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

WORSE SERVICE PROVIDED

1
After having my car window smashed and steering wheel stolen i had no help during the first 24hrs to get my car to my chosen garage to make sure it was secure. After having to arrange the transport of the car myself the car has now been sitting at the garage for 2 weeks with absolutely no contact from the AA in regards to giving the go ahead to start the repair. I feel i have paid for a fully comp insurance service and received no help with any stage of the process. I am having to do all the chasing myself to get the AA to provide the service i have paid for. When asking to speak to a manager or anyone that can help i am constantly told no one is available and i will get a call back, a call that never comes. After chasing everyday now finding out they thought the car was in a different garage (one of their chosen garages) I am now out of pocket either out of pure incompetence or the AA simply do not care. As of now still waiting on a simple repair to take place, the garage also waiting ready with the parts needed for 2 weeks now. It is true what they say, you do not know how good your insurance company are until you actually need to claim. In this case I've never had a worse service provided. Reviewed on: 19th November 2021

The AA living off a respected past.

I recently purchased car insurance via the aa and fortunately due to a error which was no fault of either party I cancelled and was so glad I had. The aa customer service is non existent and basically lies and argues with you and when you go to the top the person you deal with is obviously the guy who trains them as he is as obsturd and as stubborn as the reps. I maybe 50+ but I will not be told what's right and what's wrong and then expect me to pay for it and to keep quiet. Such a shame the aa had a good old fashion reputation for reliability and trust, something I will never entrust to anyone . Reviewed on: 18th November 2021

Nightmare to get our car repaired

Still waiting nearly 3 weeks to get our car repaired. It's not even started yet. The AA are clueless. Reviewed on: 5th August 2021

Very good

Very helpful and the customer service people like understanding. Reviewed on: 30th July 2021

Hiking up premiums

1
Had to pay a extra premium for a non fault accident? (windscreen repair). Most insurers don't charge or take any no claims earned. Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Very good car insurance 2nd year am staying with them Reviewed on: 17th February 2021

Unauthorised transactions

1
The AA will take money from your bank account with or without DD instruction, if you have to sever ties with them make sure you order a new card as they will still bill you regardless. totally illegal and underhand. Report to FOS if this happens to you. Reviewed on: 21st August 2020

Great cover, nice and easy to understand

5
I went with the AA because they were the cheapest on a comparison website at the time having never used them before, very easy to understand all the additional add ons and what was already included, I particularly liked that they offered a reduced rate on breakdown cover too as a policy holder, only needed to contact them to say I didnt want the policy auto renewing and they got back to me in a very timely manner, would use them again in the future just they couldn't beat another companies quote this year Reviewed on: 14th July 2020
