The customer has a grace period of 24 hours to get to the rental office after the pickup time indicated in the booking, after which time, the booking will be cancelled and considered as a 'no show'. This condition is always subject to vehicle availability.

Both pick-ups and drop-offs from 23 h through 7 h will be considered out-of-hours.

The holder of the booking has 40 minutes to get to the office after their flight has landed.

At the Ibiza office, Record go offers pickup outside office hours, from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m., from 1 June to 31 October.

The Ibiza, Barcelona, Madrid, Sevilla and Valencia offices of Record go do not offer this service.

Record go does not offer one-way rentals. The contract holder must return the rented vehicle to the same office as the pickup.  If the contract holder returns the rented vehicle to a office that is different to the pickup, Record go will apply a penalty fee of 200 €. In addition to this fee, the contract holder will also be responsible for paying the daily rental fee (consult the table of fees in section '4) Extras, accessories, charges and coverages’) and the vehicle recovery cost.

Record go does not permit cross-border rentals. By exception, Record go can authorise driving in France, Portugal, Gibraltar and Andorra if the contract holder purchases the 'Cross border' extra. The ‘Cross border’ extra is rented for the whole rental period. It is not possible to rent it for single days.

If the "cross-border" extra is not purchased and the vehicle is driven outside of the territory authorised by Record go, Record go will apply a penalty fee of €200 in addition to the corresponding coverage cancellation and consequences stipulated in point 1 "Obligations of the contract holder in relation to the vehicle".

If the contract holder has not taken out Total Comfort coverage but has purchased the "Cross-border' extra, and has a breakdown or accident while abroad, the contract holder will be responsible for all of the expenses generated, including the vehicle repatriation fees to return the vehicle to the nearest Record go rental office.

Record go will not allow rental agreement extensions.

Some of these modifications are: including additional drivers (maximum three additional drivers per contract), including accessories (such as child seats), modifying your coverage or your extras.

Record go will not allow rental agreement extensions.

The additional accessory will be installed by the contract holder. Our coverage demands it to be this way. In case of any incident resulting from an inadequate installation of the accessories, the company will take no responsibility for the damages caused.

The contract holder may purchase this extra to guarantee that the rented vehicle uses diesel.

The drivers reflected in the contract must have possessed a driving licence for at least one year.

The minimum age for hiring a vehicle with Record go is 19 years —for Groups MBMR, EDMR, CDMR and CGAR— and 21 for the remaining groups.

If the customer has made the booking directly through Record go, Record go allows you to cancel the booking and receive a complete refund of the amount paid up to 48 hours before the start of the rental period. After this 48-hour period, the booking amount will not be refunded in the event of cancellation. Likewise, if the client makes a booking less than 48 hours in advance of pick-up, the amount of the booking will not be refunded in the event of cancellation.

If the customer has made the booking through an intermediary, he/she must contact the intermediary to process any modifications.

You will also be able to cancel your booking from our website. If you are a registered user, access your 'My account' section in the top menu. Otherwise, access your 'My reservations' section, also in the top menu.

When a customer makes a booking with Record Go, he/she reserves a vehicle group that includes different models. It is not possible to reserve a specific model and, therefore, the customer is not able to choose which specific model they receive.

If the client wants to ensure that the rented vehicle uses diesel, they must acquire our diesel vehicle supplement.

At the time of making the booking, the contract holder must choose one of our fuel return policies: «full-full» or «full-empty».

At the time of picking up the vehicle, Record go will hand over the vehicle with a full fuel tank and will charge the contract holder for the amount of the fuel in the tank.

The amount charged depends on the model/make of the vehicle received and on the fuel market price on the date of pickup. The contract holder will pay the price of the fuel used.

At the time of returning the vehicle, Record go checks the level of fuel in the tank and refunds the amount corresponding to the amount of fuel in the tank. 

The measurement unit used for the fuel tank is 1/8 of the vehicle’s total fuel tank. 

At the time of returning the vehicle, the contract holder is required to present the receipt of the airport petrol station as proof of having filled the tank.

If the contract holder does not present the receipt, Record Go will apply a penalty fee of €10. If the contract holder does not return the vehicle with the tank full, Record Go will charge €30 for the refuelling service.

Terms and conditions of the full-full fuel return policy:

In both fuel return policies: At the time of picking up the vehicle, Record Go will hand over the vehicle with a full fuel tank and will charge the contract holder for the amount of the fuel in the tank.

At the time of returning the vehicle, Record go checks the level of fuel in the tank and refunds the amount corresponding to the amount of fuel in the tank. 

The measurement unit used for the fuel tank is 1/8 of the vehicle’s total fuel tank. 

At Record go, we do automatically reimburse the unused amount of fuel.

Nevertheless, it is actually your bank that has to make the reimbursement. Please do take this into account because, sometimes banks can take longer than expected to reimburse money and this is beyond our control.

Some banks charge commissions for reimbursing deposits. These commissions have no connection with Record Go whatsoever. Please be sure to contact your bank for further information.

Should you need your deposit back urgently, we suggest you to please contact your bank so that you they can inform you about the reimbursement timing.

 If the contract holder wishes to submit a fuel receipt, it must be left in a clearly visible place, for example, on the dashboard of the rented vehicle.
