About TMO - The Motoring Organisation

Written by the company

The Motoring Organisation (TMO) has been part of the UK’s motoring story for over 50 years. With a legacy built on introducing extended warranties to the UK in the 1970s and continuing ever since to bring protection, support, and peace of mind to drivers, dealers and partners alike.

Over the decades, we have worked closely with many of the UK’s most trusted names and businesses:

• The AA
• RAC
• Vehicle manufacturers
• National dealer groups
• Major vehicle businesses

These partnerships have helped shape our expertise in warranty product development, claims administration, and dealer operations.

In 2020, we launched “The Motoring Organisation” as an independent brand, rooted in the experience we’ve accrued over decades. From that point, we set out to do things differently — to offer Aftercare that is smart, reliable, and customer-focused.

Our flagship Aftercare product is built to delivery what customers really need. We take the burden off drivers and dealers, helping protect against rising costs, uncertainties, and the unexpected.

We pride ourselves on:

• Great Service
• Transparency
• Integrity

As the UK’s #1 Trading Standards Approved Aftercare provider, our mission is to ensure every interaction is clear, supportive, and puts the customer first.

At TMO, we’re not just keeping pace with change — we aim to lead it. Our vision is to build solutions that deliver real value, trusted cover, and confidence on the road, every time.

Rachel is a star 🌟

Rachel went above and beyond to get to the bottom of my enquiry/issue. Not only did she save my bank account she also saved my worries.

Customer service was brilliant 5* - a credit to your team!!

Also a mention to the lady ( trainee ) who put me through to the relevant department and also wanted to help sort out my enquiry/issue

AVOID AVOID AVOID

AVOID this company. Terrible experience from start to finish. Gross negligence and zero accountability.

I was explicitly instructed by their team to travel to their nominated repairer because an independent engineer was scheduled to inspect my vehicle. I arranged my entire work schedule around this appointment, only to discover upon arrival that the engineer was a no-show. The reason? Their own staff later admitted that they had simply FORGOTTEN to raise the inspection request with the engineer. What makes this gross negligence EVEN WORSE is that nobody bothered to inform me, let alone apologize.

Then, the formal complaint handling has been an absolute joke. I have repeatedly been given false promises, both in writing and over the phone, I was assured in writing that a final response would be issued within the working week. I received nothing. I called to follow up, and they promised that a response would be sent "by the end of the day." Again, absolutely nothing arrived.

My complaint process has now been ongoing for 11 WEEKS - NO RESPONSE, well past the statutory deadline. They are intentionally employing a strategy of avoidance and delays, leaving me with no updates despite my continuous emails and calls.

This company shows zero respect for its customers' time, breaks its own written and verbal commitments, and handles valid claims in total bad faith. Save yourself the stress and AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS.

--------------------------------

UPDATE

It is fascinating to see how quickly you can respond when a complaint is made in a public forum. If you had shown this level of speed and urgency during the actual 11 weeks of my claim, much of the inconvenience, delay, and frustration I experienced could have been avoided. Using a public platform for a PR exercise while ignoring a customer privately for nearly three months speaks volumes about your company’s priorities.

I do not agree that the claim outcome has been adequately justified. The independent engineer officially confirmed a "sudden failure" of the AdBlue injector, yet significant elements of the claim were rejected on the basis that causation could not be determined, rather than being positively shown to fall outside the scope of cover.

You state that you "remain willing to discuss the matter further." My question to you is simple: Should I discuss this with you here on Trustpilot, or will I have to wait another 11 weeks for a private response?

Reply from TMO - The Motoring Organisation

Dear Eda,

We are sorry to read your review and acknowledge your frustration regarding the timescales and communication during the handling of your claim.

However, we feel it is important to clarify that the claim outcome was based on an independent engineer's inspection rather than a decision made solely by us.

Where the cause of a fault is unclear, or where there is conflicting information regarding a repair, we will often commission an independent engineer's inspection at our own expense. We do this to ensure that customers do not miss out on repairs that may be covered and to obtain an impartial technical opinion before making a claim decision.

In this case, the independent assessment concluded that the AdBlue injector had suffered a sudden failure, and we subsequently agreed to contribute towards that repair. However, the engineer also identified evidence that diagnostic fault codes had previously been cleared and that key diagnostic history was therefore no longer available. As a result, the engineer was unable to establish the origin, progression or causation of the wider faults being claimed.

Whilst the injector failure could be independently evidenced, the engineer could not determine that the additional components being claimed had suffered a separate sudden mechanical failure that would fall within the scope of cover provided. For that reason, and in line with both the independent findings and the terms of the warranty, we were only able to support the repair that could be independently evidenced.

We do recognise that aspects of the customer journey, particularly around communication and complaint handling timescales, fell below the standards we aim to provide, and for that we apologise. Whilst we appreciate that you disagree with the outcome, the claim decision was based on independent technical evidence rather than assumption, and we remain willing to discuss the matter further.

James was great at helping me renew my aftercare, he was clear and insightful on everything and was open to any questions, it was relatively quick and easy over the phone and he gave me a few different options of aftercare to choose from explaining them all in detail, everyone at the TMO have been extremely helpful, wether on a claim I’ve done or for this instance, renewing my aftercare. Would highly recommend.

James (sales rep) was patient, attentive and informative. Took time to answer my questions and was honest when knowledge of subject matters was insufficient, seeking guidance from others and internal documentation.

He made the process to renew easy a d straightforward. Thank you

Excellent customer service

I bought a car recently with a parasitic drain on the battery. I contacted TMO, to have the car looked at, under the warranty. I dealt with three ladies, Maria, Charlotte and Becca. They dealt with my claim very efficiently and paid the repairer directly. Thankyou for your excellent customer service.
