RAC brake down cover

if any one want cheap brake down cover plz plz gimmy a poast on here and i will try my best to help you out ..

rac have a offer on atm that is pritty sweet see below


end date = 28/02/07
person covered type of cover cash C/C
(single cover only) solutions 2 (roadside & at home) = 57.00 43.00
(joint) = 81.00 67.00
(family) = 119.00 105.00

(single) solutions 3 (roadside , rec & home) = 101.00 87.00
(joint) = 132.00 118.00
(family) = 172.00 158.00

(single) solutions 4 (roadside , rec , home & ot) = 133.00 119.00
(joint) = 164.00 150.00
(family) = 204.00 190.00

looks confusing but let me help the comments , roadside is the basic level of cover . if we cant fix your car you get a 10 mile tow only . but you must be 1/4 mile away from your home address , at home ... well work it out . its at home . recovery means that we will take you to your home address if you are a long way from home ( uk mainland , a 200 mile tow costs us about 400 quid so you can imagine the cost it will cost you ) . and finally onward , this means if your car went bang ( engine , gearbox ) we will get your car home and give you a replacement car ( for 3 days ) ....

brake down cover is a must ... as i said the offer will run out soon so if you want more info please reply of pm me i will help you out as best i can ...

btw ... cash = one off payment with no discount
c/c = payment with a credit card in a one lump sum or by 4 1/4 payments ( to help spread the cost) so say you want solution 3 with two people the cost is 118.00 spread one payment every 1/4 it would cost you 29.50 a 1/4 ....

hope i can help
22864 quid and counting , but now proud to be dealing with it :j

    Why would you use the RAC or AA when you can find the same cover for about a third of the price on this forum.

    Shame you got such a poor reception but maybe your offer isnt a lot better than the RAC guys that pounce on you outside supermarkets.
    I do however have RAC cover and the family policy IS a very good offer. with 5 adult car drivers in the house knowing we are all covered regardless of which car we are driving is great. This year we had to call them out 5 times to a intermittent fault with my daughters car and still they offered us a loyal customer discount on the renewal.
    Maybe you should look for a different area on the site to post your offer to get a better reception
  • OR - do what I just did - existing RAC member; when you do you car insurance search each year https://www.confused.com - was a great starter. RAC was the cheapest (yes all t&c were the same), then say to them on the phone I am existing RAC member etc... what "deal" can you do for me on breakdown, take it out with them then cancel the RAC memebrship (separate co) I ended up saving about £45 on the breakdown and £200 on the car renewal compared with direct line..

    So ask - banter - bargain do the internet search then phone them and banter it worked or me!
    Me i'm always after a good deal.. :rotfl:
