Car Hire through Costco U.K.

Has anybody any experience of booking car hire through Costco U.K. site?

Their prices are very good, but I have read the T & C's several times but just cannot make out if we would need to book any extras or if it is the same terms as usual (i.e. just refuse any extras when you get to the Car Hire counter in MCO)

I have read some car hire threads on here and like them cannot get over the high prices for next year.

I used Costco for car hire a couple of years ago and the insurance was as good as any other company. Must have changed in interim.

OP. What is included on the quote you have found?

Costco is normally first class and I will be amazed if they have changed.

I have compared the t & c's of Costco with another well known Car Hire company and I theink they are the same.
Annoyingly the price yesterday for Intermediate SUV was just over £400 and today it is £650. Not sure if I missed the boat or whether prices fluctuate wildly!

We have booked with Costco (Hertz) for our October trip. For an SUV their price was the best out of all the different car rental options. I also checked their T&C and couldn’t see any less insurance protection. Their cancellation policy was also very good.

We've booked using Costco as well, got in when there was a period of a few days when the prices were a little bit silly. 2 weeks from the middle of August this year, Full Size Car, Pay on pickup ... $470
