Who you guys using these days?
RAC keep bumping up the costs due to my customer loyalty and want a laughable £180
Needs to include full recovery. Who's the 'go' these days?

I've got a family cover with AA £23 a month covered for any car you are traveling in that's for 3 of us don't know cost of single cover

AA for me.

Its the same as insurance.......Threaten to leave and go to the other team and the price amazingly drops by 30-40%.

AA do the same every year too.

AA as well, covers all my cars and anyone else's car I'm in as a passenger

We are with the AA at £214 for us both including relay.

30 years with the AA and never had to call them out for an American car .... until, this little snag two and a half weeks ago









Linda was driving while I was at work and lost the tyre and stopped about 1.5 miles from home but still on the motorway. The AA were there very quickly (lone woman in distress, etc, etc) and they knew we had a big Dodge. Unfortunately they had to drop the car round the corner (and use lots of wooden blocks as the angle of the ramp and length of overhang were a problem ... you can see the number plate got bent while winching it on) and I fitted the teensie weensie and gubbed spare just to get us around the corner and into the garage.

Now find that Coker no longer do 225/75/14 Redlines so we will need to get blackwalls and break out the red Humbrol enamel. They were expensive tyres at the time 2003 (while Linda had the car in the US) and, annoyingly and despite about 10,000 miles here in the U.K. had plenty of tread left... dammit.

But, to avoid the hijack of Miles thread... the AA cover and Relay were worth it ...

All the best

I have AA cover including home start through bank account, all for £17 a month, so it sounds like a good deal then.

Also have breakdown recovery with my Barracuda insurance.

Ditto, but with the RAC... cant remember how much off the top of me head tho...

been with the AA for years

every year that will be £230

every year I say NO i'll join green flag RAC My dads got a trailer etc

we can have a long conversation about this or you can do it for what you did it for last year

they say OK

odd way of doing business doesn't do their image any good really

Much like all other things gas electric insurance phone internet

taking the Bananarama! is now called customer CHOICE

instead of the regulator doing anything useful its now our job now to keep them honest

Thanks everyone for input. What galls me is that if was a new RAC member I'd get £50 off the current quote.

In one week I've had the following take the Bananarama!.
Home insurance
Car cover
Mustang insurance

Every one is a company I've dealt with for some time and all of them have tried to shaft me for being a repeat cover. I should chuck Sky in there too.

I halved my home insurance costs in five minutes to the exact sale level of cover just using a compare site.

Looks like I'll be doing that for the rest of the various cover I need.

I swear those compare sites are computer linked to keep prices competitive.
I.e. The insurers will sell insurance below their value just to get a deal and the loyal mugs that don't compare prices and simply become repeat customers pay for the difference.
Final point in case, my Mustang cover jumped from £130 to £190 without any accidents or convictions.

RAC, 2 people, any car £73 we paid last year.

That sounds more like it

I use Greenflag. £170 a year for full European recovery for my girlfriend and myself in any vehicle we are in driver or passenger.

When the wheel fell off the Sprinter on the way to the Pod at Easter they took the trailer with the race car to the track while they recovered the van. No problem no questions just got on and sorted it

Was on an offer via Quidco (a cashback website).
That included recovery to any destination of the car also
