Consumer rights protected Your statutory UK rights always apply
Contact us first support@roadwayassist.uk

This Refund Policy applies to Roadway Assist Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (Company Number: 16988542). It explains when refunds may be issued, when refunds do not apply, and how refund requests are assessed.

Roadway Assist provides 24/7 emergency roadside assistance services including mobile tyre replacement, breakdown recovery, battery jump start, fuel delivery, and vehicle support across the United Kingdom.

01

General Principles

Roadside assistance involves real-time dispatch, technician allocation, travel, and coordination costs. Refunds are not automatic and are assessed based on:

The stage of the booking at the time of the request
Whether a technician has been allocated or dispatched
Operational costs incurred at the point of the request
The accuracy of information provided by the customer
All refund decisions are made at the sole discretion of Roadway Assist Ltd, in accordance with this policy and applicable UK law.
02

Refunds Before Dispatch

If a booking is cancelled before a technician has been dispatched, Roadway Assist may, at its sole discretion, issue a partial or full refund.

Administrative, allocation, and processing costs already incurred may be deducted. A booking is considered "in dispatch" once a technician has been allocated or travel has commenced.

03

Refunds After Dispatch

Once a technician has been dispatched, refunds are generally not available. Operational costs include but are not limited to:

Technician allocation and travel time
Fuel and mileage costs
Administrative coordination and call handling
Booking management costs
If a technician has travelled, arrived on site, or incurred service-related costs, the deposit or payment made may be retained and applied toward call-out or cancellation charges. If work has begun, the full quoted amount may be payable.
04

Service Not Delivered Due to Our Limitation

If Roadway Assist is unable to provide service due solely to technician unavailability and no suitable alternative can be arranged, a refund of amounts paid directly to Roadway Assist may be issued.

Refunds are limited strictly to the amount paid to Roadway Assist. We are not liable for:

Indirect losses or missed appointments
Recovery delays caused by factors outside our control
Alternative arrangements made independently by the customer
05

Incorrect or Incomplete Information

Refunds will not be granted where service cannot be completed due to inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading information provided at booking. This includes but is not limited to:

Incorrect location details
Undisclosed vehicle faults or missing locking wheel key
Incorrect tyre size or misrepresented vehicle condition
Restricted access conditions not disclosed at booking

If job scope differs materially from what was described, revised pricing may apply before work proceeds.

06

Pre-Existing Vehicle Conditions

Roadway Assist and dispatched technicians are not responsible for service limitations or outcomes affected by pre-existing mechanical faults, electrical weaknesses, corrosion, seized components, prior damage, or manufacturer design issues.

Emergency roadside procedures including jump starts, tyre removal, fuel drainage, or recovery operations carry inherent risks depending on vehicle condition. Refunds will not be issued where service limitations arise from such conditions.

07

No-Shows and Customer Unavailability

If a customer is unreachable, absent, or fails to cooperate at the agreed location, the booking may be closed as a no-show.

In no-show cases, deposits are non-refundable and applicable dispatch or call-out charges may apply.
08

Refund Processing

Approved refunds will be processed using the original payment method where possible. Refund processing times typically range between 3 to 7 business days but may vary depending on the payment provider.

Roadway Assist is not responsible for delays caused by banks or third-party payment processors.

09

Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

Customers are strongly encouraged to contact Roadway Assist before initiating any chargeback or payment dispute. Unauthorised chargebacks or payment reversals may be formally contested using:

Dispatch confirmations and technician reports
GPS logs and call recordings
Payment confirmations and job completion records
Abusive or fraudulent chargebacks may result in refusal of future services and recovery action where appropriate.
10

Exceptional Circumstances

In exceptional situations outside the customer's reasonable control, Roadway Assist may review refund requests on a case-by-case basis.

Any goodwill refund issued does not set a precedent for future cases.
11

Consumer Rights

Nothing in this Refund Policy affects your statutory rights under applicable UK consumer protection laws.

Your statutory consumer rights under UK law are always protected, regardless of the terms of this policy.
