    Hey, does the usualy "Breakdown Cover/Assistance" cover flat battery and would they come and jump start it? If I am with First Ireland brokers, I paid 30 euro a year for extras. Would they do it?

    Maybe not at your house! At least the AA charge more for home start.

    Just play dumb...
    Oh golly gosh, my car just won't start and I don't know whatever could be the matter with it!

    It should be covered, I'm sure I called the breakdown cover attached to my wifes police once for something similar.

    Used breakdown cover for this at home before. Played dumb even though I knew that lights had been left on. Guy called to house put a battery pack on and away I went! Don't ask when u call.

    Ended up starting car fine, might give them a call tomorrow though, seems like my battery is dead, it loses charge eveyr second. 10 seconds of AC full blowing on battery and it's flat. Oh well..
