Not yet been in need of service but can't fault customer services at renewal time or when adding a vehicle.

Having been with Start rescue for many years, and without making a single breakdown claim during this period. I can only speak in terms of its user friendly online joining, competitive prices and ongoing administration stuff etc. And would recommend others to join. Bearing in mind, this review is not on the actual breakdown service, which I never used to date. Hopefully, however should that happen, and it lives up to it. Then it gets a 5*.

Need a sticker or card to keep in car so we know what number to call in the event of breakdown.

Hi Lawrence, I am sorry to hear your concerns. I can confirm that a Start Rescue sticker and card has been sent to you via post and should arrive in the upcoming days. Alternatively, Start Rescue has an app that is free to download on both the app store and Google Play store that you can use to request assistance. Best Wishes, the Start Rescue team

Called out when car would not start at home. After many attempts by driver to start, he finally diagnosed starter motor problem. Towed vehicle away and new battery was fitted.

I have only used start rescue once, I had a flat tyre and could not change it myself so I called Start Rescue, they were out within half an hour, and got the job done quickly by a very polite young man.

The quotation process and the cover packages are comprehensive and straightforward, having an online account to manage documentation etc is very useful.

Have previously been with other rescue services but their price had gone through the roof. Start Rescue offered the same levek of cover for a lot less and have some great reviews so thought I'd give them a go. Haven't had to call them out yet (thankfully) but the sign up was easy and the response quick and clear so all good so far.

This will be my second year as a customer of StartRescue and although I have been fortunate enough not to have needed their help. I have however found many people who have and have posted their experience on YouTube and they seem to have impressed with their response times and service. I have been able to tailor my needs within the pricing structure so I am very happy to be able to have the reassurance should the worse happen.

Fortunately, I have only had to use the service once since joining, and everything went extremely well. I have been with Start Rescue for quite a few years, and never have any doubts about renewing my policy every year.

Great service. Had a rear wheel puncture riding my motorbike far from home. Contacted Startrescue via the app on my phone and the breakdown lorry arrived within 15 minutes. I was taken to my home address together with the bike without delay. Many thanks Startrescue.

Always helpful and pleasant and help arrives quickly. I've only had reason for a call out about 3 times, over a few year period but have never had any problems. The price is very reasonable, compared to some, so that is a bonus, as running a car is expensive enough without extortionate fees. Well done Start-Rescue.

I expect Service to be good, which it has been so far. Almost every service or purchase in today's world asks fo a review. If all were answered it would take a substantial period of time EVERY day . . .

I cannot fault the service following an accident on my motorcycle which rendered the bike in need of relay home. Overnight accommodation was arranged and I was reimbursed within 5 days.

After a not-at-fault accident I had to buy another car. This also entailed advising StartRescue for a small fee. System apparently would not effect the required change and it took a few days to rectify things. Eventually, after several phone calls, a lovely and most helpful lady was able to cancel my old policy and issue a reolacement policy. Poor girl was so apologetic but is was a system hiccup and everything was finally sorted out. Have had to call on StartRescue's help a few times over the years and they have been excellent. Much better value than two of the long-established breakdown companies!

Great price on Breakdown Cover and if you do need to ring them they always answer quickly, are helpful and speak clearly.
