Due to fluctuating foreign exchange rates and other possible banking charges, the car hire company cannot be held responsible for any difference between the amount paid and the amount refunded.
The Collision Damage Waiver and Theft Protection policies come with an ‘excess’. The excess is the amount that you will need to pay before the policy covers the rest of the cost (for anything the policy covers).
Additional Cover
Additional Cover
At the car hire counter, you may decide to buy additional cover to reduce or remove your excess, or to cover things your Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) doesn't, such as tyres and windscreen.
Please note: If you do, the contract will be between you and the rental company – so you’ll need to contact them if you're dissatisfied with the policy or the cover it provides.
If you’re involved in a 'single vehicle accident' and/or the bodywork is particularly badly damaged, the excess will be higher.
Cover Arrangements
Please make sure you read the terms and conditions of the cover you receive when signing the rental agreement at pick-up, to find out about the policy’s exclusions and limits. Policies normally exclude things such as windscreens, glass, wheels, tyres, undercarriage, interior, personal belongings, towing charges & off-road time – as well as any ‘extra equipment’ hired from the car hire company, such as child seats and GPS devices. Note that your cover will be invalidated by negligence, refuelling errors or breaking the terms of the rental agreement (for example, by driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs).
Administration Charges
Damage to the car will be charged for by the car hire company after it is dropped off - and will incur a Damage Administration fee on top of the amount deducted from the excess.
An Immobilisation Charge is payable in the event of an accident. This is in addition to the amount deducted from the excess and is compulsory. This charge is calculated against the car group and the number of repair days.
If the car is damaged or stolen, the rental company will charge an administration fee. If you pay for damage/theft with a credit card, they'll charge an additional administration fee.
Once the rental is completed, customers need to return to the rental office to ask for a refund of the deposit. The deposit has to be repaid against the same payment card originally used.
Fuel policy
Fuel Policies
Like for like
When you pick your car up, the fuel tank will be full or partly full. You will leave a deposit to cover the cost of the fuel: the counter staff will block this money on your credit card. Just before you return your car, please replace the fuel you've used.
If you return your car with less fuel than it had when you picked it up, the car hire company will keep some or all of your deposit to cover the missing fuel.

Car Hire Company Important Information
Price calculation
Please note that exchange rates can fluctuate - and no-one in the car rental industry can do anything about this. As a result, you might find that charges on your statement aren’t an exact match with the price you were told while booking. The same goes for any refund you may receive.
Price Calculation - Prices are based on the pick-up and drop-off times and dates that you agree before your rental starts. If you pick the car up any later or bring it back any earlier, you will not receive a refund for unused time.
If, at pick-up, you choose to take a different car, there may be an additional charge for this – even if the new car is smaller than the one you had booked.
Penalty fees
An Immobilisation Charge is payable in the event of an accident. This is in addition to the amount deducted from the excess and is compulsory. This charge is calculated against the car group and the number of repair days.
Lost Keys - If you lose your key(s), you will be charged the cost of replacement.
If you've not returned the car after your agreed drop-off time, the insurance will no longer be valid. Plus, you will be charged a penalty fee as well as the cost of another day's rental.
Grace period
You must be at the rental counter by your pick-up time: if you’re late, the car may no longer be available, and you won’t be entitled to a refund. If you think you might be late, it's vital that you contact the rental company at least 30 minutes before your pick-up time, even if it's because of a flight delay and you’ve provided your flight number.
In case of delay, reservations will be held for 59 minutes from the specified reservation time, after which they will be classed as a no-show.
