* Our car hire excess insurance comparison is updated annually. This table was last updated on the 6th August 2025 and based on quotes obtained directly from each competitor's website for a rental at Alicante airport from 10th August to 17th August 2025 for a mid-sized hatchback (e.g. Seat Leon) ** Based on the maximum 20% loyalty discount available to Insure & Escape club members, in most cases Insure & Escape club loyalty discount will vary between 15% and 20%, see club benefits for more information.
While our cover is generally more comprehensive than that of a car hire company, our cover requires you to pay the excess if you damage your rental car and reclaim it from us. Car hire company cover, while significantly more expensive, offers more convenience as if you damage your rental car there is no excess to pay.
For example, if your excess with the car rental company was €750 and you damaged your rental vehicle, you would pay the rental company €750 and they would pay the remaining cost of the claim. You would then claim back the €750 you paid, from Insure & Escape. If you had alternatively taken the car rental company cover your excess would have been reduced to €0 saving you the hassle of paying and reclaiming.
