Why has Digicall Assist created the Awards program?

Digicall Assist’s 1300+ network of roadside assistance providers is a critical part of getting broken-down motorists back on the road. Car breakdowns are unpredictable — they can happen at any time, in any place and in any conditions. A great roadside assistance provider is skilled, adaptable, and willing to go above and beyond, no matter the circumstance. The annual Awards program allows us to recognise and celebrate the best performers and those who best support Digicall Assist’s mission to deliver exceptional customer experience. We believe their great work should be celebrated.

What are the benefits of being recognised as an outstanding Provider through these awards?

Being recognised as one of the top Providers by Digicall Assist means you are acknowledged as the best of the best in the roadside assistance industry. Along with the honour and credibility this entails, winners get a certificate and trophy to proudly display, as well as being promoted across media, social media and Digicall Assist’s website. Finalists also get a certificate and their exceptional work highlighted on Digicall Assist’s website and social channels. Winners and finalists get a Winner or Finalist logo they can use in their own communications.

What does a roadside assistance provider typically do?

Roadside assistance providers – such as mechanics and towing services – are on the frontline of roadside assistance, dealing with broken-down motorists face to face. They are often the final step in getting the car safely back on the road again. They have solid motor vehicle expertise, along with excellent customer service, adaptability and safety compliance. Diagnosing, repairing and mobilising vehicles can be tricky — and sometimes risky. Our roadside assistance providers get up close and personal with heavy machinery, often in busy traffic conditions. They must be able to stay calm, confident and compliant under pressure.

Where do roadside assistance providers operate?

Roadside assistance providers operate all across Australia – city CBDs, suburbia and towns, and throughout regional and remote areas. Most breakdowns happen within 10km of a service provider, but sometimes breakdowns happen in remote parts of Australia, without phone coverage or nearby help.

In these challenging situations, our roadside assistance teams do whatever it takes to assist a stranded customer.
