Hi,

Recover-me (co.uk) is offering good breakdown cover for my needs at a reasonable price. But I am unable to find any reviews for them. Wanted to ask around here for opinions, if someone has used them in the past.

Their About us says
"RecoverMe is part of Auto Rescue Logistics (ARL), widely regarded as the experts in their field and the choice of the professionals. Since 2002, ARL has been providing roadside recovery and breakdown services to major motor insurers and large fleet businesses, serving some of the best known household brands in the UK. ARL also manages the largest network of recovery agents in the UK, meaning faster response times than competitors."

Thanks

    not really, they may be fairly new. The company behind them seem to be of some repute.

    It says they dont use branded vans saying the costs are too high. Then says they use unbranded vans when the demand is high?

    Mentions Autoaid but the only negative is you pay up front and claim it back?

    Mentions First Call, Covers the car and not the driver.. errr isnt that their terms also?

    At the end of teh day if you call them its going to be a local (ish) garage that come out to you. They maybe good they maybe bad. You wont know until its too late.

    MSE guide comes down firmly for Autoaid - who do cover the driver (not the car).
