So our Platinum plan expires in a couple of weeks. We won't go on the road with our Class A for about 6 months.I asked a rep about letting our plan expire....and signing up as a new member for $114.95 in lieu of $149.95 now. The answer was NO...There has to be a 24 month lapse before I can be a "new member".Sound right ?

if thats right were being ripped off for being a old member.

It's pretty much that with with everything. If you are a new member you get a bit lower rate. Once you've passed that initial period rates go up. Two years sounds about right for "industry standard."When we had DirectTV and decided to switch to DishTV so we could get lower rates for being a new member, the service install guy told us to stay with DishTV for 2 years then switch back to DirectTV. You'll be a new member for one year, then have to pay the higher price. You have to drop out at least 2 years to come back as a new member again. He said, keep switching back and forth every two years, that's the best you can get.After our 2 year contract with DishTV, we finally dropped them all and never went back. We got tired of price gouging and constant raising prices. We just do over-the-air television now and a $10 a month for Netflix. So, the 2 year, 24 month wait period sounds about right! Their again, their company, their rules!

They make the rules. Honestly, with the unlimited towing to the nearest qualified and willing service center, it's hard to beat the price. I think compared to the alternatives, they have the best overall service. I've used it for everything from towing RVs, to dead battery boosts in non-RVs and they've always been prompt and efficient, and the independent service provider (tow truck dudes) have been the same. No questions asked.

What about adding roadside assistance through your rv insurance company? Ours costs $40.00 through Geico.

We don't use good Sam roadside, we use another, but you don't need to be RVing to use it.

Can I let our membership expire..and join again later ?

Good way to reward loyalty. End up with PO'd customers, MUCH harder to ever win back when they jump ship.

Decisions made by people with short term goals in mind and limited career life- let the "next guy" deal with it. :R

Nothing wrong with lying. Everyone does it, especially IMPORTANT people.
