FAQ
What does "no excess" actually cover in Fuengirola?
It depends on the offer: full coverage usually includes bodywork, and the best ones add tyres, glass and underbody. Read each offer’s terms when comparing.
Will a deposit still be blocked?
With true zero excess the deposit is symbolic or none. If the offer shows a high deposit, the coverage works by reimbursement: you pay, then get refunded.
