Welcome to Car Hire Banbury. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website carhirebanbury.co.uk and our vehicle rental offerings. By utilizing our services, you agree to these terms.
Rental Terms
All vehicle rentals are governed by a comprehensive Rental Agreement that you will receive upon booking confirmation or at the time of vehicle collection. This document outlines important terms, conditions, insurance coverage, fees, and your responsibilities for the rental period. In case of any discrepancies between these Terms and the Rental Agreement, the Rental Agreement will prevail.
Eligibility Criteria
Requirements for Vehicle Rental
- To hire a vehicle from Car Hire in Banbury, you must be at least 21 years old, with age limits varying by vehicle category. A valid full driving licence must be held for the duration specified in the Rental Agreement. You will need to present valid identification and proof of your current address, along with payment information and a security deposit. Additional requirements may be outlined in your Rental Agreement.
Booking and Payment Details
- Reservations can be made via our website, by phone, or directly at our Banbury office. A deposit may be necessary to confirm your booking. Full payment, along with a security deposit, is generally required at the time of vehicle pickup. All prices are listed in British Pounds (£) and include VAT as applicable. We accept major credit and debit cards, ensuring secure transactions through trusted payment processors.
Vehicle Pickup and Drop-off
- At the time of collection in Banbury, it is your responsibility to conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle and report any pre-existing damage without delay. A vehicle condition report will be generated and must be signed by both parties. Upon returning the vehicle, it should be in the same condition as when collected, accounting for normal wear and tear. Any new damage will be evaluated, and appropriate charges will be applied. Please return the vehicle with the same fuel level as at collection; refueling fees will apply for any discrepancies. If you expect to return the vehicle late, contact our office as soon as possible, as additional charges may apply. You will also be liable for any parking fines, traffic violations, or other charges incurred during your rental, in addition to an administrative fee.
Insurance and Liability Coverage
- All rentals come with basic third-party insurance included. You can find comprehensive coverage details and excess amounts in the Rental Agreement. We offer additional insurance options that can help lower your financial liability. It is beneficial to review these options thoroughly. You will be liable for damage or loss up to the excess amount unless you opt for additional coverage. Any damage resulting from negligence, misuse, or violation of these Terms remains your responsibility, regardless of insurance status.
6. Modifications and Cancellations
Cancellation and amendment policies differ based on the type of booking and the notice period provided. For specific details, please consult your booking confirmation or Rental Agreement. Be aware that late cancellations or no-shows could incur additional charges.
Prohibited Activities
Prohibited Uses of Rental Vehicle
- The vehicle must not be used for illegal activities. Activities such as racing, off-roading, or any dangerous driving are prohibited. Transporting hazardous materials is not allowed. Sub-letting or permitting unauthorized drivers is forbidden. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly prohibited. Additionally, the vehicle should not be used for purposes it is not intended for, exceeding passenger or weight limits, or operating outside the agreed geographical boundaries without authorization.
Breach of these terms may lead to rental termination and extra fees.
Liability Limitations
To the fullest extent allowed by English and Welsh law, Car Hire Banbury is not responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of profits, data, or business, resulting from your use of our services. Our total liability for any claims will not exceed the total rental amount paid in the last 12 months. This limitation does not affect liability for death or personal injury due to negligence or for fraudulent actions.
