Law of England
If for whatever reason, you decide that you would like to cancel your order, the following scale of cancellation fees will be applied:
Regarding reservations, orders, and bookings, except for account customers, the contract will not be considered as offered. It will continue to be provisional until a fifty percent deposit has been received. Exceptions can be made for customers who already have an established account. The deposit will NOT BE REFUNDED if the reservation is canceled less than 72 hours before the scheduled start time. The remaining balance must be paid in full five business days before the hire date unless otherwise agreed to in writing with us. The rental agreement shall be considered null and void if such payment has not been received.
A fifty percent penalty is incurred for cancellations with less than forty-eight hours notice. If you cancel with less than 24 hours’ notice, you will be responsible for the total cost of the reservation.
Anything except vehicles, including services and products
Suppose your reservation is canceled at least 15 full days before the day on which your rental will begin. In that case, the firm will only charge you the cancellation fees levied by the hotels, ferry operators, restaurants, and theatres, among other establishments.
If the order is canceled less than 14 full days before the date on which the services or items were scheduled to begin, the company will charge the total amount for the services or things that were ordered.
At the time of booking, the information you supply will be used to determine the price that will be quoted for your reservation. Suppose a job runs longer than expected due to passengers not returning to the vehicle on time or other circumstances that are not the company’s fault. In that case, an additional charge of £25.00 per hour, depending on the time and distance, will be charged (the calculation is done in 15-minute increments and is rounded up to the nearest 15-minute unit). In addition, a fee of £5.00 – £10.00 per drop-off will be assessed for any additional drop-offs that have not been pre-booked. The distance determines this fee traveled (in miles) and the time spent.
Even though a reservation has been made, the company has the right to change the price if unanticipated circumstances arise, such as a significant fuel price rise.
The person who rents the vehicle is the one who is liable for the passengers’ behavior while using the company’s vehicles. An extra charge will be incurred for any damage, misuse, soiling, or unacceptable volumes of waste left on the car. In continuation of this point, if a passenger gets sick while riding in one of our vehicles, we reserve the right to assess a cleaning fee of seventy-five pounds.
The number of hours a driver is permitted to work, both daily and weekly, is subject to stringent regulations under British and EEC Law. These regulations govern the length of duty and driving time that a driver must complete. In addition, the amount of time a driver is required to relax in between shifts is outlined in detail. Because we are required to comply with these requirements at all times, this may, on occasion, necessitate making alterations to your itinerary or stopping at various locations along the way.
These rules may impact how your job can be developed to fulfill your criteria. Specific jobs of a longer duration can only be completed if two drivers are available. If an individual is hired for a period that spans multiple da, the company may need to designate a day that is not considered a working day; however, this is soWatfordhing that will, of course, be discussed with you.
The company is not responsible to the hirer for any loss or damage caused by the hiring manager in his trade, business, or profession as a result of the personal injuries or death of any traveler to whom the hirer has an employment agreement or a contract for services, whether such a tragedy or personal injury be caused by carelessness, default, or misconduct of the corporation or their servants or agents or anything else; provided that none of this condition shall prevent the company from being liable for death or personal injury.
