Horrendous company. You will never able to contact any real person from the company. Unless you got at hour for waiting. If you are willing to cancel your policy that will be more even harder. And be careful they will auto renew your policy without any notice.

Used to be actually answering calls now they ignore the breakdown call for twelve and a half hours then pick up and put down Terrible imagine waiting at the side of a motorway with no hard shoulder and this Then they turn up hours and hours after they had promised or not at all I maintain my car exceptionally well ie pat the garages huge amounts for service and repairs but I unfortunately live in a place where the garages are the pits and I don't mean the work outs that the mechanic stands in Honesty the service seems to be failing at the call centre end because they are guessed it working from home.Try phoning then if you have at least twelve hours on your hands and are situated near a phone charging point and you will see what I refer to More than likely the customer service team are being paid but are not even present at their home awaiting the phone call Terrible experience

have been with the AA for 11 years and it hurts me to proceed with cancellation, but it was the only option I had, Last year I was paying 11.99 per month for roadside assistance and parts and labour which I never used, I know the price seems to good to be true , but it was something that the agent offered me , (I would of taken the offer at 16 pounds )reason for such high price was because I called patrol out 3 times in the past 2 years, that is what I was told by the renewal agent Anyway reason why I have given 1 star is that I was emailed my renewal and went into my spam folder so I did not check, I also was not aware that an auto renewal was in place, ( unfortunately unlike the RAC where you can opt out of auto renewal on a monthly payment basis you cannot with the AA),so without my knowledge and consent the AA took out 37 pounds, and when I spoke to the renewal team the best price they can come up with is 28 pounds per month, and the renewal team where quite firm with that price( I am also on the gold card membership not sure if that affects the price in anyway), this happens to me every year upon renewal, rather then going around in circles and haggling I have cancelled

This review is regarding customer service and not the mobile technicialsn who I have always found to be very good. While trying to make a chnage to my policy I spent over an 90 minutes going round in circles withe diffrent agents. In the end I decided to cancel my policy and go elsewhere.

If I could give -1000 stars, I honestly think it still wouldn’t scratch the surface. I booked an appointment on the oh-so-reliable AA Smart Care website for today, 26/08, to get my rear pads replaced. Smooth booking experience, even gave me a lovely time slot between 8 and 12. I thought, wow, organised! Silly me. So I waited. And waited. And waited some more. Then, being the wildly patient and trusting person I am, I finally called—because surely something minor had happened, right? Well, plot twist: they cancelled the booking without telling me. Why? Overbooking. Because apparently, in 2025, it’s still acceptable to sell services you can’t provide. Not even a text. Not an email. Not a pigeon. Nothing. No reschedule. No courtesy. Just a casual “We’ll refund you in 2 working days. You’re on your own until then.” And again, I had to call them to find this out. I’m almost tempted to let it go and see if they’d ever bother to tell me at all. Maybe in 2040? AA, you're not just a breakdown service. You are the breakdown. This was my magical journey with AA Smart Care. Would recommend to absolutely no one.

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.
