How I saved $427.72 when a palm tree hit me

I had a little disagreement with a palm tree in our rental car while we were on vacation in Hawaii.  First Day – what a bummer!  Then I remembered that if you rent a car with a Platinum VISA card , they have extra insurance coverage that is automatically included.  The application is conveniently online. I had to FAX in the paperwork from the rental agency and my primary insurance.  Within 2 weeks, I had a check that covered my deductible, and the “loss of use” charges from the rental company, and $100 of their admin fees.

This coverage would work for business travel, too, and every little bit helps the bottom line for any business.

Great catch! That is one of those benefits you forget you have and therefore, end up not using.
