Green Flag or AA or RAC

Had my monies worth out of Green flag to returns after breakdowns only waited 3/4 hour both occasions, three fixes at the side of the road, so Mayday all the time

We have had to use Mayday and they were excellent at returning both our car (which had broken down) and also our 'van. We were returned in our car and our 'van followed separately another day, having been collected from the site where we were staying at when our car broke down 20 miles away. Good liaison between Green Flag and the site meant we did not have to wait around on site. Would not use anyone else and really good value as covers both our cars anywhere (in UK).

RAC / ADAC for Europe for get the rest, waste of money

Mayday gives better cover than the standard from all other providers I have seen except the RAC scheme through the C&CC but that costs far more. Stick with Mayday unless you are going abroad when the RAC offering might be worth looking at.

Thanks for the replies. I've used Mayday since the get go.  I was even persuaded to sign up for automatic renewal (for a £35 M&S voucher, which they never sent, in the end).  I just wondered if there was better value for money to be had than the £70 I will soon need to pay.

I insist on having all my insurances on automatic renewal including Mayday. I can always review the renewal quote anyway but should I be in hospital at renewal or away in the caravan etc I know that I will be insured.

My renewal with RAC has just come up. Slightly shocked to discover that they define a caravan as not exceeding 7 metres overall, and as our is 7.2 seems an issue. Considering Green Flag, as the policy seems to have good terms, but then I googled reviews and frankly they're nothing short of horrendous, trust pilot scoring for example is only 4.7 out of ten. I know these review sites can be somewhat unreliable, but unless there's some sort of concerted campaign against Green Flag, it's to say the least very disconcerting. Don't know what to think now, and left slightly wondering about this being an approved club supplier...

I am a Mayday member which has some bonuses for a caravanner especially over Green Flag

In the last 8 years I have called out Green Flag as a Mayday member on 6 occasions I think. One was for an 8 hour recovery Journey. 

Intercooler blowing - 8 years ago. Recovered from Fort William to Chester.

Stone caused a pin hole leak in power steering cooling pipe. Car taken to local garage when part was in.

Puncture.

Needed them to check brakes as I cannot see close up too well. Chip out of disc Christmas eve. Their driver made a phone call and arranged for me to take the car to a local garage first day after boxing day.

Flat battery as left lights on.

Coil spring snapped and ripped tyre. Recovered home and then car picked up at my convenience and taken to local garage when I had organised a repair. 

All were there within 30 mins except flat battery when it was an hour and I received a refund. I was not too worried as I was 100 yards away in a pub with a coffee whilst waiting. These happened, Fort William area Scotland, Flintshire in Wales, Southport, Wirral and on site at Sandringham.

When we were recovered with intercooler problem enginner took 20 mins to arrive and had to wait 30 mins for recovery vehicle.

Oh, forgot, welded bracket failed on exhaust. Greenflag chap re affixed dropped pipe and wired up to replace failed bracket using some wire I purchased from a garden centre so that I could complete journey rather than be recovered and taken later, if needed, to my local exhaust centre. Again response time was good.

OK, I have had my moneys worth but have also got no complaints

Sorry but for the cover you get the £70 is a bargain. Trying to save on what is probably the best break down service for caravans could easily be false and I for one would not go anywhere except the clubs Mayday. The C&CC, RAC cover is basically the same but far more expensive.

I have had two annual bad experiences with Mayday/Green Flag, both resulting in apologies and compensation, but not enough for a ruined holiday.

I have issues with The Club's endorsement, as I believe that Mayday does not give the full peace of mind that their Mayday service should provide for the average member.

I am also surprised to find that some members only pay £70, my renewal is £103.50.
