I don't know about a debit card but we were BWI yesterday and there was like 20 of us in line and no cars available. One guy in back was trying to clean cars as they became available, 4 workers at the counter twiddling their thumbs as we all waited. All the other rental counters were closed. No cars. One and 1/2 hours later at 7pm, the Budget counter closed, sent us to the AVIS counter who had told us 30 minutes before that they didn't have cars. Everyone in line LITERALLY started running yto the AVIS counter. We and others said forget it and hired Ubers. We paid $75 for an Uber to Frederick, MD. We had "reservations" at Budget we made 6 months ago. Sure they will give you a reservation, they just won't give you a car.
Yes, but Budget and most other car rental places add a LARGE additional funds hold on the debit card until the final charge is processed after returning the car. The hold on a credit card is much smaller.
