Hi All

Anyone with Caravan Guard Insurance, are they any good as the quote that they have given to me is about 70 pound's less than theCaravan Club,or is it if it sound's to good to be true it probably is

Hi John, I have today insured our van with caravan guard, I could of got it slightly cheaper elsewhere but the person I spoke to was so helpfull unlike some of the other companies i tried, heres hoping it all goes well and they live up to their reputation.

hi john we are with caravan guard all ok a the moment but i guess you only find out about insurance companies when you make a claim?        and we have not made a claim  but there quotes are really good

Many thank's for that but i am still unsure what to do the thing that swing's me to the Carvan Club quote is that if i am taken ill on site they will get my car and caravan home for me, so that's probably worth the extra 70 pound's

We have Caravan Guard, had them for 3 years now, but never made a claim.  They insisted that we had a Tracker fitted last year to the new van though.

I insured our new van with them this year, no request to fit a tracker though.

As for getting you and van home if you're ill - is that a big risk for you? if so then £70 would be worth it. Otherwise you might find you have an equivalent facility on your car insurance.

I was with Caravan Guard last year and they insisted on us fitting an alarm (just a £5 one from Argos!!??), and as it was not behind a locked gate (stored at a friends house in their garden, out of general sight), we had to have a chain and padlock it to a permanent fitting.  A right palaver and more messing about on the floor fitting it round the chasis.  Re quoted this year, but Caravan Club was a few pounds cheaper and did not insist on the alarm (doesnt work anyway!) and they werent interested in the chain!  We have gone with the CC as I just felt happier with the individuals I spoke to.
