I changed my car and tried to amend my policy. Cost was significantly more than I had anticipated so I ended up cancelling my policy and taking out a new policy with another provider. I was told there would be a £50 refund on the remaining cover but it could only be credited to the card with which I had paid in full for the policy @ 8 months earlier. I explained that I no longer had the credit card and I had closed my account with Newday card services. I challenged this, only to be told that if Newday could not accept the payment it would bounce back and then the AA would issue a cheque (this is apparently to comply with Money Laundering regs). This was around 10 weeks ago and to date I have not received any refund. Also I've had no help in tracing the money from either the AA or Newday Card Services. I've made numerous phone calls, sent lots of emails and even written to Newday. Apparently I now have to complain to the Financial Ombudsman. I have had loans from the AA in the past and previous car insurance policies. However, I will not be using their services again in the future.

Increased my husbands car insurance from £356. To £1370 after He made two no fault claims. 7 years no claims bonus. Won’t be renewing or using AA again 😡

This has to be the worse service firm I have ever used, first they give out 0845 numbers to use which cost if using a mobile. The insurance is a waste of time as never covers the full cost of the repair and will use every reason as to why not. They are totally inflexible and I very much regret renewing my policy with them. And if you try calling the complaints department they never answer just left waiting for ever.

Home insurance not car. Did not need to claim for anything. Best value when took out policy a year ago. Significant rise in cost this year so did not renew. Nothing negative to say but no need to test their systems and services so nothing specially positive either.

I have applied for car finance, approved online in minutes, then it took 3 days for the paperwork to get finalised, then when they were supposed to release money and dealership was waiting to deliver my car I was all of a sudden due to have a security call which never happened. I rang them several times, every time was told they will ring back. I have lost the car and then I cancelled my agreement with AA. After sending them an email that I am appalled with their service and that is an absolute waste of time, 2 min later I get an email back saying that they cancelled my car finance due to not being able to get in touch with me,what a joke!!! never again! stay away from them

This is about their so called 128 point check that comes with a Evans halshaw car. Basically there isn’t one- the 2017 plate car I purchased from them had faulty parking sensors, a non working 12v socket and a broken usb socket . The 127 point check clearly states all electrical ports and sockets . I deed to think what else hasn’t been checked.

Three times I've now tried to contact the complaints department: 1st @ 2nd time gave up after 20mins on hold Now sat waiting again (currently on 17mins and counting). How many people do you have working in this department - or do you just not like answering the phone. Come on AA I expected better!!!!

Found a nice shiny screw in one of my rear car tyres. Called the AA out from my app and Simon came all the way from Buxton to High Lane in 30 mins. Delightful chap. Friendly and helpful. I was able to drive away using my spare to the nearest garage in Great Moor. Definitely exceptional customer service.

Haggled for renewal costs,comparing to RAC (with no special joining discount) and got my cover upgraded for the same renewal fee.

Apparently The AA think it’s acceptable to leave a mother with 3 children stranded in a dark country lane miles from anywhere for 4 hours. My husband was 2 hours away and got to us quicker. It was very stressful and upsetting. The AA just couldn’t care less. I cancelled my cover after this appalling experience.

I have been a royal AA customer for many years and I have what I would term as a basic package - me in any car, basic Roadside Assistance outside the 1/4mile and Relay. All for a whopping £160+ a year. There is no loyalty required when and if as now I shall be shopping around for a cheaper alternative.
