AA Breakdown price change

[m8internet]

Just received this

Please be advised that the from the 18th November 2010 the AA will be increasing their UK Breakdown cover base price from £28 to £30 for two weeks as a test. Following this two week period the price will revert back to the original base price of £28

A test, a test of what?

[Ste]

Whether
a. People actually notice
b. if the increase puts people off
c. RAC increase their prices too


Either way, we all will pay higher prices come renewal.

i can remember a few yrs ago i joined the AA and that year they was selling up ,i dont know the full story about it now but they sold the AA to another company and every member was asked to sign a form for solicitors to act in there behalf ,so i signed it and talk about gr8 news

i bought my membership for £54 at the time i think
reiceived £250 back, then didnt renew membership as i got a company car

wot a result

Just another example of the price of things going up whilst wages remain the same or even go down. Making the cost of living higher overall, and those who's wages have remained the same, are effectively suffering a pay cut. How about all these robbing companies being forced to maintain a price freeze until the country recovers? Heaven forbid eh

not has a payrise for over 3 years now so we're behind about 10% in total i think
