What is an insurance excess?

The excess is the amount you'll only be liable for in case of damage (under Collision Damage Waiver) or theft (under Theft Protection) of the vehicle. Information about the excess will be clearly stated in the price inclusion when you reserve a car on QEEQ.

How can I add an additional driver?

You are advised to make a request upon your arrival at the rental counter. Additional charge per day will incur unless '1 Additional Driver Included' is stipulated on the rental. Please note that the same licence and age requirement applies to the additional driver. The additional driver is supposed to present the required licence document along with the main driver at pickup.

8 - "Everything else was fine, but the rental desk at Nice Airport was a bit frustrating. The lady at the counter was really pushing their own insurance. I told her I’d already bought full coverage, and she kept saying it wasn’t their policy and that I’d have to pay out of pocket first if anything happened. Only after I said I understood did she finally drop it. Then I proactively asked to add two additional drivers, and she told me we could add them when returning the car, that it wasn’t necessary at pickup. I actually believed her at the time, but that’s really irresponsible. If something had happened on the road and the drivers weren’t listed, the insurance wouldn’t have paid out! The more I thought about it, the more it bothered me. The next day I went back to Nice Airport to sort it out. This time a male staff member helped me, and he said of course the drivers should be added and paid for at pickup, otherwise there could be issues with the insurance. He added the drivers for me and, since I’d made a second trip to the branch to fix their mistake, he waived the fee for the second driver."

10 - "The car I booked was the car I got. The staff were friendly, and they let me pick up the car more than an hour earlier without any issue. There were no upselling tactics or unclear charges, and the deposit was refunded promptly. Since I'm not a skilled driver, I chose to purchase the full local insurance. The car was in great condition and easy to drive. One suggestion: avoid returning the car in downtown Paris at all costs—the traffic is absolutely terrible!"
