Super fast claim and approval. Best rental experience
Had rented a car with discover card.com and had purchased full protection insurance. I had a small damage on the car for which I filed a claim for $283 which was the amount that the rental company charged me. I got an approval email within a couple of hours. Alexander was the customer satisfaction specialist who helped me resolve my issue. Awesome people!

Excellent communication and customer service
The communication with Yara from the customer service team of DiscoverCars was super easy. Both by phone and by email, the company was very reachable and responsive. Unfortunately, on our side we had to abort our travel and cancel the car rent in the very last moment, due to sickness. DiscoverCars was again very understanding and even offered to pay back the first tranche paid upfront. Based on this experience I can only highly recommend the company . Hopefully next time will be more successful on my side. Thank you, DiscoverCars :)
