Nearly fainted when I read the letter.
There are also all the usual things like:
- Access unlimited roadside assistance.
- Flat batteries
- Empty tanks
- Access up to $3000 a year for accommodation, car hire and onward travel
- Free towing
- Free child seat fitting
- Free child restraint installation
- Locked out up to $100 towards a vehicle locksmith
- Breakdown - over 100km from home, - accommodation and onward travel
- Taxi cover $50 towards the taxi fare if you break down close to home
I have never used the child restraint/seat service however at those prices I would recommend moving to Australia. For most UK cars (under 1.5 tonnes) membership would only cost $200 (£100)

Until this year when I bought a brand new car with Ford Insurance cover, I've always used Green Flag.They're very reasonable and because they call out local breakdown services instead of running and maintaining their own fleet of vans they can keep their costs down.

Re: RAC or anyone else ?
Tell them they are a bunch of shysters to their face - and be blunt about it; tell them you are changing to another provider and watch how they can miraculously match the price.Once they do that, tell them to piss off and change to the said provider.
