I would like to rent a mini cooper in Italy, picking up at the Florence airport, make a loop around Lucca, Pisa and Tuscany for about 7 days. A rep with http://powerservicenoleggi.it is offering a reasonable price. To make a reservation, however he are asking for
- PASSPORT
- DRIVING LICENSE
- BILLING ADDRESS
- CREDIT CARD (VISA, MASTERCARD. american express +4%)
Of course we will provide this info when we get there and receive the car, however I am a bit leary about sending this information beforehand just to reserve, given how rampant identity theft is these days.
Does anyone have any experience with this firm and/or is this up-front information requirement "normal?"
Thanks,
