No deposit blocked does not mean no excess

The rental can include basic CDW with a category-dependent excess while still placing no hold on the card. This means the excess is not frozen in advance. If covered damage occurs, contractual liability can still apply. Optional FDW may reduce that liability to zero for covered damage, subject to exclusions.
