Hi,
Can anyone recommend a cheap car rental company in Ireland that doesn't have hidden costs?
Irishcar rentals have quoted me €83.50 online but when I called them and asked what extras I would have to pay when I got there, they tell me :

€31.00 fee for picking car up at airport
A ''vehicle license'' fee of 3.00 per day (apparantly a gvnt road tax charge)
A once-off €3.00 ''environment'' fee
An insurance fee of €11.29 per day
A €60.00 petrol fee (which they will refund if car is full on return)
A €100 they need to put 'on hold' on my card in case the car is damaged.

I don't have €350 on the card, so am looking to find a cheaper alternative.
Thanks
