Details

So, what is Personal Breakdown Cover?

There are two main types of Car Breakdown and Recovery policies; Vehicle Based and Personal Based Breakdown Cover. Personal breakdown cover is offered by AutoAid which means the driver is covered under the policy for whichever car they are legally driving at the time of needing Roadside Assistance.

By covering an individual, Personal Based Cover can mean that those who have access to more than one vehicle are able to capitalise, and perhaps save money, by having one policy protecting all the eligible vehicles that they drive. This means that members who perhaps own a classic car, or a motorbike, or whom access multiple cars within the same household can benefit from peace of mind knowing that their Autoaid membership covers them in all these vehicles.

Does Personal Cover suit me?

People have different needs but for those who have access to more than one vehicle, and who require Breakdown and Recovery Cover, AutoAid’s Personal Breakdown Cover may suit your needs best.

In addition to providing cover for an individual in any eligible vehicle, Autoaid also covers the policy holders legal partner in any eligible vehicle that he, or she covers also…for free!

Our extensive list of benefits for our Personal Cover Based service includes onwards travel, cover for vandalism, cover for towed caravans or trailers and even home start.

I did not receive cashback last time I signed up to Autoaid via topcashback, they for some reason withdrew from topcashback site all together and although transaction tracked just went to declined unwilling to settle payments for previous purchases.

So, Home Start is now 1/4 of a mile from your house? Was about to sign up and read their definition of Home Start, or am l missing something?

I have been with them a few years now and so have a few family members too with no complaints. They use local mechanics and have always had a prompt call out service. Went over to these after I was left in the cold for 6 hours by the AA. Would definitely recommend them

If you're uncertain whether TopCashback will pay out or just don't want to take the risk, then MoneySavingExpert is offering £6 automatic money back from AutoAid themselves if purchased using the following link:

Wow…they have become quite expensive, I got a year for £29 or so but that was two or three years ago so I guess everything is getting more expensive.

Been with Autoaid for a number of years without needing to use them until earlier this year
I live in the West Mids and we are travelling to Cornwall, i only got 40 mins away from home and my turbo went on my car so they picked me up and took us and the car to a garage of my choice.
A family relative said i could borrow his car to go away so i picked his car up and continued my journey. I got as far as Bristol and the engine management light came on so i rang Autoaid again and explained to them and they again recovered us back home.
I ended up hiring a car and drove to Cornwall the following day
I cannot fault Autoaid on the day and the service and the people i dealt with were all 1st class
I will have no problems renewing my cover with them in 2023

I took this out today after seeing it on the RAC deal, hopefully won't need it with 3yr old E300 cab but one tow off the motorway would pay for this! Mercedes assistance was rubbish with RAC, took ages when the roof wouldn't shut, all it needed was a fault clearing!

Wait five hours. Mercedes is(poo) I don’t want heard about that company anymore(Mercedes & RAC) that’s all me they can’t find my location. Even I have tracking GPS in my car.

Was with Autoaid for many years & a great deal it was when they were owned by Redstar insurance. But they were bought out by Right Choice Insurance Brokers & the new owners wanted to gouge more profit from the business & prices were cranked up.
AutoAssist is better for us nowadays. (edited)

Used to be the cheapest to get and one of the best but the more popular they have got the more expensive they are. Martin Lewis used to recommend these not sure if he still does

Been with Autoaid for a few years. Used to get RAC with Tesco Clubcard vouchers but stopped when Tesco drastically reduced the value of Clubcard vouchers. Never had need to call them out so can't comment on their service but even though prices have risen in recent years (used to be £49 year after year), it still seems to be the best cover for the money.

Just a vouch for this. Unreal cover and never any issues. Recovered twice in all the time had it and absolutely spot on.

Signed up for this with key cover too at only £6, tcb has tracked and confirmed but I havent received any emails from autoaid, seems odd, can login to the account and everything.

Can I let my current policy expire and buy a new one as they want £76.49 to renew.
kramvic Author
21st Dec 2022
Mine is still active, I then went to buy this deal and selected January for my start date so when 1 ends the other 1 starts. Make sure you log in to your existing policy and cancel the auto renew. Also remember topcashback@£16. (edited)

We were with AutoAid for 4 years until my daughter needed them as her car wouldnt start, they left her for over 3 hours at 5.30am in -6 degrees temp because they "thought" she was at home warm & dry when she wasnt, despite her telling them her whereabouts & them having her home address. When we complained she got £10 gesture of goodwill. Needless to say we are no longer with them.

Been insuring with Autoaid since 2011 and used their services many times, never had an problem. Company has changed hands since then premium has increased year on year. But still very good value as the premium covers spouse's vehicle too. (edited)

It is pretty good have used it once they use local contractors so it’s reasonably quicker then relying on dedicated patrols
