Remaining holds / amounts
Faro Airport (FAO), Portugal
Condition breakdown
Even on a zero damage-deposit product, the supplier can still block or charge for fuel, tolls, extras and fines. These are separate amounts from the damage hold.
- Damage deposit
- €0 on qualifying final offer
- Fuel amount / hold
- €70–€250 typical fuel amount depending on tank size and policy
- Toll amount / charge
- €100 Via Verde toll amount, held separately
The €100 Via Verde amount is a separate toll line. It is not the damage deposit and not the fuel amount, and it is settled against actual toll usage.
- Card requirement
- Card must have enough available limit for the fuel and toll amounts combined.
- Contractual liability
- Traffic fines, cleaning and late-return fees are charged after the rental ends.
What this means in practice
- Full-to-full fuel policies usually block a refundable fuel amount; full-to-empty policies charge a tank up front.
- Toll devices are billed separately from the damage deposit and can be pre-authorised.
- Ask the counter to itemise every amount before you sign.
