AAA Thanks for nothing

[SpyderAnn01]

I went to the AAA office today for a reimbursement. They were apologetic. The guy who helped us asked me for my email address and when he read it back to me instead of meyer he said miller. I said "or Meyer" and he said "I'm dyslexic" I guess you must be dyslexic to work at AAA. :banghead:

On the AMA coverage someone said 35 miles - that won't get you from one town to the next in most of the areas that I travel in. Same thing (or worse) with Progressive they cover up to 15 miles. Pretty worthless. I'll check out Good Sam next year because I definitely won't go with AAA again.

Oh, they told me it would be at least 20 days for reimbursement. I said, that is probably as long as I would have waited for your flat bed to show up. :gaah:

20 days? WTF. Back when I had Hate Farm, they would cut me a check on the spot for towing reimbursement.

I being an old fart, have AARP Formost Ins. and it says "a reasonable amount for towing & labor".

They didn't have a problem with the amount but said it will take 20 days for reimbursement. :yikes:

Coach Net has three tiers of policies in two groups (towable or motorized RV) They don't check to see that you actually have an RV IIRC. The towable version is cheaper, Limited is $59 a year, Basic is $79, and Premier is $139. Starting at the basic level, you get: no limits on towing, tire assistance, battery boost, lockout, emergency fuel/fluid delivery, and winching. At premier you get: all-inclusive coverage for the member and family for the RV and all other personal vehicles owned, rented, borrowed, or leased. That also includes trailers. Where will they tow to? Your disabled vehicle will be towed to the nearest repair facility qualified to repair your vehicle.

So to cover all your vehicles and all your family you get the Premier package, 139 for towable RVs, 159 for motor homes.

roadside assist

I had CAA which is a sister plan for Canada of AAA. I had so much problems with them including would not cover US, you have to pay the bill and get credited when you get back to Canada. I ended up cancelling it a few years back. I joined Good Sam this year mainly for the trip to Alaska. I got the Good Sam Platinum plan which is there best plan which covers everything. The rate is $139.95 for one year or $114.95 per year on a 3 year plan which I took. The towing reads,
There are no pre-set mileage or dollar limit.When you call for service, Good Sam Platinum Roadside Assistance pays 100% of the towing fees for the delivery of your vehicle to the nearest professional service center capable and willing to repair your vehicle. Sounds too good to be true but I took the quote right from there book. Hope this helps
