Works for me, go on the uk site, click special offers & the 30% off option appears, no need to enter the code, hope this works!

 

[Portugal1000]

Great, thank you it works. I was just trying to enter the code rather than going to special offers. Got a great rate £419 for a 4x4 for 22 nights from 22nd July plus 10% Quidco hopefully. They have quite a good cancellation or change policy so that gave me confidence also. I usually rent through usrentacar but they wanted £470 and no cash back so am very happy.
Thanks again.

That is how we booked it. Have got a 7 seater mini van for 3 weeks next July for £405.

Just make sure you compare with another site (such as USRentacar) to make sure it definitely is a saving. I have just compared a week's hire next November and there is very little (not even a couple of ££) between Hertz and USRentacar and, for some vehicle types, USRentacar is cheaper.

Are your dates in the 30% sale Joh?
I checked our dates for Easter this morning when Karen sent me a PM, £205 less 10% Quidco = £184.50. USrentacar for exactly the same dates, same car £294.00

Just hope prices don't increase before I get home.

I have checked for our rough dates in Sept 11 & got a great price for an SUV.

Does anyone know how much they charge for an extra driver & what their canx/change policy is as although we have dates in mind & 11 days out of 14/5 booked we haven't so booked our flights yet!!!

Thanks, just booked for January, saved me £60

Just hope prices don't increase before I get home.

The dates are included, however I don't tend to factor in cashback when i am comparing prices since it's not a given. Although I priced up the one-day rental we need at the beginning of our holiday and Hertz was over £20 cheaper for the one day and that rate included a tank of fuel so I have done a 1-day booking to get us from the airport to the port on our arrival day.

I do prefer Hertz's refuelling options to those with Dollar or Budget (where you either buy the Gold cover which includes a tank of fuel or you pre-pay a tank at extortionate rates), so that may influence me in their direction for the last week anyway. We won't be booking now though as the holiday isn't till November and there are no guarantees, given DH's job sitatuion, so wouldn't want to pre-pay a significant amount at the moment.

A great deal for those of you who are saving money though - hope the prices remain till you get home Wayne.

Thanks Wayne


It was all looking soo good until I read you can't change your arrival airport :-( without cancelling & rebooking.

As we will just book into wherever is cheapest it's a bit of no go at the moment.

I got my Quidco tracking confirmation about 20 minutes after I booked which I am always relieved about. £41.60 so I am really pleased. Can't believe my whole holiday next year is nearly already paid. Just wish it wasn't nearly 9 months away.

Has anyone used Hertz in the past?

I'm interested in the prices they are currently offering but unsure on how easy they are to use once arriving at MCO?

Do you need to queue at a desk in MCO and then collect car from garage outside, can you do on line check in alike to Dollar/Alamo and simply by pass the airport desks and proceed to the garage?

We used them this summer, picking up at Miami and dropping off at Tampa. I joined the Gold club (found a link online for free membership) and we got a free extra driver. Walked straight to car having seen my name on the board in the garage, keys were in and away we went, very good and have booked again for this summer picking up at Orlando. I paid on arrival for fuel, think it was about $73 for a 7 seater minivan and thought the toll pass was very convenient as well, thumbs up from me

Hertz are probably the best car rental company to rent from, taking into account quality of both service and cars but they are rarely the cheapest, since I started renting cars in 1993 to today this is only the 2nd time I have known them be the cheapest for me, the 1st time was a price error.

Is Hertz right at MCO, or do you have to take a shuttle bus to get there?
