I made the awful mistake of letting my tax run out for a week , then rang RAC as I had broken down ,they refused to pick me up as I had no tax , so I taxed the vehicle , phone up 2 days later to get picked up and they charged me £170 for the error of reporting a accident with no tax , it’s a con I have checked with the AA and they don’t do it , why should you pay for something you never had ?
