• We will charge the payment card or charge card registered to your account for the Services in accordance with our current price list as set out on our website. Your registered card will be pre-authorised and charged once the Vehicle is returned to the Location in accordance with clause 5.1 above and/or to us. Should we be unable to process the payment your booking will be immediately cancelled without any liability to us.The preauthorisation charge is a check on your account at the time of booking to ensure that there are sufficient funds in your account to pay for the trip.

There is no money taken from your account at that time, rather the money is held so that it cannot be spent. Depending on your chosen bank it can take longer for the pre-authorisation charge to be released. Sometimes this appears as a pending payment on your bank account.

• When the trip ends, the held payment is then released, and the final charge is calculated and only then payment is taken from your account. So there is only ever one payment taken from your account at the end of your booking. On the rare occasion, it can take a few minutes or even hours for the held payment to release, but no longer.
• In the event that the Vehicle is not returned at the end of the Reservation Period to the Location or the nearest secure car park space, in accordance with clause 5.1 above , we reserve the right to make an additional charge at rates as set out on our website for every hour that the Vehicle is overdue.

• €50 charge if the vehicle is returned in an unclean condition;
• €200 charge for the use of cigarettes or e-cigarettes in the Vehicle;
• €30 administration charge if the Vehicle is clamped, towed, or impounded, in addition to the charges set out in clause 8 below;
• A €50 charge will be imposed if the Vehicle key is not returned in slot in the glovebox;
• A €25 charge will be imposed if the lights are left on the Vehicle and/or the windows are left open;
• A €25 charge will apply if you do not hit the end booking button at the end of or upon returning the Vehicle;
