What a debacle! How I rue the day I switched to AA Motor Insurance! A few weeks after I signed up to AA, a man in a van decided to switch lanes and hit me from the rear driver’s side and travel along the side of my car, culminating in smashing my front mirror off. He pulled over and was absolutely lovely, as he clearly knew what had happened. It was, unfortunately, a company van, and the company refused to accept liability - as far as I know!
This was a cut and dried case of someone changing lanes without checking properly, and ramming into a vehicle already on the inside lane.
I have had to attempt to wring any information I needed out of the AA, and it has been akin to getting blood from a stone. Every single step of the way has been absolutely torturous, with the case (as far as I know, because nobody will answer me!) remaining unresolved. They have not even responded to my formal complaint of their handling of the case, other than sending a standard acknowledgment. Even the repair company they sent me to was dreadful (Alton Cars), with me losing about five days in total waiting for them to turn up when they said they would, which they very rarely did.
Next stop - Ombudsman. I am absolutely disgusted with the AA, who have very happily let me fork out £350 in excess fees because somebody else ran into my car, without ever voluntarily providing any information whatsoever.
I most certainly do NOT recommend this insurance company. This is the first claim I have ever made in over 40 years of driving without causing so much as a scratch to another vehicle, and I expect much, much better.
UPDATE:
I see AA have sent a standard reply to my review without addressing any of the issues I mentioned.
This incident happened in early December 2025, was completely straight forward, and should have been resolved a long time ago. Instead, as I said, not ONCE have they voluntarily informed me what was going on, and I think have only replied to one of my questions after much prompting.
In addition, it has now been over eight weeks since I made my complaint, and I have heard absolutely nothing, which is why I am now referring to the Ombudsman.
AA - when you add your insipid responses to these reviews, make sure you actually read what has been written first, look at the case file, then reply accordingly. Your response to my review has only served to cement my disgust in you.
