* Our car hire excess insurance comparison is updated annually. This table was last updated on the 13th June 2024 and based on quotes obtained directly from each competitor's website for a rental at Alicante airport from 13th June to 20th June 2024 for a mid-sized hatchback (e.g. Seat Leon) ** Based on the maximum 20% loyalty discount available to Cedar Tree club members, in most cases Cedar Tree club loyalty discount will vary between 15% and 20%, see club benefits for more information.
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 Cedar Tree. 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.
Unlimited trips for a year covering up to £10,000 of excess across the policy duration.
Worldwide cover for up to 62 days per rental.
Cover up to two main drivers who can independently travel and hire a car.

Professional assistance from Customer Service. Quick. Easy online follow-up.
Fast and excellent service from susie
My query was answered very quickly by your colleague. I had tried to find an answer to my query in the policy documents. I wanted to confirm that my husband was able to travel independently on the policy we have which is in my name and this was answered very well.
Great service. Mikhala was very knowledgeable and helpful and booking insurance was quick and easy. Thank you.
Suzy was very professional polite and courteous. A wonderful asset to the company. Went through the changes of my policy clearly and efficiently. A wonderful nature and offered empathy and compassion.
Easy to use online service . Plenty of options to get the cover to suit your requirements . Great price .
All went smoothly and cover arranged easily.
I called to discuss various travel insurance options and Adrian was a huge help, he showed lots of patience and spent almost an hour on the phone with me explaining everything and making sure that I get the most suitable annual travel insurance option. Thank you so much Adrian, it's not common to be treated so kindly and patiently!
Fast reply to my query. Really useful app which means everything at my fingertips so I don't need to print off lots of paper!
Very quick and easy to go through 5 minutes and got the insurance I needed 👍
Having had a medical issue since I took out the policy I needed to make some changes. Nicky in customer services was brilliant, made me feel at ease talking about this complex matter and sorted it out for me. At no extra cost too, bonus
