Car booking

When can I choose the “For 24h or longer” offer?

The “For 24h or longer” offer is a good solution not only if you are planning a longer route, e.g. to another city, but also if you need a car for a few hours. You cannot change the selected pricing during the rental. Not sure which offer will be the most favourable for your rental? Use the travelling price calculator available on the websitehere.

I locked the car while sitting inside, but after getting off, the driver’s door is opened.

In this situation, you should rent a car again, all the doors will be opened, and then cancel your booking within 5 minutes, in this way you will be able to close the car correctly and your rental will be free of charge.

I try to terminate the rental, but a GPS, GPRS error appears.

The car must be within range of the mobile and GPS networks. If you are receiving this message, you are probably outside of network coverage. The best option in such a situation is to repark the car. If this does not help, contact the Traficar hotline and follow the consultant’s recommendations.
