If you are thinking about taking up an AA policy with the £500 cover, think again. Don't do it! Not only will you be on the roadside, but you'll be arguing the toss with AA. They will worm out of paying for your repairs in any way they can. I am currently in such a situation. I have spent the last 5 days solid on the phone to AA and garages trying to get a breakdown resolved. I'm about to slash my wrists. Please, whatever you do, DO NOT use AA. What I'm saying is use them if you wish, but beware and be warned. They will do their utmost to wriggle out of their commitments. I have paid them several thousand pounds over the years. Now that I need to make a claim, they have literally told me to f++k off. I have cancelled my cover today. NOT WORTH THE PAPER IT'S WRITTEN ON!!!!
