Needed my GEM breakdown
Contacted GEM, texted a form. Filled recovery form in, towing caravan suddenly no ancillary lights on caravan and dusk. Gave our details, quick call back to confirm some details. Then call back to advise contacted recovery, couple more questions. Received text to say who was coming, then recovery turned up before too long. Break lights side rear side lights and indicators came on when plugged into their vehicle but also reversing lights permanently on so taped over these and recovered caravan to home address, helped me and made sure everything was ok before leaving to go back to Lincs.

Fairly straightforward breakdown…
Fairly straightforward breakdown reporting through the app. Can just stay on the phone and talk to a person if you want to.
Given a 2 hour slot for recovery to turn up. Got there in hour and a half.
Got me home. Friendly recovery chap. Had a good chat on way home. Been with GEM for several years but first time used, so far so good.

Recovered within 30 minutes
I had reason to call for assistance 19 May 26.
Within 30 minutes the truck arrived and we were soon on our way.
I pay and re-claim. The money was back in my bank in less than 7days.
Well done, this is my first time having to use GEM motoring assist which I find great value.

I broke down while travelling on…
I broke down while travelling on holiday and just about to enter a motorway. I had warnings come up mentioning handbrake, trip computer one, and unable to read type pressures. No one of it made a lot of sense plus the tyres all looked ok, and the handbrake was off. I didn't fancy entering a motorway with a fault so called GEM. The call was answered very quickly and details taken. The GEM man arranged for a service van to attend and investigate. He arrived in about 25 minutes, checked the details and checked everything and cleared the warning. He diagnose a faulty TPMS unit or sensor andeclared the car safe to use, but needing non urgent attention. The whole thing took about an hour. Excelent service

Left stranded overnight, misled, and forced to manage my own breakdown
I’ve been a paying member of GEM for several years. The first time I actually needed them, they failed completely. Be aware, they use another contractor for breakdowns called ‘Call Assist’.
I broke down on a rural road in Dorset in the evening. From that point onward, the service deteriorated rapidly. I was explicitly told I was “fully covered” for recovery home, however they then failed to secure recovery and constantly changed their position.
I was repeatedly asked to:
o arrange my own transport
o check for taxis / Uber (with limited signal in the middle of nowhere)
o find my own tyre fitter
I was passed between numerous call handlers, had to repeat everything multiple times, and no one took ownership of the situation.
The most serious failure was when they cancelled my recovery because I had found a tyre fitter myself (which I should never have been asked to do in the first place)
That tyre fitter then couldn’t help which left me with no recovery arranged at all, late at night.
As a result, I was stranded for over 12 hours and had to sleep in my car.
The next morning, I was suddenly told I was only covered for 10–20 miles, despite the previous night’s assurances, a complete contradiction of what I had been told. To make matters worse, when I was finally recovered, the recovery driver told me that his company would have happily taken me all the way home the previous night, they were just never contacted. This completely undermines Call Assist’s repeated claim that “all options had been exhausted.”
Their investigation later upheld my complaint, but only on the basis of “delay”, and offered a pathetic £50 compensation. This is after I have paid around £130 per year for full breakdown cover membership. I have submitted the complaint to the financial ombudsman.
This was not a delay. It was:
• Misinformation about cover
• Poor coordination
• Failure to maintain a recovery plan
• Lack of duty of care to a stranded customer
I was left cold, tired, and unsupported in a remote location overnight. I am a fit male who was on my own. A family with young kids in the same situation could have been in serious danger.
This is not a service you can rely on in an emergency.

Absolutely dire service. Waited 4 i/2 hours for recovery with an elderly passenger on the very busy Mayfield by-pass with nowhere to take refuge. A terrifying experience for both of us. Offered £25 compensation!

Car wouldn't start. Awkward spot, miles from home and on my own. Excellent service straight from my phone call for help. Response time was brilliant recovery there in under 15 minutes. All the staff involved were informative, reassuring, helpful and lovely to speak with. Cannot reccomend them enough. Got me started in 5 mins to get me to the garage for a new battery. Thank you Gem!

Well done GEM
Unfortunately I’ve had to call GEM on two occasions in the last 8 months, 1st time gearbox failure on my motorhome which necessitated recovery some 80 miles to my garage,the second time due to battery failure,fortunately a jump start was all that was required.
I must say each time GEM acted immediately with no hesitation. I’ve been a member now for over 10 years , covering car,motorhome and motorbike

Excellent service when I broke down on the M5 last week. It took 2h for the vehicle to arrive, but this was made clear from the outset, is pretty standard, and I had regular calls to ensure that we stayed in touch. The vehicle was loaded promptly and the driver helped me push it into my garage when we arrived. I’ve used the service twice before, and it remains hassle-free and reassuring. Strongly recommended.

First time I have broken down in years…
First time I have broken down in years and I am so pleased that I had cover with this fantastic company. 5 stars from me, don't hesitate to buy breakdown cover with them.
Long and short, I had a tyre blowout at just gone midnight. On my own, dark country roads so I got to a lit area and used the app to call assistance. The app is excellent but maybe quicker to have phoned. I'm old! The app also tracks the responding breakdown vehicle and constantly updates you on the arrival and when he reached me, well it couldn't have been a nicer guy. So I waited one hour for him to get to me, 20 minutes for the tyre change (and a teaching session at my request so I can try myself in future) but I doubt I would as I suspect I'd end up dropping it on its axle. He really was the proverbial night in shining armour! I was on my way on a space saving tyre in no time. I just have the painful job of buying a new one this morning!
Also to say that an operator also called me to ensure that the company had arrived with me and everyone I have spoken to this morning to ensure that the breakdown guy got my positive feedback has been equally as helpful.
So nice to know these people exist. Thank you!
