“"I once this year called the AA and waited only 10 minutes. The failure was quickly diagnosed and repaired. In the past I have always had excellent service from them. "”

“Excellent, could not fault them. Flat battery at home, up dated me when they will be out, came within a few minutes of their quoted arrival time, checked battery which was faulty, due to time of day did not have battery on board which was understandable. I went online and booked a slot the following morning, received message saying they are on way, came middle of my booking slot, battery fitted and I’m up and running. Both guys who worked on my vehicle Jason and Luke were amazing, just chatted to them while they completed the work, both guys are a credit to your service, thank so much 😁”

“The WORST customer experience ever!!! I have been flying American Airlines, since they have a hub in Jacksonville, FL, however today was the worst customer experience and disrespect by the gate agents. I was flying from DFW to JAX on 8/4/2022 on the 3:56 pm flight and the plane had to go back to the gate due to engine trouble. We were allowed to deplane, if we stayed close. When I got off the plane, the gate agent (gate A10) was very rude and if looks could kill, I would be dead. I called the American Airlines 800# to change my flight. When I went to the new gate (C7) where my new flight was departing, I asked the gate agents a simple question... I had to wait about 5 minutes before anyone would event acknowledge me, so I proceeded to just ask - "where is the ticketing agent on this floor" and I received a very rude response of outside security. It's no wonder why American Airline customer reviews are so low. I am a Certified Customer Experience Professional and this by far is the worst experience I've ever had. This airline needs some CX training as well as empathy training.”

“I used my parts and garage cover to have my steering rack replaced at an aa garage. A week later I was still hearing noises and banging from car. Called aa back out and patrol told me there was nothing wrong with my car and that I was being paranoid and to "turn the radio up and stop listening for noises" I wasn't happy so took the car to an independent garage who told me my steering rack wasn't bolted in properly. The mechanic actually showed me how he could move the rack from under the car with his FINGER. It could have caused a serious accident. Complained a month ago and heard nothing since. To say I'm furious is an understatement, I have three young children that I have in my car daily.”

“Really bad service, I rung them around 6:30 and they said that the recovery would take 5 hours. Is this a joke? It's not the first time this has happened, last time it also took around 4-5 hours, and when help arrived the employee didn't have a clue what he was doing. Seriously think about your customer service because it's really not cutting it. People have lives and they can't just sit around waiting for help all day. Would not recommend. Terrible.”

“Agree to the random add-ons they suggest when you try to take out an insurance, and then they would find millions of ways to pick out random words from their fine-print to reject your claims or deny support. Worst of all, they will try to paint you as a fraud suggesting various ways you could be submitting false claims! As if customers can inflict self-harm and go through a tragedy on purpose to claim a small part of their losses! Stay away from such a company - when you run a business which you yourself cannot trust, no wonder you cannot trust your customers either!”

“My patrolman Paul who attended my breakdown was excellent and nothing was too much trouble for him. He got my car running and explained the reason for the breakdown. Also recommended further repairs to get my car back to normal.”

“Still waiting since 9:15pm for the AA. Heavily pregnant which i informed them off. They are saying I have to wait almost 4 hours with swollen feet and a baby that can pop out anytime. Worst service ever, total disregard for human life, especially after telling them I am stuck on s round about and my feet are too swollen for me to keep standing on the side. Total disregard. Don't bother joining, better try a different service”

“AVOID THE AA IF YOU WANT TO RETAIN YOUR SANITY. I had an emergency breakdown on the motor - fire brigade out, police out, children in car. Long story short after multiple phone calls to try to get rescued by the AA I got nowhere. The AA kept me on hold for over 3 hours, cut me off twice, and then simply did not answer the phone I was in a dangerous place on the motorway and needed to get to a safe place (police advice) so I sorted my own recovery with another company. This cost me a lot of money. I complained to the AA. This too take ages to do and massively hard to find out how. When I got an email address, they eventually emailed to say they will reply in 8 WEEKS to my complaint. Eh? In this day and age that is beyond unbelievable POOR customer experience but the worst part - as far as the AA are concerned I am still broken down as I have had no call to sort my emergency. Today I rang to cancel my policy and ask for a refund of this years premium and.....again I cant get through on the phone - i am 'please holding' for the past 2 hours. You could not make this up. If you want to avoid wasting time, money and heartache then I personally recommend you avoid the AA like the plague. I have paid them 1000s over the years I have been a loyal customer for over 6 years but enough is enough. When you need AA help, they AA not there for you. Avoid.”

“I recently broke down at the side of a busy dual carriageway. I called to join AA at a cost of £150, and I was told someone would be with me in one hour. With 10% charge on my phone I was limited with being able to check on updates. After 2 hours I called back to say I was still alone, stranded and in a dangerous position. I was the told that the job was not assigned ye, being alone and female didn’t matter and they were still calling local garages for mechanics (I could done this myself and saved a lot of time, money and hassle) I advised that given the oil from my car was now all on the road underneath my vehicle there was no way it could be driven and I would need towed. This made no difference they still insisted on sending a mechanic to confirm my theory. Estimated time for someone to get to me was 6 hours! When a mechanic finally arrived he told me I would need towed as the car was not drivable and he would have to call it through to AA for authorisation, with the AA then charging a further £4.50 per mile to get to my home address!!! Do not use the services of the AA. They take your money and leave you stranded. The customer service is shocking, and being classed as ‘Priority’ clearly means nothing. They should be ashamed of themselves. At least highway robbers had the decency to wear masks, these lot come with flashing lights!!!”

“Had a recent flight from Raleigh,NC to Providence,RI to attend a wedding. Connecting flight out of Charlotte. Got stranded in Charlotte—-flight was cancelled after more than 2.5 hour delay because there was NO PILOT! Lost the expense of the hotel I paid for in RI—-had to pay out of pocket for hotel in Charlotte because the voucher we received for contracted hotel did not work—-the hotel never answered the phone! Missed pre wedding party and attended actual event on 4 hours sleep. Rude gate attendants in Charlotte—-inadequate staffing to get a voucher(more than a city block long )and only one person working the customer assistance line. Had 6 flights with AA during a 48 hour period and only 1 flight on time. Emailed the CEO of AA,Robert Isom—-no compensation to be provided for lost hotel expense; will provide reimbursement of amount they have for voucher even though my cost 275.00. Mr Isom supposed to be turning AA around—-my experience indicates it has not happened. If you don’t want to arrive at your destination on time;want to lose $$ on hotels;hang around for hours in airports waiting to go standby and then not—-please fly AA. If you want to be treated respectfully by everyone from CEO to gate agent—-fly any other airline.”
