Risk Reduction Cover
Risk reduction cover is an optional policy which will reduce the insurance excess from £1250 to £600. It costs £15 per day
Security Deposit
Prior to your hire commencing we will request financial security. We will preauthorise a credit or debit card for the appropriate amount. This is £1250 as standard or £600 if the risk reduction cover is purchased.
Unlike most motorhome hire firms we do not withdraw the funds from your account. This means you are not waiting for the security deposit to be refunded to you 7-28 days after your hire has completed. It will also ensure you are not penalised by any currency fluctuations (non GBP) that occur between the funds being withdrawn and then returned to you. The pre-authorisation reserves the funds for us, should the need arise to access the funds. Please read section 18 in the terms & conditions for full details.
We do not accept American Express or currency cash cards for the security deposit.
