Compare

How HGV247 differs from the alternatives.

Most directories sell placement or take a cut. National breakdown networks subcontract the job and keep the customer relationship. HGV247 does neither.

CheckedEvery listing is verified before it goes live.
Is it really free for 12 months?

Yes. Every new listing receives 12 months of free access from the day it passes checks and goes live, and no card is needed to register. We email you 30, 14, 7 and 1 days before the free period ends. If no membership is in place by then, the listing is hidden from search and stops receiving requests until you subscribe; nothing is deleted.

Does HGV247 charge per lead or take commission?

No. After the free 12 months, membership is a flat £10 per month plus VAT where applicable. HGV247 does not add a per-lead fee or commission to the work you agree directly with the customer.

Does joining guarantee enquiries?

No. Demand, location, capability, profile quality and competition all vary. We do not sell guaranteed rankings or invent lead-volume claims. Complete profiles with accurate coverage and hours perform best.

How do I receive requests?

Matched emergency requests and profile enquiries are emailed to you with the vehicle, location, fault and contact details, and appear in your dashboard where you can track the outcome.

Can I list both a workshop and mobile service?

Yes. Choose the combined business type and publish a realistic mobile coverage radius alongside your workshop address and access information.

What does verification involve?

Before publication we check the trading identity and contact details behind the listing. The badge describes that check only; it is not an endorsement, and we say so to drivers.

Can I pause my listing?

Yes. Switch availability off in the dashboard when you cannot take work and back on when you can. Paused providers are not matched to emergency requests.

Can I cancel?

Yes. Cancel the recurring membership through the billing portal at any time. Your profile is unpublished when the paid period ends, and you can subscribe again later to switch it back on.

Nothing is published until it has been checked. Membership starts only when you choose to activate it.
