It may include car help much like AAA in the U.S., but it also provides insurance for emergency health and household help (fire, plumbing, damage, etc.) We urge you to check on this insurance by contacting your cell phone provider. Be sure you know how to use all the services that LOCATEL provides. If you do not want the insurance, you can cancel that portion of your cellular payment, be it a monthly contract or pay-as-you-use telephone service. Some helpful apps for Mexico City:
