Hoping to collect a new van in the next couple of weeks assuming the DVLA get round to registering it……so, I’m currently getting insurance quotes and I’m keen to know if anyone has experience of Dafeguard please?

TIA

They were okay to deal with when we took our insurance out and on renewals.
I never got to test their policy with a claim though.
Switched to Saga after 19 years with Safeguard because Safeguard would not cover us for our Moroccan trip.

Have just switched back to using Safeguard, used them for about 5 years up to about 5 years ago. Only changed at the time because my motorhome was becoming too old for them to offer cover.
Changed to a newer motorhome earlier this year and when renewal time came around they were a competitive price.
Years ago I did need to use the breakdown service with them which was and still is run through the AA, they did the job which I paid for.

We've been with Safeguard for 9 years now.
2016, MH suffered flooding in Spain. Written off immediately as biohazard.
Within 2 days we were given option of flights home or hire cars back home. They arranged (via AA European) taxi to Hire depot at Marbella, all three hire cars(1 for each country) taxi from Figueres to Perpignan to switch cars. They contacted us by phone each day we travelled to check All OK. Paid out on insurance with absolutely no hassle or haggling about 40 days(including Xmas) after flooding.
As ever always check what you are buying with insurance and it fits what you need.
Enjoy your new MH (y)

I only realised on renewal with safeguard that I wasn't covered 3rd party to drive other people's vehicles. Got this with LV much cheaper. Haven't claimed with either.
