The AA Breakdown Cover


The AA can date its history back to 1905 when a group of twenty-nine motoring buffs first joined together in a bid to help motorists avoid speed traps. Working only at weekends to begin with, members would cycle around warning motorists of any possible dangers as well as helping broken down vehicles. By 1914 the membership had grown to 83,000 people. In 1949, The AA launched the Night-time Breakdown Service in Lond, and gradually expanded to the rest of the country. In 1967 The AA started their own Insurance Service and have since expanded into a number of markets including a variety of insurance products, finance, vehicle and hotel inspections and many more.

The AA offer Defaqto five star rated car insurance and they claim 30% of customers pay less than £195 for comprehensive car insurance. As standard they include named driver no claims bonus and also have an uninsured driver promise meaning you won't lose you no claims bous should you be hit by an uninsured driver. The AA also offer free breakdown cover for a year for new customers.

The AA car insurance also covers your car if it's used in a car sharing scheme. You can also drive abroad in the EU for up to 90 days. Comprehensive cover also includes a huge range of extras listed below:

  • Named driver no claims bonus
  • Uninsured driver promise

The AA also offer telemetrics insurance meaning safe drivers can recieve a discount up front and then earn additional money off of your premiums by driving safely during the course of the policy. Telemetrics works by installing a small device on your car which monitors your driving using GPS. Of course you may also find that your policy increases if your driving style does not match what is expected for this type of policy.

If you're an AA member you cn also benefit from additional levels of cover for personal belongings, medical expenses or personal injury cover.
