Car rental rip-offs and how to stay away from it

If Jordan exploration and discovery is top of your priority this holiday season, you are exposed for car rental rip-offs than any time before. That is if you are intending to rent a car in Jordan. Planning is the best way of avoiding rip-offs on car rentals and we highlight a few rip-offs and how to avoid them.

1. Excess rental fees: Most Jordan car rental firms use insurance as an excuse of charging high fees yet, the amount of money you could pay in case of an accident is lesser than the amount paid for the car rental insurance cover. You can reduce the charge by buying an excess waiver policy. You can buy this policy while at home before traveling and it turns out to be cheaper.

1. The ‘full empty’ fuel policy: Some Jordan car rental companies ask you to pay for a full fuel tank upfront and you are free to return the car with an empty tank. However, many of them inflate the prices for the petrol. Second, you might not exhaust the fuel during your trip if you intend to rent a car in Jordan. If the company does not offer a refund for unused fuel, be sure to stay out of the deal if the trip is short and second, do your research on fuel prices. Some Jordan car rental companies place a service charge on refund on unused fuel. The best car rental companies to work with are those who allow you to return the same amount of fuel the car had when you picked it up.
2. The ‘upgrade’ option: Some companies that can rent you a car in Jordan offer lucrative deals for upgrading on the rental car and will inform you of the same when you go to pick up the rental car at the office. Don't fall for deals that charge excessive fees for an upgrade, which is likely to be if you did not do some research on it. If they are offering a refund for a lower category car and feel it appropriate to save, make sure to sign the contract before driving off.
3. Paying for items you could bring with you: Whether it is sat-navs or baby seats, consider bringing additional items to use together with your car instead of relying on the rental company to provide, because that will turn out as expensive.

Even a large number of tourists of a group can be easily accommodated in these spacious rental cars, facilitating their sightseeing programs in Jordan.
