Poor show obvious problem with vehicle very strong smell from underneath vehicle engine had cut out whilst driving and red warning triangle with engine restricted Agent couldn’t identify problem and said AA could not recover vehicle as nothing came up on diagnosing although it was obvious there was something wrong with the vehicle and could be dangerous to the driver as the vehicle had cut out when being driven

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.

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.

So the AA have emailed to notify me of an increase of £8.61/month (£103.32/year) while offering a 33% discount deal for new members!! Only time I've ever used them it took over 2 hours and the mechanic couldn't recognise the battery was faulty, local garage did that! Needless to say will not be renewing membership.

Unfortunately, my experience with this company was highly unsatisfactory. Despite assurances that my withdrawal was processed, no funds were received after more than a week. Only after escalating the issue and presenting evidence to Tony Jackson was I able to recover my profit. I advise others to exercise caution.

I would VERY strongly advise people NOT to take out an AA insurance policy. I have found them to employ deceptive practices which could prove disastrous for people and it certainly has caused me a lot of stress and anxiety. I asked them for a recording of the telephone call I made and they have not been able to provide it in a way that I can access it and have refused to provide it any other way. I have asked for a transcript and they told me it would take 28 days to arrive. All my insurance documentation has disappeared from the website as they have closed the account so I have been effectively left up the creek without a paddle.

Sunday just gone the aa eventually arrived to fix my car he told me the parts and fitting would cost 250 pounds which at the time i thought was ok But I then phoned my m8 and he told me I was conned so I went on line to check the prices for the parts and 1 part was around 55 pound and 40 for the plugs total around 100 pounds so been charged 250 pounds for 20 minit job I found unfair I phoned customer service to log my complaint and all I got told was I would receive a letter of apology so I then said I won't to cancel my contract

Just seen the new advert for the AA. The insinuation is very inappropriate and rude. I don't think this is called for. We are customers and have been for many years. I think we may go elsewhere in future

Subject: Disappointing Customer Service Experience My wife and I had tickets booked with American Airlines to the same destination, just one hour apart. We approached customer service to ask if one of us could switch flights so we could travel together, especially since both flights had empty seats. To our surprise and disappointment, we were told it was against policy — even though it would have made no difference to the airline and would have meant a lot to us as passengers. This rigid policy and lack of empathy left a very bad impression.

Very disappointed with the service today. They promised to send a replacement vehicle and despite repeated calls, they were unable to send any replacement even after six hours. I have given up on their service..

I was mis sold break down cover for my van so when I needed the AA I was forced to pay an additional £82 before they would attend. I took out cover for 3 vehicles over a year ago after a long discussion with the sales advisor , then when needing service was told I needed to upgrade.

Worst Breakdown Experience of My Life – Misled, Overcharged, and Left Stranded I broke down on the motorway at 5am after a night shift. I called AA for help and was left on the side of the motorway for nearly 3 hours in freezing cold, in a dangerous location, with high-speed cars shaking my vehicle. I was exhausted, scared, and freezing. I was forced to pay £150 for an “emergency call-out” on the spot—despite later being told by the recovery driver that this should not have been required upfront. I was then misled about the recovery plan: I was told I would get 15 miles free and just pay £4.50/mile after that. But when I got to Oxford services, AA told me I had to pay another £85 and increase my plan to be taken home—despite already being told otherwise. I was misinformed multiple times by different AA staff. I was then left waiting at the services for another 2 hours, even though my driver was ready to go. The delay was due to AA’s internal mismanagement—they hadn’t even entered my job into the system properly. The driver’s company (Cotswold Recovery) were incredible, but they were blocked by AA’s poor communication and system failure. I was 7 minutes from home, and they tried to force the driver to take me back to Oxford just so I could wait another hour for another AA driver. I finally got home at 12pm—7 hours after breaking down. I felt completely emotionally wrecked, misled, and financially drained. I paid over £200+ for a service that failed me at every step. AA put me in danger and treated me like a number, not a human being. I will be taking this further through a full complaint and legal process. I want a full refund and a formal apology.

Absolutely awful service. Had no idea that while letters come from AA, and you pay AA, they are responsible for nothing having passed everything to underwriters. And they change them. Often. Recommend finding an insurer who can actually deal with you and not keep passing you on to other companies.
