How to rent a car part 2
Hello everyone!
Let's continue the last topic.
This time, things to consider when choosing different rental options.
Sometimes, you might be able to rent a car for dirt-cheap, but it might actually end up costing you more in the long run.
These very cheap rates usually mean that you get only the barest minimum of insurance, and also pay the highest surcharge.
Basic insurance means that if something not covered by it happens, you might have to pay a lot of money from the surcharge, and that is sure to ruin your holidays.
If you decide to take the higher rate, you won't have any such problems-your insurance is going to cover anything short of damage caused by negligence or driving under influence, and that's both dangerous and illegal, so you should never do that anyway.
Most of the time, regardless of the rate you choose, the fuel policy will be full/full, as in-you have to return the car with it's fuel tank full, just as you took it. If you won't, you will have to pay a penalty. With some of the cheaper rates, you'll also have to leave a deposit for the fuel.
Some of the cheaper rates may include a limit on mileage you may make while driving the car.
Another important thing you should look out for, is what type of road assistance your rental service offers-you most likely won't need it, but if you do, you'll wish that you did have it covered.
Other things that, while not neccessary, are nice to have-some rental services offer an electronic keycard, which allows you to ignore the line to the office-you just log in with your details, sign the documents, and take the keys to the car, with no waiting involved.
Last but not least, the driver doesn't have to be the same person who rents the car, but some rental services have you pay extra for each additional driver authorised to use the car.
I think I've all that is necessary-now you know all you need when renting a car.
Thank you for reading, and see you in the next post!
Bye Bye!
