Didn't want to spend £45 for excess insurance waiver on my forthcoming car hire. Seems that all car hire companies significantly over charge on this. I found Questor online and got the same cover for... See more

I feel reassured
The fact that you do not badger and your renewal email sounds genuine to have my business and valued as a customer. I have yet to make a claim but feel reassured that if i do it will be painless.
Simple and straightforward process
Simple and straightforward process. Hopefully I'll never need it but easy to get.
Exceptional superfast claims
Exceptional superfast service once you fill out the paperwork. I have one year worldwide excess insurance with them. Totally recommend it for peace of mind for car hire.
Easy to renew with countdown reminders
Easy to renew with countdown reminders. Haven't had to make a claim fortunately so cannot comment on that side of the experience.
Easy Process, Low Cost Alternative
Easy process, cost effective premiums. Significantly cheaper than buying from the hire car company!
Don't waste your money when hiring abroad.
Questor offers reassurance when hiring a car abroad. It takes away the temptation to buy the costly extras in the car hire garages.
Balanced review
I’ve been a customer of this company for the last couple of years and I have to be honest they do what they say they do. They provide insurance to the excess you are liable for in a car rental. They have an online portal that works and everything is streamlined through that portal and I am delighted to see that. However, they make you jump through a lot of hoops it’s not a very straightforward process. Even though you provide everything they request at the outset. And everytime they ask something you are left in an assessment queue and they never provide reassurance and the car rental companies know this that’s why they make increasingly difficult to get paperwork and Questor keeps asking for more paper to confirm the same thing. All this does is delay the payout. I understand that Questor has a duty to fight fraud and double check everything but I have dealt with other companies who provide the same thing and deal with the matter in a few days and that’s it. Do not allow the car rental companies to exploit us because they know your weakness and they know we want to be reassured so a lot of us tend to pay to be fully insured direct with the car rental company just to avoid the hassle of claiming with you. All of this is lost opportunity to you. Create confidence in your services so that people cannot be manipulated to purchase insurance over the counter as exorbitant prices and keep us confident in your services so we keep renewing with you every year
Why would anyone pay more?
It is so annoying when hiring a car to find out how much more expensive the deal you’ve booked online turns out to be when they up-sell excess insurance at the collection desk. It feels like a rip-off. You can get the same over for an awful lot less through Questor.
Their website is slick. You can arrange cover in a few minutes. Why would anyone pay more?
Very easy renewal..

Using this service puts your mind at rest
It is efficient and effective
It is efficient and effective, checking when there is an issue (card needed updating) and paying out super promptly when I had an issue a few years ago. It is superb at what it does
Used the service before
Used the service before, I think it’s good value and very professional.
Able to change my policy for free and provides great service
I like the fact I was able to change my policy from single trip to annual, due to a mistake I made and I got a full refund without being charged because it was before the start date of the policy. The price was great and good value for money and I’m very happy with the services and how the website and policy of the company works. All in all very satisfied 👍🏽
good coverage and good value
