“This company doesn’t deserve the time of day! After breaking down at 1 o clock yesterday afternoon on the A35 (Monday 25th August) with my partner and 3 young children, we called the AA to help get us back on the road. They sent a third party company out (arrived at 4pm) who told us our car couldn’t be fixed on the roadside. This information got sent back to AA, the third party company said the AA would be in contact within half an hour with time estimation of a tow truck for the car and my family. Half an hour passed. No contact from AA at all. I called them back, they said that they had contacted another third party company to do the collection and we had an hour to wait. An hour passed, still nothing. Called AA back to be told that the company had decided that they can no longer complete the recovery!! By this point, it’s 7pm. My young children had been sat on a busy bypass for hours. We managers to climb up a random rocky bank and across a bridge to find the nearest town to get our children some food and somewhere to get out the sun. The AA called back and said they needed to put us up in a hotel for the evening because there was no way of getting us or our vehicle home. They said once the keys had been collected they would order us a taxi to a pre-booked hotel. Keys were collected within half an hour. Still no taxi. Called AA back an hour later. They’d forgotten to order the taxi. Hadn’t told us where they were putting us up. We had to take it into our own hand in the end, ordered our own taxi which arrived at 10.30pm which took us to the premier inn they had booked. The taxi they finally did book was calling me at 1am this morning to tell me it was ready to collect me my partner and children. So the AA left us on the roadside from 1pm until 1am this morning. This company is an absolute joke! Not capable of keeping people safe in horrible situations, claim you are a priority because you have 3 young children yet can leave you for 12 hours, on a busy road, no pathway to anywhere, walking down a bypass trying to find a place of safety all on a boiling hot day with no shade at all. Assuring you someone is going to be there, to stay close to the car, because they will be there shortly, yet no one showing up. Honestly I am so angry with this company it’s unreal. To claim they are there to help is a complete disgrace because they honestly have no clue!!!!!! Avoid them!!!!!”

“Hi team, I would like to let you know about a repair my Porsche Cayman S received today in the carpark at the Dun Cow. I have cover through my RBS bank account and I can honestly say, it is money well spent! The mechanic Neal was exceptional! He took a real interest and professional attitude in the AA’s commitment to “getting you back on the road”, even though I asked “where’s the low loader” when he arrived. His total dedication to the cause was absolutely second to none! I was stranded 60+ miles from home, and no garages in the area were either interested in helping, or were too busy to assist. Neal was absolutely superb, knowledgeable beyond anything I have ever seen, his attitude in helping a stranded customer is a total credit to him, you have a gem there! Thank you again for all your help today! Richard”

“Following an accident that was not fault. The 3rd party admitted liability at the scene. Phoned AA and initially they told me because I lived in wales I needed to find my own repairer and they required quotes to see. Eventually after much back and forth they agreed to take it to a garage they use. The garage did not fit the car correctly and following been told it’s just water marks and independent assessor has stated there is over £560 plus VAT repairs still to be complete. The AA offered me £78 yo take it to my own garage and get it fixed. They are now refusing to provide me with a courtesy car that fits my family (3 car seats in back needs) if the car goes back to their repairer to fix the work that was not done initially Avoid the AA. They don’t look after customers. When trying to claim for car seats their response was “that is just life” They also refuse to give a like for like car as a courtesy car even though they had admitted full liability that the repair work was not to standard.”

“Just switched from Green Flag after 20 years. Had cause to call out AA to home address today. Response time was 3.5 hours. Not as good as GF and all support has gone AI (no human communication). Won't be renewing on this basis.”

“Shockingly bad. 11 hours waiting on a Motorway slip road, when the sub-contractor truck finally arrives, it is only to take me off the motorway... No further actiin taken by the AA. Utterly useless and un fit for purpose. Why pay a premium price to the AA now riding on it's once proud name, to badly manage a recovery. They do not communicate properly, total waste of space Not one penny to be wasted in the AAs direction ever again.”

“After paying my monthly subs to the AA for years I unfortunately had to call them last week after my car broke a spring after hitting a pothole. I nursed the car 1/4 of a mile and made it home. I pay for nationwide recovery and home start so next morning I was confident that a simple call would see my car delivered to my local garage for repair. My mechanic had asked me to check and sure enough the broken spring was resting on the tyre tread. After calling the AA I was transfered between 3 different advisors and listening to muzac I was eventually told that my situation didn't qualify as a breakdown, they were classifying it as an accident meaning I was expected to pay £300 for a low loader to take my car 2 miles to my local garage. I refused and decided to nurse my car to the workshop for repair. I've since cancelled my subscription to these charlatans. Hopefully the RAC will be more helpful should I ever need them.”

“I am absolutely appalled by the service I've received from AA Accident Assist. After being assured—multiple times—that I was covered and my repairs would be handled, they collected my car, took it over an hour away, and promised a replacement vehicle that never arrived. I've spent all day chasing them only to be told, after days of missed promises, that I was incorrectly advised and they won't help with repairs after all. My car won't be returned for at least a week, no replacement offered, and I’m left unable to get to work or take my kids anywhere. Agents have been rude and unhelpful, requiring me to repeatedly call and wait on hold. The AA’s service is a joke—they still have my car and are now suggesting I ask my insurance company to collect it, which I’ve been told isn’t even possible. I expected so much better. Absolutely shocking from a company that claims to care about its members.”

“Everything from the minute I got in contact. Contact was made at 7pm, call handler told me someone would be there around 8.15pm. Shortly after received a call from Walls truck services saying they aim to be with us at 21.50pm. After several calls back and forth, its now 2.09am and aa has said someone will be out by 2.30am. I've only renewed my policy 2 days ago, but I definitely won't be renewing it again or recommend this company. Absolutely awful services. Be honest and upfront and tell customers the truth about call out times. Customers would be more understanding.”

“We have been customers for 40 years and their performance has been good when we have needed them. But over the last 10 years or so, each year they have given us a ridiculous renewal quote and we've then had to hassle them for a reasonable one. This year, they wanted over £600. This was enough for us to go looking elsewhere and find we could get equivalent service from a competitor for under £200 which we accepted. Contacted AA to cancel the policy and they offered us the same service for £194!!!! Basically, they are hoping that their existing customers will just roll over and renew without question. Sorry, AA. If that is the way you treat loyal customers, we are better off elsewhere.....”

“I have been trying for 2 days to cancel my AA renewal cover for 2 days and going round in circles, the only way is Whats App chat, it continues to ask questions, you answer, then it tells you the system is down and you are then back to square one, absolute disgrace, I am going to trading standards, you cannot cancel in the app, it’s takes you to chat or whats app, customers have better things to do than spend hours trying to cancel a policy.”

“Refused to come out to my house without me paying an excess fee of £150 as it’s the second time I have reported that issue even though the first time they refused to come out and I was told to try again in 24 hours. Terrible customer service. Just looking to make money out of you. Don’t recommend. Go somewhere else.”
