My RAC renewal is due in June, we buy through Tesco vouchers so its quite inexpensive, but Autoaid does look tempting.0

everyone seems to be paying £80+ for breakdown cover. I've always paid £30 ish.
Not sure why more people don't get these. Is there something I need to know about breakdown cover? Admittedly I don't drive more than 20 miles away from home. Being based in London that's as far as I would travel. Are the £30 breakdown cover useless for people travelling up and down the country?
I vguely remembr something along the lines that the £30 cover will not return the car back to home but will take it to the nearest service centre and drop me off to the nearest hotel if I break down.0 -
Autoaid is very good, the downside is that you have to pay and reclaim so would need to come up with a large amount up front for a long distance recovery.
I have used Autoaid for several years and have had to call on them twice. On both occasions I received the reclaim money before my credit card (which I'd paid with) payment was due.[0 -

That was my experience..however, one needs to have sufficient credit on the card in the first place...sometimes bills are several hundreds of pounds, especially with a long-distance recovery?No, I don't think all other drivers are idiots......but some are determined to change my mind.......0 -
Do Autoaid now cover "Partners"? they only covered spouses when I was with them.0
