Choose fully comprehensive insurance without excess when hiring a car

As insurance, we recommend that you take out fully comprehensive insurance without excess. In the event of damage, you will be completely insured. In the case of fully comprehensive insurance without excess, no insurance fee is incurred when booking. If you cause a scratch, the hireal company will deduct the cost of repairing the damage from your deposit. You can contact your broker after that and submit the damage invoice and damage report to the car hire company in due time. You will find the deadlines in the hireal conditions. The agent will then reimburse you the fee paid. In the case of fully comprehensive insurance without excess, there are no further costs for you. Use our comparison portal to find favourable offers for the required insurances.

Car hireal Switzerland: What do I need to consider when making a deposit?

When you pick up your hireal car at the car hire company, you have to pay the deposit at the same time. It is usually debited directly from your credit card, but can also be paid in cash. The amount of the deposit varies and depends on factors such as the landlord and the vehicle. Compare all offers on Driveboo.com to hire your dream car at a good price on our portal. Brokers who offer a hireal car without a deposit should be avoided. These are usually dubious offers, as the deposit serves the landlord as security. If you return the car in time and without damage to the hireal company, the entire deposit will be refunded within a few days.
