I had to make a claim under the Insurance Policy I purchased from DiscoverCars. There policy was 50% cheaper than the Policy that the Hire car company were selling and in the event of a EUR 726 claim, the process was fast and efficient. Would use recommend DiscoverCars again but not DelPaso Cars in Málaga.

I had an issue with the local agent (Abby’s Car) during the car pick up and contacted DiscoverCars customer support. They quickly responded and contacted the local agent directly. The issue was resolved a few minutes later. Great service
