Breakdown Cover Advice

Our renewal has come up and RAC want to charge £209. Didn't have the greatest experience in 2 call outs with them, one took over 3 hours and the other 5. We are looking to cut costs and I've been looking at Autoaid, what are people's experience's with them? However our vehicles are 14 years and 11 years old so I read there are extra call out costs even if you pay the old vehicle premium? Looked at Eversure but their reviews don't seem good.

    I chose 2together breakdown for £20

    Roadside plus 10 mile to a garage

    Includes recovery but you pay direct for that and claim it back

    Autoaid was fine, use local recovery companies so quickly recovered and returned home. 

    I swapped to Nationwide packaged bank account now £13 per month breakdown travel and mobile insurance for the whole family and the last 2 years they’ve given £100 back as I have a mortgage with them as well or some savings would do the same.
