Review of the AA, Breakdown Cover:

Can’t fault them

Never had to use breakdown services but I was with AA for a year and can’t fault it, good price as I passed with AA driving school so I had a discount, they offer decent benefits and discounts and are a very reputable and trusted company for a reason. Reviewed on: 6th March 2024

NHS workers beware the AA

So I’m a NHS worker and just tried to to order breakdown cover with the AA as they stated 40% off and it stated this will be calculated at payment, this is a lie, no discount was added but they took my payment and when I called to check on this they said they are not sure why this is however it I want to cancel it will be £20!!!!! What a sneaky trick they play to steal NHS workers money!!!! Reviewed on: 22nd February 2021

Insensitive and unhelpful

I paid a highly inflated price for a new car battery because the 5 year guarantee sounded like a good thing. However I just tried to claim on the warranty and it’s not worth the paper it is written on. Reviewed on: 20th February 2021

Totally useless!

When my daughter had a road traffic accident on the M5 she was told, “sorry we don’t come out to accidents, only breakdowns”. My son’s parked car was hit and left with the bumper hanging off. He was told, “sorry we can’t attend as the car is drivable”. Consequently, he drove a mile and the bumper fell off completely. Wouldn’t touch them with a barge pole! Reviewed on: 19th December 2020

No Stars - Appalling Help - Refused To Change A Faulty Battery

AA Job No - 3031 - On Date 20/11/2020 No Stars. This was the worst experience in all my years as a member of the AA, by a country mile and the first where the AA Representative attending refused or could not change over a faulty battery! The AA Representative stated a prior Medical Condition prevented him from replacing the failed battery with a new battery. Ergo, what is the point of a mechanic who cannot or will not change a car battery! The AA clearly states it carries spare batteries in their vans... Is this just for show! Hence, we were left to solve the urgent issue ourselves, with the car running and told not to switch it off, whilst the AA representative disappeared off into the distance. Thank you Kwik Fit for coming to our rescue and solving the issue. Appalling service from this AA representative. Again... No Stars! Reviewed on: 23rd November 2020
