Hello everyone, i'm new to the site and indeed motorhomes! i've decided to jump in the deep end and get myself one of the big american RV's to go travelling in.
I got made redundant as a care worker mid december last year and thought i'd use the free time to visit warmer climes until summer!
the problem i have this: i was recommended NFU by the chap selling the RV, so i contacted them for cover, only to be refused as i'm now unemployed.
I'm 45, never had an accident, never had points or fines, and have been driving since 1982! so i was surprised to say the least at being refused.
NFU said they have to refer me to the underwriter to be approved, but the lady didn't sound optimistic.
Has anyone ever heard of anything like this? as it's a first for me, and can anyone reccomend another insurer?
i've tried Safeguard but they wanted me to have a tracker fitted, which is hugely expensive.
i'm puzzled!
