Car Hire With Bad Credit

Credit score can catch even the best of us up, it’s easy to get into bother with mounting debts and bills to pay as you may have seen by the increase in credit score loan advertisements. Everything is just that little bit harder when you have bad credit, even hiring a car. Here at Indigo we pride ourselves in being able to offer services that other car hire companies, can’t or just don’t. One of our main aims has been to provide people with a low credit score with a car, whether that be for hire or leasing.

We have managed to organise a few offers that have worked as “loopholes” so to speak as they aren’t directly tackling the problem, we have found alternative methods to hiring a car that mean it doesn’t matter if you have a bad credit score, these include….

Debit Card Car Hire
The way that companies typically check your credit score is because majority of rental suppliers worldwide only accept the use of credit cards, making it easy to look at your credit score. Our well known offer of debit card car hire however is a great alternative, if you pay with a debit card then you aren’t going to be subject to a credit check which is extremely useful. Your debit card does have to meet certain restrictions that are in place, as long as it does that then we have several worldwide locations that you can hire.

No Credit Check Car Hire
We know of a certain company that does not perform a credit check on their customers even if you use a credit card. We have a good relationship with this supplier so we can often get the car you request, however they are one of the smaller suppliers within the UK so its important that you let us know as far in advance as you can for when you want to hire a car so we can ensure that there is availability at that time for you.

On top of no credit check car hire we also offer this for leasing which almost always comes with a credit check, apart from with us of course.

If you want to hire a car and have a low credit please don’t book online as we can’t ensure that the company you get the car with won’t do a credit check. Contact us before hand by calling +44 (0)113 880 0748 or email us on [email protected].

Having worked in the car rental industry for over 15 years, he really knows his stuff. Rob heads up our marketing department and as a keen traveller, always has a new location to talk about. Particularly if there is a golf course nearby.
