Hi Mary, Thanks for reaching out! Whether or not the deposit is held in your account or deposited entirely depends on the provider and the rental itself, so unfortunately there is not a clear cut answer we can give. We would recommend reaching out to the car rental provider and enquiring directly if you're trying to avoid international transaction fees. Alternatively, you can give us a call to explore your options of car rental providers that do not require a security deposit. If you would like any more help, please let us know! Kind regards, Katherine Zest Car Rental]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In reply to <a href="https://www.zestcarrental.com/blog/car-hire-security-deposits-explained/#comment-1502480">mary</a>.</p> <p>Hi Mary,<br /> Thanks for reaching out!<br /> Whether or not the deposit is held in your account or deposited entirely depends on the provider and the rental itself, so unfortunately there is not a clear cut answer we can give.
