FYI
There was an on-going discussion on the FMCA Forum about this subject, where many asked "What's up with that?". I for one am staying with Coach-Net, who had given us very good service for 7 years and not making the change. Nor am I paying the amount GS Roadservice notified me that I owed to them to "re-new" after a "free year's membership" that was given to GS Extended Warranted subscribers last year.
The FMCA Staff answer in Dec 17 under the topic heading "FMCA Coach-Net Benefit" was:
"Thanks for your questions regarding RV RoadHelp. Unfortunately, Coach Net severed the relationship with FMCA earlier this year (March 2013) when their business model changed to more of a dealer driven program.
FMCA was not, and is not, in a position to become a sales agent for a roadside service product. While we were disappointed in the decision by Coach Net to terminate the relationship, we understood that it was a business decision on their end, and a decision we had to make, as well.
In researching roadside service programs available to motorhome enthusiasts, we found the RV RoadHelp program to be a very good program, providing a few features we did not have with the previous program. The initial pricing of $69.95 for FMCA members is also a nice way to try out this new program."
