Full Coverage Insurance was Fast & Easy
With my rental car through DiscoverCars.com I got full coverage insurance while renting in Portugal. Unfortunately, I scratched the back of the car. After returning, the repair bill from the rental company seemed very high. But after submitting my claim I got a reply the next day (thank you Onur O.) and all the damages were fully covered. Very please with the speed and coverage of the insurance!

Great Experience and Fast
Recently i have used Discover cars from rental in both Portugal and Italy both rental went extremely fine except for a little scratch that occurred in Italy at return and i was charged for this scratch not speaking the language made it a little worrisome as to the damage although it wasn’t a big amount it was still unnerving. However i reported it to Discover cars immediately and they responded immediately to my concerns. After a few days of getting information Joel was amazing he put me in the right frame of mind and took care of the issue within a few days. Again with in a few days due to the international transfer i contacted Madara and like Joel did a great job of getting me my refund these two customer service people were amazing.

Not booked overseas car hire for 2-3 years. I used to hire 4/5 times a year. The websites have certainly improved.
