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

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

It was quite easy to buy the travel insurance online. The excess was nil, which not all providers give.

Trusted Customer - May 22, 2025 - Single Trip Travel Insurance

Fortunately I've not needed to claim on my insurance so far, but I've taken out several policies with CoveForSure over the years and have always found the level of cover to be excellent, and at a competitive price. I had cause to ring to the company today with a query and spoke with Nicky, who was really friendly and answered my question very quickly and without issue. Thank you 😊
