I was leaving work around 8pm and my car just clicked at me, no lights no nothing, and of course I had left my portable jump starter at home like an idiot. My first thought was to call for car towing to get it to a garage but then I remembered some places will actually come to you and swap the battery on the spot which sounds way less painful than waiting for a flatbed and then sitting around a shop for an hour. I found BatteryZoneUAE while I was stuck there and saw they do mobile service which honestly saved me because the thought of paying for a tow plus the battery plus labor was making my head hurt. Has anyone here actually used their roadside replacement or did I just get lucky that they had someone nearby? Just curious if this is normal here because back home you basically had no choice but to get dragged to the nearest garage whether you liked it or not.
