AndrewBClarke Posted April 25, 2024 Posted April 25, 2024 My tin top is a Range Rover so I need the best breakdown recovery and have found the AA to be the best in our area. The renewal quote based on a household of three was a staggering £526 up from £407 the previous year. Trying to cut costs and on the basis that only 2 in our household actually need cover, I phoned the AA. By removing one person, the cost went down to £421. Ok. About right proportion. Next I pleaded poverty. Immediately the price went down from £421 to £158 based on the same level of membership!! Paid immediately in case they noticed the mistake!! 1 Quote
Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO Posted April 25, 2024 Posted April 25, 2024 Got mine down from £169 to £140. Gold membership for me and my daughter. Worth paying for the Westfield. Phoned for renewal, went through all the rigmarole of security questions, on hold for 10mins. Sorted renewal then asked about European cover. On hold again for 20mins. Went through security questions again then questions about the car, towing, bike rack and roof box, last question was which countries I would be visiting. Ireland. The AA have an agreement with the Irish AA and I had the same cover for free. 35 minutes for nothing. Shouldn't the first question be which country? Quote
Mark (smokey mow) Posted April 25, 2024 Posted April 25, 2024 I’ve been with Britannia Rescue for years. £150 per year which covers me and Dawn as drivers or passengers in any vehicle and additionally 1 named vehicle on the policy for any driver. This includes home assist and recovery to any U.K. destination. I’ve had the need to use them a couple of times in the last couple of years (once with a trailer) and they’ve been faultless. 1 Quote
Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted April 25, 2024 Posted April 25, 2024 Have a look at AutoAid. Great price and fantastic service. 1 Quote
AndrewBClarke Posted April 25, 2024 Author Posted April 25, 2024 Wasn’t really looking for alternatives. Over the years I have tried almost all of the recovery services. Around here the AA has been the best. It was the reduction in price that I highlighted. Quote
