It's Easy to Reduce Your
Damage-Related Costs
With Bayswater Car Rental
According to NRMA Insurance, in the financial year 2004/2005, the average damage cost of an accident in New South Wales was $2500. (Maybe that's how the other companies have decided how much you should have to pay in the event of an accident.)
WE DON'T THINK SO. With Bayswater Car Rental, with our Standard Damage Waiver, the accidents you see below only cost our customer $300*.
Our customer
changed lanes and hit a car in the blind spot. Charged $300 ONLY.
With just about any other car hire company, this accident would have cost all of
their normal damage charge of $2750.
Our
customer hit a low wall while parking. Only charged $300.
This customer
reversed into a post while parking. Charged only $300.
OOPS. This customer
accidently pushed the accelerator instead of the brake pedal. We liked the red tape,
but decided to go with a conventional repair. $300.
The customer changed
lanes and was struck by a car she failed to see in the other lane. Charged only
$300.
You may be a very safe driver and not expect something like this to happen to you.
These customers probably felt the same way. But weren’t they happy their little surprise cost them so little in the end?
If you've already been to other car rental company sites, you may find this hard to believe. At almost all of the other companies, your cost for most of the accidents on this page would be around 10 TIMES MORE.
Here's the detail:
With the other companies' normal level of Damage Waiver Protection, most of these accidents would cost you around $2750. Unless, of course you want to pay them as much as $20-$30 PER DAY MORE for them to bring your damage cost down to something reasonable like $300 - $450.
Imagine that - paying even more on top of the rates that are already higher than Bayswater's - for the same level of protection that we give you as standard.
You may not like the sound of being up for the higher risk you have with other companies' normal waiver reduction. But of course you may also be thinking that you're not likely to have an accident. So, let's look at the facts and put them in perspective.

No Matter How Safe You Are
One of the most important factors you need to consider is this. No matter how careful and safe you are, some other careless driver or malicious passer-by may cause damage to your hire car. And you may not be able to do anything to stop it. You may not even know about it until after the fact.
You don't have to pay excessively for someone else's carelessness. With Bayswater you can significantly limit your potential loss at no extra cost.
