• Before renting a car, make sure you know what is included in the final price and what is not.

• Often the quoted price would only be the basic price and does not include any extras.

• Always check the fuel policy to avoid being charged additional expensive charges.

• Verify with the car rental company for how long the deposit paid will be held.

• Make sure you understand properly what type of insurance policy you are covered with and the excess to be paid in the event of an accident.

• Keep in mind that the car rental company may charge administrative charges for processing traffic conventions.

• Verify as soon as possible the credit card statement for any unauthorised transactions or unexpected charges.
