Check the agreement and read our credit leaflet for more details. Hire Purchase is different and is not included here - see our credit leaflet. Length of agreement You cannot normally be made to sign up for longer than eighteen months at a time without a chance to end the agreement by giving reasonable notice as specified in your agreement. Points to note 1. Paying by credit card when goods cost 100 or more usually gives you the right to make a direct claim to the card provider if goods are faulty or misdescribed.
Insurance is essential for some agreements.
Check the terms and conditions before you enter into the agreement and get details of the policy. Disputes over damage to goods and return of deposits are always possible. Car Hire agreements, especially for foreign hire can be complex and difficult to understand. Make sure you are properly insured and take advice from a motoring organisation if you belong to one. Get all agreements in writing.
