Hi Lesala2015, my gripe with Doyouspain and Dickmanns, is that apart from Dickmanns actually taking the deposit and holding on to it for several weeks or more, DoyouSpain knew that they were doing this, but still refer customers to them. I appreciate that DoyouSpain use other companies and people have not had problems with them, but I think it is bang out of order for a company to refer its clients to a dodgy car rental company, especially when there are hundreds possibly thousands of complaints of this nature against them. Check out talk Quesada forum, it gives links on this topic, and it is not just the brits they are doing it to, there is also a topic on a paper called the olive branch that also refers to these dealings. this is the first company in 15 years of hiring cars in Spain that has actually taken the holding deposit. Just to let everybody know, I received my deposit back on Friday 10 February, less £75, when I called them I was informed that this was Spanish tax. As I hadn't actually purchased anything, I cant see why I am paying tax, but I cant be arsed fighting them over this as it has probably cost me more in telephone calls to date.
