Having had a couple of old cars, it's been great knowing that I have unlimited callouts with the AA. Great value for money - very friendly and efficient when they do come out, would recommend to anyone! Reviewed on: 23rd August 2017

AA Good Service

When I was with AA, you get what you pay for so they have lots of different options, when my car did break down they came very quickly and was able to check my car and provide me with the assistance I needed. Great customer service, when you get through to a agent. Reviewed on: 17th August 2017

Highly recommended

Iv been with the AA for over a year now and always been happy with the service. The only negative thing I have to say is the last time I used them I didn't get a courtesy car when I needed it and had to wait till the morning which meant I had to make my own way to my destination which was at 12am has my friend not came to pick me up I don't know what I would have done. However I think that the person in the office wasn't aware of the no refusal policy they have with enterprise cars. Reviewed on: 13th August 2017

Stuck on the road with a blown tyre with my baby in the rain for hours on a bend waiting for my recovery. AA man comes and helps me to safety in my car I soon changed insurers and was blown away by the kind man. Amazing company and lovely people that work for them.
