Member Feedback
What Our Members Say
Feedback from AvD members who rely on us on every journey.
A breakdown on the motorway at night — one
call to the AvD hotline and help arrived within the hour. I have never felt so well
looked after. Worth every cent.
With HELP PLUS my whole family is
protected on holiday abroad. When our car broke down in Italy, AvD organised everything,
from the tow to the rental car.
The fuel discount alone almost pays for my
membership, and the insurance rates for my car were noticeably better than what I had
before.
Signing up was quick and straightforward.
The member card arrived promptly and I was covered right away. Excellent, personal
service.
What I value most is the peace of mind.
Whether at home or abroad, I know AvD is there 24/7. The medical repatriation cover
gives me real confidence when travelling.
A club with real tradition, and it shows.
The team is competent and friendly, and help is always fast. I have recommended AvD to
my whole family.
From breakdown assistance to insurance and
partner discounts, everything comes from a single source. Perfect protection at the best
price, exactly as promised.
