Posted on 18/07/2018 22:42 by DSBThere is a difference.
Mayday is a policy with the Caravan And Motorhome Club. The CAMC use the Green Flag network to carry out the terms of their policy. If you take out your policy with the Green Flag direct, your policy is different and so your cover will be different. The cover supplied by MayDay is specifically designed for the caravanner. It includes things like 'double cover': if you break down while towing, on the way to a pre-booked site the policy entitles you to be taken to the site, and if your car cannot be repaired, they will tow you back home again at the e d of your holiday. Also, if your Caravan breaks down that will be attended to and recovered if it can't be repaired etc.
Always check the details of all cover as there are different levels of cover with both May day and Green Flag.

Easy, the case you quote is a simple ‘day job’. No garage in the Glasgow area could touch our van for 3 weeks. Sleep and live on a garage forecourt for that time? Hardly!

I have been an RAC member for 12 years (and most recently an RAC Arrival member). I have breakdown cover for 4 cars plus caravan. Every year they jack up the premium, and every year I ring them up and threaten to leave.....and they reduce the price! This year my RAC Arrival premium has increased from £220 to £329. I sent them two emails asking for an explanation (couldn't bear the call centre waiting time). Got no reply. Rang Mayday; got the same cover for £186. I have emailed RAC to cancel my renewal (don't expect I'll get a reply). That's customer loyalty for you!

Ensure whoever you choose will cover you if theres a problem with your caravan whilst towing. That may seem obvious but some policies might only cover you if your car breaks down whilst you're towing, and not if theres a caravan fault such a caravan tyre blowout, or accident where only your caravan is damaged.
I've always remained with Caravan Club Mayday with Greenflag as if you breakdown whilst enrolee to a CC site, they recover you and your caravan and take you to the CC site, and then take your car to a garage for repair. If your car isn't repaired at the end of your holiday they take you and your caravan home.
