Deposit and Credit card Information:-
A deposit amount £330 + rental price + optional extras will be held on the main driver’s credit card for the duration of the rental. The deposit will be automatically released if there is no theft or damage during the rental period. In case of theft or damage to the rental vehicle, you will be liable for up to the excess amount and the standard vehicle insurance policy will cover the rest.
If you have purchased insurance from a third party an excess will still be required by Budget.
The main driver must have one of the following valid credit cards under his name: Visa, MasterCard, Diner's Club and American Express. PIN number will be required. No other form of payment will be accepted.
2 different credit cards are required for car groups Van, Full Size, Estate, Luxury and Premium. Visa Debit will be accepted (numbers must be embossed), except for car groups Van, Full Size, Estate and Premium.
In the event that you fail to present a valid credit card or lack of sufficient funds available on the credit card to cover the excess, the car rental agent may refuse to release the vehicle. In these instances, no funds paid will be reimbursed.

Mandatory Documents & Important Information:
The following documents are required to collect the vehicle:

• Passport/ID card.
• A valid credit card in the name of the main driver.
• A full licence
If your driver's licence is not in the Roman alphabet (i.e. if it is in Arabic, Greek, Cyrillic or Chinese) you are required to bring an International Driving Permit and your domestic licence.
For driving licenses from countries not part of the international driving license treaty, an official translation of the license must be presented with the original license. Customers who do not hold a driving licence issued by an EU/EEA country, Switzerland or United Kingdom must also present an International Driving Permit along with their domestic licence.
For rentals in Jersey, if a customer holds a foreign license and have been living in the UK for 2 years or more the customer cannot hire a vehicle.
UK driving license holders must present the photocard and printed endorsement record or the code obtained from DVLA website (www.gov.uk/view-driving-licence) for all named drivers, with details of all endorsements. In case of failure to provide this, customers may be refused rental or charged for a phone call to the DVLA Driving Licence enquiries line. Please note that Northern Ireland issued license holders still need to present the paper counterpart.
• UK residents should also provide 2 forms of proof of address e.g. utility bills / bank statements (maximum 8 weeks old). Please note that just the original documents are accepted. Mobile phone bills or council tax bills will not be accepted. You will have to pass a security validation check by car rental agent. Please note that non UK customers must also provide two forms of proof of address (as explained above) if the Driving Licence doesn't show their address
Age Restrictions and Driving Licence:
Drivers must be 25 years old and have held a full licence for minimum of 1 year with no major endorsements. Small, economy and compact cars may be rented from 23 to 24 years old with a fee (which has been added to the price quoted online and is payable at the counter). No maximum renting age restrictions apply. In some locations, drivers over the age of 70 will require insurance clearance prior to vehicle pickup. Please contact the car rental provider for more details. The maximum age in Jersey is 80 years.
