Car breakdown cover renewal

Just got my car breakdown cover renewal from Green Flag £59.36 (£51.52 last year … 15% increase). Just renewed online with Rescuemycar.com using MSE20 code for 20% discount and it came back £20.18. Big saving as it’s the same cover as Green Flag so cancelled and renewed with Rescuemycar.com.
Many thanks to the team …. Tom

Don't praise Rescuemycar until you actually need them.
The first pair they sent out to start my car looked like they had never seen a car engine before.
They also won't cover the same issue more than once, and they refused to tow my car to a garage later, having turned up at 7pm on a 12pm callout on a Friday, when my garage is closed until Monday! Got them to tow it anyway and posted my key through the garage door. (The garage had it started in 5 minutes and didn't charge me btw!)
I'm back to alternating RAC and AA each year, claiming the new customer discount and the cashback each time.

I stick with AA due to service. No point paying peanuts and getting a rubbish service when you really need it. You just need to ring AA up each year to get the price matched to those offered to new customers.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA).
