Caravan Insurance Recommendations.

Bit of a dilema? We are approaching Insurance Renewal time. This last year we have used C&MC along with Membership tossed in because Saga withdrew from Caravan Insurance who we had been with for many years. We had an issue last September that we had to make a claim for, a substantial one. We are C&C members and have been for a good few years, mainly because their THS's suit us. Are there any recommends who we can use this year please?
 
Are you saying that you had an issue with CMHC insurance last year, or that an issue led you to make a claim?

I tended to only use CMHC or CCC dependant on quotation as both have good reports in dealing with claims. CaravanGuard are mentioned regularly the Forum but not in relation to how well or otherwise they deal with claims. That to my mind is a key criteria choosing an insurer.

I was always happy with CAHC for many many years and can recomend them from a claim handling point of view. I had a few smallish claims and one very large one, £20,000ish. Very professional and none were held against me in subsequent years. But I think I paid a premium for that.

After going seasonal they were no longer competitive.

No, we had no problem with CMHC, it was a small claim regards the caravan.
 
Caravan Guard here, had a £3k claim last year, paid out instantly and handled exceptionally well*. My premium didn't go up this year so win win.

* They are still chasing the other party who is being really obstructive even though he was at fault.
 
Been with CAMC arranged caravan insurance for decades. Not the cheapest but when the claim happens they are simply the best. Three years ago we had a hefty bash. They and their engineer dealt with the whole repair so painlessly and stress free. The repairer, Martin Lovell and his son Sam did a brilliant job.
Note also the CAMC cover tends to be far more flexible and broader in range than the rest.

MJ Lovells are superb.
I snapped the jockey wheel handle off when “nipping it up” outside our house in Oxfordshire when we were just about to set off to Old Oaks near Glastonbury for two weeks.
Panic stricken and embarrassed, ( it was only our second time going away with a caravan), I rang the dealer where we got it from to get some advice and they said try to find somewhere enroute to get the repair done.
Quick search and I found them, called them and they agreed to move other work to help us out.
We got to them about 2 pm on the day ( it was a Saturday), and they did it for us in 40 minutes….. they charged me £42!!!
I gave them £20 on top of that as a thanks for helping us out in our hour of need.
They saved our holiday, and I went back to them to get new drums and brakes last year.

We moved from CAMC to Ripe (Aviva underwriters).
No complaints to date and just received this year's renewal notice and it's gone up by a whole pound!

Have they dealt with a claim yet ? Many reviews give high marks to insurers but in reality folks are just reviewing how easy it is to take out the insurance. Real info on performance can be obtained from the Ombudsman site/FCA.
