Camper Insurance Bungle

**123rover50** · 13th August 2014, 03:13 PM

This was for Third party with Fire and Theft to.$5000.
They got back to me today saying sorry for the mistake . It was a computer problem.
The emailed a new renewal.
This time the Land Cruiser has gone but I now have a 2011 Discovery 4 door 5 litre V8.
Where did that come from?
Funny its got the same rego number and Vin as the 6X6 Camper

This time I scanned this years policy and sent it back saying this is what I have just copy it to the Renewal.

Wonder what they will do now.

Could be they should be practicing bun fights.
I don't think I would give them ANY of my hard earned.
Hate to think what would happen if you ever had to make a claim

He gets bomb insurance with fire and theft on his EL Falcon.

When I first got my D1 I paid 16K and I got straight bomb without fire and theft.

Who do you use?
Just in case I dip out with the renewal as they have not replied yet.
PM me if you like.
Thanks.

I use APIA. It happened many years ago by default. I was with some one else, can't remember who, when they were taken over by APIA.

Update. I had to phone them again. As they dont have 6x6 Land Rover models in their data base they cant match it so said they cant insure it beyond the current expiry date.
This is AAMI, supposed to be a big company.
I said there are hundreds of 6x6 Landies around now ex Army etc but no go. Not in the data base we cant insure it.
What are all you other 6x6 owners doing for insurance?

Don't Shannons specialize in unusual vehicles? Might be worth a call.

Yes, We have the Tickford and Royal Review Insured with them.
However all the other outfits we tried wont touch us and refer us to CIL.
They specialise in Campers and Motorhomes but wont do stand alone TP so we are going for Comprehensive. This is probably a good thing anyway.

They seem happy to do it but need some photos.
