Easy process and good information
The hire care excess cover was well explained, the proposal was easy to complete and provided competitive prices. So much cheaper than using the hire company’s insurance!

Be careful using this site
Be careful using this site. I filled out the requirements I had of the insurance I needed, but the site gave back quoted on products that didn’t include the cover I needed. I found out after I’d bought the insurance.
What’s the point of having boxes to tick, if the site doesn’t respond to what is entered?

We would love to discuss to this with you for sure.
How it normally works, is that you follow the process online and answer the questions.In doing so, you are then tailoring your policy for your requirements.
I'm going to email you personally now with the hope that we can then catch up on the phone, to discuss this further with you.
We can then talk through your application, your actual requirements and more importantly help you to arrange a policy that meets your specific requirements.
I really do hope that we get the opportunity to speak to you soon.

hassle free way of finding extra cover for car hire.
No difficulty finding and purchasing additional insurance for car hire. Clearly displays costs and cover provided. I have used this site on several occasions but fortunately as yet I have not had to use one of the recommended insurers. However I would not hire a car without first checking them out.

Difference between 3rd Party and SLI and if this is needed in Spain
I didn't know the difference between 3rd party and SLI and if it is needed for Spain. This was explained clearly by Moneymaxim's customer service. Unfortunately, I didn't get his name. He added that with 99% certainty, I do not need 3rd party or SLI insurances since I am travelling in Spain and have booked with AVIS. To be 100% certain, I went to AVIS Spanish website and looked at the Terms and Conditions and it is stated that 3rd party is included.
The comparison list between all the various providers were clearly presented by Moneymaxim.

Simple way to choose Excess Insurance for peace of mind and to avoid the sharks at the rental counter who try to scare you into paying a fortune. A very cost-effective way of getting full cover.

A very cost effective way of getting the right cover, at a fraction of the price as to what you could possibly pay at the Car Hire Desk.
