Credit Card Closed/Changed Number after Prepaid Reservation

Hi all,

I made several prepaid reservations using my credit card. However, there was a fraudulent charge to that card, and the issuer closed the card and issued me a new one with a different number.

I have updated my Avis account portfolio with the new card number, but noticed I cannot change the card number associated with the prepaid reservation. Do I need to worry about anything, or things like fuel charge will be automatically charged to my new card number on file?

Thank you

No, the prepaid is considered a voucher. You will need to provide a new card at check-in for any additional costs and for the security authorization amount.

Are you Preferred? When I prepay they (mostly) have my car ready when I arrive, name on the board and deposit charged to the card I booked with.

Yes, I am Prefrerred Plus. The problem is the card I use to book is now closed, but seems like they can just put the deposits on the new card I updated in my profile.
