the excess deposit .
 
If you pay by credit card we ask you to complete a card slip as security for the amount of the deposit and 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 for either the excess or the 50
,- Euro . At the end of the hire the slip is returned to you and you should destroy it without delay.

charge of
Euro 50,- .

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.
