*The car hire contract may have a maximum duration of 89 days.  After 89 days, a new contract is required (Please see the section Extensions of the Rental Period for more information).

Fuel
Returning rental vehicles is done in seconds as Goldcar delivers its vehicles with a full tank of fuel and clients should return the vehicle with the least amount of fuel possible, as this reduces waiting time at check-out as well as anxiety related to filling up the fuel tank before dropping off the car.

There is no refund on unused fuel. The only exception to this rule is for rental periods of 3 days or less when we refund the client's credit card, upon request of the client at the drop-off office, with the equivalent value of the fuel left in the tank.

The cost of the petrol will be paid when the client picks up the vehicle and the price will depend on the make and model of the vehicle the customer receives. The cost of petrol will be between 40 € and 150€, depending on the make/model of the rental vehicle supplied to the client.

Diesel vehicles are available, normally at an additional charge of 2€ per day, but diesel vehicles can never be confirmed to the client before pick-up. If the client wants to hire a diesel car he should ask for it upon arrival.

Payment Details
We accept credit cards to pay the costs of cars rental, fuel and other local extras. The main driver of the car rental contract must be the cardholder of one of the following valid credit cards: MasterCard and VISA. 

We also accept debit cards and EC-Karte. This condition implies the costumers will have to purchase the additional insurance Super Relax.  

We do not accept payment by American Express, Postepay or Diners. Nor will accept payment in cash. We have always been very flexible in accepting payment in cash, but unfortunately, due to increased thefts of vehicles, we have been forced to take such decision.

Extras and Additional Charges
DIESEL:
Diesel vehicles are available at additional charge. (Please see Fuel section for more information.)

ADDITIONAL DRIVERS:
Portugal: 3, 25€ (taxes excluded) per day with a Maximum charge of 39, 02€ (taxes excluded) per driver.

Customers who are under the age of 25 will be able to drive our vehicles but they will have to pay a surcharge of 4€ per day with a maximum charge of 48€ per rental. The customers who are 25 will not pay this surcharge. We took this decision given the high risk of accidents in customers of this age group. The customers who have held the driving license for less than 4 years will also have to pay a fee of 4€ per day with a maximum charge of 48€ per rental. We will apply only one charge of 4€ per day with a maximum of 48€ if the customer is under the age of 25 and has had a driving license less than 4 years.

GPS is NOT available on one-way rentals. 

SPECIAL CLEANING:
A charge up to 150€ will be applied if the returned car requires special cleaning.

LOSS OF THE VEHICLE DOCUMENTS
Due to the high number of cases in which the vehicles are returned without the documents and given the slow and difficult process of the steps involved to replace these documents, we have made the decision to apply this new fee.
If a customer returns a vehicle and the vehicle documents are not in the car (after checking the car), we will proceed to charge this fee.
The cost of this fee will be 100€ per vehicle.

VEHICLE ABANDONED:

Vehicle Availability
The groups available in this location are: 
In the case a customer would prefer a diesel vehicle, they should communicate this at the moment they pick-up the vehicle (Please see the Fuel section for more information).

All vehicles, with the only exception being special groups, will receive instant confirmation through the automatic booking system they select. 

The collaborator will receive vehicle availability reports (stop-sale reports) on a regular basis.
These reports can also be viewed through the web agency area.

Special Groups
Special Groups: E, DD, FF, G, I, J & K.

Extensions of the Rental Period
As all special vehicles are on request, the hire contract cannot be extended without prior notice and agreement with Goldcar. Normally, vehicles on free-sale can be extended without prior notice, however during stop-sale periods acceptance by Goldcar is required. The collaborator must send any vehicle hire extension to Goldcar to the corresponding office/airport by e-mail or fax and always send a copy of this extension by e-mail to the following e-mail address as well:
extensions@goldcar.es 
The minimum period of time required to send the extensions is 24 hours prior to the end of the current contract.

The customer must always travel in person to the closest Goldcar office in order to make the necessary adjustments to the rental contract. Rental periods cannot be extended by telephone. If for any reason the rental period cannot be extended, then the customer is obligated to return the rental vehicle at the location, time and date agreed upon on the rental contract.

IMPORTANT: For all extensions of contracts we will apply the price according to the original booking date and not according to the date when the extension is made.
The extension cannot be sent as a new booking. It will always be an extension of an existing contract.
                             
The car hire contract may have a maximum duration of 89 days. After 89 days, a new contract is required. An extension of a rental period longer than 89 days is considered a new contract and the rate used for this period will be rate applicable on the day the extension is made.

In the event the vehicle is returned later than the agreed rental drop-off time stated in the contract, the insurance will no longer be valid and the customer will be responsible for paying a 30€ per day late fee. In addition to the corresponding late fees, the customer must also pay the daily rental rate. Customers who abandon Goldcar vehicles at any location other then the location agreed upon on the rental agreement will be responsible for the costs assumed by Goldcar Rental for the transport of the vehicle to the agreed upon drop-off location, as well as the corresponding daily rental charges and 35€ daily penalization fee.

Returning Vehicles Early
If a customer returns the vehicle earlier than the agreed upon drop-off date stated in the rental contract, Goldcar will not refund the customer for any unused days.

Grace Period
There is a 59 minute grace period for the return of all rental vehicles.  In the event the vehicle is returned later than 59 minute past the agreed rental drop-off time stated in the contract, the insurance will no longer be valid and the customer will be responsible for paying a 35€ per day late fee.  In addition to the corresponding late fees, the customer must also pay the daily rental rate.
