    AA! I can only sum-up this self-proclaiming company in one word! RUBBISH!!

    To take the first letter and use it to signify this rubbish establishment is an insult to the alphabet!

    The customer service is vile! Reading through previous statements here, I too have been through the rough with the AA and thank the Lord above, I've seen the light and I will no-longer be using this saliva-like company!!

    AA is a piece of rubbish. They sent me a letter saying I have 1 day to prove of my mum's no claims bonus. Every time I call customer service I get "number busy please call back later" Ive rang about 100 times now. I'm changing, this sucks. DO NOT USE

    Changed cars and rang the AA insurance to organize a cover note. It took ages and loas of options to get through. I was informed I wopuld get one first class post. It took 7 days to receive and it was for the wrong car! I rang and was informed another would be sent first class. Further question evealled thios woulsd be five days. I pointed out it would be quicker to pick the note up in person. I was left with the prospect of a new car possibly uninsured with no tax on the road for a week.I chan ...

    Watch Out - The AA Car Insurance are rubbish!! There was a time when I used to be proud to have their badge on my car. Now I would not even recommend them to my worst enemy! I bought car insurance for my dad on line - hit the submit button on form then found I had been charged 'admin fee' for credit card. Okay I thought that's normal. E-mail arrived cheerily saying 'your policy will be with you shortly' - yeah right! I PAID for the damned thing on the 3rd August!! I had to phone their fan ...

    Very poor. I have insured two motorcycles with the AA, previously at Bennetts. The AA switch was a big mistake. They send me letters saying sign the enclosed documents, but there's nothing in there to sign! Then they send letters asking for direct debit details even though I did them online. Then they write asking for proof of bonus even though I did this online and sent them my renewal notices. So a month in and no documents. It's actually a company called Directchoice you are insuring with, no ...

    It was not the cheapest quote but went with it as I though AA would be a good company. The papers came through and the excess was £300. Phoned and argued with the manager but they are taking advantage of some technical terms difference between voluntary excess and compulsory excess.
    Cancelled the policy even though I had to pay £ 35 as I don't want to be insured with cheaters.

    I insured online with AA Car Insurance last year at a cost of £130. To their credit, they did not try to automatically renew the policy as many other brokers do, but their renewal quote was £250, and this was before I had declared that I had a fine a 3 points for speeding. So I got quotes on line from £124 upwards, and the AA's quote was £136, but the next day when I retrieved my quotes this had mysteriously risen to £221. I emailed them for an explanation. They sai ...

    I recently took up insurance cover with the AA and had to make a minor change to policy - They charged 25 pound admin charge and were completely unwilling to budge and were totally unsympathetic I would not recommend them for good customer service. Hard to get on the phone too. I wrote htem a letter and we'll see how quickly they respond to that!!

    The AA insurance Service are very poor indeed. I took out a policy 18 months ago and tried to cancel it today, they have asked me to pay nearly three months of the policy value as a cancellation charge.

    AA Car Insurance customer service is shockingly bad. Called the Customer Services number to and was on hold for a good 20 mins, got through, only to be told that they could not deal with my call - they could only take numbers and organise for someone to call back as they 'wanted to answer calls quickly'!! Got call back, only to be put in another queue. Had to check some details and call them back and, guess what, another call in queue for another 20 mins. By this time, I was so hacked off I w ...

    Rubbish, cant really say any more than that. I was hit from behind over 6 weeks ago. I have now been advised that apparently the accident was my fault. Would not recommend or use AA Car Insurance again.

    being extremly accident prone, my insurance is very high anyway, but found the aa was the cheapest, ( £2.500) full comp, and the highest excess u can get, i thought i was covered, oh what a shame, that wasnt true, having had three accidents in three years, all not my fault, not once did i get my courstey car, and i found i had to fill out 4 forms to each company, the aa, the axa, because the aa lost the forms! and kept demanding higher and higher "premiums", every time i claim, thats not ...

    Really rubbish customer service. Although the cost of the insurance was cheaper than other qoutes, which is why I accepted it, the value for money in relation to customer service is very poor. After having taken out my AA policy onlyf ourdays ago, I am cancelling it!

    The AA Car Insurance price was good but a month on and still i have not had my documents which is a real pain as I need them to tax the car , endless waiting on the phone to no avail still no documents and still a month later I can not use the car for no tax !
    A waste of time and Money as as it stands now I have paid for 12 months and not been able to drive it yet.
    If you want cheap insurance thats exactley what you get along with bad service no communication

    I called AA Car Insurance to ask why they are chasing for payment when I cancelled my policy back in February. I was told my policy was cancelled .. for my Ford Fiesta, when I told them I've never owned a Ford Fiesta .. they said my insurance wasn't cancelled and that is why they are chasing for payment. So what happend about the person with the Ford Fiesta, do they think they have a valid policy.
    54 mins on hold between departments

    Of all the call centres I have had to ring the AA is by far the worse. I tried to ring on Saturday to add my son to my insurance. I had to sit through the sales pitch then was cut off. I tried a second number. Sat through the sales pitch, then was cut off. Tried a third number, sat through the sales pitch then was put on hold, with a reassurance every few minutes that I would be dealt with very soon now. I stuck it out for three quarters of an hour as I didn't want to waste the phone call but ha ...

    All in all a good service with the company. When I phone for a query to my policy the staff are always quick to advise me correctly, even though they do try and sell a few things on the call, this is to be expected these days. From reading other comments I get the general impression that most of the negative comments are from people who do not fully understand insurance and seem angry through their own ignorance! I've always had the opinion that with something as important as car insurance it is ...

    We did not intend to make a claim on insurance but when we 'phoned for breakdown assistance were told we were not covered and the operator contacted Zurich, the company the AA had insured us with. We have had nothing but problems with the claim. Both the AA and Zurich will only supply us with 0870 numbers. The AA told us we should deal with Zurich. When we 'phoned Zurich their operator told us we had to deal with the AA as they were the brokers. The AA told us we had been misinformed by Zurich. ...
