All related and unrelated costs shall be borne by the Renter in the case of
Breach of Contract.
Some examples of Breach of Contract are:-
|
| |
-
Accident occurring after vehicle is due back
-
Driving under the influence of alcohol
-
Accident due to traffic violation
-
Negligence
-
Unauthorised drivers
In the event of an accident occurring when the vehicle was not driven by the renter, or other authorized driver as nominated on the rental agreement, the renter will be responsible for the full damage to or loss of the vehicle. The renter will also be responsible if the vehicle was driven on unsuitable (gravel) roads, if the renter was driving negligently or if no other car, animal or object was involved.
PLEASE NOTE: Upon collection of the vehicle an estimate amount may be debited as follows:
rental amount + 1 days rental + fuel charge. At the end of the rental the correct rental amount will be invoiced and the balance either debited/credited as applicable.
Wichtig, daher nochmal in deutsch:
Bei der Übernahme des Fahrzeuges durch den Kunden wird die Kreditkarte mit dem ungefähren Betrag belastet, der sich wie folgt zusammen setzt:
Fahrzeug Mietgebühren + einen Tag Miete + eine Tankfüllung Benzin
Am Ende der Mietzeit nach der Wagenrückgabe, wird die korrekte Summe berechnet und eine Rechnung ausgestellt.
Die Differenz wird dann der Kreditkarte wieder gut geschrieben bzw. abgebucht!
