Dear customers, please note that we are currently receiving a very large number of enquires and calls. We are doing our very best to work through these as quickly as we can, however it will likely take longer than usual for us to come back to you and we thank you for patience and understanding.
In the meantime, we have prepared a dedicated list of FAQs to help answer some of your questions along with the relevant contact details.
Moreover, our usual FAQ area remains at your disposal to clarify all your doubts about long-term rental and the management of your vehicle and your contract.
WHO CAN DRIVE MY LEASYS VEHICLE?
Please contact your insurance company as it depends on the chosen policy coverage.
CAN YOU TELL ME MORE ABOUT THE RFL (ROAD TAX)?
All Leasys contracts include the Road Fund Licence which is included within your monthly rentals. If the road fund licence costs increase, you will be recharged for the difference.
We'll automatically renew your road fund licence, but you won't get a notification from us. If you need to check your vehicle has road tax for any reason, you can check the government vehicle enquiry page with your registration plate and the make of your vehicle Check if a vehicle is taxed - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk). This will then show you the current expiry date for both your Road Fund Licence and MOT. As the Road Fund Licence is set in the Chancellor of the Exchequer's budget, it is almost impossible to implement this across the term of the contract, so we'll pass on any annual increase or decrease for your vehicle contract. An invoice or credit will be raised after the RFL is purchased and will be sent with your usual invoice. The Gov.uk site can often take a couple of days to update so please recheck if necessary.
