Thank you for returning John and for your continued custom, really appreciated by us for sure.
Always worth coming to our site around renewal time. Policies change over the course of a year, in regards to their features and price and we continue to add new providers as well, in giving you a really good cross section of the market in regards to the Car Hire Excess Insurance Market.
Many of the Car Hire Excess Insurers on our site, also provide discounted polices (these are the prices as shown on the results page for your quote), and when you then click through from our site to there's and purchase online, you will be guaranteed that price.
We are delighted that we can provide these type of policies for our customers, which are priced really competitively, especially when you compare to what you can pay at the Car Hire Desk !!!
Here's to next time.

All this can be achieved through just one very quote on our site.

A personal experience of a claim for rental car excess
I have been buying yearly car excess policies through Moneymaxim for the last few years. Never had to claim, hence it was difficult to know what kind of service they provide. This year I had to claim for excess as I had an accident in Poland while driving my rental car. On return I claimed and although it took a little while but eventually I got all my money back which was around £ 850. Overall, the service was reasonably good.

Thank you for your 5 Star Review and for using Moneymaxim as you have kindly described.
We have received some very good feedback from our customers in regards to the Car Hire Excess Companies on our site and once you have provided the Excess Insurance Company the information that they require to process your claim, you are then typically refunded within 7 to 10 days.
Really pleased to see as well, that the policy reimbursed you for the full amount and is another great example as to what peace of mind these policies provide, which can be bought via our site for such a competitive price (less than £2 per day for a European Policy, for a UK resident).
If we can you assist you in anyway in the future then please feel free to contact us. We will be here before, during and after you car hire and we will be delighted to assist you in the very best way we can.
Thank you for your continued custom.
Kind regards,
David
