Review of the RAC, Car Insurance:

Avoid RAC they stole money from pensioner bank account

1
These crooks auto renewed an 84 year old pensioners car insurance without sending a renewal notice. What was £500 for year 2022 was renewed at 1,331 in 2023 despite no change in circumstances or claims. We contacted RAC to cancel the insurance within the 14 day cooling off period as per their term and conditions and was advised it was cancelled on the telephone and a refund was being processed. A few days later we contacted RAC again as there had been no refund or confirmation email of cancellation to be told the insurance hadn’t been cancelled and there was no refund pending. Spoke to manager who said this time they had definitely cancelled the insurance and would receive a refund in the next few days. One day later RAC had taken yet another payment of £1,257. We contacted RAC yet again and was told the money was taken in error. They then refunded the original payment for car insurance but we are still awaiting the refund of £1,257 that was taken in error and all RAC say is the refund is processing that was 6 days ago. The customer service team are rude and argumentative. I’ve scanned every email that came through by RAC and there was 100% no renewal notice. This is Theft. The bank are now involved and have also asked RAC to return stolen money. Avoid RAC. Reviewed on: 13th December 2023
