    Go with AA, it's better than the RAC anyway. 
    And your evidence for that is?

    I paid £32 for a year with Emergency Assist Ltd - not had a call out yet with them.

    I nearly fell off my chair when I saw my RAC renewal. If I look on a comparison site it shows the RAC at £75!

    Their service is terrible, 3 call outs in 2 years all over 4hrs wait time. I'm thinking the AA, Gem or Green flag so open to reviews.
    might be why they want £450
