The Rentee, by signing the General Terms and Conditions and the Price List (which form an integral part of the rental agreement) as well as by providing his/her payment card data, agrees to complete the pre-authorisation in the event of the above-mentioned circumstances. The lack of the Rentee's signature under the car handover protocol does not cause the Renter to lose the right to collect the designated amount included in the Price List from the then collected pre-authorisation. The above also applies to reservations made through an intermediary.
