AA Renewal

Post by tr7v8 »

Just had my AA renewal through as it's on DD. Cost is £144 which is roadside & homestart + Complimentary Stay Mobile because I've been with them since 1987.
Just phoned them & they offered 15% discount on TiPEC but then increased that to 20% without me asking so now £115.28 :mrgreen:

They also offered a yearly breakdown cover for the Pork for £85ish which covers five claims of up to £500 each with £25 excess, this is on a car that's 1987 & 140K! The car has to be garage serviced which mine isn't so I declined but maybe useful for someone out there!

i thougt AA cover was for the person (not their car) so how come they want to charge extra for your "old" car ??


i get AA cover free with my Bank account and they have never questioned what cars we drive or where they are parked.

No I still get covered, what they are offering is a "warranty" on problems with my only non-warranteed car which in my case is the 944.
That's what the quote is for, in other words the 944 breaks, I call out the AA & they can't fix it at the side of the road, they thenpay (some) of the garage bill to fix it.

Me too :D It's Lloyds. Worth it for the world wide travel insurance alone. (AA & mobile phone insurance + other goodies.) £6 a month. Hard to beat. One day they might change it & ask what you drive. But not so far :) Makes a lot of sense with a 22 year old car.
944 lux, Eco car. Off the road more than it's on!
Audi 2.0 TDI Good but rather boring..........
944 now sold.

They seem to be happy to cover anything providing it was "properly" maintained e.g. by a garage.

Me three. I've had my Lloyds account for thirteen years already, so the introduction of the AA membership was a nice bonus. It’s only the most basic of cover but for free it’s pretty unbeatable.
