"You only paid one dollar" My friend said this when I talked about my car booking. I felt a bit proud and said yes I booked the car on QEEQ and I used their One-Dollar Freeze. I really only paid 1 dollar at first. At the beginning I was a bit worried. I planned to go to Jersey Island for a few days and I needed a car there. I am still young and my credit card limit is not very high. Before this I used other sites and they always took a big amount from my card at once. I felt a lot of pressure. This time I saw this plan that lets you pay only 1 dollar first and lock the car. The rest of the money would be charged automatically before the rental starts. I thought about it for a while and then I said to myself it is just 1 dollar so I can try it. Then I placed the booking. I chose a Toyota Aygo from Avis. It is a small manual car with four doors and four seats. It was perfect for me. I remember the pick up time was around the afternoon of July 9 in Jersey in the UK. When I booked it my phone only showed a 1 dollar charge. I even checked my credit card bill to make sure they did not take more money like a big deposit or some strange fee. I felt it was a bit unreal in that moment. A few days later I started to worry that I might forget to pay the rest. I checked my email to see if there was any notice. Then I learned I did not need to do anything. The rest would be charged automatically before the rental. Close to my trip I checked my card again. This time I saw the full rental fee was charged. There was no interest and no extra service fee. I really felt so relaxed when I saw that. When I arrived in Jersey I walked to the Avis counter with my luggage. I was still a bit nervous. I was scared they might say something like your payment failed. The staff checked my booking in their system and soon nodded and said I could take the car. I signed the papers and got the key. At that moment I truly felt that paying only 1 dollar at first was real and not just a trick. I did not need to swipe a big amount at the counter. I just followed the normal steps and everything was smooth. On the return day it was around the afternoon of July 14. I parked the car back and the staff walked around the car and said everything was fine. Then I suddenly thought if I had a big amount frozen on my card before this trip my money for daily use these days would be very tight. With this plan there was almost no pressure at the start. When my trip became real then the big amount was charged and I could plan my money better. I could keep some cash and also save some money to eat something nice. This felt very easy for me. Later when I talked with my friends I said that for people like me who just started working and do not have a high credit card limit One-Dollar Freeze is very good. I only paid 1 dollar to lock the car. There was no interest and my card did not feel so heavy. I did not need to freeze a lot of money weeks before the trip. When the trip date came and the payment was done I only needed to show the booking at the counter and take the car. When I think about my next trips if I need to rent a car again I will probably use this way again. For someone like me with a limited budget who still wants to book early this 1 dollar first and auto charge later makes me feel much better than paying a big amount in one time.
