What does a mobile battery call-out cost?
One rule: you know the full price before the van moves. The quote is itemised — call-out, battery by exact type if you need one, any out-of-hours supplement — and the invoice matches the quote. The quote itself costs nothing.
How the price is built
| Service | What's included | Indicative price |
|---|---|---|
| Jump-start / boost on site | Professional booster at your car, then a charging-system check | from 59 € |
| Standard battery, fitted | Battery to the exact specification (capacity / CCA), fitted at the car | from 149 € |
| Start-Stop EFB / AGM battery, fitted | EFB or AGM battery, fitted and registered with the car's BMS where required | from 219 € |
| Fitting, BMS registration, recycling of the old unit | Included with a battery | included |
| Night, Sunday & bank-holiday surcharge | Always stated on the phone, before we set off | stated on the phone |
Indicative prices. The exact price depends on your car and your location: you get a firm, free quote by phone before any call-out — in writing by SMS on request — and nothing is charged without your agreement.
Why ranges rather than one flat price?
Because one flat price for the whole of France would be a lie in both directions — subsidised in Paris, padded in the countryside. The honest version: a fixed call-out for your area, a battery priced by its exact specification, and supplements that are announced, not discovered.
Insurance, plainly: you receive a fully itemised invoice (date, location, work, parts, labour). you can submit it to your breakdown or travel insurer — whether anything is covered depends on your policy, and we make no promise beyond the paperwork being right. How claims work: breakdown cover in France.
Payment
Card or contactless at the car, day and night. The invoice is in English, doubles as your battery-warranty document, and is emailed as PDF if you prefer.
