No. That would still be your responsibility.
Yes unless your insurance covers it.
When renting a car it has basic insurance , whereby you pay an excess depending on the company depends on how much your excess will be. You do not pay for the total damage to vehicle. You have the option to take out CDW (Collision Damage Waver) where you pay a little extra again price depends on company. If there is then even a broken mirror , you pay Nothing
They will only pay up to the limit on the policy.
Usually if the car is a total loss, the insurance company will pay you and take the car. They then sell it for parts/salvage. If they let you keep the car, all you have to do is check on the current status of your policy and see if it is listed.
How much you have to pay if you make a claim on your insurance i.e if your car costs £750 to repair and your excess is £250 the insurance company will only pay £500
go to a buy here pay here car lot with a nice down payment you will get a car. BUT ask your trustee for permission.
The excess is what the policy holder has to pay before the insurance company starts to pay. If excess is $100 Damage is $300 the policy holder gets $200.
Regardless of what you paid for the vehicle, in most cases,if your vehicle is deemed a total loss, you will be paid the local market value of your vehicle. If you happened to purchase your vehicle for less than that, you lucked out:)
the excess is how much you pay, anything over that is paid by the insurance company. So for a 1000 pound billyou would pay 500 and they would pay 500
If you read the 'small print' in your agreement you will very likely find you have granted them this authority. - In many cases, you can negotiate with them and get a payment, but keep the remains of the vehicle.
