AAA Stamford: Reviews
Positive experience: The phone number listed is not useful for us to reach any rep at the office. I placed an order for foreign currency and I cannot know the status as no option is allowing me to reach a rep. It sucks, now I need to drive to their office to know the status or collect my money. Not happy
Negative experience: Triple AAA office services are great! However their road side assistance is absolutely terrible. They literally waited until the last min of my expected tow to call and tell me they are running behind and they can’t give me a time. How organized is your business when you can’t give a paying customer whose already waited over an hour an estimated time. That just shows you how much Stamford AAA values their customers and their time. I should have stayed with my insurer roadside assistance because this is time consuming and unorganized service in my opinion.
Hello Melyblaze,thanks for sharing your feedback. We'd like to follow up with you. When convenient, please email us at [email protected], so we can reach out securely. Thank you.
Negative experience: She refused to serve my family, telling me my AAA membership cannot be honored there. Wasted my time and trip. I found out later from a different branch that there is no such thing - aaa membership is same everywhere and we shouldn’t be discriminated. That was total bs what she told me . We’ve been aaa members for over 20 years, this is absurd.

Fantastic experience: Came in to get some documents notarized because Chase Bank (With an Appointment) couldn't do it because of a policy. Called them while driving there and they said they could do it without an appointment. Due to COVID-19, they only had 3 people and all were wearing masks and very courteous. There wasn't a line and they were happy to help immediately without any hesitation. Very pleased with everyone there! I would recommend for anyone needing their service.
Thanks for the detailed review PixelPlayz. We appreciate your business and look forward to assisting you again in the future!
Fantastic experience: I was in and out with a new license. Much better than waiting in long lines at the DMV!
We appreciate your kind words, Ben! Thank you for your feedback and we appreciate you being a AAA Member!
Fantastic experience: When you need them they are there ! I also get maps as a backup to when the GPS goes out. Hard to believe hard copy maps still have a place in today's world. The also offer free ( to members ) driving courses that save me insurance $$$. Deffinately worth the money.

Negative experience: 3 bad experiences with AAA means I'm done with them. #1 needed a tow but was outside of my coverage area, # 2 made an appointment to talk to an agent about a destination wedding and the agent did not show or call to cancel, #3 went to buy movie tickets and could of bought them for less at Costco.
Fantastic experience: Great as usual, staff couldn't be nicer.
Fantastic experience: I love the AAA in Stamford! Went there last week to pick up a discounted movie tickets for my step son’s Christmas present. I also was informed that I can get an American Express gift card in a discounted price as well. So what a great day it was for me! I felt like it was a one stop shopping. All the staff there are very friendly and courteous! Regardless how busy it is, they remain calm! So shout out to AAA Stamford branch!!!
Fantastic experience: Kind, friendly, informative, easy, perfect customer service.
Positive experience: Wonderful AAA office. The staff is very pleasant and helpful; they will go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need and have all your questions answered. The only down side to this office is that it can get very crowded, especially in the middle of the day. I guess everyone else around here likes it as much as I do!
Negative experience: called twice was put on hold for one ten minutes both times, and then was him up on. waiting now at.local office for over 20 minutes and there are 5 people still ahead of me with no air conditioning.
Fantastic experience: I've used the Stamford office many times for trip books and maps. The staff is always very helpful and accommodating.
Fantastic experience: Simply stated: "Just Marvelous"
Fantastic experience: Stopped renewing CT licences effective Jan 17, Staffs are very helping advised further how to handle the situation. Facility is neat and clean.
Fantastic experience: Very knowledgable and helpful and pleasant woman helped me.
Fantastic experience: Staff is always helpful. Booked a great Alaskan cruise here. Travel agent was extremely helpful. Discount movie theater tickets available for members. Passport photos cost $8.
Fantastic experience: Opposite of DMV. Friendly and helpful staff.
Fantastic experience: I always go first thing in the morning and find no lines. Staff always friendly and helpful. I got an IDP in about ten minutes. They have photo services on site as well, very useful. They have also handled my IDP through a mail-in request and when there was an issue, they called my italian cell phone to ask me for clarity. I really appreciated their attention to detail and qucik service and the IDP arrived to Italy incredibly fast!
Fantastic experience: Took my mom in a wheelchair for her license renewal. So pleasant!! What a sane place to go, just as I remember it 2 years ago when I went.
Fantastic experience: Great staff very nice and helpful
Negative experience: don't try to call them, you can't get by their lousy automated answering system
Hi. We are sorry to hear about your experience. We’d like to have our Member Relations department follow up with you and would appreciate it if you would email the best phone number to reach you at to [email protected]
Fantastic experience: Renewed my Driver's License at the Stamford AAA office and was very happy with the experience. Very pleasant and efficient service.
Fantastic experience: Fast, friendly service
Fantastic experience: By buying tickets at AAA, I really saved on our outing to Lake Compounce.
Fantastic experience: FANTASTIC! Michael and his team made my license renewal a breeze. No muss, no fuss. Quick and easy. They even let me see my picture BEFORE printing it! DMV needs to take a few lessons from Michael and his team. Thanks again for a perfect experience!
Positive experience: Fast and very efficient
Fantastic experience: Very helpful, and even helped me save on my daughter's new membership as a new driver. Its reassuring to know that AAA is there if and when she ever needs them.
Fantastic experience: The travel adviser Deborah T. was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I went from work on my lunch hour and she was kind enough to see me right away. Her advice made for a very safe and memorable trip! The investment of one hour's time was well worth it. Stamford AAA is terrific!
Fantastic experience: I used the AAA office in Stamford for the first time today to renew my license. What a pleasant experience! Everyone on staff was helpful and knowledgeable... and smiling! Definitely worth utilizing AAA for DMV services!
Fantastic experience: The line at the door, prior to the opening a Saturday morning, was quite impressive. Nevertheless, every client was treated with great professionalism and courtesy. The bottleneck, for renewing a Driver License, is the single computer available for processing the document. I would recommend AAA over the DMV office.
Fantastic experience: Replaced a lost license here. Beats DMV by a mile. Fast, Friendly service. Was taken care of right away, whole process took 15 minutes.
Fantastic experience: Great service. Passport photos and a license renewal were a breeze. Pleasant staff. Be forewarned - busy during lunch hours.
Fantastic experience: I renewed my CT drivers license at AAA of Stamford. It was a delightful experience - short wait times, helpful and cheerful staff, and I was in and out of there in under 30 minutes.
Fantastic experience: The person who worked with me was incredibly friendly, and you could tell he genuinely loved helping people. He turned the otherwise menial task of renewing a driver's license into a very pleasant experience. On top of that, he was bilingual and helped the customer after me with impeccable Spanish that was just as good as his English. Highly recommend coming here.
Fantastic experience: Amazing was able to get in and out in under 15 minutes. the dmv seems like a Mad house compared to this
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and efficient staff. Renewed my license in less than 10 minutes and saved me 30-minute round trip to Norwalk DMV.
Fantastic experience: The best option for drivers license renal by far. Even on a crowded day the staff are pleasant and service reasonably quick.
Fantastic experience: Excellent experience! Everyone was really nice and it went very fast. Very efficient yet personable. Thank you. Sure beats the DMV
Fantastic experience: Friendly, helpful, effective and timely transaction.
Fantastic experience: Fast, friendly service for license renewal. Timing could have been a factor - went there at @ 4:30pm on a weekday. Beats going to DMV in Norwalk.
Fantastic experience: Renewed my drivers license in about 20 minutes. Fastest renewal time ever and much easier than going to the DMV. Staff were knowledgeable and polite. Was also able to pick up a trip tik for my mother's upcoming road trip to Texas at the same time. Overall excellent experience and service.
Positive experience: Quick, easy, makes the annual dues worth the money. A bit more interpersonal communication and customer focus would have made it 5-star, but the time-savings is priceless.
Negative experience: It was worse than any experience I've ever had at the DMV. It was not easier and I will never go there again. First off, there was no order so after my passport was passed along for a new license, people were being called at random. When it finally came to be my turn, it had been an hour an a half (I went at 11:45 am on a weekday). On top of that, the staffer was rude and actually said to me "Better make sure you can actually hold onto your card this time." This was rude and completely inconsiderate of the fact that I had not simply lost it, but my wallet was stolen, which was already an extremely upsetting experience as it was.
Fantastic experience: I stopped into the office on High Ridge in Stamford to see if they had a map of CT. I received professional service and received the help I needed. I have also stopped in to ask questions about how to renew my passport and once again the service was helpful and courteous. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: excellent experience - very knowledgeable and well trained staff - the manager Michael is terrific (very customer oriented and very pleasant).
Positive experience: Great service for license renewal. In and out in no time without hassle of DMV!!!
Fantastic experience: Renewed my license at AAA and got the verified one. I made sure I had the proper paperwork with me in advance, and the process was a breeze. One person was in front of me in line. The gentleman who helped me had a great sense of human and I was laughing the whole time. The photo woman even let me look at the picture and asked if it was alright. Very kind, quick, convenient and SO much better than waiting at the DMV!
Fantastic experience: I went into AAA on High Ridge Road in Stamford to renew my drivers license. I was helped in a timely manner and all went smoothly. So much better than any experience at the DMV.
Fantastic experience: As a AAA member I looked into my license renewal at the local office, well it was the best, fastest, accurate, awesome experience I have every had to renew my license. The staff is so pleasant, helpful and most of all they know how to get the job done correctly. Special thanks to the great staff!
Positive experience: Good location with friendly service. Makes getting your license renewed really easy and pleasant. Bright, neat office with people to answer questions about AAA discounts and service. Definitely enjoy having this AAA office in the area.
Positive experience: I decided to have my passport photos taken at the local Stamford CT branch. It was quick and painless. In and out within 15 minutes. Would recommend the service to anyone..!
Fantastic experience: I went to AAA to renew my license. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful and efficient. I was in and out of there in 15 minutes. Its hard to find good customer service these days, thank you to the Stamford AAA team for reinforcing that good customer service still exists! I would recommend anyone to not only join AAA if they are not a member, but going into the High Ridge Rd. branch to see what they have to offer!
Fantastic experience: Wow, renewing a drivers license is now pleasant! The AAA facility was efficient, fast and friendly.
Fantastic experience: Went to get my Driver's license renewed. Staff was helpful, process was quick, even on a Saturday morning. Office is much cleaner and more comfortable that any DMV I've been to. I wish I could use them for all my DMV needs!
Negative experience: Been a Triple A member for many years, went to this office to renew my license with a verified type, in the morning system was down, returned in the afternoon with all required documents (Valid USA passport, Valid CT Driver's license, current CT DMV reg in my name and official photo ID ) Totally incompetent. Went to Norwalk DMV office, same documents in and out under 15 minutes. Hey triple A starting thinking outside the box. NEVER AGAIN.
Negative experience: Went in on a weekday morning to pick up discount movie tickets. Had to wait almost 45 minutes as the two people at the counter were helping two different parties with very detailed needs. Maybe AAA needs an express counter for people who can be served in under 1 minute. Or how about automating stuff like movie tickets - enter your AAA ID, credit card # and get your tickets dispensed - probably too 21st century for AAA.
Fantastic experience: Love this office. The staff is always helpful with great maps, guides and suggestions. These materials were especially helpful as we didn't use our phones while in Canada. Amazing how reliant we've become on the smart phones but the maps & quides were great and helped get us where we need to be.
Fantastic experience: Quick and easy, no issues, the customer rep was courteous and answered all of my questions, I was out of there in 7 minutes!
Fantastic experience: service was good, fast and efficient
Fantastic experience: AAA in Stamford is the best. Even though we have GPS we ALWAYS get maps and guide books from AAA. And this trip especially, I'm glad we had them. GPS always has glitches and we refer to the maps often. More peace of mind while trying to have a relaxing time. We love that the guide books give ratings for services and more variety of places to visit or eat. The gentleman who assisted us was very pleasant, and helpful, and gave us extra tips about the area we were visiting too. Service was super fast and while I was there I stocked up on discounted local movie theater tickets! This AAA office a real asset!
Fantastic experience: Went into the AAA office in Stamford, to pick up some maps for an upcoming vacation. Very helpful associate gave me some 'extra' brochures that she knew of for the area. Many people were there getting driver's license pictures. So much easier than going to the Motor Vehicle Office. Give it a try...
