hi,

I'm about to renew my insurance i was offered national cover for 72 pounds with the RAC thought I'd call the AA to match it and I was told "we don't price match!"

How can i get a discount? The AA want 105. to give the lady credit she did say they'd match internet prices but no more.

I have searched online but to no avail.

Forget both and go with AutoAid instead - £37.50 for full cover.

They use local recovery services in the area - you pay them and claim the money back. Covers you and your spouse for any car driver or pasenger.

If you use the likes of Quidco you can normally get a decent amount of cashback on either AA or RAC.

What cover from the AA is that qoute for? AA basic cover is £28 and national relay on line is £69.
I'd always go for a national company, either the AA or RAC for peace of mind.

Not quite. You have to pay and then claim back, and in some instances there are limits.

Last year I got RAC roadside and recovery for 50p more than Autoaid would of cost.

This year I have the same cover with the AA on 2 cars for a shade over £42 once I get my cashback.

As someone said. AA this year. Rac next. Then repeat

You're not getting roadside, relay, home start, onward travel, etc for that price even with cashback though?
