A Warm Welcome to Zero-Excess.com at Faro Airport. Part of the PremierCarJet.com group, we specialise in zero-excess car rental at the airports and resorts where we operate.
Unlike traditional sources of car rental, we require no credit card deposit on arrival, and our rates include all driver insurances with no "hidden" excess value. If you've rented from traditional car rental companies in the past, you've probably been asked to assume as much as £ 1000 of risk against a credit card deposit unless you purchase some fooey "buy-out" insurance which is of course, a way to hide the TRUE PRICE of renting a car!
We beg to differ : at Zero-Excess.com there are no hidden insurance deposits, no tricky extra insurances to purchase on arrival and no hidden extras. On our website, the price you see is the price you pay and if there is an extra charge for something, you'll find this information clearly spelt out so that, before you even choose to book with us, you know exactly what you're paying for.
Hardly rocket science, but it's the formula that has made our parent company CarJet.co.uk one of the success stories of on-line travel, servicing 1 million customers with simple, honest and great value car rental!
