Review of the AA, Car Insurance:

Reliable but very expensive

2
I've stayed with AA insurance as it's a name I know and feel secure with but they are more expensive than competitors and have always sent whopping renewal quotes. When I have the time to call and query it is suddenly reduced significantly. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2017

Great service

5
I had an accident recently and The AA were so efficient and guided me through the whole process Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Happy to work on their quotes

5
AA have been happy to adjust their prices to keep my business and the customer service has been great. I have also used them for my mother’s home and car insurance. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

AA wrongfully canceled insurance early

1
AA canceled insurance early, resulting in client needing to pay for temporary insurance to avoid missing appointments. No response despite promises of immediate investigation. Follow up call promised within 30 minutes did not materialise. Manager Laura did not respond. Eventually a representative rang to state the obvious—it was their error. However, no path to resolution for lost time and money provided. Thus official complaint made. Think carefully if this is the experience you want from an insurer. Reviewed on: 1st August 2024

A deceitful company

1
After an uneventful year with the aa they sent a renewal quote.. As always it's more than what a can get a new quote for. I chose to ignore it. A little while later my credit card statement came through and the aa had taken a new year's premium. Upon dispute the aa informed me I hadn't unselected auto renew and took £30 pounds admin few. Having looked at another policy from the aa it's clear they do their best to hide the auto renew tick box by disguising the select box in a hidden drop down box. Very devious. Having taking a new policy with AXA their auto renew box was very clear and visible. I won't be using the aa again. Any company hiding such tick boxes should be avoided at all costs. On another note why companies should be allowed to have the auto renew already ticked is something I can not fathom and should change! Reviewed on: 25th July 2024

Poor Customer Service

1
We took out a new policy with the AA. Three weeks later we changed our car for an identical (but new) model; no other details had changed. When I contacted the AA to advise of the change of vehicle I was told that the price of our insurance would increase by 60%. I was advised to go back to a price comparison website to seek a better price. I found a cheaper quote elsewhere but was then told by the AA that the refund on our policy would include a cancellation fee. So my options were to accept a 60% increase on my premium or pay a cancellation fee in order to take up a cheaper policy elsewhere. Reviewed on: 22nd July 2024

My profoundly deaf husband has been trying to cancel his policy. He was told to email he request. No response!!! I am not allowed to do it, even though I am on the policy!! Reviewed on: 3rd July 2024

Haggle to a Best Deal

5
Straightforward to deal with over the phone, to ensure I always get the best deal and not accept the renewal price. The AA are happy to haggle and sort out my car insurance at a great price for another year Reviewed on: 17th June 2024

Impossible to get a response.

Impossible to get a response. I've being trying to cancel my insurance within the 14 day cooling off period and they will not respond. I've even sent them a registered letter. Reviewed on: 11th June 2024
