Why you don't pay upfront

If you're eligible, we provide the replacement vehicle and seek to recover the reasonable hire costs from the at-fault party or their insurer. You're not chased for payment while the claim is being resolved.

You remain responsible for fuel, tolls, parking and anything set out in your rental agreement. We'll explain everything clearly before you take the car.

No upfront payment

No bond, deposit or daily hire charge to pay on collection.

We manage the insurer

888 handles all correspondence with the at-fault party's insurer.

Hire lasts as long as repairs

You keep the vehicle for the full duration of your car's repair, subject to your agreement.
