Am I insured if I cancel Club membership?

JayEss

I've been reading the paperwork and it's not very clear. 

It says that you need to be a member to take out insurance which I was at the time but my club membership and insurance renewal dates are several months apart and I will have cancelled my club membership whilst still insured. 

Has anyone come across this situation?  I'm happy enough to insure elsewhere and cancel my policy through the club but if I don't have to it's better still.

Hmm...just looked at insurance at the top of the page and it says "non-members can get a quote," so maybe you are ok? haven't read anymore, just that bit.

JayEss

That raised my hopes but lower down it says you have to join before they process the application.

Well I've been reading the paperwork as I said in my OP and it's not very clear

I would like to help you Jayess as we have CC insurance and I could peruse ours, but I'm staying by the fan heater just now trying to keep warm!

JayEss

Don't worry brue and keep warm. I'm sure a phone call on Monday will get me the answer

Hope you realise, JayEss, that the CC caravan policy does not give return of premium for mid term cancellation, so may be cheaper option to renew your membership on minimum basis and move your insurance at renewal. Just a thought.

That's one of the options I'm thinking of but I think I'd lose less than the membership fee if I did cancel as the premium isn't much on our 10 year old van.

I checked this out with the other club as we were insured with them but no longer members and there were no problems.

Renewals brought a higher premium though.

Always worth asking the insurers if you are in doubt about anything.

I am sorry to hear that you are obviously considering leaving the CC with the subsequent loss of your input to this forum...

I believe your attention to the Broadway fiasco was valuable

JayEss

Thanks pennyandsteve. 

I will be able to contribute as a non member though I believe but I'm not sure if I'll be able to retain this account. If not I'll be easily identifiable

Morning JayEss

I think you are covered until the end of the policy, but I will pass this to one of my colleagues to confirm .

JayEss

Thanks Hazel 

Jean

Your insurance will be valid until the renewal date. If you have cancelled Club membership during the insurance policy year, you will need to make alternative arrangements at renewal.

Thanks Jean. That gives me time to look around
