After a car ran into the back of mine…

After a car ran into the back of mine whilst the driver was looking at their phone. The online reporting was simple and the claim was handled fast. Great service from the repairer and the replacement car company.

It was only a small bump...

Using AA accident Assist made my claim easy and straightforward from start to finish, my claim was handled to my satisfaction, using their recommended repairers and hire car company made the process that much easier. I'm sure it helped that the other driver admitted it was their fault.

I cannot praise the kindness of the driver enough

I wanted to leave this review as the absolutely amazing gentleman who turned up to rescue me on saturday completely restored my faith in humanity. I normally panic when anything goes wrong with my car and my clutch burnt out on a dangerous narrow main road on saturday. I am an older lady and this wonderful young man completely set my mind at rest. Nothing was too much trouble for him. He was kind, patient, friendly and empathic and went above and beyond for me taking me home and then taking my car to Halfords Autocentre Bridgend. He didnt rush me and waited calmly while I tried to find a garage that was open that would be able to fix my car. I think his name was Pablo according to the AA helpline whom I called to thank today. If only all people were as pure of heart as this lovely young man then the world would be a better place. Thank you so much for being there for me

Awful experience after my car was…

Awful experience after my car was repaired - when we had an accident that wasn’t our fault.
Treated like criminals when we did everything right!
I didn’t believe what people said about insurance companies when you have a claim - i do now!!!

Hi there, we’re sorry to see you’ve been left to feel this way. If the accident wasn’t your fault, your claim is with the at-fault driver’s insurer. Our teams will handle that on your behalf to cover any losses or costs, and will need as much information as possible. Please get in touch directly if there is anything we can help with or if you have any questions.
