Hire car for free?

If you have a car accident that isn’t your fault, did you know that you may be entitled to a hire car for at no cost. Many insurance companies will only offer you a courtesy car which is usually a very small car but if you have an upgraded policy then you may be entitled to a like for like car. If you have not chosen this option there are still ways in which you can get a like for like car without having to fork out on renting one.

An accident management company will be able to arrange to get your car repaired and also supply you with a like for like car if you are involved in an accident that isn’t your fault. If the other person has admitted liability or if they are pretty sure that they can prove it was someone else’s fault then they are usually happy to take on the case. Often you will not even have to pay your excess (and then try and claim it back) that you would if you claim through your own insurance company.
