New Optional Car Hire Excess Insurance Option

New Optional Car Hire Excess Insurance Option

This Insurance will give you the benefit of avoiding ALL Excess Charges - the charge applicable to your booking will be displayed when you request a quote or our online customer service staff will be able to advise you. Most car rental companies charge an Excess, therefore if you have a claim - you pay the first GBP £500 or whatever excess is quoted on your rental conditions. The Excess Insurance you can purchase on line gives you complete peace of mind at just a small extra charge per day.

Please always check the terms of your insurance as for example the insurance would become invalid in cases of negligent driving i.e. drink/driving offences etc. If you have a major endorsement, i.e. Offence codes DR10 to DR30 which stay on a driving licence for eleven years we will not be able to let you have a hire car. ,
