Great value for money
The whole process is so easy and quick. I've paid for a 3 day hire half of the cost of one day charged by the rental company.

I don’t think it’s the clearest website .It took me a while to find out that I have world wide cover , but it would be nice to just be covered for Europe and pay less premium . I’m not sure I will visit USA in the next 3 years ?

Hi Dr Swinhoe,
We’re sorry to hear that the website wasn’t as clear as it could be, and we appreciate you taking the time to share this. We understand how important it is to easily find key details like where your cover applies.
Just to clarify, we do offer the option to purchase Europe-only cover, but it sounds like somewhere along the way you opted for Worldwide cover.
Kind regards,
Anna
