FAQs

The way US rental companies react to collisions where their renter has an independent policy, such as one from RentalCover.com, differs between each rental company.

If you have a RentalCover.com policy and a US claim, depending on the rental company, extent of damage and other factors, one of these two scenarios will take place (if the claim is approved). We will keep you informed after you submit your claim:

Rất tiếc, luôn mất phí giao dịch khi bạn đi du lịch quốc tế. 

Khi trả một tờ đơn yêu cầu trả tiền bằng cách chuyển tiền, các ngân hàng sẽ tính một khoản tiền tối thiểu là 15 đô la (hay tương đương theo tiền tệ địa phương của bạn). Chúng tôi không chuyển các phí tổn đó cho bạn nếu ngân hàng tính cước phí cho chúng tôi. Nếu ngân hàng tính cước phí đối với bạn, tuy nhiên, chúng tôi lấy làm tiếc là không thể bao thầu phí tổn này.
Có một số cân nhắc khi so sánh tỷ giá hối đoái và một số cách để tính toán chúng. Hãy xem một ví dụ:
  • Mark đến từ Vương Quốc Anh. Anh ta được công ty cho thuê trả 500 Euro cho một tai nạn ở Pháp. Yêu cầu bồi thường 500 Euro của anh ấy đã được RentalCover.com phê duyệt ngay hôm nay.
  • Mark sẽ được thanh toán bằng đồng Bảng Anh.
Nhóm bồi thường RentalCover.com chuyển đơn vị tiền tính phí (đối với Mark là Euro) thành loại tiền thanh toán (đối với Mark là đồng Bảng Anh) dựa trên tỷ giá chuyển đổi có sẵn từ một số nền tảng chuyển tiền. Chúng cao hơn 3-5% so với ngân hàng và cao hơn 4-6% so với văn phòng hối đoái.

All claims must be submitted online - we recommend that you use a computer instead of a mobile phone for easier document uploading. Just enter your Reference Number (this ends with "INS" and can be found on your confirmation email).

After the protection is completed and the damage charge has been settled with the rental company, please submit your online claim and attach any supporting documents. You can click on the button below to get started.

When you first visit RentalCover you will need to activate your account. Simply find the RentalCover confirmation SMS or email in your inbox or spam and click the activation link. If you’re having issues, it may be because the email addresses of some Apple users aren’t shared with RentalCover. Instead, you can simply click on the link provided in the confirmation email you received when you purchased RentalCover Protection and update your email address.

In the event of a breakdown or an accident, it’s important to ensure everyone is safe. Where possible pull over, turn on your hazard lights and get everyone to safety. You can then:

1. If applicable, collect the other parties' details including their:
  • Full name.
  • Address.
  • Licence number. 
  • Vehicle registration number. 
  • Phone number.
  • Email address.
  • Name of their insurance. 
2. Contact your rental company to report the incident. You can find their number on your signed rental agreement. They will instruct you on processes such as vehicle recovery or replacement, roadside assistance and, any charges you may incur depending on your country of travel.

3. Contact the police to report the incident. Keep documentation of this process. During the claim submission process you will be asked to provide details and documents to support your claim, e.g. police reports or written statements. This may also be a requirement by the rental company. To check if it is required by your rental company, please contact them directly.

4. After following the rental company's instructions and when your rental period is over and the final charges have been settled by the rental company, submit a claim with RentalCover.

If you were involved in a multiple-vehicle accident, contact your rental company to see if they intend to refund those charges if you are found to be “not at fault”. Gather documentation explaining your rental company’s process and rules in this case, as you will need it during the claims process. Check your wording in your RentalCover Account for more information on how we handle "not at fault" accidents.
 
Do not arrange your own recovery or repair without the rental company’s knowledge as this may invalidate their rental terms and conditions. Charges for towing and vehicle relocation are covered by RentalCover. We do not cover "out-of-pocket" costs such as accommodation or phone calls.

When you complete your rental
Typically if you are travelling outside of the US, you will be charged an excess/deductible for the damages. Sometimes rental companies will charge you the full excess/deductible upfront and partially refund you later if the repair costs end up less than the excess/deductible amount. This helpful article explains what you can do if you don’t receive your partial refund.

After we’ve received all required documents and information our Claims team can begin processing your claim. Please allow time for our Claims Team to assess all the circumstances and evidence related to your claim. Depending on the country and complexity of the claim, it can take several days. Any updates will communicated via email, so please keep an eye on your inbox.

To help our team assess your claim as quickly as possible we ask all customers to provide the following documents using our online claims form. We need full information to assess your claim, so please attach any documents you think may be relevant to your situation.

Please share the details of your rental company as the primary protection provider to the third party. However, in the US and some other countries, the investigation is between us and the other driver's insurer.

If you make a claim, you may be required to pay an excess (also known as a deductible). An excess is usually an agreed amount or percentage that is subtracted from every covered claim event. For specific details about your RentalCover Protection and your excess amount, please check your RentalCover Protection documents. 

Excesses are usually part of most insurance products and help keep prices lower by having the RentalCover Protection holder absorb or contribute to part of the loss.

If applicable, your excess or deductible will be shown on your certificate.
