RAC or AA?

oliverp_2

Hi,

I just need basic breakdown cover. Both RAC and AA are £33, but RAC covers you regardless of the vehicle whereas AA is vehicle specific.

Who do you think is better, the RAC or AA?

Thanks

Keith

RAC and use quidco

Does your insurer offer breakdown cover?

You will find both AA and RAC will be quite a bit more expensive next year. The price is just the price for the first year.

Quidco, it is £33 with £21 cashback - if so it works out to £12 - so even if it's only for a year, thats fine.

Will it work ?

I think lots of people on these forums have used quidco for breakdown cover, so any non-payments will no doubt get a mention somewhere

just to add you can get RAC cover with Tesco vouchers

I 2nd the RAC & QUIDCO route

Quidco tracked it with in mins and is due to be paid this may. The info pack and membership card arrived 10 days later.

Only thing though if you do break down close to home, push it so its over a mile away! I think thats a standard thing will all the base packages though.

My AA roadside cover is included in my Select bank account with TSB, this account does cost £7.50 per month so not worth it if only benefit used is AA cover as it is cheaper to pay yearly membership than bank account fees.
