How hard is it to cancel RACV?
RACV scores 66/100 (grade C) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the AU, a partially documented cancellation policy with notable gaps. Cancellation is available via phone, email, online (self-serve), in-app.
To cancel personal RACV membership and emergency roadside assistance, members contact RACV directly (13 RACV / 13 72 28); insurance products can also be cancelled self-serve via the RACV App or online account dashboard using the 'Cancel product' button. For insurance, RACV refunds the unexpired (pro-rata) portion of any paid premium, less any cancellation processing fee and government charges it must retain by law. Cancelling all RACV products ends membership status, and re-joining later restarts at Blue Member tier (0-4 years). RACV Club membership is cancelled separately via 1300 501 501 or [email protected].

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights, scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
