Question |
Answer |
What is an Excess? |
An excess is an out-of-pocket payment that your insurer will ask you to pay towards any claim that you make. It is the amount you contribute towards the cost of a claim, with the insurer covering the remaining amount. |
How does it work? | In most countries, when you rent a car from a licensed car rental agency, you are required to purchase an insurance that provides comprehensive cover for the rental car. This comprehensive cover normally includes damage, theft and third party coverage. There are various types of car rental insurance available. Depending on the type of car rental insurance purchased, there is a limit on how much you will have to pay for losses incurred to the rental car. This limit is termed as an ‘Excess’. You will only bear the excess and the insurance company (for the rental car) will bear the balance of the repair cost. Example: You are on holiday in California and accidentally clip the edge of the road, puncturing a tyre and damaging the paintwork. The damage costs USD1,100 to repair. The excess under your insurance policy purchased for the rental car is USD500. You will have to pay to the car rental agency USD500 and the insurer (for the rental car) will pay the remaining USD600. |
How does Car Rental Excess Charges Benefit kick in? | Subject to policy terms and conditions, this benefit triggers upon which you become legally liable to pay any excess in respect of loss or damage caused by an accident to the rental car during your trip provided that your car rental agreement has comprehensive cover for the rental car. |
How do I make a claim? | Fill up the Travel Claim Form (Section K: Car Rental Excess Charges & Return Costs) and attach the payment receipt provided by the car rental company. *Subject to policy terms & conditions. |
