1）其中，关于visa的覆盖天数，Vsa signature卡是31天。
2）Chase UA的卡是primary的，另外现在新申请的Chase蓝宝石卡网站上已经写了是primary了。
3）不过，只要你的汽车保险是半保，primary和secondary其实没啥差别，Visa的效率还是挺高的，一般只要你claim以后把材料都准备好，都会圆满解决的，有一点要当心的是，他们会让你选择是由他们直接联系租车看公司理赔还是把钱给你让你自己跟租车公司打交道，个人觉得还是选前者比较好。以某网友的经历为例——”有次去华盛顿，路上被人超速撞了，hit and run，结果打电话给visa，由他们理赔，hertz给的账单是1000多刀，而visa算了一下只能赔付950刀左右，后来就让Visa去联系租车公司Hertz去处理了，反正后来Hertz也没找过我，以后又顺利地租了几次。但据别人的经验是，如果拿了钱自己去赔付的话，可能要补出那个差价。“
2、American Express：

1）关于AMEX的premium保险，客服态度很好，即使从网站上（priceline等）付钱租的车，只要都是用AMEX付的钱，打个电话给客服，他们都是一视同仁的，很爽气的加上保险（Chase UA也是）。

4、关于Supplementary liability险：
1）这块由于信用卡不覆盖，如果个人没有汽车保险，对自己开车信心不是很足的话，还是建议购买，每天10来刀，多数上限100万刀，毕竟美国交通事故可能要赔很多钱，不买万一出了事儿容易破产。；
2）如果自己有汽车保险，由于一般基本都买州要求的最低标准，6-10万，可以在租车之前打电话给保险公司，让他们在租车期间临时调到最高限额，比如我就要求保险公司在我租车期间调到最高30万的限额，然后每天只要多付2刀就行了，等你租完了，再把它降回去就行了，这样只要付10-20块钱就能cover这个行程了。当然还是没有信心的话，还是就买租车公司的100万SLI吧。
