MX-5 OC Forum

 I'm posting this here as I can't find the section/forum on members benefits.  I know it's here somewhere but can't find it for the life of me.  Anyway........

I rang the AA, asked if they still offered discount on AA renewal for MX5OC members.  2 minutes later she's knocked me nearly £30 off.

Bargain.

Edited to add that I've found the original info!!!

Was that for new members or renewal thanks

It's for renewal.  The renewal note just came through, so I rang them and bingo, 15% discount on the price quoted on the letter.

Thanks mies up in a few weeks I'll do the same .gerry 

My sister is married to a farmer and they have a secretary for the paper work. A couple of months ago the secretary's AA renewal came through at around £150. She decided she wasn't happy so phoned. the call centre voice immediately dropped it to £100, secretary decided still not good enough. Call voice put her on hold for a minute, checked with someone and came back at £78. Accepted. A month later my sister's renewal came through and the secretary said leave it to me. Same scenario - initial quote dropped to £100, rejected, on hold, check and come back with further reduced offer. Secretary was miffed because it was a couple of quid less than hers. Lesson -  challenge twice.

This is what happens when fine old organisations like AA and RAC are bought out by investment banks who have big bonuses to pay their greedy high flyers.
