  • Cash Bookings: No charges will apply if the cancellation is made within 12 hours of the pick-up time.
  • If the cancellation is made 4 hours before departure, an invoice will be sent to the passenger for payment.
  • If the cancellation is made more than 4 hours before departure, no cancellation fee will be applied.
  • For group or special event cancellations made 30 days or more before the reservation date, 75% of the amount will be refunded.
  • Once the cancellation window has passed, the full fare will be charged.
  • If the booking is rescheduled, the fare may be recalculated, and a revised email will be sent to the client.

Refunds

 

  • A full refund of the prepaid reservation will be given only if the journey is cancelled more than 12 hours in advance, subject to a minimum fee of £5.00.
  • For cancellations made less than 4 hours before the journey, only 25% will be refunded.
  • Refunds will be processed electronically and will be repaid to the card used for payment. This process typically takes 3-5 working days.
  • No refunds will be provided if the journey is terminated partway through.
  • No refunds will be given for cancellations made later than 12 hours before the booking.
  • No refunds will be issued if incorrect information is provided, such as wrong date, wrong flight number, etc.

 

Changes at Time of Pick Up or Late Arrival

 

  • If you need to switch to a different car at the time of collection (e.g., a larger car for extra luggage), additional charges will apply, potentially at a higher rate than initially quoted.
  • Waiting time and non-attendance fees will be charged according to the applicable taxi fare regulations.

 

No-Show Fees

If you do not cancel your reservation before the pickup time and fail to show up on the pickup date, a no-show fee will be charged, and no refund will be issued.

Billing

 

  • Additional charges will be itemised on the customer’s billing statement when applicable (e.g., tolls, parking, airport and regulatory fees, fuel surcharge, out-of-area fees, etc.).
  • All published rates are subject to change without notice.
  • Applicable taxes will be charged as required.

 

Exceptional Situations

 

  • In exceptional situations involving the client, Croydon Car reserves the right to cancel bookings. Any charges already paid will be refunded, and no claim for damages or further claims will exist.
  • In the event of an unavoidable situation, such as the vehicle breaking down, Croydon Car reserves the right to use the next best replacement vehicle.
