We do not give credits if client returns the car (early drop-offs) before the time of departure on the voucher after the rental is started.


 

How can you offer cars at such discounted prices?

For two reasons. First, we have teamed up with the biggest car rental in Portugal who have negotiated these favorable rates. Second, we use the internet to do all the transactions which cuts our cost considerably.


 

Accidental Issues

In case of accident where the driver is found at fault, the insurance companies decline any or all responsibility for that driver of all damages caused to the hired vehicle or to third parties whenever it is detected that the driver was driving under the influence of alcohol, narcotics, drugs, toxic products or by insanity of the driver or by a driver not in the contract.

Also if the client uses the car in sportive competitions, races, rallies, challenges, contests, bets, etc… Even if the car’s driver is not under the influence of any of the above items but by any means whatsoever destroys our car by his own fault, we shall not refund any amount for the time left to complete the rental. We will only give another car against a large deposit that may cover eventual damages that may be caused to the new car.

Please note that accidents caused by, in the opinion of the local authorities, dangerous driving, or driving whilst under the effects of alcohol will normally invalidate all drivers insurance, which can be a costly and worrying experience.

Credit card security deposit:

When you rent a car in Portugal a pre-authorization is required for the EXCESS/ DEDUCTIBLE amount of the vehicle (See EXCESS/ DEDUCTIBLE VALUES ). To avoid any responsability on this EXCESS we recomend that you buy the SUPER CDW.

If a pre-authorization is not left then the purchase of aditional insurances are mandatory to reduce the EXCESS to a minimum. If the EXCESS is not reduced to zero a pre-authorization is required for the reduced excess amount.

You will also be asked to leave a security deposit for a full tank of fuel as all cars come FULL of gasoline or diesel depending of the car type .

Even with SUPER CDW and even on  small rentals please make sure your credit card has at least 500 euros credit line
