Car
hire excess insurance sales are increasing
Released 21st
May 2009 Summary:
After
acting as introducer for car hire excess insurance for the past five year, jml
Insurance are celebrating that they have now found over 17,200 purchasers for
the product. jml
insurance has been an introductory agent for insurance4car.hire since 2004. Over
the past five years they have now introduced over 17,000 clients to the company
from marketing the products on their insurance services websites like www.jml-insurance.co.uk
and holiday homes vacation sites like www.jmlvillas.com. According
to Philip Suter of jml Property Services "the public are now very much aware that
when the rent a car they usually have to pay additional insurance when they book
or collect it.". “We
have discovered that Insurance4carhire.com daily policies are much cheaper than
those offered by most car hire rental companies and what is more they include
cover for such important items like windows, tyres and undercarriage.” Philip
went on to say" it does however make more sense to take out an annual policy as
this much more cost effective". Insurance4carhire.com
is not the only car hire excess product introduced on the jml sites. Since September
2008 Questor insurance has also been added. The business of introductions is building
well with some 250 introductions to date. In
February 2009, jml Insurance launched www.insurance4carrental.com
that
acts as an introducer in the same style with the Questor and insurance4carhire
products. trip policies. Philip
Suter of jml Insurance said” I have had an annual car hire excess policy from
insurance4carhire.com since I first heard of them. I was caught having to pay
a large excess for alleged damage to a car rental in the south of France in October
2000. Like many other renters I was charged a lot of money for “damage” from a
low cost hire car company.” Philip
went on to say “ from my experience in renting cars, I have found that car hire
company put a lot of pressure on individuals to buy their products that are usually
more expensive. I have heard reports of car hire receptionists telling customers
that the annual or daily policy that they have purchased will not be sufficient
and they must buy their product.” “On
a recent visit to France as I had not purchased the car hire company’s own product
and although I showed them documentation that I had additional cover, I had to
pay by credit card €800 and would not get this back till after the car was returned.
This appears to be very unfair if a client only has a small credit limit. Some
car hire companies just swipe the card’s details and use them if required which
is a much fairer option” Ends....
