Upon every renewal despite hardly using the service over the past years the price is massively hiked. You have to kind of cancel discuss and renegotiate. This year UI missed the cancellation and got charged over £300/

Hi Abdul, the renewal price will be based on the standard price for the cover you hold. Any deal or discount applied in the previous year wouldn't automatically carry over. We hope you've managed to speak with the team directly so they can help.

Exceptional Service

I had hit a curb and ruined two tyres, the AA estimated await time 2hrs 40mins. The AA man Alex arrived after 45 minutes, He checked both tyres, phoned around to see which garages had the size, he took the first one, then came back, fitted it, then placed his wheel on my car to take to the garage where he followed to collect his wheel. This was an exceptional service, I would not use any other breakdown company

Everyone involved was caring

Everyone involved was caring, compassionate and professional. They made sure that everything was taken care of and kept me informed throughout the process. The experience was made as easy as possible for me, especially as this was my first experience of having to make a claim. The repairs were high quality and ensured the car warranty was observed by using the correct parts. Everyone I spoke to throughout the process was polite, friendly and supportive.

Value price professional service

Car insurance is something you normally buy but never use. I hadn't had any incident in over 20 years so when I was involved in a hit and run I had to make a claim. They honestly made the process so easy, they coordinated the repair company and hire car companies to contact me.

Im insured with the AA and they handled my car damahmge brilliantly

Im insured with the AA and when my car was damaged and undriveable whilst legally parked I contacted them by phone and they were quick to answer and sent a recovery vehicle quite quickly and took it to an approved garage. They organised a hire car which was delivered the same day and the whole claim process was dealt with swiftly and efficiently. I felt I was in safe hands and all the staff were friendly and helpful

Claim for a third party caused accident

Claim for a third party caused accident was straight forward with friendly excellent service. Claim process was simple. All management of repair and liaison was handled well. Outcome for me was as good as it could have been. Would definitely recommend the AA insurance service.
