Firstly, many thanks for your kind words, I appreciate it. My Uk licence is up to date address wise. I own the property that it registered to. Not a friends or relatives address. I spoke to Europcar again yesterday and yet again they changed the requirements. So I contacted Enterprise in a town near my property. They stated that I should use my Uk licence, passport and debit card. However, they also said that they would run an electoral register check to confirm that I am registered at the address quoted. I know that I am not registered as we bought the property 2 months before we left for Thailand and rent it to my nephew and his wife. So, another hurdle that I can’t get over. I’ve now given up on the idea of renting a car. Have arranged return taxis from the airport and we’ll use buses and taxis to get around locally for the 8 days back there. Hopefully it’s a long time before I need to return to the UK! Thanks once again

Thank you. I’m on a 12 month extension based on marriage

Thank you. I have specified that I need to pay with a Uk debit card and have been told that this is no problem. But I’m still not sure I can actually arrange this.

I’m intending to pay all amounts due with my Uk debit card which Europcar say is fine.

My licence definitely says ‘Provisional’. It expires in October, and I assume I’ll then get a 5 year replacement.

Hi I am having to fly back to the Uk next week to attend my Mum’s funeral. I need to hire a car at Manchester Airport for 8 days, but I’m having trouble finding out exactly which documents are required. I have my UK passport and full licence, but no proof of address (utility bill etc). Also I will have no credit history so doubt I’d pass the ‘soft credit check’. Europcar are saying I can use my UK passport, airline boarding pass and Thai licence instead and it will negate the need for proof of address and credit check. But my Thai licence is the first two year provisional. Can I use this licence in the UK please? Id be very grateful for any help and advice offered Thank you
