeks, but having trouble with car hire for when we arrive. Have already cancelled my credit card here in the UK, too early as it seems, because I've not found any companies that will accept a booking without a credit card. Anyone else had this problem and found a way around this?
Can't get a friend to book for me as you have to be the cardholder and present card on arrival and cash also is not accepted.

:scared: Why on earth would you cancel your uk credit cards
They got us nicely through our first year here, we just left an amount in our uk bank account to cover.

I'm sure you'll be able to sort it once you arrive at the airport very easily though
