Anyone have experience with them?

I'm looking to rent a car in Dublin for approx. a week and tour around ireland. The cheapest rate, by far, was from a company called 'practical'.

I'd never heard of them, so looked them up and they're a UK only company, that says they're the 4th largest.

Anyone ever use them before, and have an experience to share? Have you heard they're good/bad??

Thanks!

honestly, I have personally never heard of them.

Avis, Herz, Six-T, Eurocar and Enterprise seem fairly big in the UK.

Well, I'm booking the car through travelocity, so I would assume they only partner with reputable and half-way decent car agencies...

Their rate is $108 for the 5 days we want it, and the next option up is from Enterprise for $211, and then Thrifty for $238. Budget, hertz, etc are even more.

Anyone else have exp or heard info on Practical??

Hired a car from them a couple of years back and it took forever getting the deposit back and they dont answer the customer service "hotline"

Otherwise OK
