On a recent holiday to a caravan club site the lease car I drive broke down.Not a problem i thought and called the breakdown services who duly towed the vehicle to a local garage several miles away.I then phoned the lease company for a replacement to be told it wasnt their policy to deliver a car to a caravan site.Even after i explained to them this was the most recognised club in the UK which i was a member of and the fact i was already looking after one of their vehicles and had been doing for years happily driving around in caravan sites with no problem they refused and reiterated it wasnt company policy.Has anyone else encounted a problem like this as im still puzzled as to why.I unfortionatly had to pick it up from a hotel car park which was bizzare as i wasnt staying there and as it took them an hour longer to deliver it i was subject to survalence from the hotel manager who wondered why i was sat around in his car park .It made me feel like a criminal.To add insult to injury i then opened my copy of the club magazine to see the same lease company advertising their services in on a full page spread!!!!

Timpsonboy.......unless you post something supporting the CC you will normally be shouted down by a few regulars on this forum.

IanH - there are many posts on this forum which question the policies of the Caravan Club. And members make their points both for and against. All OK if made within within the Community Guidelines.

If you feel anyone is being "shouted down" - please contact the Community Manager to let her know of your concerns.

Cheers

Done as you suggested, Bugs.

No doubt you will be providing the same advice in an impartial way to others, when needed......

Cheers,

Ian

Apologies to Timpsonboy - I did ask 6 or 7 posts ago for folks to allow your discussion to get back on topic, but sadly as you can see, some find that difficult.

I'm therefore temporarily closing this discussion and referring it to the Community Manager for review.
