MSE News: RAC hikes breakdown cover prices by over 30% in some cases – how to beat the increases

RAC breakdown cover policyholders will see prices hiked, in some cases by more than 30%, at renewal. But if you've had a notification of a price rise, you don't have to accept it. You may be able to leave penalty-free, or haggle to get the price lowered.

  • So I got an email from the RAC my policy will hold at £35 - this was the 2nd of August for my current car
    On the 5th got an email saying it was now £41.99 for my Nissan leaf, sadly I do not own nor have I ever owned a Nissan Leaf. Called the help line who tried to convince me that I had a Nissan Leaf.... initially I said I wanted to cancel, and of course she said she could 'work on' the price for my erm Nissan, needless to say I cancelled the renewal, and went on a cash back site and got superior cover, and 35% cash back, My wife now wants a Nissan Leaf as this must be the way to go for ex RAC customers, and clearly more likely to breakdown! Thanks RAC.
