In an already stressful situation (returning from holiday to find car not working at airport parking) AA entirely useless and massively added to stress. Waited for answer on phone for 20 mins where I was repeatedly advised to use the AA. Ap. Eventually gave up and downloaded Ap only to be put back in waiting queue on phone. 21 years of AA. So called gold member! I have used the service very infrequently but I had the same experience last time. Just waited and waited on the phone. Utterly unacceptable. I will cancel membership as soon as I can bear to contact them. Please do not provide a stock response AA. It adds insult to injury. Ps I never got through. Had to sort it out myself.

I made a complaint about the AA earlier this year. I was all hot and angry at the time. Although everything I said at the time was correct, I should have waited until I calmed down before complaining. The AA were very good at dealing with my complaint and handled it quickly and professionally. Everyone has a bad day at the office and the AA are no different. My apologies to the AA for my very angry complaint. Thankyou Steve Wadsworth.

Absolutely appalling service. Never seen or heard anything like it. Broke down at 8:30, got recovered to a service station 5 minutes up the road where they dropped me in 10 degrees temperature. I then waited 3.5 hours for another recovery to take me 40 minutes (40 miles) down the the M4 to have me put on another recovery truck! At this point being 3am I requested for a taxi to be booked and the car to carry on playing pass the parcel! They then took over 1 hour to arrange a taxi to take me home. From the start the string of lies (this recovery truck will be taking you home) but really it was taking me 17 minutes to the next service station. At this point I began to wonder how many more recovery trucks will I be put on before I arrive home? 12 hours maybe more? Worst recovery company I have ever come across, this isn’t the first bad experience from the AA. None of their own drivers 100’s of external companies they seem to be splitting 1 job into. Seems they couldn’t care less about their customers, no consideration to the time or weather. I will be taking matters further after this disgusting experience. I would for sure never trust them again ever and be cancelling my membership with immediate effect and demanding my costs back.

They will just rip you off. Stay away. If you are in trouble, the worst company to go to. Worst customer service.

Unbelievable. I took out a membership mid Sept. New package didn't arrive - sent back apparently. Called to enquire 10th Oct. Not resent until the 19th. Still not arrived (31st today) Rang and asked about a tracking number - don't have one....being sent cheapest way possible. 1 1/2 hrs drive from Auckland......suggest they courier new packages and cards; this is unacceptable

After applying for employment with AA and receiving an email last Thursday to say I'd been successful in gaining a telephone interview at 8.30am on the 17th Oct, I then received an email at approx 8.10am on the 17th Oct stating my application wouldn't be being taken any further as I had applied for the same role within a six month period. I did declare this on my current application. The fact I have had to re arrange my work schedule, take time out to prepare for the interview and to then be notified 20 mins before the interview that I wouldn't be being considered I find absolutely disgraceful and disrespectful and a complete lack of communication on the AA's part. Date of experience: 17 October 2022

I got made to believe its a unlimited call out BEFORE I took this cover out sales team told me regardless how many times but its NOT ...people before you take out this cover remember its upto 10 times if you go over the limit you have to pay ...take your money elsewhere where don't believe the AA it's not UNLIMITED I am totally put off with the AA I will never ever give them business or have anything to do with them after this its a fraud its not unlimited like they say unlimited means not limited or restricted in terms of number quantity or extent ..02045489015 i got a call from this number i have to pay ...so why am I being told I can't go beyond 10 call outs in a year and all was personal use not even business all were genuine call outs but am glad I have been aware of this unlimited scam so my people look into this before you part your hard earned money with the AA...please AA don't lie to us just to get your hands on our money

We had wonderful service from AA man Simon when we broke down in Stamford on 4 October 2022. He was extremely efficient and pleasant and solved the problem very quickly at the roadside. As there was a possibility that the engine might have been damaged by lack of oil, he followed our restart for a considerable distance to make sure all was well. Absolutely excellent service. Totally recommend.

On holiday in Cornwall and broke down in the middle of nowhere, halfway up a steep narrow country Lane. Spoke to operator who had a lot of patience trying to find out where we was. We could only say where we was travelling to. She asked a series of questions which are obviously standard but very much needed. The mechanic was with us 50 minutes later. Nice friendly chap. We was lucky it was a spark plug issue. All 4 plugs replaced and we was on our way. Only downside was the cost of the plugs at £138. We was very impressed .

Called twice and both times the attitude of the agents made me feel worse than the situation I was in. I am told I will have to wait about 3 hours although it js a Sunday morning Always buy your own breakdown instead of going through halifax

DO NOT INSUREWITH THE AA My husband had cover with the AA. He died in January and I notified them and they changed the policy to my name. They omitted to tell me that I was no longer covered for home breakdowns. I had flat battery at home in June, they told me I was not covered for home breakdown and eventually acknowledged that home breakdown should have been included and I understood that they have amended the policy. I had a flat tyre this morning and again the told me I did not have home cover. After discussions between 10am-1pm, during which time I had to get a friend to take me to a long-awaited hospital appointment, I got a local garage to deal with the problem. I decided to cancel my policy but the DO NOT GIVE ANY REFUNDS for the outstanding 6 months. Response to my complaint will be up to 8 weeks! They used to be so good.

As a carer I purchased an AA recovery policy and all ways felt confident that they would be able to provide a professional service if I was ever to break down with a vulnerable service user. Turns out this is not the case, after waiting three hours and reporting that I had a vulnerable person with me it sadly is not the case. The original time give changed several times before any recovery was attempted and the fact I mentioned twice in two separate calls this information was not logged or passed on, I now have serious concerns with using this service and am currently looking at other options. I have always viewed review sites with caution but based on my own experience I think the trust pilot rating to probably be correct.
