Credit card companies can bring you to court if you owe outstanding debts. They could end up garnishing your wages or even take your car if they win the case.

How can one rent a car with no credit card?

If you would like to rent a car but do not own a credit card you may be able to pay on a debit card instead. Rental companies understand that not everyone has a credit card and that this does not mean they have bad credit. All companies are different so it is best to check with them if they take payment via a debit card.

I am a doctor- but also go to doctors and take my kids to doctors (very often!). Blockbuster has had my credit card (for more than 10 years), hotels take my credit card, car rental companies take my credit card. ?Do I trust the doctor less than those companies?

Where can you rent a car using a credit card and no cash deposit?

In the United States, most rental car places do not require a cash deposit - unless your history with them is dismal. Rental car companies prefer having a credit card number on file - this allows them to add additional charges to your bill if you don't adhere to the contract you signed. For instance, if the car comes back dinged or dented, the rental car company can charge the repair cost to your credit card number. If you refuse to pay, that's between you and the credit card company - the rental car company will be paid by the credit card company unless you protest the charge as fradulent.


Do car rental agencies accept secured credit cards?

Yes, Car Rental Companies accept Secured Credit Cards. There are two types of cards. "Secured" and "Prepaid". Prepaid cards will be accepted at rental companies (or will be treated like a debit card). SECURE cards on the other hand are not like a credit card. The rental company has no way of knowing rather the card is secured or not.All secured cards say "debit", and have a Visa, Mastercard logo, etc. However, as with any credit card (secured or su-secured), they will take a deposit out on the card that covers the rental fee for your expected term. This will not be "charged", but "held" to your card until you return it, at such a time you can choose to authorize the payment to go through or pay the balance with a debit card, allowing the hold on the credit card to release.
