Have been with StartRescue for few years now and have had to call them out several times, once on Christmas day. Never had to wait long and they have been able to sort us out by repair at roadside or getting the vehicle to our garage. The price each year as increased but compared to other companies so far been cheaper with the renewal discount for the same cover.

We broke down this year. Start were brilliant, responsive and repeated messages/chasing up of the mechanic as we had a bit of a wait, being in a safe place. Recommend++

Have been with Start Rescue for a few years now, always been prompt and helpful when I have broken down. Have not had to call them for a while, but have confidence that they will attend quickly when (if!) I do.

I have been a customer for just over 10 consecutive years and whilst never havign had to claim I have been able to a get clear and easy to renewal process and policy documentation/wording. The prices quotes are fair for the cover provided and some of the best in the breakdown cover market.

Excellent service from Car Rescue! Called them during a breakdown on the M3 late at night, and they arrived within 45 minutes. The technician was professional, friendly, and got my car running quickly without hassle. Highly recommend for reliable roadside assistance—peace of mind for busy professionals like me.

Easy to get in touch with. Great app. Have come out quickly whenever I've had an issue with a car. The people who came out to look at the car have always been helpful, polite and know what they're doing.

After careful consideration and family recommendation, we chose Start Rescue as our personal cover, the representative Michael that helped us with our decision was a beautiful being, calm, patient and informative, at this moment in time I would not hesitate to recommend Start Rescue, be safe, be kind always 👍👍

This is my third year with Start. A call out was needed during the first year and the service was excellent from the initial call, short waiting time, friendly experienced breakdown recovery driver. Journey to garage near home. Not needed during second year but on renewed day today I needed to call to request help with a burst tyre. I struggled a little with the app so switched to phone which was answered immediately. A polite helpful assistant was just talking me through the process when my son in law arrived to pick up my grandson. When he realised that I had a skinny emergency wheel he immediately set to change the wheel for me so I was able to stop the call out which was proceeding well but then not needed. However it reassured me that I had made the right choice in maintaining my cover with you.

Renewed my cover dropping main car to 3 star from 5 ... Very bad service. No notice of renewal. Just did it. Breaking TCF and regulatory customer service.

Hello Anthony, We're sorry to hear your comments. If your vehicle was on 5 Star and has been offered 3 Star this is most likely due to your vehicle entering a different age bracket and Start Rescue no longer being able to offer European cover for the vehicle. We can confirm that we sent renewal reminders via email and SMS to you via your provided contact details prior to the renewal date. The email reminders would have clarified that we were offering the equivalent level of cover excluding the European cover we are no longer able to offer and the options available to you. If you wish to discuss your renewal quote, please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service Team. Best wishes, the Start Rescue Team

Great cover. Very competitive pricing. Easy to change vehicle details on website. Also premiums don't go up on renewal. Lovely to be rewarded for loyalty for a change.

Excellent service every time, even when the problem seemed to sort itself. The mechanic would investigate to make sure the problem didn't recure. Renewing my policy was never in question.
