Always fast, professional and practical.

I've had to use AA twice for breakdowns. As a woman sometimes I'm concerned my lack of car knowledge will lead to me being taken advantage of, however AA have made me feel the opposite. They have always been extremely kind, taken time to explain things and suggested appropriate solutions for my needs. Reviewed on: 1st December 2019

Professional and reliable

The AA have been going as long as anyone else, and they've always been there when I've needed them. Reviewed on: 14th September 2019

Worse Company in the World cause damage not fix it!!

Worse company in the world to deal with. My car has a fault which the patrol then added more problems when he damaged my ECU. Put in a claim straight away as soon as my Land Rover garage told me, they make me wait 6 weeks to come back to me and basically say Land Rover don’t know what they’re talking about cause the AA in house guys say their Patrol wouldn’t cause that issue. Even though I have CCTV evidence, proof from garage and Land Rover Uk. Ask them if their OBD readers and jump packs are regularly inspected and certificated (which they are) but they won’t supply evidence of this Reviewed on: 5th September 2019

Excellent service shame about the price hikes

I can not fault the service they provide however every year they try and put the price up by about £10 by just sending the new invoice through the post and I have to ring and spend a long time on the phone getting the price back down. Reviewed on: 9th July 2019
