FAQ

We've tried to answer all questions you may have about using the Application.

Payments
How much does a booking cost?

From the 'Search & Book' tab, prices are displayed according to the selected time. Once the vehicle is selected, you can find the exact rental conditions (kms included, price per extra km and required deposit). Please note that the prices displayed are estimations. Indeed, the final price is calculated at the end of the rental period, according to the exact duration of your booking and the number of kms.

When do I get invoiced?

7 days before the start of your booking (or when you create your booking if it is within 7 days), we will pre-authorized the estimated booking amount as well as the vehicle deposit on your bank card.  At the end of your booking, we will use the pre-authorized amount on your card to pay the booking (it can be a different amount according to the exact rental period and the final kms).

When do I get my deposit back?

💳 When booking a vehicle, we will hold a pre-authorisation on your bank card equivalent to the price of your booking and the security deposit (when relevant). A pre-authorisation is a hold-over funds on your bank card to guarantee that enough funds will be available for the rental, including extras. 

If after your booking, other costs need to be charged (ex: damage, fine, etc.), we will use the pre-authorised deposit to cover those costs (see question 'when will I be invoiced' for further information).

After a maximum of 28 days after the end of your booking, the pre-authorised amount will be available again in your bank account. Please note that this amount will not appear as a transaction on your bank statement as it was never debited. The money simply becomes available to use again.

It has been more than 28 days and I still have not received my deposit. What should I do?

As a reminder, deposits are a pre-authorised amount on your bank card. This means you can not use this amount to pay for something else. However, this money is not debited from your bank account. When we release the pre-authorization, the same process applies, the amount is made available again but will not appear as a transaction on your statement as it was never debited. You can simply use this amount again.

However, if you see that this amount is still blocked after 28 days, please contact your bank for more information.

Registration
Why is a video selfie verification required?

Our identity verification partner uses this video selfie to ensure that the identity documents provided are those of the person creating the account. During the use of the vehicles, a new video may be requested (to confirm that the person using the vehicle is the person who created the account). This will always be clearly stated.

  • To not have had more than two accidents which you were guilty of in the last 5 years.
  • To have never been declined by an insurance company.

Using the vehicles
I can not start the vehicle

Please note that you have 2 minutes after you unlock the vehicle to start the engine. If you take longer than 2 minutes, no worries: simply re-open the App, with your Bluetooth on.

  • For vehicles with a start/stop button, simply press it. 
  • For vehicles with a key, you can find the empty key in the glove box of the vehicle. Simply insert the key and turn it to start the engine, while keeping the App open.

If you do a short stop to fill or charge the vehicle for example and you can not start the engine, simply re-open MyMove app and follow the same steps as above.

Can I lock/unlock a vehicle without internet access?

Yes you can, you just need your bluetooth on. But please note, bookings can only be made with internet access. In case of future bookings, the digital key will be automatically downloaded a few days before the start of the booking.

What do I do if a red light appears on the vehicle dashboard?

🚨 Please stop the vehicle immediately and contact our support team via the Help & Support option in the App. Then, contact the Assistance number available in the glove compartment of the vehicle.

What do I do if an orange light appears on the dashboard?

Please inform our support team via the ‘Help & Support’ option in the App and they will advise you on the next steps.

Can I return the vehicle in another station?

No the vehicle must always be returned to the original location.

Where can I see my bookings?

You can see your current, past and upcoming bookings by clicking on "Bookings" on the menu at the top right of the app.

Why can’t I extend my booking?

The most likely reason is that someone else has reserved the vehicle right after you. It can also be that you already extended it before. You can try doing another booking after yours, or you can contact our support team via the  ‘Help & Support’ option in the App if required.

House rules
What should I pay attention to when I leave the vehicle?

  • Is the engine turned off?
  • Are the doors locked? 🔑

Do I need to clean the vehicle?

Please use and take care of the vehicles as your own. Do not leave any trash or personal items in the vehicles and ensure it is in good condition inside and outside.

If you leave some trash in the car or if (the inside of) the car is extremely dirty (for example food stains or dog hair), we will charge you the cleaning fees.

🚭 Smoking is not permitted in any vehicle.

What to do if the vehicle is dirty when I arrive?

If the car is dirty, you can report it to our support team via the ‘Help & Support’ option in the App, or via a “damage not visible” in the damage report. Please provide images of the vehicle if possible.

What to do if I forget something in the vehicle?

You can simply create a new booking via the App and unlock/lock the vehicle within 3 minutes. The first 3 minutes of bookings are free of charge. If the vehicle is no longer available for bookings, please contact our support team via the ‘Help & Support’ option in the App and they will assist you.

What if fuel/charge is not full when I take the vehicle?

Please inform our support team via the ‘Help & Support’ option in the App. You can then bring back the vehicle with the same fuel level as when you took it.

Damage checks
What to do if the vehicle is damaged?

At the beginning and end of each booking, the App will ask you automatically to check for damages and signal any new damage before opening the vehicle.

⚠️  It is important to report any damage at the beginning of your booking as previous unreported damage could be attributed to you without an image proof. We advise you to take high quality photos to show the vehicle state.

How should I take pictures of the vehicle for damage controls?

Please try to provide the best angle and image quality of the vehicle to show the state of the vehicle at the beginning of your booking. Please note you are legally responsible for any damages not properly documented at the start of your booking.

What do I do in case of a breakdown?

If a breakdown occurs during your trip, first contact us via the ‘Help & Support’ option in the App and call the Assistance number available in the glove compartment of the vehicle. Please refer to ‘what to do if I need to call the Assistance’ for more information. 

What do I do in case of an accident?

Stay calm and follow the steps below:

  • In case on injuries, call first the European emergency number (112). 📞
  • Next put the vehicle in a safe spot and place the warning triangle at the correct distance. On the highways this distance is at least 100 meters from the vehicle; in town, 30 meters are enough.
  • Write and countersign the accident report if relevant.
  • Then contact us via the ‘Help & Support’ option in the App and explain to us what happened.
  • Contact the Assistance number, available in the glove compartment of the vehicle. Please refer to ‘what to do if I need to call the Assistance’ for more information.

What to do if I need to call the Assistance number?

When talking to the Assistance, here's what you can tell them about the device in the vehicle.

"This vehicle is a shared car. A device has been installed on it so that we can open it with a phone. This is connected to the vehicle's OBD plug. Without this connection, it is impossible for me to start the vehicle. Also, this device is quite fragile so you should not use a booster or jump start it while it is plugged in."
