Warning Breakdown Cover & Pets
For the past few years through The Caravan Club, I have been a member of Green Flag Breakdown Service. This cover is in addition to Vehicle Manufacture Backed Recovery Scheme. I have done this so, in the unlikely event of a Breakdown I am certain that my
Caravan will also get recovered.
A friend of mine alerted me to the situation regarding Pets.
When taking out the Cover, I never gave a thought to my Dog. To my utter amazement it was confirmed by Green Flag, that in the event of a Breakdown it is down to the discretion of the Recovery Vehicles Driver, as to whether or not he will allow the Dog in
his Cab. Green Flag stated that if the Recovery Driver refused to take the Dog, it would be up to me to make alternative arrangements! How….on the Hard Shoulder of the Motorway, like that’s going to happen?
Without spending all Day on the phone it would appear that this is now common practice amongst most Recovery Companies. If you have a Pet perhaps it might be worth checking your cover??
