Autoaid I have been with them for 10 yrs cover you and spouse for any car you drive.
I have used them several times, they are very good and only 58 quid.
Don’t bother with other rip off merchants
Home start, recovery to repair place, recovery home or to destination, hire car, accomodation. 6 calls a year which can be upgraded to unlimited for more money. I have used them for home start when I had CCCU trouble and the guy who attended says he does calls for all the breakdown companies, even AA and RAC when they are busy!
Brittania have gone really down hill, some of the sub-contractors they use are appalling. I had to get recovered about 2 years ago the first subcontractor they sent out couldn't fix it at the roadside and then refused to take me to my destination, but transported me another 5 miles to the next service station where another subcontractor (different company) would take me to my destination. I waited over an hour for the first subcontractor to come out and then had to wait a further 40 minutes for the 2nd subcontractor to turn up. The basically as a company couldn't run a bath. Prior to this about a year earlier the alternator failed on the wifes car and the guy got me on the recovery truck and then asked where I wanted to go at 1am in the morning when I said Southampton he refused and unloaded the car and told me I had to ring the contact centre again. I reported this but was told there was nothing they could do about this but they would get someone else out to me to take me.Asda 5 star defacto rated, supplied via brittania which is part of LV i think was £78 last time i got it but have never called them so dont know how they respond in fairness
Blimey!! Will avoid them then!! Wonder if they are still 5 star?Brittania have gone really down hill, some of the sub-contractors they use are appalling.

I'm now with Autoaid, have been for the last 2 years, called them out on a couple of occasions they have sent competent mechanics each time who have diagnosed the fault quickly and where possible provided a temporary repair to enable me to complete my journey or get to the garage under my own steam so to speak, each occasion they have followed me to make sure I have got there rather than having to load and unload the car. Can't fault them at all
Just reminded me to renew my breakdown cover. Used Auto Aid before and again now. £75 as there is a tick box for cars over 15 years old which adds to the cost.
Hi Im there too if you go via quidco there is a decent kick back at some point in the future . They did not have the vehicle age bar that lots of the insurers hadI've just renewed today with Emergency Assist for £34.50. Home Start, Recovery local/to destination, Hire Car, Accomodation etc. Limited to 6 callouts per year.
Also with AutoAid they are cheap and cover the owner not the car also they offer partner cover for spouse etc freeI would look at auto aid also
I had that & moved over to Green Flag.As in the title.
Been with the AA for around 5 years now, gold cover.
Just had the renewal letter, £325 per year, owch.
Any recommendations guys.
