The Gold Medal for Customer Support was awarded to RAC for the company's impressive response times to customer emergencies. At an average of 22 seconds, RAC's responses are a full 60% faster than industry standard.

Equally, RAC's highly regarded Customer Service Department was the Gold Medal winner for the extraordinary lengths the team goes to in order to service new and existing customers in emergency situations.
