Welcome to Car Hire London. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and vehicle rental offerings. By accessing our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals in London are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement provided at the time of booking confirmation or vehicle pickup. This document outlines specific terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your obligations concerning the rental. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will take precedence.
Eligibility Criteria for London
Renting a Vehicle in London
- To rent a vehicle through Car Hire in London, you must be at least 21 years old, although age restrictions may differ based on vehicle type, with extra charges applicable for drivers under 25. A valid full driving licence suitable for the vehicle category is required, along with proof of identity and current address. Additionally, you must provide valid payment details and a security deposit, as well as any other stipulations outlined in the Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Options
- Reservations can be conveniently made via our website, over the phone, or in person at our London office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment and a security deposit are generally required at the time of vehicle pickup. All prices are quoted in British Pounds (£) and include VAT where applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, processed securely through trusted payment providers.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of vehicle collection in London, it is imperative to conduct a thorough inspection and promptly report any pre-existing damage. A vehicle condition report will be created and must be signed by you. The vehicle should be returned in the same condition as it was collected, taking into account normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be assessed, and charges will apply accordingly. Return the vehicle with the same fuel level as when it was collected; otherwise, refueling charges will be incurred. If you anticipate being late for your return, please contact us as soon as possible, as late returns may result in additional fees. You are responsible for any parking fines, traffic violations, or charges that occur during your rental period, along with an administrative fee.
Insurance and Liability in London
- All car rentals in London include basic third-party insurance. For complete information on coverage and excess amounts, please refer to your Rental Agreement. Additional insurance options may be available to limit your financial responsibility. You will be liable for any damage or loss up to the excess amount unless you opt for extra insurance. Damage resulting from negligence or misuse is your responsibility, regardless of insurance coverage.
6. Changes and Cancellations
Cancellation and amendment policies depend on your booking type and the notice given. For precise information, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or failure to show up may incur charges.
