Guys I got basic car renewal with Green flag for £15.70 (£37.50 with £20 Quidco cashback) Hope it helps some of you.

From my post in Quidco referral forum. I requested yesterday if they could add Green flag car recoverys and today its been added. I got a basic recovery for my 9 year old car (dont use it a lot) but need peace of mind, no home start for £35.70 less £20 cash back. Great deal £15.70 for auto recovery for a year well pleased. I got a quote for renewal for Norwich Union admittedly with home start for £72.51.

I just got £20 added to my account

    LOL yes sean good deal me's thinks. Its worth the £15 compared with what £100's if you break down by the road side.

    It might be chepaer it did state it depends on age of car, mine quite old although I do kepe it in good condition and serviced.

    I used to be a member of Green Flag under the BP Employee Scheme. One morning we were off on a day trip to France and my radiator sprung a leak on the M25. It was POURING with rain!
    They refused to attend as would not acknowledge my membership. After my wife and kids had been standing, soaking and freezing for two hours we finally sorted things. They ended up apologising, admitting the mistake and sending a truck.
    Never again - get some cover you can rely on!
    Can I help?

    Just a note:

    Im with the RAC and the max. call outs per year is 4. I know this because ive just used my 3rd and received a letter warning me that I only have one more to go.

    Just check how many times they will let you call them out per year.

    I thought this was a real bargain here, am I missing something? I did a check the other week on moneysomething or other for cheap car recovery amongst other things and it wasnt this cheap by a long short.
