Just booked with DFCH

Just booked a 7 seater from DFCH for a total cost of £566.50 that is with four drivers, full to empty, sat nav and top up insurance. It would have cost £805 for same vehicle, one driver, return car full, no sat nav and no top up insurance. This seems a big difference. Should I be worried ? Have always used rentalcars or ba Avis in the past.

Andy is a 3rd party supplier, the same as Virgin, usrentacar, Netflights, Auto Europe etc etc.

He is 'selling' a Hertz or Alamo etc car and the good thing is you get the respective reference number quickly so you know the booking has gone through.

Andy is fine, loads on here have used him. Plus if the car price drops send him an E mail or live chat and he will chnage your booking.

Thank you The other quote was from rentalcars and it just seemed a big difference in price. Yes reference number came through straight away. Another thing ticked of the list 😀

Andy is fine - I've booked Alamo with him twice in the last 6/7 months and, as Tom says, so have dozens of other Dibbers with no problems.

Have you booked Alamo in to either MCO, MIA or TPA? If so make sure you do OLCI and you can skip the counter, go straight to the garage and choose your own car.

Thanks for reply. No we are staying on site for a few days and using The magical express and picking car up from Disney car care centre. Again this is a new experience for us as always picked up from the airport in the past. Think this is why I am feeling a bit anxious about everything falling into place.

The CCC is fine, I have swapped a car out there. Nice staff.

You can't do skip the counter but it is worth doing online check in as it speeds the process up at the desk.

We did exactly the same, on our last holiday (August). We called them the day before the rental, to order the shuttle to pick us up from our hotel. It all went to plan, the staff were lovely and not a bit pushy.

We did the same as you but we picked our car up from a hotel near Disney springs so we just walked over the new bridge at the back of Disney springs took us a couple of mins!
