ALL PREPAID RESERVATIONS NO REFUND EXCHANGE ONLY:
We do not offer refunds for prepaid reservations. In case the car is not available, an exchange will be offered. The only exception is when a vehicle class is not available.
Notice Regarding Your Financial Responsibility And Damages:
Notice regarding your financial responsibility: You are liable for all damages to the rental vehicle, regardless of the cause or whether it's unknown. This includes repair costs up to the vehicle's fair market value, as well as administrative, towing, storage, and impound fees. You are also responsible for vehicle theft. Full coverage insurance, covering liability and collision, is mandatory. Your personal or travel insurance, as well as the insurance provided by the credit card used for payment, may cover part or all of your financial obligations. It's important to verify with your insurance provider the extent of your coverage, any applicable deductibles, and whether it applies to rental vehicles. Additionally, if you fail to open a claim after a damage has been reported or found, we reserve the right to charge the full amount of the damages to your card immediately. In the event of damages, the security deposit may be temporarily held until the resolution of a claim, and, if the claim is denied, the security deposit may be used to cover the damages.
Supplemental Liability Insurance:
Supplemental liability insurance is mandatory. If you do not have personal full coverage insurance that will cover your rental vehicle, you are required to purchase liability insurance from 24Seven Rent A Car.
