About Silvercar:
Silvercar is a new-age car rental company that has a fleet of the Audi A4, Q5 SUV, Q7 SUV, and A5 Cabriolet convertible.
Cars come with built-in GPS, satellite radio, bluetooth, leather seats, and even a free WiFi hotspot. Unlimited miles are included in every rental.
You can also request Peg Perego booster and convertible car seats at no additional charge!
You can rent from Silvercar as long as you are at least 22 years old with no underage fees.
There is no additional fee for adding additional authorized drivers to your reservation.
You only pay when you pickup the car, nothing is charged beforehand and there are no cancellation fees ever.
Both AMEX and Chase cover the CDW insurance for an Audi A4, A5, Q5, or Q7, just select personal coverage when renting and write AMEX, Chase, etc.
The Chase Sapphire Preferred card will include primary insurance and earn 2 points per dollar. The Chase Sapphire Reserve card will include primary insurance and earn 3 points per dollar, plus Silvercar rentals qualify for the $300 travel credit. No AMEX cards come with primary coverage, but you can add primary coverage for about $20/rental by calling AMEX and enrolling in primary car rental CDW coverage.

Have you rented from Silvercar before?
Are you allowed to pick up at FLL and drop off at MCO?
Make a reservation at FLL and call to adjust the dropoff.
I spoke to them about a month ago about this and they told me that you cannot drop off a one way rental at MCO
Do they have high fees when dropping it off somewhere else?
Dan, while the Amex offer may seem enticing do you think it’s worth it to use it over sapphire reserve for insurance purposes? TIA
You can enroll your AMEX for primary coverage.
Can you take the car into Canada?
Yes
I checked my all 4 AMEX account I don’t see the offer of $100 off $350 at Silvercar
what’s best company to pick up in one city and drop off in another e.g. houston to dallas or boston to philly?
Try https://costcotravel.com
The amex offer says rental must be completed by the offer date on may 20th. so this wont work if i am renting in June right?
Correct.
sux but it is okay. i still got good rate with AVIS , standard car for a week in san diego for total of less then $200. my only status is preferred. will avis match hertz or national excutive status?
The actual RENTAL needs to be done before the 20th? Or just needs to be booked by then?
It needs to be finished by the 20th
are all AmEx eligible for primary?
Can you add an additional driver that’s younger then 22?
No they both must be 22

Hi Dan. So I’ll get the $25 for using your referral and ALSO $25 after my first rental? Thanks!
just to confirm if i use a sapphire preferred than even if i have no insurance i will be fully covered
is there somewhere on the chase website that it says this?
Is Silvercar experience a booking glitch or some sort of website/app issue? Been trying to make a reservation to no avail.
i never got my $25 GC what do i do?
Contact them?
Dang!!! with the 2 day free code the Audi is less than the Hyundai Elantra from Budget in Denver!!!!! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!
Decisions Decisions….A4 or Q5?????
When I try booking in Chicago, it says the daily rate is $38 but when actually about to book it, it shows as $74.99/day. So I can do better with a luxury vehicle at Sixt or another. Would be nice to rent an Audi but too expensive. Am I missing something?
Any promo codes for FLL currently? What’s the best ones Dan? Lmk, I’m booking in 1 day!
