Can I take the credit card of my father to Portugal? - Person Holding Debit Card

I'll travel to Portugal soon, I'm going to rent a car in Lisbon. This rental car agency ask for a credit card to rent a car.

I live in Switzerland. I'm a student and I can't get a credit card in my country because I don't have a monthly salary of 2000 CHF.

So my question is : can I take the credit card of my father to rent the car ?

If no, how can I rent the car ? If yes, can I might have problem at the airport ?



Best Answer

Actually, yes you can!

The only way is if you and your dad share the same name. I have used my Dad's credit card multiple times while using my own ID/DL. There is no way for the rental car company to know the exact details of the bank account. I know from experience, and have done it more than once.
