Car Hire Excess Insurance

Cover the excess of your car hire - get a car hire excess insurance quote

We have teamed up with insuremycarhire.com to provide you with a competitively-priced excess policy, to protect you against excess charges when you hire a car.

When you hire a car, your rental agreement will normally include cover for collision damage waiver and theft. However, if the car is damaged or stolen, you will be asked under the rental agreement to pay for a portion of the costs – called the 'excess'. If you take out our excess insurance, you can reduce that excess, ensuring that if there is loss or damage to the hire car, you will be fully reimbursed.

Our car rental excess policies include

  • daily worldwide excess cover for £4.50 a day
  • annual European multi-trip excess cover for £49
  • worldwide multi-trip excess cover for £59

Benefits of our hire care excess policies

  • excess cover on damage and theft portions of the car rental up to £2,500 for any one incident, and up to £3,500 in any one year
  • car rental key replacement cover as standard
  • cover for all named drivers on the rental agreement
  • cover for damage to windows, tyres, undercarriage and roof of the car (often excluded in the rental agreement)

Our care hire excess policies are available for UK and non-UK residents age 21 to 74.
