I wont ever deal with this company again.
I have 2 vehicles under the road side assistance. The one vehicle was just recently about 2 month ago covered for road side assistance. The vehicle got sold, so I thought I would get a refund. No such luck. Once my current insurance is due for renewal I will take my business elsewhere.
I was given the option to transfer the cover to someone else but certainly not transferred to my current policy.
WONT BE DEALING WITH THEM ANYMORE
It was really easy to get our 4×4 insurance with budget direct, they easily took the payment. But when we were caught in a huge hail storm they did everything to avoid covering the damage. They even suspended cover and made it really difficult. If your car has any modifications or accessories then this will be reason to not cover. Disgusted!
