You would have to put a lot on it as they usually pre-authorise a couple of thousand pounds.0

Yes perfectly possible, the retailer normally "reserves" the hire cost + £60 - £70 for a tank of fuel.pault50 wrote:has any one used these cards rather than a full credit card ?
The hire cost is then fully debited at the end of the hire, and the reserve is credited back to the account within 10-14 days:rolleyes: It’s hard enough remembering my opinions - without remembering my reasons for them :rolleyes:0 -

Best one seems to be https://www.mycashplus.co.uk , is FSA regulated and issued by a "U.K" bank.
Lots of other "pre-pay" cards seem to of come and gone, but this one is probably the most "trustworthy":rolleyes: It’s hard enough remembering my opinions - without remembering my reasons for them :rolleyes:0
