The insurance has an excess as shown on the website.
 
If you pay cash for the hire of the car you will have to leave a credit card slip covering the
excess deposit.
 
If you pay by credit card we ask you to complete a second credit card slip as security for the amount of the excess. However this is not submitted to the bank unless there is a claim, so in the normal course you will not actually pay a deposit. At the end of the hire the slip is returned to you and you should destroy it without delay.

 We do not ask for a reservation deposit so we will not need your card details over the internet.

The hire includes unlimited mileage within Portugal. If you wish to go to
Spain you will need a bail bond and green card from our insurers. There is a
charge of
Euro 50,-  for the duration of your car hire.

Should you have an accident or the car is broken into or any other event that requires a claim on the insurance you must call the police and get an incident report number. Without this the insurance will not pay the claim and it is your responsibility to obtain the police report number and deliver it to us. If you have any difficulties with this please do not hesitate to call the office and we will be happy to help.

May
we take this opportunity of wishing you a pleasant trip to the Algarve
and thank you for choosing our company.
