    Breakdown cover is the same as any other product you can buy with the same due diligence needed.

    If it seems to god to be true, it most likely is.

    You ultimately get what you pay for.

    I had cover for a number of years with a "cheap" Breakdown provider, and all was good, till I needed them, and they then refused assistance on a technicality to a disabled driver stranded on ther oadside (they did offer a recovery but for £250) they said my double puncture from an object in the road, was an accident, not a breakdown so not covered.
