UK Breakdown Cover from GEM

GEM offers one fully comprehensive breakdown recovery service, with two options. 
Both options are for personal breakdown cover which means we cover you driving any car...

Our breakdown cover includes:

Breakdown Cover Benefit Tick Roadside assistance

If you break down more than ¼ mile from your home we will carry out emergency repairs to get you moving, or tow you to any one UK destination of your choice.

Breakdown Cover Benefit Tick Recovery

We'll take you, your vehicle and up to seven passengers to any one UK destination of your choice.

Breakdown Cover Benefit Tick Home assistance

If your car won't start or breaks down at/or within ¼ mile of your home, we will either repair it there or take it to the nearest garage. (Our Recovery RECLAIM product is subject to a claim limit of £70, current average claim for Home assistance is £52.70)

Breakdown Cover Benefit Tick Onward travel

If you break down more than 25 miles from home and repairs can't be carried out that day, we can assist with onward travel or overnight accommodation up to the value of £200.

We cover:

  • Running out of fuel
  • A flat battery or punctured tyre
  • Driver illness
  • YOU in any vehicle you are driving (excluding HGVs, LCVs, minibuses, vehicles used for private/public hire or to carry livestock. If in doubt, call our team on 0845 3700 940 to check your vehicle is covered)

open quote Just to say thank you for the prompt, efficient and seamless service I have received from you. Returning to a deserted, remote car park at a snow-bound UK airport after a week in sunny Spain to find that my car wouldn't start was a bit of a blow to say the least but thanks to you I was on the road well within the hour. So very well done; first class service and should I ever have to call on you again – and no offence but I sincerely hope I don't, at least I will know I am in safe hands. Thank you. close quote
