Easy & quick to use
It's certainly cheaper than buying the insurance direct from the rental company. Have not had the need to make a claim yet though.
Straight forward to purchase and these days I think the car rental companies are backing off forcing you to buy their expensive packages.
Good price, deep cover, easy to arrange.
Easy to set up. At a very reasonable cost. Didn't need to claim, that will be the test...

Good cover to have and very reasonable. I’ve only had to claim once and they were very prompt with paying out.

Didn’t need to use it, but was roughly 10x cheaper than if I’d bought similar in resort. Easy to buy online

Thankfully we have not had to ever claim on our policy but I am impressed by the company's customer service
Great to have peace of mind when you hire a car. Lot cheaper than what you are offered from the hire company.

Whenever you hire a van, much like a car, the vehicle will include comprehensive insurance with third party liability and theft. What you won’t get, is a zero excess on damage you cause during the hire period. Usually for a van hire, this excess could be up to £1500 which you’d have to pay regardless of circumstances – our excess policy will reimburse the costs you incur as a result damage you cause.
Every so often, hiring a van is the way to go. Whether you’re moving to a new house, or heading to the recycling centre – our van hire excess insurance will provide you with the protection you need. Our van hire excess will cover you anywhere in the UK and as with our other policies will include cover for tyres, windscreens, under-carriage and chassis. Our policy is perfect for single hire periods - offering you up to 30 days worth of protections, plenty of time for you to get what to need to do done. With our great 10% off introductory offer, our van hire excess insurance is available from as little as £4.86 per day.
We will reimburse the full amount deducted from your card by the car rental company for damage to the car, up to the limit on your policy.
Standard cover limit of up to £10,000 for excess reimbursement (including admin fees) and up to £1,000 for towing costs.
The cover includes damage to the tyres, windscreens, undercarriage, misfuelling and towing costs of the rental vehicle.
Up to 8 additional drivers named on the car rental agreement are covered automatically provided they are between 21-84 years of age and hold a valid driving licence.
