An update on Green Flag, shows basic Rescue service from only £25, amazing value. Even their recovery service options start from £46 today.

It does not take a genius to compare an annual policy price against a call out charge from a recovery agent should you breakdown. In fact it makes you wonder, how they make a profit from this.

A basic annual breakdown cover policy for less than a tank full of petrol. If there was a time to consider based on price, it must be now.

Well it seems they are competing with each other again as the AA are also offering offering 25% off their breakdown cover policies when you buy online.

The AA always tend to be more expensive than the rest of the field, probaby becase they have more patrolem on the payroll than anyone else. But in this case they are only £1.40 more expensive than the RAC, with an annual membership starting from £34.40 after their 25% discount is applied.

In fact compared to the RAC, all their prices seem pretty close.

The latest on the RAC promotion offers is that they are offering 25% off, if you buy online. That means that you can get a roadside policy from £33, for a years cover, that is down from £44.

The cheapest option that offers nationwide recovery is now £69 down from £92 and is called solution 1. There are even better options that curently all offer 25% off.
