“Had to use your services when rushing around due to a family death, I and the expert filled my car with the wrong fuel. You quickly sent an expert who sorted for me at the side of the road and gave full advice on a follow-up. That avoided further damage . So great full for the great service and the lower than expected price for the expert who saved me £100s with his knowledgeable advice. So great full for your great service. Just renewed again thank you”

“We've been insured with StartRescue for 8 or 10 years now. During that time we've only had reason to call for their support on one occasion - and that proved both timely and professional. In terms of annual renewal we have found their Customer Support both helpful and efficient. Thank you for the peace of mind.”

Hello Christine, Thank you for your feedback. Rewarding loyalty is something that is very important to us, and we do so for every Start Rescue customer by automatically including savings in your renewal quote, meaning that renewing customers will never pay more than our standard website retail prices. Similar to all businesses we have experienced unavoidable increases to our operating costs, but we are committed to providing the best possible service at an affordable price and have worked hard to ensure we only pass on minimal price increases to our customers. We are always happy to discuss the quotations customers are provided, to look to offer the best possible price. If we can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to get in touch. Our Customer Service Team are available via telephone on 01206 655000. Best Wishes, the Start Rescue Team

“I had to call Start when my car wouldn't start at a retail park. (One cell of the battery had failed). The process for calling assistance was easy and efficient, the agent arrived at the time he stated and sorted my problem quickly. Very satisfied with the service, I recommend Start Rescue to friends and family.”
