What is covered:
If you cannot use the Insured Vehicle because of an Event which happens within 7 days of when you were due to start your trip and Green Flag reasonably believe that the Insured Vehicle cannot be repaired before you leave; or the Insured Vehicle is stolen and not recovered before you leave.
Green Flag will pay up to the amount shown in the Benefits Schedule towards the cost of hiring another vehicle for the purpose of carrying out the planned trip,including any costs for delivery, insurance, and any other compulsory charges which the hire car provider may make. Please remember you must follow the usual conditions of the vehicle hire company selected. These will usually include :
- >the need to have a current full driving licence with you at the time of hire;
- >limits on acceptable endorsements;
- >a credit card deposit ~ e.g. for fuel;
- >drivers to be within the appropriate age limits for hire
- >and to have held a full driving licence for at least 12 months.
If you cannot meet the above requirements quickly,then this will result in a delay in obtaining a hire vehicle and may result in you not being able to obtain a hire vehicle. In some cases you will have to pay for vehicle hire services locally. If this happens, Green Flag will give you a refund (up to cover limits) as long as you provide all necessary paperwork and have received approval from the assistance provider.
