Is the RAC taking advantage of the consumer and the present weather conditions?

  • Taken out of context. I was simply retaliating to your comments from the low level intelligence that I am accused of. Shame on those that cannot have a decent discussion.

    With reference to the AA taking you to buy your own battery, while they may do that in some cases, they also supply their own batteries. And if they do take you to buy your own, you can find the outlets they use do have a mark up compared to other places, with a referral fee paid back to the AA.

    It would be fairer to ask a local garage what they would charge to supply and fit a battery for your car (of the sane type) to get a better idea as to how reasonable the RAC cost is though.

    My apologies OP, I forgot to add that in the future you should try AutoAid; much, much better than the previous members clubs that are just, to be wrung dry soon, asset-stripped corporate companies.

    I'm struggling to believe there is someone out there who can't fit a battery?

    What do you do when your telly remote stops working?
  • I flutter my eye lashes at a man nearest to me, cause only a man could change the batteries in a TV remote...not! lol
