I have been with Start Rescue for a number of years now. It is hands down the best breakdown cover I have purchased. The price, customer service, and speed and efficiency of the call outs when needed have all been first rate. Highly recommend

Really excellent company tbh - great unlimited call outs and great bods in person or on phone. And ace prices too - plus loyalty reductions etc - 5 out of 5 (I don't know if it worked when I clicked on the 5 stars above!). Cheers

Have been lucky enough not to have used for call out in the 3 years have been a customer. The price is reasonable and easy to renew on line.

My car had a fault, and I had difficulty reversing on my drive. I called Start Rescue to transport my car to my local garage.

My query related to the 3 star cover was efficiently dealt with by the team. My initial confusion was caused by the way the information was presented on the website.

Had no need to use breakdown cover, but to have peace of mind especially for my wife this cover is great. Love the regular magazine updates. These cover security, seasonal care and attention to car.

Hello Gary, Thank you for your feedback. We took the step last year to be more transparent to customers, with regards to the fees that we apply to policies. The arrangement and administration fee is for administering your policy and handling breakdown claims, instead of, or in addition to receiving commission from the insurer. We collect our fee within the same transaction, as we used to, but now detail our fee within the breakdown of the price you will pay. This is part of our remuneration and does not affect the price you pay. Best Wishes, the Start Rescue Team

Car battery went flat and I couldn't start the car when in the Sainsburys car park. Help arrived within approx half an hour (maybe less). Generator tested and found to be ok. Car started and new battery bought next day. Problem solved.

I was happy to renew my rescue service as the price had only increased by a nominal amount and was automatically renewed. Hopefully I won't be seeing any of your breakdown people in the near (or far) future. Look forward to hearing from you next renewal time. Many thanks.

Only had one breakdown few years back. Dealt with ok. There app no good to us as we only have a basic phone Pensioners. Always renew online yearly. Seems straight fordward, odd hiccup. Prices lower than most, so give it a try.
