I don’t think you’ll find they’ll cover your commercial vehicle on that policy though. I didn’t want to take the chance as they said they’re enforcing their rules more strictly.

£80  a year commercial vehicle breakdown cover including homestart(RAC)with my van insurance

Dazmond........RAC do it yet AA won't.....strange that will give them a ring.

It's an odd one with RAC.  You have to read the Terms and Conditions with a fine tooth comb.   Normal RAC cover does not include commercial cover anymore.  They now have a separate webpage for commercial cover policy cover.  Search it in Google.   It's a lot more expensive.

However third party offerings such as insurance companies all have different terms with RAC.  It's totally confusing so be careful.

I always get my  breakdown cover (with home start) when  I renew my commercial van insurance.of course I'm covered!it's usually cheaper than getting it separately too!👍

Yea same with me.  I have Sole Trader RAC cover through an insurance company which is cheaper than direct Commercial RAC cover.

They came out to me when I broke down last year in my van. Auxiliary belt snapped on my way home. I limped back but it died a couple of miles from home. They charged my battery and followed me to my designated garage. I hope it's still in force now.

I thought this thread was about Dazmondos new tattoo.

RAC don't cover commercial. They cover personal vans and if yours is not sign written and no sign of tools you won't have a problem.

I thought mine was covered but because it was obviously been used commercially I had to pay 100 quid for a tow.

I switched to AA  but now they've stopped it.

So i signed up with green flag but after reading the small print I dont think im Properly covered with them either.

Doesn't seem to be anyway around taking out a commercial policy these days.

This is all I could find whereby they won't cover you.

There’s no cover when travelling in a car, van, minibus or motorcycle exceeding the weight restriction of 3.5 tonnes and max width restriction of 8ft 3in (2.55m).

Is that insurance home start and road side assistance? Any sign of relay/recovery to where you want in the country? The AA do commercial breakdown cover but it doesn't include relay/recovery 👎
