How can one person rent a car in the US for so long and not feel broke all the time? This was my first question in my head. I did not want to push my credit card to the limit in one day. When I booked on QEEQ I saw this plan called One-Dollar Freeze. It said I only pay 1 dollar first and they will charge the rest before the pickup time. I thought this felt much easier for me. I was in the UK when I made the booking. There were still some weeks before my pickup in Portland in the middle of April. I kept doing math in my head and checked my budget again and again. I even thought I might need to raise my card limit. Then I remembered I already locked the car with just 1 dollar. I was going to keep the car until around the middle of June so it was a long contract. That made me feel safe because at least the car was mine and I could prepare the rest of the money slowly. One day during self study at school I suddenly thought about the booking again. I opened the order page and checked the details. It said the rest would be charged automatically later. I got a bit nervous and my first fear was that my card might get hit in some random way. Then I read the explanation more carefully and saw that there was no interest for this plan. My mind relaxed a lot at that moment and I felt it was pretty friendly for a student like me. When it was close to the middle of April I started to move money to my credit card bit by bit. I was thinking that it was really lucky I only needed 1 dollar to hold this BMW X5 at the start. With such a long rental up to around mid June I would feel a huge shock if I had to pay everything in one go. Near my pickup time in Portland on April fifteenth at ten in the morning I got the charge notice. The amount was just what I expected and there were no strange extra fees. That was the point when I really felt this payment plan helped me a lot. From booking to pickup I did not stress about payment again. I just remembered I paid 1 dollar first and then they charged the rest at a proper time. A few times I thought about how I might not even book this rental if there was no One-Dollar Freeze because I would be scared of the big bill on my card. Now when I look back this way of paying a little first and the rest later made the whole thing much lighter for me. My credit card did not feel crushed and my mind also stayed much more calm.
