AA Mediation First Class

The AA mediator I was assigned to Verity was excellent. From the very first call she was attentive, considerate, and professional.

She had to deal with a very difficult supplier,yet navigated the process , enabling me to reach a satisfactory outcome.
Well Done AA Mediation

Totally trustworthy and great value

This family-run business is a rarity these days, offering everything a car buyer needs: a wide range of very reasonably priced, reliable vehicles - offered with genuine concern for the customer. I cannot speak highly enough of the personal care Kevan to took at every stage of the process, from ensuring the car was matched to my needs and budget, and keeping me informed throughout. AA Cars Liverpool are the best.

Hayley Mills

Hayley the lady assisting us, was a great help, I don't believe we would have this outcome without her. In my opinion, the Dealership was not interested in helping. They are the reason the whole process took so long. Hayley spoke with the dealership several times, how she turned him around I don't know. We feel extremly lucky to have ended up in the hand of Hayley.
Because of Hayley Mills we would think about using the AA Website again.
Thank you Hayley.

Thank you Grace! AA Mediator.

AA Mediator Grace supported us in a very difficult situation where a car dealership owed us a significant amount of money. Grace was very very professional and maintained excellent communication throughout. I'm uncertain if we would have recieved the refund due, without a lengthy court process. If it hadn't of been for Grace and her consistency between myself and the dealership. Thank you Grace and the AA!

Support from AA

I was sold a faulty car and was having trouble with the dealership trying to get a refund so reached out to AA. Verity Lowe got in touch with me very quickly asked for the details and mediated between me and the dealership, within a matter of days she has arranged the refund. In such a stressful time I can’t thank her enough for how swiftly she resolved the matter but also her kindness and reassurance throughout the whole process. If you are looking at a car make sure they are AA standard as you will also be getting the support should anything happen.

AA Approved is a lie, it means nothing at all

Have been looking for a new car, kept seeing AA approved sellers popping up which I thought was a good thing to begin with. After reading the AA's info on their "approved" scheme it turns out they just sell their name to garages and car dealers to make them seem more trustworthy. The AA don't guarantee in anyway that said car dealer or garage is actually any good, or follows any of the processes outlined by the AA, or that they ever followed any of the processes. But the dealer told the AA once that they do it all, so no worries I guess.

I had a very positive experience dealing with Verity at the AA. She did everything possible to resolve my dispute and kept me informed on a regular basis. I'm glad I contacted the AA they were very supportive.

We got our deposit back, thank you Grace

My husband Artur contacted AA Cars when a dealer we wanted to buy a car from messed us about and then refused to give us our deposit back. AA Cars got back to us very quick, Artur was talking to Grace who provided an outstanding mediation and we eventually got our deposit back. We didn't have much hope getting the money back but Grace was amazing, she was informing us about every step, we can't thank her enough. I highly recommend AA Cars mediation service

Outstanding mediation service

This 5 star rating is for Hayley at AA Cars who provided an outstanding mediation service, enabling a full refund for a car with serious quality issues from a dealer with very poor after sales service. Hayley's persistence and regular, clear communication has been very much valued.

Tenacious in bringing the garage to task!

I had a bad experience with a car dealer and didnt know where to turn for help.
I contacted the AA and their arbitration service was amazing!
They understood my complaint and were tenacious in taking the garage to task !
Even though it took several months they didn’t give up and kept me informed of progress throughout the process.
Can’t thank them enough, you know who you are Miss GJ, thank you from the bottom of my heart x

Verity has been persistent and very professional.

Verity has been professional and has kept me informed throughout. She persistently pushed the dealer to respond to her questions and they eventually agreed to pay back the money owed to me. I did not expect the dealer to pay because they had been less than truthful throughout. Had they not agreed to pay, I would still have rated the service Verity provided as 5 stars.

Excellent service delivery by Verity

Verity at AA Cars pursued our grievance in an extremely professional manner and updated us regularly if not daily. Verity's work meant that a fair outcome was delivered saving us significant costs and restoring our faith in the motor industry.

The AA cars are backing up scammers and thieves.
AUTO ATLAS located in Leighton Buzard is a scam!
They lie and deceive you.

The AA do not inspect these cars and will not help you in any way when you will purchase a car advertised from these scammers.
