How are we so much cheaper?

While our cover is generally more comprehensive than that of a car hire company, our cover requires you to pay the excess if you damage your rental car and reclaim it from us. Car hire company cover, while significantly more expensive, offers more convenience as if you damage your rental car there is no excess to pay.

For example, if your excess with the car rental company was €750 and you damaged your rental vehicle, you would pay the rental company €750 and they would pay the remaining cost of the claim. You would then claim back the €750 you paid, from CoverForYou. If you had alternatively taken the car rental company cover your excess would have been reduced to €0 saving you the hassle of paying and reclaiming.

£10,000

Excess Cover

Unlimited trips for a year covering up to £10,000 of excess across the policy duration.

Trusted Customer - November 18, 2025 - Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance

After having let my renewal expire, after using Cover for you for a few previous years I contacted them and spoke with susie , whom added my previous loyal customer discount to my new policy ! Susie was informative, clear and precise in putting together my quote for specifics I wanted , mainly having longer than the general 31 day policy length I opted for ruby cover as I’d always previously had at a very competitive annual cost for multi trip worldwide cover, One very happy customer knowing I have peace of mind for my future travels within the year.. thank you susie for the help in achieving that outcome today great service.
