In the early hours of 11th November, we had our 4 month old, top of the range twin axle caravan stolen by a gang of five very “professional” thieves carrying massive crow bars. They all wore balaclavas, and totally ignored the cctv cameras dotted around the storage site. They smashed through electric barriers, and gemmied off wheel and hitch locks, on both ours, and another similar nearly new caravan, removing the alarm and tracker boxes leaving them on the ground. They then drove off into the night using two vans with no number plates.  The police followed up, reviewed the cctv footage and declared there was nothing further they could do. Luckily we were insured new for old with the Caravan Clubs insurers, and their treatment of us and our claim has been absolutely first class. Their Loss Adjuster was very supportive, and gave us complete confidence. As a result, four weeks and three days from the day of the theft, payment was made in full,and we have our replacement 2020 model arriving in January. I could not recommend the CAMC insurance highly enough, they were absolutely magnificent.

disagree, my only point is, that i have made clear all along, is that if you dont like the product walk away, no point Googling worthless bits of legal jargon posting on here and trying to pick holes in the product, it is what it is and it aint going to change any time soon,

At no time have I tried to pick holes Rufs. I do like the product but walked for other reasons as stated. As for 'worthless bits of legal Jargon' I did my research back at the start of November on Government websites including FOS and FSA not on social media or spurious sites; obviously you did not as you felt no need and are well able to criticise without doing so.

life is too short to worry about all that research and regulators, keep it simple, buy a product, and do what it says on the tin, then you wont need a FOS, FSA or whatever other fancy name they dream up. Worked for me over the past 55 years of needing my own insurance.laughing

Yea and life's too short to trust ones property to an organisation that says it may compensate you, and as someone who has had experience of a dispute with the said organisation  my trust is sadly lacking.

As I have said if an organisation cannot be trusted they to me are dishonest and need regulating.

Really is the not being regulated not picking a hole.

No. The fact that the policy is not regulated is simply a fact. It does not make it a bad product if if one is happy for an unregulated product.
