No. Con Hola Car Rentals, tutti i costi e gli addebiti della Sua prenotazione nel Regno Unito sono indicati chiaramente al momento della prenotazione e nell'e-mail di conferma, in modo da sapere esattamente quanto paga prima di arrivare al banco.

Inoltre, ogni prenotazione Hola Car Rentals include la garanzia No Extra Charges©. Si tratta di una garanzia sul prezzo (non un'assicurazione) che La protegge nel caso in cui il banco nel Regno Unito Le addebiti qualcosa che non era indicato nella Sua conferma e che non era un optional che ha accettato. In tal caso, Hola Car Rentals lavorerà con il partner di noleggio per rimuovere o rimborsare l'addebito dopo verifica.

Gli unici costi al di fuori di questa garanzia sono:

• Optional scelti al banco (GPS, seggiolini per bambini, carburante prepagato)
• Addebiti basati sull'utilizzo (pedaggi, carburante mancante, multe stradali)

To collect your Alamo rental car in the United Kingdom, you must bring all of the following physical documents. Digital copies are not accepted at the counter.

• A valid, unexpired driver's license (original, physical card)
• A major credit card in the main driver's name with the name printed on the card, for the security deposit hold
• A valid passport or government-issued photo ID
• Proof of return travel, such as a round-trip flight ticket or cruise ticket
• Accommodation information for your stay in the United Kingdom
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher

If your driver's license is not issued in English or by an EU/EEA country, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is strongly recommended. If your license uses a non-Latin alphabet such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic, an IDP is required. The IDP is a translation only and must be carried alongside your original license. Alamo will not accept an IDP on its own.

Name mismatches between your license, passport, and credit card are one of the most common causes of problems at the counter, so verify all documents match before you travel.

It depends on the type of license you hold. When renting from Alamo in the United Kingdom, an IDP is recommended if your license is not in English and not issued by an EU/EEA country. It is required if your license uses a non-Latin alphabet, for example Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script.

The IDP is a translation booklet only. It is not a standalone license and Alamo will not accept it without your original driver's license presented at the same time.

• EU/EEA licenses: generally valid in the United Kingdom without an IDP
• Non-English licenses in Latin script: IDP recommended but not strictly mandatory
• Non-Latin alphabet licenses (Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Cyrillic): IDP required
• Paper licenses from certain territories: an IDP may also be needed

You must obtain your IDP in your home country before traveling. It cannot be issued abroad. Always carry both your original license and the IDP together when driving in the United Kingdom.

The United Kingdom does not use a single electronic transponder network like E-ZPass. Alamo renters encounter several different toll and charge systems depending on where they drive.

• M6 Toll motorway (Birmingham area): cash or card payment at toll booths. Typical car rates range from GBP 6.60 to GBP 11.20 one way, varying by time of day and vehicle type
• Dartford Crossing (Thames): cashless, billed via automatic number plate recognition (ANPR). Costs approximately GBP 2.50 on weekdays peak and GBP 2.00 off-peak per crossing
• London Congestion Charge: GBP 15 per day, weekdays 7am to 10pm and weekends 10am to 6pm, for driving in central London
• Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) and Low Emission Zone (LEZ) in London: daily charges apply to non-compliant vehicles. Most modern Alamo rental vehicles meet compliance standards, but confirm with the counter agent
• Clean Air Zones (CAZ) in cities such as Bath and Birmingham, and Oxford Zero Emission Zone: emissions-based daily fees may apply

For cashless ANPR zones such as the Dartford Crossing and London Congestion Charge, charges are typically billed to the rental account and passed on to you, sometimes with an administrative fee. Always check your final rental invoice carefully after returning your Alamo vehicle in the United Kingdom.

Yes, all bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include Tolls Cashback, which applies to your Alamo rental in the United Kingdom as well.

The benefit reimburses the lesser of the total tolls you paid or up to 5% of your total booking value. For example, if your booking total is US$600, the cap is US$30. If you paid GBP 18 in tolls on the M6 Toll or at the Dartford Crossing, you would receive a refund of that amount up to the cap.

To claim your cashback after returning your Alamo vehicle in the United Kingdom:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of vehicle return
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - Reservation [Your Confirmation Number]
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation, the signed rental agreement, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid
• Include your full name, travel dates, and the last 4 digits of the card used for the booking

Refunds are issued to the original payment method and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted. This benefit does not mean tolls are included in your booking rate. You still pay tolls normally during the rental.

When you pick up your Alamo rental car in the United Kingdom, the counter will place a temporary authorization hold on your credit card. This is not a charge but it reduces your available credit until your bank releases it after the rental ends.

For most standard vehicle categories at Alamo locations in the United Kingdom, the typical hold is approximately GBP 300 to GBP 400. Premium or specialty vehicles may carry a higher hold amount.

• Only a major credit card in the main driver's name with the name printed on the card is accepted for the deposit
• Debit cards, prepaid cards, and virtual cards are not accepted
• The card must have sufficient available credit to cover the hold plus any expected charges
• Even if you prepaid your booking, you must still present a physical credit card at the Alamo counter in the United Kingdom

After you return the vehicle, the hold is released. Your bank or card issuer controls how quickly it appears back on your available credit, which can take up to 15 business days. Bring a backup credit card in your name in case your primary card is declined, and notify your bank of your travel dates to prevent fraud blocks on in-person authorizations.

By law, all rental vehicles in the United Kingdom must carry third-party liability insurance, and this coverage is included in the price of your Alamo rental. This means you are protected against bodily injury and property damage you may cause to other people while driving.

Third-party liability (also referred to as LIS, ALI, or SLI) does not cover damage to the Alamo rental vehicle itself. For that, you need Collision Damage Waiver or Loss Damage Waiver (CDW/LDW).

• Third-party liability: included by law in all United Kingdom rentals
• CDW/LDW: covers damage to or theft of the rental car, subject to any applicable deductible or excess. Check your booking confirmation to confirm whether this is included and what deductible applies
• Personal accident insurance (PAI) and personal effects coverage (PEC): optional add-ons, not automatically included

Review your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation carefully before arriving at the Alamo counter in the United Kingdom. The confirmation will show exactly which protections are included in your rate and whether any deductible applies. If a deductible is listed, that is your out-of-pocket amount per incident unless your plan states zero excess.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Alamo rental in the United Kingdom, but the process must be completed in person at the counter during pickup.

The additional driver must be physically present at the Alamo location and bring their valid driver's license. If their license is not in English or uses a non-Latin alphabet, an IDP is also required. Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement.

• If your Hola Car Rentals booking confirmation states additional driver is included, no extra fee applies for the first additional driver
• If not included, Alamo charges a daily fee at the counter. For Alamo in the United Kingdom, the fee is approximately US$15 per day (billed in local currency at the counter rate)
• Any driver not listed on the rental agreement is not covered by CDW/LDW or liability protections

If you need to add a driver after pickup, you must visit an Alamo branch in the United Kingdom to update the agreement. This cannot typically be done by phone or chat alone. Always verify the additional driver's name appears on your printed rental contract before leaving the counter.

Yes, most bookings made through Hola Car Rentals include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, and this applies to your Alamo rental in the United Kingdom as well.

This benefit is particularly useful if you experience a medical emergency while driving in the United Kingdom, whether on a motorway, in a remote rural area, or in a city. Coverage typically includes:

• Travel insurance with medical coverage for up to 5 passengers
• Legal assistance in the event of an accident
• Compensation for luggage lost by the airline
• Flight cancellation insurance

To use the assistance, contact Terrawind directly at any time: call +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free), WhatsApp +1 208 910 1001, or email [email protected]. Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call.

Important: this coverage does not apply to residents of the United States or Canada. It also does not cover damage to the Alamo rental vehicle (that is CDW/LDW) or third-party liability (that is LIS/SLI). Pre-existing medical conditions are excluded. Always check your booking confirmation for the exact terms and limits that apply to your reservation.

Alamo rentals in the United Kingdom follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy by default. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

• At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the Alamo agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the rental agreement
• Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge before leaving the lot
• Refuel within approximately 10 miles or 15 km of the return location so the gauge does not drop before you arrive
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address
• For after-hours returns at Alamo locations in the United Kingdom, leave the receipt in the key envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge

If you return the vehicle below the recorded starting level, Alamo may charge you for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than the pump price, plus a refueling service fee. Using the wrong fuel type (petrol versus diesel) is not covered by the fuel policy and may generate separate charges. Always confirm the correct fuel type with the agent at the Alamo counter in the United Kingdom before driving away.

Yes, Alamo offers accelerated check-in and self-service kiosk options at its United Kingdom airport locations, which can help you skip the counter queue on arrival.

To use accelerated check-in before your trip:

• Activate it online in advance by entering your driver's license details and contact information
• At the airport, proceed directly to the Alamo kiosk rather than the staffed counter
• Use the touch-screen kiosk to complete your check-in, print your rental agreement, and proceed to the car lot
• Show your license at the exit booth when leaving the lot

If you are arriving at a United Kingdom airport by air, Alamo may ask for your flight details or itinerary at the counter or kiosk. Debit cards are accepted at some United Kingdom Alamo airport locations only if you present a round-trip ticket, but a major credit card remains the most reliable option for the security deposit hold.

For after-hours returns at Alamo locations in the United Kingdom, park in any Alamo bay in the rental car park and drop your keys in the drop-off box on the side of the Alamo cabin. The vehicle will be checked during the next business hours.

Yes, one-way rentals are available through Alamo in the United Kingdom, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on the route, vehicle class, and season.

Alamo operates 43 locations across the United Kingdom, including major airports such as London Heathrow, London Stansted, Birmingham, Aberdeen, Belfast City, Belfast International, and London City, as well as city-center locations in areas like London, Bath, and Ayr. This gives you flexibility for one-way trips between many destinations.

• Same-city airport to downtown: often no drop-off fee
• Different cities within the same region: a drop-off fee typically applies and varies by distance and vehicle class
• Long-distance or cross-country routes: fees are usually higher and some routes may not be available

The drop-off fee for your specific Alamo route in the United Kingdom will be shown during the booking process under the section labeled as payable at destination. It cannot be prepaid. Review your booking confirmation to confirm the exact amount before pickup. If the Alamo counter charges a different fee than what appears on your confirmation, keep all paperwork and contact Hola Car Rentals support after the rental ends.

Cross-border travel in an Alamo rental from the United Kingdom requires prior authorization and is subject to specific restrictions. You cannot simply drive across borders without confirming permission with Alamo at the time of pickup.

• Travel from Great Britain to the Republic of Ireland or Northern Ireland may be permitted but must be confirmed with the Alamo counter in the United Kingdom before departure
• Travel from the United Kingdom to mainland Europe involves crossing by ferry or the Channel Tunnel, which may void your CDW/LDW and liability coverage if not pre-authorized
• If you drive into the Republic of Ireland, toll roads such as the M50 in Dublin use electronic billing via eFlow, which may charge the toll plus an administrative fee to the rental account

Always ask the Alamo agent in the United Kingdom explicitly whether your intended cross-border route is permitted under your rental agreement. Unauthorized border crossings can void your insurance protections and result in significant charges. If cross-border travel is approved, get written confirmation on the rental agreement before leaving the Alamo lot.

Several cities in the United Kingdom operate emissions-based charging zones that apply to all vehicles, including Alamo rental cars. Driving into these zones without meeting the required standards can result in daily charges billed to your rental account.

• London Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ): covers most of Greater London. Non-compliant vehicles are charged GBP 12.50 per day. Most modern Alamo rental vehicles meet ULEZ standards, but confirm compliance with the counter agent at pickup
• London Low Emission Zone (LEZ): applies primarily to larger vehicles such as vans and people carriers
• London Congestion Charge: GBP 15 per day for driving in central London, weekdays 7am to 10pm and weekends 10am to 6pm. This is separate from ULEZ and applies regardless of emissions
• Clean Air Zones (CAZ) in Bath and Birmingham: daily charges apply to non-compliant vehicles entering the zone
• Oxford Zero Emission Zone: applies within a defined area of Oxford city center

If your Alamo rental in the United Kingdom is charged for entering one of these zones, the fee is typically billed through automatic number plate recognition and passed on to you via the rental account, sometimes with an administrative processing fee. Check your final Alamo invoice carefully after returning the vehicle in the United Kingdom.
