Any car hire offers at the moment?

[Head_in_the_clouds]

We are going from the 29th April for 14 nights and still need to book a car. There are 3 of us but we usually go for an intermediate or an upgrade offer as leg room is needed and we often travel further afield to Sarasota etc and so a compact car isn't ideal. Any advice would be appreciated .

2 best deals around just now seem to be Alamo brit guide offer(10% disc) via Quidco(6.5% cashback)
Or Hertz thru Quidco (10% cashback) and using either of these codes for 10% discount, AA CDP code 504335, Mastercard CDP code 569608

Thanks Wayne, I was hoping you would reply lol as you seem to be the expert . Luckily I'm a member of Quidco and although I'm with the RAC, I think my Dad is with the AA so will see what we can work out .

Not sure where the AA code came thru, I just got a quote using my AA number and it gave me a different CDP code which didn't give me a discount but use this one and like the 1st I posted it gives discount http://www.aaireland.ie/membersclub/offers/offer_details.asp?id=9

Yes I have just tried a dummy quote with that discount code and it works no problems. Plus the Quidco 10% have to say its a really good quote for two weeks so will be talking it over later and hopefully booking it.

Does Quidco still track if you use the AA discount aswell?

 

[wayneg]

No reason for it not to but Quidco cover themselves saying cashback is always at risk using discount codes.
I am very tempted to book with them for August, another I was considering was an SUV with Dollar.co.uk cheaper than their full size 2 dr but its gone up about £25 since last week, now about £150 more than full size with Hertz.

We need a 7 seater minimum, Hertz are showing the ford explorer or similar at a better rate than i can get from anywhere else at the moment, with the pound slowly falling against the dollar i can only see these prices going up. Think im going to bite the bullet and book it
Did you say hertz are off site at mco but due to move back on site soon? have you ever used hertz?

 

[wayneg]

I have never used them but my Brother uses them everywhere he goes. They have always been a bit more expensive which he says is worth paying for the service he has had. Now at this price I am tempted to see if he is right.

I read a few days ago someone rang and were told 1st April they were moving onsite, thats latest I heard.
