Subject:Esurance blacklist for VW Westfalia campers!
From:Karl Mullendore

Folks, I've had my auto insurance through Esurance for a few years now
on my Westy (full camper). Recently, I received a request to 'update my
info' on the cars I have insured with them. When they 'discovered' that
my Westy has cooking facilities, they said they could "no longer insure"
that vehicle and that I would need to find other insurance elsewhere. I
sent multiple requests for dialog with those that make the decisions on
what is insurable vs non-insurable, no response whatsoever. I am at a
loss as to how in the world having a stove in my van could possibly
affect it's insurability. SO, if there is anyone else here insured with
these folks, beware, when they find out you may be looking for insurance
elsewhere. I'd enjoy compiling a list of folks who are insured with
them, no names, just year/make/model would be fine. The strange thing
is, EVERY other company I've gotten a quote from has stated 'no problem'
with insuring the campers, even when I state that it has a kitchen. So
I'm wondering why  Esurance is singling out one vehicle?

Second part: I'd like to hear some names of insurance companies anyone
is pleased with, ones with great customer service, low rates, etc. State
Farm, Progressive, Geico already have some serious 'red flags' in the
customer service and payment of damages areas from feedback I've read
and heard. Please feel free to p-mail me with your thoughts, especially
if you've found a great company to deal with. Thanks,

Karl
