fastcarhire company - anybody ever heard of them?

[wendym]

Hi
Finalising our arrangements for our June 30th trip and I was looking at car hire. We are planning to pick up a car near WDW on July 2nd and drop off on July 16th. Would prefer to pick up at the Dolphin as that saves shuttle buses. As there is only the 2 of us we only need a small car. The cheapest I had found was £226 with USCarhire using Alamo but I found this company http://www.fastcarhire.co.uk/ and they are offering the exact same deal for £213. I have never heard of them - has anybody else?
Many thanks
Wendy

They are cheap aren't they?
Wow, I'd be interested to see what anyone has to say.

Well I'm going to have to look a bit closer at this as a Chrysler 300 touring is going to cost me £588 with TCD/Dollar.
I don't have a clue what a similar car with Alamo is but first impressions tell me that I could be saving up to £200.
A very tasty find indeed.

why don't you just book online directly with Alamo rather than go through another company?
go to www.alamo.com (and if you use the code from Simon's book, you get all the insurance thrown in for free).

Thanks for the replies. I'll have another look at the Alamo site.

Hi

We have used www.airline-network.co.uk for our car hire in the past.
Also give http://www.yescarhire.com/ a try and give www.usrentacar.co.uk, this is who we have booked our car through for our upcoming trip.

Many, many thanks for the replies. Alamo website was the dearest followed by airline network - last year they were the cheapest. Squitty, thank you for the other two sites - I have been hiring cars in Orlando for the last 12 years and I have never seen them! Very impressed.

No problems Wendy...We too have hired alot of cars over the years(13)and we have found some good deals.
I must just say that usrentacar beat our cheapest quote by £5, they were very very helpful.

Looking forward to a great holiday! Only four weeks to wait now!

In danger of spending season ticket money!! (Only joking)
