Blink Breakdown don’t have their own vans like say the AA or RAC. Blink Breakdown have the UK’s largest network of breakdown specialists, with over 4,000 independent breakdown recovery experts operating nationwide, which we find means quicker call out times, Blink Breakdown aim to have a specialist out to you within 40 minutes.

IS UK RECOVERY INCLUDED IF NOT REPAIRED?

Yes. Full UK recovery is included. Blink Breakdown will aim to repair the vehicle at the roadside (repairs are completed at roadside for over 75% of cases). For vehicles that can’t be repaired at the roadside or local garage within 10 miles, you can have the vehicle and up to 7 passengers (not taxis) recovered to your home or original destination (whichever is closer).

AM I COVERED IF I BREAKDOWN AT HOME?

Yes, Blink Breakdown include cover if you have broken down at home or within 1/4 mile of your home.

HOW MANY 'CALL OUTS' AM I COVERED FOR?

Unlike some policies that only provide you with cover for just 1 or up to 6 call outs a year, Blink Breakdown provide peace of mind that an unlimited amount of breakdowns are covered by your policy.

DO I HAVE TO PAY AN EXCESS IF I BREAKDOWN?

No. Blink Breakdown has a nil excess on any breakdowns, unlike many policies out there that have a £40 plus claim excess.

IS THERE ANY COVER IF I RAN OUT OR PUT WRONG FUEL IN?

Yes. If you accidentally put the wrong fuel in the vehicle you have cover. Blink Breakdown will arrange for the draining and disposal of incorrect or contaminated fuel, plus will provide up to 10 litres of the correct fuel. If this doesn’t resolve the incident, they will recover the vehicle up to 10 miles.

If you run out of fuel or charge (for electric vehicles) Blink Breakdown will arrange recovery up to 10 miles to refuel/charge.

HOW QUICKLY CAN I OBTAIN COVER?

The quickest way is to call our office on 01288 353999 and we can arrange cover over the phone. Alternatively you can fill in the online quote form and submit it to us, we will come back to you as soon as possible.

Cover cannot be in force until at least 24 hrs after the policy has been set up. This is to avoid people who have already broken down and looking for an instant call out.

AM I COVERED IF I'M IN SOMEONE ELSES CAR?

Depends on the policy you’ve taken out. The standard policies are priced per vehicle, but covers anyone driving that specified vehicle.

However there is an option to take out a ‘Personal Cover’ policy. This policy covers a named individual whilst they’re driving ANY car/motorcycle or they are a passenger in someone’s car. Additional people can also be added to this type of policy.

AM I COVERED WHILST DRIVING OUTSIDE THE UK?

Not as standard. For cars, motorcycles and small vans there is an option to extend the policy to cover you for breakdowns in most European countries. The European cover has a limit per trip up to 31 days and up to 90 days in total a year.

Terms and conditions whilst driving abroad will apply.

Some Comments From The Customers Who Have Used The Blink Breakdown Service

” The arrival time by the garage was from the initial call just 13 minutes and when the problem was insurmountable the car was promptly loaded on to the recovery vehicle and delivered to my address. This could have been a disastrous end to my holidays but your service sorted the problem wonderfully… my compliments to your call staff and garage that responded.”

Mr P – Hull

” I would like to congratulate your call centre staff who were exceptionally helpful and efficient in dealing with the repair. It is refreshing in an age when many call centres of banking and insurance groups favour automated systems and volume over quality. Well done.”

Mr S G – Herts
