    pretty sure there are companies out there, i flew back to the UK a few months ago with just a debit card and managed to get one.

    1car1 were the people i used, good rates too.
    website is 1car1.co.uk or something like that, give them a call.

    could you not go to the car hire place itself and pay cash, you could do this the week before to show that you are serious about hiring.xx

    The problem is that with a debit card if you anticipated any extra charges eg for damage, you could empty your bank account so that the rental company couldn't charge you directly. With a credit card they can reserve a large amount of credit when you take the car and only release this when you return it in ok condition. You might get away with offering a substantial deposit, but at 23 you may have difficulties.
