You might want to start by emailing the various sponsors in this forum, as listed under the banner heading above. Most of us regulars have our favorites and I won’t start with that - I’m sure someone else will - but another good idea is to scroll through the posts here for the names of some good companies to do business with.
Edited to add - I didn’t want to start the popularity thing since I’ve so often railed against it, but since others already did, we also use LESLEY Bruce, the owner of Kenny’s Car Rental company and find him to be awesome to do business with. He’s a gentleman, a man of his word and he stands behind his rental with good service you can count on. And to me, that’s the most important aspect of the rental deal, even moreso than price.

i would recheck that my ae platinum policy says What is Covered If Damage to or Theft of a Rental Vehicle occurs while coverage is in effect, the Plan will pay a benefit up to a maximum of $75,000 per Rental Agreement for: no where does it say they will cover liability if a person is injured in the other car also FYI AE offers two products the standard which come with the card which is a secondary payor after your car insurance and a premium product which you must register for for a one time fee of 19.95 per rental period covers you up to a 30 day rental and is primary but still dos not cover liability As far as liability I never got a exact answer hertz told me unlimited both sides but also says 50000 on dutch (not sure iwhat s the a maximum amount of damages are on dutch side in the states if somebody loses limb or paralyzed that would be totaly inadequate ) kenny says they have 50000 included french law states that rentals must have unlimited Insurance but cars may come with a deductible

I think talking about what we pay for car rental is somewhat futile. It can depend upon the time of year. It certainly depends on the size of car. And longevity as a customer usually results in additional discounts that a first-time renter would not experience. 100% correct. You may find internet rates listed online but a phone call or an email may produce better rates.

No problem but I would re-check on the liability coverage on the credit card.
