If you are not sure yet, here are some excellent reasons why it is better to be safe than sorry when it comes to breakdown cover.

It pays to have Roadside Assistance Cover before you travel 

If you break down without Roadside Assistance Cover, an emergency call out to get you back on the road will likely be expensive and you could be in for a long and uncomfortable wait. Save money and a lot of stress by having your breakdown cover organised before you go. 

Even if you manage to organise the repair reasonably quickly, it may be hours or even overnight for the work to be carried out which means unforeseen costs to make alternative arrangements for travel or accommodation.

Our cover includes Emergency Accommodation. That is up to £150 for a lone traveller or £75 per person towards the reasonable cost of overnight accommodation. The maximum amount covered is £500.

You may need to return to collect the repaired vehicle

With our Roadside Assistance Cover you are covered for alternative travel to your original destination should you need it while you wait for your vehicle to be repaired. Our policy pays up to £250 towards the reasonable cost of alternative transport, including a hire vehicle up to 1600cc. Furthermore, there is up to £150 cover for the driver to collect the original vehicle once it has been repaired. This could make a huge difference to your holiday, especially if you are travelling with children. With Roadside Assistance Cover you can continue your holiday as planned with minimal disruption.

Breakdowns are common
