SimplyExcess – Award-Winning Car Hire Excess Insurance
SimplyExcess have been awarded a ‘Best Buy’ insurer by Which? as well as holding an industry-leading 4.9 Trustpilot rating — the highest within the car hire excess insurance category and significantly ahead of key competitors.
What is car hire excess insurance?
When hiring a car, the rental company will usually include basic insurance within the booking; however, drivers are still often responsible for an excess charge if the vehicle is damaged, stolen or involved in an accident.
This excess can range from around €100 to more than €2,000 depending on the rental provider, vehicle type and destination.
Car hire excess insurance is designed to cover or reimburse these charges, helping travellers avoid unexpected costs while travelling in the UK or abroad.
Many customers only become aware of these charges when collecting the vehicle and are often pressured into purchasing expensive cover directly at the rental desk. Standalone providers such as SimplyExcess offer a significantly more affordable alternative that can be arranged online in just a few minutes before travelling.
SimplyExcess offers flexible annual and short-term policies across both European and Worldwide destinations, making it suitable for everything from occasional holidays to frequent business travel.
The brand has built a strong reputation within the market through competitive pricing, straightforward cover and excellent customer service, reflected in its market-leading 4.9 Trustpilot rating.
