I am interested to book a rental car at the Airport Venice Marco Polo, what is the security deposit?

Agent

The security deposit on hire vehicles is normally around €300

Client

There is no amount specified in refundable security deposit, can you please confirm?

Agent

I cannot as the information you see is what I see. I can only go by recent bookings....

Client

I believe you.

Agent

One moment ..I have another option to try:-

Agent

There are always ways to reduce deposits, at the desk by taking the EXTRA INSURANCE. At the end of the day most people cannot afford a deposit of more than 300. Do you have a credit card?

Client

Yes.

Agent

OK. If you have a credit card then it is VERY likely to be 300 or less! You may find this Youtube Video about deposit of interest (click link to direct to video):- [link]

Client

Thank you very much

Agent

SIXT have the lowest normally, these are their Terms and Conditions about deposit:-

Please be advised that by renting with Sixt, in addition to the rental charge, a security deposit will be blocked on the payment method as a guarantee, which will be released when the vehicle is returned. The amount of the security deposit depends on the vehicle group of the rented vehicle according to the table below: Small & Economy cars: 300 EUR Midsize: 500 EUR Sports & Luxury: 3000 eur
