AWFUL EXPERIENCE

1
Worst experience! STAY AWAY Worst experience! Took me 12 hours to get from Essex to Worthing (100 miles) Got dropped off at a services alone at night. Explained to GF I was afraid as it was 2am but they were not that bothered. Every time I tried calling I was on hold for 50-60 minutes when I totalled my wait time up it added up to a total of almost 5 hours just on hold to speak with someone… Just so you know……. If you need a towing service (like I did) they won’t tow you all the way home and it will take two or three drop offs….. but the drop offs won’t match up so I was told (after a 4 hour wait) that it was going to be another 4 HOURS at the service station before the next pick up was due to arrive….. By the time I get home it will have taken me a total of 12 hours from calling GF to walking in my door….. 12 HOURS to travel a total distance of 100 miles…. Alongside 5 hours of being on hold. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY! There’s reason as to why they are cheap! Reviewed on: 23rd October 2021

Waste

1
Been with greenflag paying 14 quid per month for any car for 2 years. everytime I try and use it, they say vehicle too old or vehicle not covered. next I try again with all them conditions and because i bought a new car and it was not taxed, they would not recover it all though it was taxed and takes time too update on the system. at £168 per year and get nothing out of it, I feel I have been giving too a charity. I am soo pissed off and should have stuck with the AA. Do not bother with this company, WASTE OF MONEY! Reviewed on: 26th August 2020

A WASTE OF TIME & MONEY, DO NOT USE !

As a KEY WORKER I was carrying a hospital patient going for chemotherapy treatment al Lincoln County Hospital but not in my own car when i broke down on route at Louth. called Green Flag, put on hold for about fifteen minutes then asked for the reg number of the car i was driving, gave them all the info they requested then told the car was to old for them to come out but they could offer help at a cost in excess of £100 BEEN WITH OUTFIT FOR YEARS AT OVER £14 PER MONTH, NOT ANY MORE Reviewed on: 4th July 2020

Appalling service

Being stranded on the M5 a few weeks ago for 6 hours for Green Flag was enough for me to join the 4th Emergency service the next day. It was the first and last time I would ever use them Reviewed on: 25th November 2019

Fantastic Service!

Been a member for several years, today was the first time I have needed their help. From the initial phone call to the resolution of the problem was less than an hour! The mechanic couldn't have been more helpful and polite. Reviewed on: 13th September 2019

Greenflag don't care if you have young children

1
I have been with them for 5 years used first time. I had two young children and stuck on hard shoulder of the motorway. I learnt that as they want to save money they arrange for u to be driven to different services. I must have rang them 10 times! Explained had young kids they gave me wrong ETA times. I felt stranded at last service. Please dont use them the second tow guy clearly told me if you were with Aa or Rac I wpuld have towed u down. I explained this to Greenflag I was dismissed that drivers can only work certain hours although the first driver had told me he just started his shift. My 2 hrs journey home took 8 hours!!! Greenflag are appalling. I dont know whats wrong with my car as the first tow guy didnt check told me to go to a garage Reviewed on: 9th September 2019
