Your predictive text has got itself confused but I assume you mean Alicante Airport. One company to apparently avoid at all costs is Dickmanns (see the Alicante forum here for horror stories).
From Alicante or Murcia we use Centauro and they have always been very good. We use their premium plan which means no money gets blocked off your card and it comes with full insurance and no excess. At Murcia they charge €70 for a tank of fuel when you collect the car, but if you return the car full you get this credited back the same day. At Alicante Airport last week they charged €85 for the fuel. The downside to the Premium plan is that it is more expensive than their other 2 plans but with those there is a mandatory deposit and and excess though you'll probably encouraged to take their excess insurance even if you have your own. Centauro are quick and efficient with good cars and we'll continue to use them.
If flying into Almeria we use Avis who are 2 minutes off the terminal (there is a shuttle bus) as Centauro, somewhat strangely, don't serve Almeria airport. Avis don't block money off the card and recognise our excess policy with no questions, but this might have something to do with being Avis Preferred members, I'm not entirely sure. Also I don't know how Avis compare to others for prices but suspect they are not the cheapest. They are also at Alicante.
Other people have recommended Al Andalus and Costa Coches, both of whom serve Alicante, Murcia and Almeria airports. I've not used them but they have a good reputation and their prices seem good.
Thanks for your quick response I'll look into all companies you have mentioned
Thanks Jane
