  • I do not have a credit card
  • I'm under 25 but older than 21
  • I do not have a credit history

I'm traveling to LGB airport and want to rent a car. They say there's no way to do that without a major credit card or debit card + credit history (Hertz, Enterprise, Avis, etc.)

I have my insurance and I can make a safe deposit if required. I also have friends who are not traveling with me but have a credit card and are willing to help, but Hertz said you cannot do that.

Is there any way to rent a car in my situation?
I'm a little scared about renting a car on craigslist.

Some car rental companies allow renting with debit cards, provided you have a return ticket and sufficient amount on your bank account for a deposit. I know for a fact that major car rental companies in California (Hertz, National) allow this.

Not having a credit card and being under 25 may be a bad combination though....

oh whatever
