SAYNOTO0870.COM - RAC 03 Number.

bigjohn Supreme Member Offline Posts: 2,316 Gender:	RAC 03 Number. Nov 24^th, 2013 at 4:28pm I saw a new RAC Patrol Vehicle today and noticed that the 0800 Number shown on the vehicle,s has now been prominently replaced by a new 03 number. 0333 2000 100. First time I have seen them advertise 03 on vehicles. I know they have been using 0333 2000 999 for mobile users to contact them when breaking down.

I received my latest RAC card about a month ago but hadn't noticed any 03 number so checked and there are only the usual 0800 numbers and 0844 for Members Enq. same as usual. I will have a look on their site as there are different 0800 numbers for Accident and Breakdown.

I have just also checked the papers in the same envelope and nothing is mentioned anywhere for mobile users. Angry

I will have to write it on with marker when checked for use if necessary.

Thanks bigjohn to letting everyone know when RAC apprear to want to keep it a secret.

I have posted on the Barclays 0844 thread regarding the 'National Rate' quoted as charge rate, which also the same quote I have already posted on the RAC Forum.

I am afraid bigjohn I dont have Internet when out in the car and my mobile is a simple PAYGO for Emergency use only, therefore I would be looking at my Card for numbers or Contacts in the phone, so I will be changing those numbers now to the 0333.

Thanks again for your brilliant announcment where RAC have failed completely Grin

I have just dialed the 0333 2000 100 number that bigjohn saw on a 'New' RAC van and can confirm that this number connects with options for Insurance and cant remember the other one but option 3 was for 'other infor' or something and when answered I asked the gentleman what the 100 ending number seen on a van was for he said it was 'Customer Services' but can fiind nothing on the RAC Site.

I called it before posting and i recall option 1 was for if you had broken down, and needed recovery.
