Breakdown cover

[Mad Cyril]

I am pretty sure we are being screwed by the RAC for breakdown cover.

Is anyone with one of the cheaper alternatives such as Green Flag and if so would you recommend them?

Green Flag's pretty cool, we also have cover through our bank account.

I checked my account direct debits and RAC are looking to take 250 quid for joint membership in October.

They can FRO.

You can always knock them down that's loads of money.I have only used them about 3 or 4 times in about 10/11 years so that gives me a bit of leverage with them

My 'other half' has been with RAC for 15 years, and her premium for next year ( same benefits as you ), commencing last month, was £189.
Last year it was about £160. She's never called them out & attempted the 'haggling' act with them to no avail.

I opened a flex plus at nationwide

it costs £13 a month- I dont use it for anything, and i dont have my wages paid in
breakdown cover for me wife and kids (if they break down they just say its my car)
worldwide travel insurance inc sking , inc kids up to 21
mobile phone insurance - again for family.

Both my kids have used the breakdown service and I have claimed for 3 phones (mas 4 a year)

excellent value for money in my opinion

My policy is a joint one but still works out a very reasonable price at about £50 each for 2 people.This year they did this deal sometimes they have quoted about £125ish but then after haggling let me have a 14 month membership

I'm with the AA, 2 years ago they quoted me the same price for a 2 year deal at £131 per year.

Think I got £133 a year on 2 year deal but that was after they quoted me £207 for a year until I said I was leaving them, they do try it on tho, and I’ve been with them for 20 plus years, hardly ever use them but at least I no it’s there if I need them and can’t get home plus you get free key cover also

Get RAC on Tesco points each year now my kids are grown up so I no longer have to lose the vouchers on a day of torture at LegoLand (where I've never seen anyone pay cash - everyone enters on vouchers). Drive a shi te car too so all too frequently call them out, and gotta say that the service has always been great
