Car breakdown cover
Breakdown cover for less than £5 per month
Unfortunately, breakdowns can happen. With our car breakdown cover it's comforting to know that whatever happens, help is less than an hour away or we'll give you £10 to say sorry for being late.
We have teamed up with AXA Assistance to offer 24/7, 365 days a year car breakdown cover for just £59 a year (£4.92 a month) with no call out charges. With this cover, if you breakdown at home or when you’re away from home, with one quick call to our UK call centres, assistance is never far away. Plus, because we get to over half of breakdown call-outs within 40 minutes, you can rest assured we won’t keep you waiting for long.
Our optional breakdown cover is a full Europe-wide rescue and recovery service for breakdown and accidents, so there’s no need to arrange any additional cover.
