CHECK OUT OUR INSURANCE POLICY

INSURANCE POLICY
Please read our insurance terms carefully and feel free to ask if something is unclear.
Insurance
- Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) limits the Lessee’s liability in the event that the rental vehicle is damaged, subject to the terms and conditions of the rental agreement. Rather than the full damage cost, Lessee is generally only responsible for the first portion, known as an “excess”.
- Third Party Liability Insurance (TPLI) covers Lessee’s liability for the damages caused to a third party in the event of collision.
- Personal Accident Insurance (PAI) is life and health insurance for Lessee and his/her passengers in case of an accident.
- Theft Waiver (TW) covers Lessee’s liability for costs incurred by theft of the rental vehicle, subject to the return of keys. TW does not cover personal belongings.
- Fire Insurance (FI) covers damage caused to the rented car due to fire.
- Road Assistance Service (24/7)
CDW
Collision Damage Waiver technically is not an insurance. Essentially, CDW is Lessor’s refusal to claim losses from Lessee (up to the full value of the vehicle) in case of damage.
Instead of that in case of damage of the rental vehicle Lessee is liable just within the Excess amount which is always clearly stated in the rental agreement.
CDW may not apply when required procedures, such as reporting to the police at the site of the accident, are not made.
CDW do not cover damage of the underside body of the vehicle, tires and rims.
If more than one accident occurs during the rental period, the CDW will apply only to the first accident.
CDW do not cover any damage in case of violations of the conditions for use of the vehicle or the rental agreement.
Excess
An excess is a maximum amount to which Lessee may be liable in the event of damage caused to the rental vehicle during the rental period.
Lessee shall not be liable to pay a CDW excess if he or she is not at fault in the accident according to the police report.
Lessee should present the official accident report from the police about the accident within 24 hours.
CDW excess amount is 200 €. It is not to be paid by Lessee in advance but on the fact of damage.
In some cases, the excess amount may differ depending on some circumstances such as renting an expensive or brand new model vehicle, too young age of a driver, little driving experience.
An excess amount is always clearly stated in the rental agreement.
Breakdown
In case of a breakdown stop the rental vehicle if necessary in the safe place so as not to cause more damage.
Find out your location as exactly as possible. Any information may be useful – names of villages, taverns around, road signs, directions. Ask local people to help you with this.
No stress and panic ! We won’t leave you there. But we need time to make some phone calls, send you help, get to you, find you which sometimes is not easy at all.
Call us. The telephone numbers you can find always in the rental agreement. You can call with the mobile network but also via Viber or Whatsapp if there is any available WiFi connection.
Inform us what have happened, which our vehicle you have (model, number plates) and where you are.
Try to relax and wait for help. Good if you find something to do – enjoy the sun, the sea, the local food or anything else you have near to the place of breakdown. But don’t forget to keep the rental vehicle in sight until help arrives and stay in touch.
Accident
In case of an accident make sure that everybody is OK and safe. If nessesary give aid to injured persons.
Turn on the hazard lights in your car (especially at night), so that no one else is injured and the accident isn’t made any worse.
Call the police (100), if necessary call ambulance (166). Call us. The telephone numbers you can find always in the rental agreement. You can call with the mobile network but also via Viber or Whatsapp if there is any available WiFi connection.
Take notes, pictures of the cars involved, of all license plates involved, as well as of photos of the scene and any damage.
Gather information from other driver(s) and any witnesses – full names, addresses and phone numbers.
Do not admit fault, even if you think it was your fault – let the police and insurance determine that.
Don’t leave the scene without approving things with the police first.
If by any chance the other involved party leaves the accident place, take a photo or write down the plate number.
