be aware of some rip off fees when u pick up the car. Check out the DDF threads for the Caribbean about the cheap rental cars there
If there is a rip off, have a look at the score for the options found.
If the score is decent, you should be good.
Some in Spain for instance, have a very low score, due to forcing people to buy insurance telling them the included one isn't good, etc.

Lax, filter convertible, date randomly picked some date in october. There were 4-5 other car types showing besides the convertible.
I did.
The filter doesn't have just a convertible filter, it includes luxury (premium cars)

Also, the filtering doesnt work. For example, filter to convertible and im still seeing every type of car.
Correction: after selecting the to filter information, click on the filter text on top.
(Unlike I specified earlier in the thread)

You should probably hide low (or no) score places by default.

B"H!
Keep in rating well, as I'm sure some people will uninstall within a few weeks, so their feedback will disappear

Downloaded. Didnt review yet. Kind of annoying that it only works when holding the phone sideways. I never hold my phone that way and have screen rotation off.

I only use my phone standing, however for smaller phones it became unusable.
Trying to fix.

It's being done, I'm unsure of the threshold.

I've negotiated and got them to lower the price a bit more.

Weird: there are bookings made and paid, with email addresses that are for sure not real and names that can't be real.
Now I know the rentals are refundable, but still...

Alright, from the feedback received, including own experiences:

If you want (most) insurances included, don't select the USA as country residence. For me Belgium seemed to give favorable rates.

You're referring to liability or LDW? I'd assume most US residents on this forum would rather no LDW included.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

I meant the franchise, meaning the first x dollars that are due when having to pay.
