recently, there was news that a well-known chain car rental company, Shenzhou renting, opened 24 hours of car rental service in 24 cities across the country. In July 30th, the reporter learned from the Shenzhou car rentals that the company has also opened the service in three stores in Ji'nan, that is, from Monday to Sunday, at any time. But reporters found that in addition to Shenzhou renting, at present, there are not several rental car companies in Ji'nan to launch similar services.
the first day of the first rent of [b] company has a preferential [/b]
a few months ago in a discount car rental company, now the price is updated at any time, the weekend is slightly higher than the usual price, but some large companies, the first rent, with the credit card consumption have different amount of rent concessions.
a hi car rental car rental car rental incentives, credit cards brush some banks can enjoy the first half of the first half of the price concessions, and the bank is directly sent to the first day rent. In order to attract customers, a car rental can also enjoy a 99 yuan discount on the first day, which is more cost-effective than the first half of the first rent. Shenzhou rental car rental from Monday to Thursday, first rent first day half price concessions, but car rental needs to deal with the membership card to consumption, platinum membership card needs to reserve 10 thousand yuan.
reporter noted that Ji'nan local car rental companies have relatively concentrated rental prices, Fukang, Jetta, Poussin, such medium and low-grade cars are more than 120 yuan to 260 yuan in daily rents, and the daily rents of intermediate cars such as Passat and Camry are 260 yuan to 350 yuan, Audi A6L, Buick and Vietnam, etc. The rent is 500 yuan - 600 yuan.
[b] high-grade car deposit 10000 [/b]
according to a reporter survey, the low-grade car deposit is generally 5000 yuan, the high-grade car deposit is basically more than 10 thousand yuan. A car rental deposit from 2000 yuan to 8000 yuan, an average of three thousand or four thousand yuan. In ordinary small businesses, they only need to carry identity cards, driving licenses and cash, but some chain car rental companies are more demanding.
for example, the Shenzhou car rental regulations, in addition to carrying identity card and driving license, the car needs to provide my credit card, the car will freeze part of the credit card after the order is completed, according to the model, the amount of freezing is also different, the minimum 3000 yuan, the maximum of 10 thousand yuan. If a renter doesn't have a credit card, he needs to find a friend and family member with a credit card as a guarantee, while freezing some of the funds in the guarantor's credit card.
but the trouble is that many companies only pay a deposit after the customer has returned the car for a month. In this regard, the car rental company marketing personnel said that it is mainly necessary to check whether customers have violation records and fines during this period.
[b] most small companies do not pay additional insurance premium [/b]
reporter found that in Ji'nan, in addition to the Shenzhou car rental, one hi car rental and other domestic chain car rental lines, most of Ji'nan local cars do not need customers to pay extra vehicle insurance.
Shenzhou car rental and one hi car rental insurance payment and claims standards are very meticulous. According to Mr. Xin of Ji'nan Wen Dong store, the company's insurance is divided into two parts, the basic insurance and the deductible insurance. The basic insurance is to be purchased. The model is different and the basic insurance amount is different. "If you only buy basic insurance, there will be an accident. If you take part in the basic insurance policy, you will be responsible for more than 1500 yuan. The insurance company will bear more than 1500 yuan. If you have purchased a non deductible insurance, there will be an accident, and all the insurance company will pay for the loss. "In addition, if a customer has a traffic accident during the car rental period, the customer needs to pay the maintenance cost. If the car is returned to the car, the car is still over the car rental period or the car is still not repaired. The customer needs to pay the outage fee according to the rental price of the car on the same day."
however, many small and medium-sized car rental companies in Ji'nan say they will not charge extra premium. A number of companies such as car rental, star Shunda car rental, monarch car rental company and other companies make it clear that if there is an accident, all the costs are covered by the insurance company.
