RAC Car insurance reviews (187)

Vile organisation

Don't insure with these. Double your fee after 12 months and hope you don't notice the auto renewal price. Also you would be very lucky to see a penny in a claim. Rude customer service also. And NEVER use the breakdown recovery. They don't exist if you have anything worse than a flat battery. Even then you can be abandoned for 12 hours or more Reviewed on: 19th October 2023

Fair price insurance

Spotted the firm online when my previous insurers wouldn't lower their prices Reviewed on: 14th October 2023

Really bad!

Every expensive No one ever answers the phone App doesn't work, website login never works, telematics don't work. Avoid Reviewed on: 9th October 2023

Inefficient & ineffective

Probably the most inefficient & ineffective insurance company I have ever had the misfortune of giving my money. Takes 6 months to replace glass & disputes the complaint about the time taken & as you have had to chase them, they consider it appropriate communication. Then with another claim now 3 months in, caused by a third party where CCTV footage, clearly showing the vehicle registration of the car that hit my stationary car overnight have done NOTHING at all because the third parties insurance company hasn't picked up the phone. I wish I had used the insurance company of the party that damaged my car...... At least they are trying to protect the no claims bonus of a drugged up driver, clearly rolling a joint & smoking it on camera. Reviewed on: 5th October 2023

NOT the RAC you think it is

not the RAC, you think it is just some rip-off insurance companies Trading under that name AVOIDE Reviewed on: 3rd October 2023

cant get a quote

YOUR WEBSITE DOESNT WORK filling in all the details at a time cost to me And finally...this page doesnt work useless cant get a quote going elsewhere Reviewed on: 3rd October 2023

Shocking

Shocking. RAC appoint solicitors for a non fault accident. 3rd party admits liability. RAC’s solicitors fail to settle anything then sue me, their client, for their costs!! Court case. LOSE. Appeal LOSE. Hugely out of pocket after five days in court for an accident that wasn’t my fault, and admitted by 3rd party. Government must investigate insurance racket.. disgusting . 4 years of stress Reviewed on: 29th September 2023

Delay in refund for cancelled Policy

I made a mistake on the details of the 2nd driver and cancelled the policy on 11 September. The policy was not due to start till 30 September. The funds left my bank on 11 September. I needed the funds, £486.84, returned well before so that I could insure elsewhere. Now told that they will be returned 8 days after policy start date. This means that I will be without use of a car till 8 October. I an an OAP and am dismayed that a well know organisation should treat people this way. I will be cancelling my RAC membership which I have had for many years. Reviewed on: 28th September 2023

Rac/markerstudy

I have cancelled my rac car insurance because of bunch of clowns called markerstudy I haven't had an accident/claim in over 5o years but had to report a car park incident this year which caused scuffed bumpers only but no claim made but these people have put a marker on my name meaning that any insurance Co taking me on believe I have had an accident and put the cost up significantly will never use again and will make sure no family or friends do either Reviewed on: 29th August 2023

The cheapest but still wildly expensive

The cheapest deal but still outrageously expensive. Despite having another year of no claims under my belt when I came to renew my insurance this year the only quotes I could find were all at least £100 more thank last year. Reviewed on: 25th August 2023
