Why you don’t need to buy cover at the roadside
Many breakdown providers charge extra if you join after you’ve already broken down, and you’re then paying every month or every year afterwards. With us there’s nothing to join. You pay once, for this job only, which usually works out cheaper than paying every month.
See how pay as you go breakdown cover works.

Call 07778 348703No breakdown cover questions
Can I get recovered if I have no breakdown cover?
Yes. Anyone can call us. You don’t need a policy or a membership, and you pay only for the job you need.
How much does recovery cost without breakdown cover?
Recovery starts from £75 and jump starts from £60. The full price depends on the vehicle and the distance, and you’ll know it before you book.
Is it cheaper than joining a breakdown club at the roadside?
Usually, yes. Many providers charge extra if you join after you’ve already broken down, and you then keep paying. With us you pay once, for this job only.
My breakdown cover has run out. Can you still help?
Yes. Call us directly and pay for the job.
Where can you take my vehicle?
Anywhere in the UK – your garage, your home or any other address. The journey is included in the price we give you.
What if I break down on the motorway with no cover?
Get yourself safe first, then call us with the motorway, your direction and the last junction you passed. Motorway recovery starts from £150. If you’re in danger, call 999.
How do I pay?
By card or bank transfer. The call-out or booking fee is paid up front by bank transfer or through our secure payment link, and you pay the rest on our card machine when we’re with you. For your security, we never take card details over the phone and we never store them.
