UK Breakdown Cover
At Cover My we recognise how important your car is for your day-to-day life, and so we believe finding the right breakdown cover for your carefully chosen car is vital.
We have designed a range of affordable and reliable breakdown cover options to make sure your car is protected to suit your needs and make sure you never have to drive again without knowing we will help should the unexpected happen.
We’ll cover an individual whatever the vehicle they’re driving – or alternatively cover the vehicle no matter who’s driving it. Our UK Breakdown Cover will provide you with assistance if your vehicle should breakdown at the roadside. We aim to carry out a temporary repair to your vehicle. If a temporary repair is not possible, we will arrange for you, your vehicle and up to four passengers to be taken to the nearest suitable garage.
Our wide range of cover options allows you to tailor the perfect breakdown cover for your needs. You can add Annual European Breakdown or Single European Breakdown cover if you are planning any holidays or travel for business often. We also provide a range of useful extras such as Key Cover and Misfuel Cover.
We want our customers to feel safe and assured in knowing purchasing cover through us gives you reliable and affordable insurance that allows you to protect what matters to you the most. And if the worst was to happen, you have someone that believes what is important to you is also important to us as well.
