Brilliant AA

Seamless no fault car insurance claim. 5 star service from start to finish - well impressed with handling of claim, repairs and hire car. You don’t know how good your insurer is until you need them! Glad I had AA - brilliant service.

Not what I expected

Can’t fault the AA’s part in the handling of my claim.
But, the distance and working hours of their authorised repairer and the car rental company’s call handlers, along with crossed communication, has resulted in a poor experience and low rating.

Hi Andrea, we’re sorry to hear that the repairer wasn’t local and that you had some issues with the rental car. We hope you’ve been able to share this feedback, and that the repairs themselves went smoothly in the end.

We’re really glad to hear that you felt your claim was handled well by our team 💛.

Hit from behind

I contacted the AA.
The young lady from the AA was polite, helpful and gave clear information concerning the plan going forward.

Everything was well organised and efficient.

Very happy with the AA’s organisation , the service from the repair garage and also the hired car company

We're so pleased to hear this, Gary. We know it's a stressful time, so it's great we were there to help ease the pressure.

Long wait times to speak to anyone

Long wait times to speak to anyone. Customer service good when finally through to a call handler.
Information was easy to understand and concise.
Courtesy car was less good and needs to be looked at to see which partners might offer a better service.
