Hi all
The time has come to start the insurance search again.
When we changed our RV our present insurer (RH Specialists) advised us that we no longer qualified for the "included on every policy" recovery service. They had not reduced the price of their policy to reflect the massive reduction in policy benefit so to me this equated to a huge policy price increase. I hate it when insurance companies slide their huge increases in under the carpet like that, and their web page still shows "Breakdown & Recovery service all policies include recovery on a European wide basis" as a benefit, Link Removed.....
I find this very misleading and I did inform them of this glaring mistake when I spoke to them back in October of 2007 (I am sure that they have not been too busy to alter it?????), anyway the upshot is that we will not be renewing with them because of this, it is such a shame as I have had dealings with RH for years, especially with their Classic Car Division.
I contacted Caravan Guard (who have a link on the Travelworld website) and they have just called me back and offered me a policy for £742.25, this is for Fully Comp, two named drivers, 4 years no claims, £1000 windscreen limit, UK and Euro breakdown cover (no size or weight issues) £3K for personal kit etc and £1K for a towed trailer. I thought this was expensive and said as much, the person then offered a discount down to £669ish and said she would send out the quote for me to review......
I am also waiting for Safeguard (who advertise on our site) to contact me with their offering and when I get it I will let you all know what it is. I did contact Sureterm Direct a while ago but they seem to be having trouble replying to my request for further information about their recovery offering, I will resurrect this inquiry soon as they have obviously "forgotten"
This should be easy and straightforward....................................Shouldn't it?????????????????????????
