When does the cover start?
You choose the start date of the add-on cover. Thus, it can start immediately.
What should I do if my car breaks down?

If your car breaks down, call us immediately on 026 - 400 23 45 or, if you are calling from outside the Netherlands, on +31 26 400 23 45. These numbers are available 24/7. You are entitled to receive assistance only if you call us first. We will arrange the assistance for you.

Am I covered for roadside assistance if I am travelling outside the Netherlands?
Breaking down is always an unwelcome and frustrating experience, but especially so when you are abroad. With the international roadside assistance add-on cover, you are assured of assistance whenever you need it. For example, we will arrange for chauffeur service if the driver is unable to drive due to illness or injury. And if no other passenger is allowed to drive the car. Moreover, you will receive a courtesy car for up to 15 business days if your car takes longer than 24 hours to repair (excluding fuel).
 
You can choose either Roadside Assistance NL or International Roadside Assistance. The assistance that will be provided depends on the cover you have purchased.
 
If your policy states that you have International Roadside Assistance cover, your insurance will cover roadside assistance in case your car or RV breaks down in another country. Please note: transport of your car or RV to your home in the Netherlands will only be covered if repairs take longer than 4 business days.
What types of assistance are provided?
Roadside and at home assistance are provided. For example, in case of a dead battery, flat tyre, filling up with the wrong type of fuel or if your car has incurred damage as a result of an accident. A mechanic will always try to carry out an emergency repair so that you can get back on the road quickly. If this is not possible, you are entitled to a courtesy car.
Under which car insurance can I insure roadside assistance?
Roadside assistance can be insured along with the limited, comprehensive policy and third-party liability insurance.
