Good Sam Enterprises I signed up for Good *** March

I signed up for Good *** March . I had to use them for the first time today and they are terrible! The customer service employees were very nice... however, it took me over 10 minutes to finally connect to someone. Not even because I was on hold.. but because the prompts just runs you in circles. The tow truck drive called to tell me he had towed the wrong vehicle (someone at a completely different address. I'm sure they were pleased!). He "confirmed" the address and gave me the name of my car as a street name. When trying to confirm my street name and give him some general directions because there are 2 roads in my town with the same name (funny...?) he kept interrupting me not letting me say anything. So, I let him put down what he thought I said since he didn't want to listen and figured he'd call back if he got lost again.I actually signed up for this company accidently. I was originally trying to sign up for AAA but accidently selected this website and didn't realize until i got the confirmation that it wasnt. BUT decided to give it a try anyway. I'm supposed to renew come this March and certainly won't be. What a terrible company. AAA is definitely the way to go... and NO I dont work for them or know anyone who does! I never had issues with them like this. It was just an overall pain in the *** today to get a simple tow.

I was left stranded for 24 hours in ***, three times I was promised a towel and I was left to fend for myself, eventually I got towed by my own expense to a facility not far from where I had broken down, isn't it amazing that I accomplished in 30 minutes what it took them 24 hours not to do.I was promised three times that a tow vehicle was on its way and three times it did not show up.The roadside service for me was a myth, filled with headaches and frustration and constant lies.I did get reimbursed for the tow, but I am out the cost of membership and 24 hours that I will never get back.Stick with AAA, at least they are honest and will tell you what is available so that you can have options.It seems that there are a lot of subcontractors working for this company, they all seem to be living in different areas and working from home which means there is not a consistent message and not consistent service.I am hoping I am the exception , however reading some of the reviews it looks like they have a pattern of sporadic service And disappointing members.Hope this helps.

This company presents itself as helpful on one hand, yet on the other, it seems deceitful. My card was declined for auto-renewal, and although I believed I had canceled the service, perhaps I hadn't. However, the email notification about the declined payment failed to mention that the company would continue attempting to charge my card until successful. They also did not reach out to me by email, phone, or postal mail to inform me they would be trying to charge my card again. To my dismay, I woke up two days after receiving the decline notification to discover that I had been charged $159.95 by the company.

Upon receiving the membership email, I noticed it included a contact email for inquiries. I sent a message and received a prompt reply instructing me to call a customer service number. The receptionist was courteous and directed me to a customer service representative. Unfortunately, the representative I spoke with was impolite and appeared to be intoxicated. She refused to provide her name, and when I explained that I had superior roadside assistance coverage through my insurance, she became dismissive and argumentative. She tried to convince me that my insurance was inferior and only interested in increasing my premiums. I insisted on a refund, not a sales pitch.

Typically, if a card is declined, the transaction does not proceed. However, this company seems to operate differently, which I believe is not in compliance with consumer protection laws. The representative abruptly put me on hold, and I was transferred to an offshore call center. The person I spoke with there was amiable and resolved the issue within two minutes. Now, I must wait three to five days for my refund, a stark contrast to the immediacy with which they withdrew the funds. Once I receive my refund, I plan to change my card number to prevent any future unauthorized charges.

Additionally, the company inundates me with promotional mail almost biweekly, which is another nuisance. After reviewing their materials, I am left with the impression of a company that is less about providing roadside assistance and more about perpetuating a questionable business model.

This joke of a company will come up with whatever reason on a whim to catch you unprepared and blindside you with any excuse not to tow your RV after you've paid for the most comprehensive and premium 5th wheel RV roadside assistance and towing plan available. Even after scrutinizing all the small print, they will invent some bizarre reason to avoid towing your RV. It's honestly embarrassing to watch them scramble and oppose you at all costs and from every angle imaginable after leading you on all day with claims of dispatching a tow service, only to have the tow truck driver inform you that Good Sam is refusing to cover it.

So I call to find out what's happening and get passed off to a manager who seems trained to handle these calls, only to tell you that you're not eligible for a tow for some contrived reason they've concocted by studying a manual and getting trained through role-playing every scenario to deny a customer service. Even after you challenge their initial reason and outwit them on their second excuse, they will persist with a third, fourth, and so on. They're a scam, and it's a shame and quite disappointing that Good Sam is even recognized as a leading company in Roadside Assistance! I thought I had done my due diligence by researching for a reliable Roadside Assistance plan for my 5th wheel RV, comparing all the small print from each leading brand's brochures and reading reviews. However, it was only after my own ordeal that I discovered the real opinions about Good Sam Roadside Assistance. This is why I am writing this review, in the hope of advising any fellow RV owner not to purchase a plan from them!

Heading home from a camping trip; about 10 miles out heading south on I-90, I got a blowout on my trailer. I pulled over to the shoulder and put on my flashers, got out and inspected the damage, got back in my truck and called my roadside assistance provider and told the dispatcher what happened and to send a tow truck to change my flat tire with my spare. I gave him my coordinates to locate me. We waited in the hot sun for 5 and a half hours. In this period of time, I called the dispatcher three different times asking when help would be arriving. The last call the dispatcher said he couldn't find anybody to help me out. Finally, I called 911 and they sent a Highway Patrol officer. The officer called a local tow service and the Tow Truck arrived in 20 Minutes and changed the tire; and the dispatcher at my roadside assistance provider couldn't help me out. I've been a Member of this roadside assistance service for a couple of decades, and this is the first time I ever had a blow out and they couldn't help me out; but they took my money all these years. I would never recommend this roadside assistance provider to anybody after my experience.

Good Sam Enterprises In August , traveling south on I-15, I collided with a deer on the road.

In August, while traveling south on I-15, I collided with a deer crossing the road. Being a member of a roadside assistance service since 2017 and having upgraded to Platinum, I called them immediately for a tow. The responder kept insisting they were not a tow service. I questioned the value of my Platinum membership if it didn't include accident towing assistance. After calling back twice over three hours for an ETA on the tow truck, I received evasive responses. Requesting a supervisor yielded no callback, and no tow truck arrived! The service stayed on the line only when State Patrol was contacted. The officer was helpful, connecting me with a tow operator who informed me the service had contacted him but refused to pay his fee. Following the tow operator's advice and escorted by the patrol car, I drove at 25 mph to a nearby park. Without these kind individuals, I would have been stranded. The roadside assistance service was unhelpful and indifferent to my situation. I plan to cancel my membership and advise against wasting money on it.

Good Roadside Assistance and Tire Protection Plan. I purchased the plan and had very bad experiences with them throughout the year of 2022. Previously, their service had been commendable, but this last year, the quality significantly declined. I encountered two separate incidents; one with a flat tire and another with a blowout caused by a pothole. On the first occasion, I waited over an hour and the roadside assistance failed to show up, prompting me to cancel the service. During the second incident with the blowout, I was left waiting for over two hours without any assistance arriving, leading a friend to come to my aid instead. Consequently, I contacted the company to cancel the service once more. After replacing my tire, I took photos and sent them along with the receipt to the company. They repeatedly requested additional pictures, but since I had left the damaged tire at the service shop, my claim was ultimately denied. It seemed they ceased communication by no longer responding to my emails. It has become apparent that they will find any reason to avoid reimbursing expenses for services that are necessary. I would advise seeking a service protection plan from a different provider to avoid disappointment and regret.

After following the automated system directions and downloading the app, I scheduled a tow on the app. With a no show and no contact 2 hours after the scheduled time, I called to find that Good Samaritan had no record of my request, even though I was looking at the confirmation on the app. Then I was told Good Samaritan would only tow to a station that could not get to my vehicle for at least three weeks. I paid out of pocket to have it towed to a provider that I knew and trusted. Repair of the fuel line was completed the next day and I was back on the road.

Goods## is a joke; they will lie and tell you anything to get you to sign up for the service protection plan. Once you have been paying for months and try to file a claim, they will find any reason to say denied, and what they do cover is not what they tell you when you sign up. I filed a claim to have a slide-out room that was malfunctioning. I called a certified RV repair technician, as required by GS. He came out, diagnosed the problem, and determined the slide-out system needed to be replaced. While he was there, I had him look at one of my air conditioning units that was not working. He wrote up a quote to repair the slide and replace the air conditioning unit. GS told me that it was best if I had more than one item; they bundle it in one claim, so I would only have to pay one deductible, which sounded good. So, as required by customer service, I had the repair technician submit the claim. They denied the air conditioning unit because there was rust on the fan motor, which is a rooftop AC on an RV. Then they approved the slide repairs but only paid a small portion of the repairs. I have a $1,000 deductible. The total repair cost was a significant amount, and after my deductible, I should have been responsible for $878, but they only agreed to pay a fraction of that, leaving me out of pocket $898. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY; FIND SOMEONE ELSE.

Good Sam Enterprises I signed up for Good Sam's Club for one year

I signed up for Good Sam's Club for one year. Right after signing up for Good Sam's Club I decided to get RV insurance through Good Sam's. While signing up for the RV insurance, I was offered Good Sam's Club membership for two years at a reduced two year price. I accepted the offer and talked to a Good Sam's Representative and cancelled the one year Good Sam's Club membership. The representative looked up my info and confirmed my one year cancellation and verified my 2 year membership. Well, when I received my Good Sam's membership card, it was good for only one year. I figured it was sent out before they noticed I had changed it to 2 years and would get an updated membership card for 2 years. I waited, but no new card was sent. I have called Good Sam's 5 times asking for an updated card. The customers services reps I speak with are able to see that I have called several times and they keep telling me new cards have been sent, however, I have never received a new card. I always verify the address they say they are sending the cards to and it is always correct. It has been 9 months of trying to get an updated card that shows I am paid for 2 years. We are about to retire and plan to travel across the US and I had planned to use the card to get gas discounts. By the time we hit the road, my one year membership will be expired and I won't be able to get the gas discounts I bought the membership for. I plan to call again and ask for a supervisor to resolve this, but this is ridiculous that I have had to call so many times and still don't have what I paid for.

The absolute worst, they take hours upon hours to help. When you sign up they say unlimited towing anywhere, they fail to mention they charge you, and "reimburse" you. I used the service 3 x and they canceled saying I used it too much. Stick with triple A

I purchased the Good Platinum Plan. Brakes went out on my motorhome while I was in the mountains. I called Good Platinum, and they dispatched a mobile repairman who replaced the brake master cylinder. The job was completed in one hour. The following day, I received a repair bill just shy of $2000.

I spoke with about five different representatives at Good Platinum, and they informed me that their only obligation was to facilitate contact with a service provider. They showed no concern for the manner in which I was treated. My issue is that I placed my trust in them, and in return, they sent a subpar service provider. They offered me no assistance whatsoever. After conducting some research, I discovered that the service provider had a mere 2-star rating. It is clear that they need to improve their vetting process for their providers. From my perspective, since I contacted Good Platinum and they were the ones who reached out to the service provider, they should accept responsibility for the service rendered. I have decided not to use Good Platinum's services again.

Stop! Cancel or don't purchase Good Service. Not available 24 hours. Automated message states, Good Service is open from 9am to 11pm EST, goodbye. I called at 5pm PST and a tow truck was supposedly dispatched to me. Left me stranded on the side of the road for 10 hours. The tow truck never arrived! I had to hire my own private tow service. Thankfully, I managed to fix my truck on the road before incurring a $2,000 private tow charge. I called Good Service the next day. The operator answered unprofessionally, as if I were calling someone's home. They gave me a spiel about a refund of $126.13, which would take 5-7 business days to process. Horrible experience! I originally bought the plan for RV towing. Learned my lesson, never again. Don't fall for it! Going back to my trusted three-letter roadside assistance provider!

I only had my membership for about a week when I slid off my driveway backing down a slope in our 2007 National Tropi-cal 37' diesel in a pouring rain which had saturated everything. RV ended up in my front yard sunk to the axles. It was about 4 feet from a power pole and leaning downslope about to slide further. I called Good Sam and they assured me that someone would text me on their way to winch the RV out. Never happened. Called back about 4 hours later and went through the facts with another agent. Again told that someone was on the way and I would be texted soon. Never happened. I again called back an couple of hours later and was told by a very nice lady that my claim had been escalated to supervisor level due to the fact that they could not locate a company willing to do the job. She waited with me on the phone to ensure that I did not get cut off while waiting on a supervisor. After a short wait, Supervisor Jaime got on the line and assured me she would get someone to me. Shortly thereafter I was notified by text that a wrecker was being dispatched from East Alabama Truck Repair in Wedowee, AL about an hour away. I called them and was told that the heavy wrecker was on the way. Twenty minutes later the wrecker arrived, the driver assessed the situation, quickly rigged my motorhome for winching and pulled it to safety without damage. My RV lives to camp again. My thanks to the Good Sam Supervisor Jaime, the very proficient driver from East Alabama Truck Repair, and to Good Sam for their help. A little more informational updates in the beginning would have eased my stress levels a bit but overall an A.

We broke down in traffic and told the responders it was an emergency. It took them 2 hours to get a tow truck to us. Meanwhile, half an hour before they arrived, we were rear-ended by a guy with no insurance. Yes, we called the police. They stopped but said they couldn't stick around, so they left. The frustrating part is that the guy who hit us, after us sitting there for an hour and a half, had his tow truck arrive at the same time as ours. It's not a pleasant feeling when you're in dangerous situations and they're supposed to prioritize your safety. Thankfully, no one was injured. Having been with the roadside assistance company for 15 years, I've never experienced anything like this.

Good *** is Bad. I purchased the Platinum roadside Assistance because I have two teenagers commuting 45 miles to work every day and I wanted some protection for them. We have called for a pull-out several times over the winter because my son slid off the road in icy conditions and, of course, there was the usual 2-3 hour wait when you know there are tow trucks within 30 min of the incident. Not cool, but not unexpected. Now I get a letter saying they are dropping our coverage because we've actually used their services and its not cost effective for them to serve us. Apparently there is a clause that states they can cancel service at any time for any reason, so I can't fight it, but HELLO. How many other people pay for this service for 20 years and never ever use it? Surely they can handle keeping us around. This is the risk of insurance - one of us is going to lose out. How is it ok for me to be on the losing end 100% of the time? If I don't use it, I pay anyway. If I do use it (and I paid for that, by the way), they cancel me.

The good towing plan is useless if you need anything actually repaired. Waited an hour overnight to get towed to a parking lot and charged $240 for that pleasure with the promise they would find a service location. Spent hours waiting for the name of a center but they could not even look at my motor home for weeks. So I called to at least get an estimate before sending my motor home there. They did not call back for five hours and when I called they said it might take them until tomorrow to even create an estimate. So I called Good Sam back and they gave me the run around saying because I did not give them more money I would have to pay the entire tow to my home myself. They never asked for more money after me extending my dues, paying $240 to be taken to a parking lot. This is not what they advertised.

Terrible service, claim unlimited miles but when you need a tow they force you to tow to a place of their choice usually within 1 mile and say that if you want it towed to a shop of your choice other than that place they force on you then you are required to pay for the mileage distance out of pocket even if you want your vehicle towed to your house; they say that your house is outside of the locations listed within the distance in their network for your car to be towed to and that you will have to pay for the tow mileage out of pocket. Even more they say that if the company they say is within your distance of tow range ( their network; usually ! mile ) then you need to call and find out if another shop that they say is within your tow range ( actually their range ) can work on your car. Terrible Company and should be closed down for the false advertising and misleading information they state in what they offer so they get people to purchase their service only to find out that when you need the service you don't get the service.

Good Sam Enterprises Our travel trailer's tire blew on the highway, near a small town

We have a travel trailer, and our tire blew on the highway, near a small town. Our spare tire equipment didn't work, and the blown tire was on the traffic side, which is my worst nightmare. We called a roadside assistance service and were quoted a long wait time, not ideal when huge semis are blowing past you at 80 mph. At 75 minutes with no help arrived, I called the towers number, provided by the roadside service, and my call went straight to voicemail, which was full! So I called the roadside service back, and they assigned another tow company 15 minutes later (this is a long time on the busy turnpike.) Randomly, another camper got a flat tire and pulled over in front of us and helped us change the tire. We got off the highway at the next exit, checked the tire inflation, got back on the highway, and five miles later, our other tire blew. (These tires were properly inflated and 11 months since install, so we suspect faulty tires.) Anyway, the roadside service assigned the same tower who no-showed. So I called to request another company, and meanwhile, the first tower calls, says he is 90 minutes away in another town, so he won't be coming, and he has a guy in another location, but he has six kids and won't go on the turnpike. (Yes, this is a treacherous stretch of the turnpike - I was worried for our lives.) This time, a different roadside assistance service saved us (we had a second spare.) The first roadside service was useless to us in our hour of greatest need. I later found out another service will serve campers if you pay an extra fee ($20 for us.) I wish I had known this, and I'm passing along our experience in the hopes it helps someone else. Honestly, a total nightmare and the first roadside service did nothing to help.

Good Sam Enterprises This company is a scam on one side, nice on the other

This company is a scam on one side, nice on the other. My card declined for auto renewal, I thought I had canceled, maybe not, either way the email stating the payment declined stated nothing about Good *** continuing to try my card until they could take my money, nor did they contact me via email or phone or mail that they woild be charging my card again. Wake up this morning 2 days after the decline email to find I am out $159.95 from Good ***. The membership email has an email to contact for the *** I write a message, get a message back very timely to call a number for help. Get a nice receptionist gets me to customer service...rude lady who sounds very drunk, doesn't give me her name and when I say I have road side assistance through my insurance that is better and already paid for she gets really snotty and sarcastic, arguing with about how my insurance is c*** and just wants to raise my premiums, I told her I just wanted my money back not a sales pitch. If your card declined anywhere else you don't get the product, why do they feel they can do that if a card declines, against the *** and UDAAP for sure. She places me on hold without saying anything, get "***" in out of country call center, very nice and pleasant, fixed the issue in 2 minutes, now I have to wait 3 to 5 days for my money to come back to me when they could take it in an instant. Changing my card number when I get my refund, I don't want them charging me again in a month just because they have a valid card number. Also, they send junk mail constantly, every other week trying to sell you something. This is another reason to steer clear. Reading their packets, it seems like a scam company, not at all a road side assistance company.

Good Sam Enterprises You cannot rely no them, bottom line

You cannot rely no them, bottom line. I was targeted for their service start of 2021. On review, we found no such service in my area contrary to their marketing. This is the pickle. With meaningful and committed CS in place, an adult conversation leads to closure. But what happened in months following speaks volumes. No one answering phones would "step up" and own responsibility so a pattern of he-said she-said developed whereby it became obvious part of their team (more likely all) fielded longstanding matter as if a game to grind out clock on customer deserving refund. That *** may clean up well and present airbrushed story about CS, but believe you me there is no such entity in place to facilitate a conversation between you two, pure falsehood. All fake marketing, false advertising, and they will play you like a drum: "Call this number..." [ignoring history, confirming no accountability, in effect nose thumbing you with a smile after a year of same old sheet]. To nitty-gritty, it eventually followed guidance from Complaintsboard.com to do a full refund but then waited months. So now, 5 more months later, it is resending same checks on guidance from an *** outside my residential jurisdiction. After returning to *** my admittedly overdue refund was again upchucked from its maw only through duress. Over 24 hours of continuous phone/writing complaints formed over 12 months, you can imagine my inability to understand its platform. As soon as you need it, remember by design its platform is all about one person [impossible to reach again] deferring to others for its contract (or lack of one). You will invariably find no value as "service" in this context cannot be consigned elsewhere. If you don't like being bounced over and over, good luck in Refunds. No joy will be found here. Only narratives of its empty broken promises live on here (see 9/10 Reviewers) stand & the exceptional story is probably a shill or one of its own earning a bonus.

This joke of a company will come up with whatever reason on a whim to catch you with your pants down and side blind you with any excuse NOT to tow your RV after paying for the most expensive and elite 5th wheel RV roadside assistance and TOWING plan possible. Even after reading all the small fine print details, they will come up with some off the wall reason to avoid towing your RV. It's honestly embarrassing to see them scramble and challenge you at all costs and at every angle possible that they can come up with AFTER stringing you along all dayyy by saying they're dispatching a towing company out to you only to find out from the DRIVER of the towing company to inform you that Good *** is saying they're not going to cover it. So I call to find out what is going on and get pushed off to a superior they must train to get on the phone at the end of it all only to tell you that you're not eligible for whatever reason they pull out of their a*** by studying some kind of handbook and get trained by role playing every situation possible that they can come up with to tell a customer that they're not eligible for a tow and basically tell you tough luck and leave you fked. Even after challenging them back and outsmarting them on whatever first reason they give you and outsmarting them on the second.. they will come up with a third, fourth and so on.. They're a SCAM and it's a shame and quite disappointing that Good *** is even acknowledged and known as a top brand named company when it comes to Roadside Assistance! I thought I did my homework on researching for a good quality Roadside Assistance plan for my 5th wheel RV by reading all the small fine print from each top brand *** and in they're brochures and by reading reviews but after experiencing what I've experienced, is when I finally found the REAL reviews about Good *** Roadside Assistance. That is why I am writing this review in hopes to help any fellow RV'r NOT to purchase a plan from them!

Good Sam Enterprises Good *** Companies, stay away RUN

Good *** Companies,, stay away RUN.Good ***, the nations largest RV motor club also owns *** Campers World, central coast resorts and more DO NOT join their club or buy any of their insurance. They are liars and cheats just like all *** companies.I was just woken to high wind gusts and rain and had to climb onto the roof of my motorhome to re-secure my already damaged roof. My roof was badly damaged late August from a really bad monsoon storm that torn up the back end of my motorhomes roof, I was waiting for the insurance company to get the roof fixed only to find out the Good *** insurance company is doing everything to avoid paying the claim, and I can't afford to fight them nor the money to replace the one piece fiberglass roof. The motorhome is my home, I live in it. I'm a volunteer at ***, I bought more then enough insurance to cover anything and everything.*** the damage claims representative for the Good *** insurance company *** says the roof was not maintained,, WTF.She ignored her own document adjuster that came out for 2 hours and documented all the damage and the dealer that sent an email stating that the motorhome including the roof were in excellent condition, Good *** is a bean counter company that gambles on the little guy losing.They do not want to pay $7-8,000.00 to replace the roof or any of the other damage from wind or water getting in like carpet floor, cracked shower ceiling, slide-out awnings which is all about another $3,000.00 I would take a check for the roof and walk away and do the other repairs myself, but they wont budge asking me for more proof it was maintained. It's a fiberglass roof that gets washed with soap and water and waxed like a normal car per Winnebago Motorhome maintenance recommendations.I'm hoping social media might help my situation if everyone reposted and I can get the Good *** companies on the all c*** list, who knows.Any attorneys *** off with Good *** are welcome, I'm here. Thank you

This review is of the Good *** Roadside assistance, of which I have a "Platinum Complete" $225/annual membership. Yesterday, 11/1, I called to schedule a tow for 7:30 am on 11/2 of a simple car (not our RV)Because this tow was to my Allstate collision center for an insurance claim (6 miles from my house), I had to pay an additional $28.75 for this tow because Good *** decided that I could go to a service center one mile from my home. So, I paid the fee on 11/1 in order for my request to be sent to dispatch. The representative then told me that around 6:30 am the morning of 11/2 that the tow company would call me and the tow driver would call when they are approximately 20 minutes away - by 7:30 am.Fast forward to this morning, 11/2.I called Good *** Roadside assistance at 7:30 as I never received a call from a tow truck company. I was told my call had been escalated to a supervisor and that a supervisor would call me back. I did not receive a call, so I called back at 8:04 am and spoke to another representative who told me the EXACT same thing and that a supervisor would call me back. Again, I did not receive a call so I called into Roadside Assistance again at 9:00 (my third call). Again, I was told the EXACT same thing and that a supervisor would call me back.Then I called Roadside Assistance customer service in *** (now my fourth call) and spoke with *** who got *** from dispatch on the line. He again said the same thing, that the call has been escalated to a supervisor and that they would call me.A supervisor NEVER called. However, I did receive a text message at 10:00 am from a tow company that their truck would be at my location in *** minutes. (between noon and 1 pm)I've now lost a days wages because I cannot go to work, and my adult son has lost a days wages because I need to drive him to work and cannot because of this fiasco.I have been a good *** member and a good *** roadside assistance member for a few years now and my $225 annual account is up for renewal. This experience has me reconsidering my options for road side help. Coming from a customer service background myself, I fail to understand why a "supervisor" cannot make a quick call to me to let me know whats going on so I can plan my day and plan on how to get my car to the auto body shop. ESPECIALLY since I did my due diligence in calling YESTERDAY to schedule this!

Good Sam Enterprises I want to highlight a severe issue that occurred to me, a member and a friend associated with

I want to highlight a severe issue that occurred to me, a member and a friend of mine, who are both Goodsam members in good standing. Due to the incident's outcome, we are both terminating our memberships immediately, reaching out to Complaintsboard.com, and expressing our dissatisfaction on social media regarding the poor treatment we received. For your information, the details of this transaction are recorded in your phone logs with Goodsam Roadside Assistance dispatch. I personally called Dispatch multiple times, receiving confirmation of assistance for relocating my vehicle from one location to Bowling Green, a distance of about 26 miles. A fee of $55 was charged to my credit card for this service. After these affirmative discussions and payment, we believed the arrangements were confirmed. We drove a significant distance, expecting everything was ready. For context, I was informed by Gander Mountain in August that Goodsam might relocate my coach. I started contacting your company in early September, and each time I was assured of assistance. I urge you to verify this by checking the call logs. Here is a call chronology to Roadside Assistance: September 9, 17, 19, 21. Then, on September 23, the day of our move, around 2:30 pm, as we were preparing the vehicle for transport, your dispatch called to inform me that they would not honor my request, despite accepting my payment and after multiple confirmations. I had a reference number for the service and received several text messages confirming the request was in your database. This last-minute cancellation put us in a difficult situation with the resort where the vehicle was parked, as we had to find alternative transport urgently due to the resort having rented the lot to new customers. Our current feelings towards your company are of extreme disappointment and frustration. We feel deceived and misled, which amounts to fraud. A copy of this complaint is being sent to Complaintsboard.com, and I will continue to share my negative experience with your company on social media.

Good Sam Enterprises I recently purchased a 36 Foot R

I recently purchased a 36 Foot R.V. Being new to this I also purchased some RV magazines. Those deceptive ADs for RV Roadside Assistance sure sound good. I buy some roadside assistance, just in case. I thought I read all the small print and assumed I was in good hands. Here is what happened to me. I bought the BEST Plan. "RA Platinum". This plan reads 'Best Roadside assistance available including unlimited distance towing, plus TIRE @ WHEEL ROAD HAZARD. Sound pretty good doesn't it... This past Monday on 9/21 at 2:00PM I was traveling on Rte 195 in Dartmouth,MA ( about 1 hour from my home on Cape Cod,MA) when my RV went into what Id call disaster mode. Both rear tires on the passenger rear became dislodged from the axle. THANK GOD NOBODY GOT HURT-- AND IM SO THANKFUL THIS EVENT DID NOT HURT ANY ONE ELSE. Before I pulled over I saw The hub cap flying thru the air. I got into the break down lane- very busy expressway. I wont bore you with all the emotional crap. I have "GOOD SAM" I made the call and requested ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE. What did I get " NOTHING " I was told help was on the way. I was also told I would get text messages- I got none. NOTHING... I sat there for hours. I had to make numerous calls After 2 1/2 hours I exited my RV and placed boards under my leveling jacks. I raised my RV very high. I removed both rear wheels. Should I have had to do any of this ? " absolutely not" After 3 hours I called Good Sam again. I was informed that someone would be in touch me. Moments later Good Sam informed they located a RV Mechanic and he would be calling me. Good Sam reported to me " we cover the call - you have to pay $150.00 an hour plus parts. This is what was said to me. Why not just tow me home ? Whatever I've been sitting here for 3 hours Moments later I get a call , he tells me he is a RV mechanic. Good Sam gave him my info. I explained what happened, and whats needed to fix this. This mechanic tells me " I'm in Kingston, MA" This is over an hour away. Yep This what Good Sam did for me. It gets better I'm told to call a auto parts store in Kingston, MA- order the parts and pay for them- This mechanic will grab them and head my way. OK I do as I'm told- Nothing more was discussed- no talk of money-rates ect... I figure I'm in good hands. I got GOOD SAM roadside assistance right. Its getting dark -- Its been 4 hours- A good Samaritan TOW TRUCK Driver stops. A company called Dartmouth Towing- Nothing to do with GOOD SAM. His name was "GABE. Out of the kindness he begins to repair my RV. While doing so "The so called GOOD SAM RV Mechanic arrives". It took 20 minutes. The GOOD SAM mechanic than charges me $425.00. He reports to me that he gets 2.0 hours for travel and 1.0 hours to fix. I prepaid for the parts. When I argue he knocks $50.00 off the bill. He goes on and on how GOOD SAM should have told me all this. I'm to exhausted and overwhelmed and VENMO the guy $425.00. Best part of it all - GOOD SAM sent to my location a lawn mower repair man. I am asking everyone to google this guy. Good Sam sent a guy named KEVIN RIBEIRO from Plymouth, MA. to help me When I googled the guy I learned a lot. You are not in good hands with GOOD SAM. They sent a crook to me. A lawn mower repair man. So I complained to GOOD SAM and was asked to submit a claim for reimbursement. Today I got an email from Stephanie ***. It reads "my request has been denied" If necessary and whenever possible , depending on the RV there may be a local mobile mechanic that can perform minor repairs ect... goes on why they wont do anything. Good Sam can use those words to never do anything for you. I would tell anyone that will listen, Don't believe what you read in those RV magazines about GOOD SAM. My single incident will be going to The Massachusetts Attorneys Generals Office as this company ripped me off. I did not get The Best Roadside Assistance with unlimited distance towing plus tire and wheel road hazard that I PAID FOR.

Good Sam Enterprises Goodsam.com campground website rating system.

Based on the Good Sam rating 9/9.5/8, and my Good Sam membership, I booked a reservation on July 31, 2023 via email at the I10 Kampground in Mobile Alabama.

As this was the worst campground I have been to in the last thirty years; hypodermic needles in the mens room, the front office was closed at 1 and 2 PM (even though the office sign says open 8 AM to 6 PM), half the showers and toliets were out of order and gunshots started at the campground at 2 PM.

Because my husband and I feared for our life and didn’t want hepatitis (or worse), we left the campground. As the campground didn’t meet our (or Good Sams standards) I would like a refund. Since the office was closed, I could not ask the campground directly for a refund.

Attached are pictures showing the electricity disconnected at the campground office the bathrooms, the needle and signs saying that the bathrooms and showers will be locked from 10 PM to 8 AM due to vandalism.

When was the last time this campground was reviewed by Good Sam?

This place is a meth lab advertised as a campground. I would advise good sam to pull the rating until the I10 Kampground finds new owners and the police and health department get this campground cleaned and sanitized.

Desired outcome: Refund and reimbursement for tetanus shots.

Good Sam Enterprises We have had Good *** towing insurance for six years

We have had Good *** towing insurance for six years. It is under my husband's name ***. We have tried to use it 3 times in the last two years. All three times, we have called for a tow and spent 45 minutes to an hour each time on the phone trying to get a tow. The first time, the agent set me up with a tow truck from 200 miles away even though there was a town with several tow companies only 15 miles away. When the tow truck driver found out my location, he cancelled the tow and I had to find my own truck and pay $100 out of pocket. The second time, they kept promising to call me back and never did. I finally found a tow truck myself and paid for that tow as well. The third time was UNBELIEVABLE. This time, they told my husband that we didn't have insurance and they would send a tow truck for $1500. My poor husband agreed and they charged our card before they had even found a company. That driver called and said he would pick us *** in 4 HOURS! We cancelled the tow and found one ourselves for $1000. Good *** said they would refund the charge but a week later and they haven't done so. My husband has been on the phone for a half hour and they are giving lame excuses for why they couldn't give us our money back or why they couldn't send tows the other two times. At this point, we need our $1500 back as well as ALL of the premiums we have paid for 6 years.

I joined the service and three days later, when I tried calling for assistance, I was informed that I was not a member despite numerous calls to clarify the situation. I contacted my bank and discovered that the company claimed to have provided a towing service for my car, which they never actually did. When I called again to request a refund, they had my membership listed under a different name and did not even have my address on file. They then proceeded to inform me that they would not be refunding the full amount I had paid. This situation has left me extremely frustrated and I am considering taking legal action. However, before escalating to that level, I want to give it one more try through Complaintsboard.com. Should they still refuse to resolve the issue, I will be forced to pursue further action. In the meantime, I had to spend additional money to get roadside service from my insurance company, who did provide the towing service I needed. With this experience, I see no value in maintaining a relationship with this unreliable company.

On March 28, 2022, we received an email confirming that our claim for reimbursement of towing expenses was accepted. This was to cover the costs of towing our son's car after it slid off the road due to inclement weather. After waiting over six weeks without receiving the money, I contacted Good Insurance and was informed that our claim had been reversed. We had not been notified of this change. They insisted they had called, but after reviewing my call history, there were no calls from Good Insurance. Unlike the initial communication, no email followed up either. Multiple customer service representatives assured us that our claim was valid, citing that the police had called the towing company. Ultimately, we were told that because the car went off the road, it was considered a collision, a detail that was not disclosed to us by any of the representatives.

Good Sam Enterprises Since 2015 Goodsam has automatically renewed my extended service plan and automatically withdrew my monthly premiums from my bank account

Since 2015 Goodsam has automatically renewed my extended service plan and automatically withdrew my monthly premiums from my bank account without any problems or actions by me. In *** stopped withdrawing my premiums and cancelled my account despite sending a renewal notice stating that my policy was going to renew automatically and that I needed to do nothing. Almost a year later, Goodasm sent me a notice that my policy was inactive. When I called, they said they cancelled it because I was suppose to call and renew. They also claimed they mailed a cancellation notice. Goodsam's explanation contradicted their own practice of automatic renewal, their own renewal notice, and I never received a cancellation notice by mail. Gooddsam acknowledged no cancellation notice was sent via email despite their confirmation that they had my email address. Goodsam's only explanation was that "sometimes" the renewal department cancels some policies at the 7 year ***. The representative could not explain why the renewal department indiscriminately cancels some policies at the 7 year ***. However, my policy had only been in effect for 6 years. Goodsam refused to reinstate my policy unless I paid the back fees for the months I did not have coverage because of their mistake. Or, I could purchase a new policy for three time the amount of my old policy. Goodsam should not be requiring customers to pay for their mistake.

11/25 I purchased a tire and wheel protection plan. Registration number TS with a series of digits. I drive a 2021 Mazda CX-30 but the insurance company issued the plan for a CX-3. When I had damage to my rim and attempted to use the plan, I was told I do not have a plan for this vehicle. I never owned a CX-3 and didn't want coverage for a CX-3. If the insurance company is going to refuse to cover my CX-30, then the policy should be flat cancelled and a refund issued for the full amount.

Claimed I was towed more than the national average. Called customer service. They said I was good till the end of the year. When I'm stuck on the side of the road, I'm left to fend for myself. They left me here in the middle of nowhere. I paid for a year, the refunded about half. They should have sent a certified letter. I called and confirmed a week or two earlier and they said I was good till 2023. When I'm stuck they leave me in the middle of nowhere.

Good Sam Enterprises I purchased an extended service plan from Good Sam with the purchase of a new travel trailer/fifth wheel

I purchased an extended service plan from Good Sam with the purchase of a new travel trailer/fifth wheel. The agreement clearly states 12 months manufacturer's warranty term and a 60 month (5 year) extended warranty. The trailer was purchased on 2/24 - the manufactures warranty ran to 2/24 and the extended warranty would have then begun and good through 2/24/2022. I had filed for repair work to be covered under the Good Sam extended warranty on 3/4 which Good Sam rejected with a position that the warranty had expired. I contacted Good Sam at [protected] and discussed with first a service rep and then a contract person. Both referenced an expiration date repeatedly of 2/24. This expiration date is NOT in the Good Sam term sheet and the math simply does not work. When I pointed out the math does not work, the story changed that the extended warranty runs concurrently with the manufacturers warranty which makes less sense. Why would someone pay for two concurrent warranty's with equivalent coverage? This was also not what was explained by the dealer. The Good Sam individuals then told me I would have to take it up with the dealer, that is when I ended the call. In summary, Good Sam is refusing to honor their obligations as documented in the Agreement for a 60 month (5 year) term. I believe the agreement form purposely neglects to document an expiration date (which would provide transparency to the terms) allowing Good Sam to neglect to meet its obligations for 20% of the warranty term paid for. Due to Good Sam's failure to meet its obligations, I am left with a $1,188.47 service bill as well as not receiving the benefits of an extended warranty that I paid for and that Good Sam was paid to provide.

I was unable to locate my Good Samaritan membership account online and believed it had expired. I then created a new account and purchased a 3-year membership. Subsequently, I discovered the old account and realized my initial membership was still active. I reached out to Good Samaritan via email to cancel my redundant membership, but they refused. My subsequent request to have the new membership duration added to my existing account was also ignored. They have ceased responding to my emails. At this point, I no longer seek a transfer of the new term to my original membership; instead, I am requesting a full refund of the $79.00.

We purchased a motorhome from Camping World in a city in October then traded the motorhome in 4 months later in February. Camping World has received the pay off letter from our loan Bank which was M&T bank in March. We also purchased a significant amount of extended warranties and vehicle protection plans. We have only received the gap policy refund so far, this has been going on since February 2022. I understand from the conversations with Camping World representative that we are only entitled to the pro-rated Contract as a refund now. Which should be a considerable amount.

Good Sam Enterprises Good *** Warranty and their customer service is absolutely horrendous, I am so very very unhappy and I cannot get the issue fixed

Good *** Warranty and their customer service is absolutely horrendous, I am so very very unhappy and I cannot get the issue fixed. I called in to ask questions about policy renewal and agent charged my card without permission, which is illegal. It overdrafted my account because I'm in process of changing my checking account. I called back same day to get refunded. I've now been waiting a week and refund has still not hit my account. So I'm stuck in overdraft h*** Wonder how many fees I will get accessed while waiting for them to fix their error. They sure can take your money without permission, but drag their feet to give it back. I also called to switch card on file for the auto payment each month. Rep was not able to help me, said the card changing buttons weren't available and would call me back. He has not. I called back in and rep refused to help me because guess what when I signed up for the service and paid for the full year, they failed to put my name on the account. Because they literally cannot do anything right. I get transferred to a supervisor, they said, but based on knowledge was just another rep pretending to be a supervisor. I give him the new card information to change it over, he says it was denied because it was same card that refund was issued to. Um no, totally different card numbers. How did he run the old card again? Where did he put or write my new card information? Did he write it down in order to steal it? Cuz he surely did not input the card number into the system, because he verified the old card after it was rejected. Does that make sense? I have been stolen from, lied to, given the run around, had my account not set up in my name, and now a lapse in coverage because your company cannot and will not do their job.

Today my son's car broke down six and a half hours away from home. I provided him with the contact information for a reliable service and he reached out to them. They responded by sending him a form via text message. After he completed and submitted the form, he shared screenshots with me to confirm that his request was being processed. Despite this, one hour and forty-five minutes passed without any update on the arrival of a tow truck or a callback from the service. Concerned, I attempted to contact them myself. I spent seven minutes on the phone, during which I was disconnected once and transferred twice. I expressed my frustration about my son being left stranded for over two hours without the assistance of a tow truck. I informed them that he had made alternative arrangements to have the car taken to a different mechanic and that a local family had kindly offered him a place to stay for the night. Given that the service I had paid for was not rendered, I requested a full refund. However, they informed me that they were unable to issue a refund.

On April 21st, I took my trailer in for repair work. We have a Good Sam Plan which states it will cover the affected part, diagnostic, and the cost to repair any covered parts at the prevailing retail labor rates. The repair facility charged for one hour of diagnostic labor at $185, $415 for the part, and $555 for three hours of labor to replace the damaged item. United, Good Sam's administrator, stated they would only cover two hours of labor ($360) and the price they determined the part should cost ($390). I called on May 6th to complain. I received a call back from the claims department stating they would cover the part and the labor. They sent a revised authorization (a1527377) to the repair shop. The new authorization approved $415 for the part, two hours of labor for the repair ($360), and two additional hours for diagnostic and additional labor ($370). However, the total approved was only $775, which included $415 for the part and $360 for labor. The additional $370 was omitted from the total. Both the repair shop and I called multiple times to get them to address the error. On May 18th, I went to the repair shop where we both got on the phone with United's claims department. After two hours on the phone, they stated they would only pay for two hours of labor because that is what their guide indicates.

On February 17, 2022, my Membership with a service provider became effective for my vehicle by Forest River (Fifth Wheel). On May 23, 2022, my wife and I had a blowout while traveling, and Roadside Assistance was contacted. We were stranded for 5 hours before help arrived. The next day, a tire protection service was called to replace 4 tires, and a mobile mechanic was sent to our location to do the job, costing us $1,366.58. On May 26, we continued our trip but soon found the new tires were rubbing against the suspension, damaging them. Roadside Assistance and a local shop were contacted for repairs. The mechanic indicated improper tire replacement techniques had bent the suspension. We replaced the tires and suspension on May 28, costing $3,948.38. I filed a claim with the tire protection service on June 3. Despite providing all required documentation, we were denied reimbursement for the repairs and additional expenses on June 17.

Good Sam Enterprises On June 14, 2022, my husband had a stroke while we were driving to an undisclosed location

On June 14, 2022, while driving to an undisclosed location, my husband had a stroke. I managed to get him to a safe area and a kind stranger helped us. I drove him to a nearby hospital where he was admitted and later airlifted to a specialized center for stroke treatment. I contacted GoodSam for assistance with our vehicle but was denied help because our situation didn't qualify as an accident. They insisted I needed a higher-tier plan. After a long hold and a disconnection, no callback was received. Back at the initial location, a friend's brother helped move our vehicle to a secure spot. On a second call to GoodSam, I was informed that the previous agent had left without upgrading my plan. The new agent upgraded my plan but stated it wouldn't cover the current issue. She advised me to file a claim for reimbursement later. Despite paying extra, GoodSam refused to reimburse me for the $1288.00 trip interruption costs.

Good Sam Enterprises On Sunday, January 2, 2022, I was driving on US Route 17 and a nearby road when an incident occurred.

On Sunday, January 2, 2022, I was driving on US Route 17 and a nearby road. My vehicle ran off the edge of the road and came to a stop on its side. Knowing I had Good Samaritan Roadside assistance (member # hidden), I called their dispatch service to have my vehicle uprighted. While on the phone with Good Samaritan, the police arrived on the scene. While explaining to the officer (with Good Samaritan listening), the officer told me that the vehicle had to be moved ASAP to reopen the road. The Good Samaritan agent advised me that if the police were having a towing company respond, I should use them and submit a request for reimbursement. I followed their advice. Two heavy-duty wreckers responded and were able to upright the vehicle and pull it back up to the road. Amazingly, the vehicle did not receive too much damage and was drivable. The towing/service cost $1,250.00 due to the heavy-duty trucks and time to upright it. A couple of days later, I filed my request for reimbursement. Approximately 8 days later, I was notified that my claim was denied stating that they were never notified, which was not true. Attached is the complaint I filed as well as a copy of the receipt for the charges. Additionally, attached is a copy of the tow receipt that clearly shows it was the police who requested them, not me. I have been contacting Good Samaritan almost every 2 weeks since the incident. Finally, I was able to reach a supervisor who instructed me to prove I had called them. I searched my cell phone but it only went back 2 weeks and my phone company does not keep records of the numbers I called. So, because I can't prove that I made the call, due to the failure of their dispatch to record it, I am requesting reimbursement of $1,250.00. Thank you. I paid the towing company. Yes, I called dispatch, however, the police called the local tow company. The dispatcher advised that was okay.

Good Sam Enterprises On March 15, we purchased a 2018 Thor Synergy RV from a dealership.

On March 15, we purchased a brand new 2018 Thor Synergy RV from a dealership. At that time, we also included in the purchase contract an extended warranty covering any potential issues for up to a certain mileage/duration at a cost of $3103.00. For vehicular accident insurance, I contacted Good Sans and secured a policy effective from 3/15 to 4/6/2022, which remained in place until I sold my RV on 4/6/2022. Upon transferring ownership, I contacted Good Sans/National General to terminate the insurance and confirmed that all automatic bank deductions had ceased. However, a Good Sans representative mentioned an active extended warranty charge I was unaware of, costing $2400, or $68.40 monthly. Since I manage my finances through direct deposit, I hadn't noticed these withdrawals. I never consented to this additional warranty from Good Sans. Despite my requests, Good Sans did not provide access to the alleged recorded agreement or a signed contract. They initially claimed the recordings were too old, then later stated they were proprietary. I am determined to obtain evidence of this supposed purchase I never made. I'm seeking assistance to recover my funds, and if Complaintsboard.com cannot resolve this, I will consider small claims court. I appreciate any help provided.

Good Sam Enterprises For decades we used AAA Premier

For decades we used AAA Premier. Due to an offer (AARP) of 3 years discounted membership from Good-*** Roadside assistance we called them and the rep gave details and thereof we decided to purchase Good *** membership. One day, our car just cut-off the engine whilst travelling on the Interstate. It was almost like the battery dying or run out of gas but non of that applied. We called Good *** and they said it would take an hour for assistance to arrive. The Police arrived, commented that it's a computer failure in car and pulled (towed) the vehicle to the side shoulder. But still subject to fast moving Interstate traffic. We had to call Good *** 6 times and each time they said they were looking for towing service/assistance providers, service will come in 1 hour. By now, we were extremely distraught. We had no food, prescription medicines, water. We missed the family wedding event. After 6+ hours the Good *** service provider arrived. They said they will only be able to tow the car and are limited to mileage because Good *** won't pay them. Well, the tow company towed the car to an "Emissions Service" provider shop - they just left our car in the repair shop parking lot as the business was closed ! We called Good *** and the rep was hardly helpful, no apology for poor service, no enabling to tow the vehicle to a dealer or a repair shop which repaired automotive electronics, Engine computer problems. The next day, we missed pay and took time off to take care of car repairs. The Emissions repair shop told they don't repair electronic problems - only emissions. We had to make our own arrangements to have the vehicle towed to the dealer shop to fix the repair. Since we were let down, the described service was not provided and subjected to suffering we asked Good *** for full refund of membership $179.90 . The Rep apologized, said we'd get a full refund but we only got $15.73 back on the credit card. They NOW say we had a service call. Membership

Good Sam Enterprises After speaking with a Good *** rep on 01/26/2022 and after the representative suggesting a purchase a 2 year membership while the $79/yr sale

After speaking with a Good *** rep on 01/26/2022 and after the representative suggesting a purchase a 2 year membership while the $79/yr sale was active, and him assuming me that there was no risk bc the membership included a 30 trial period wherein if I didnt like the service I could cancel and be refunded, I purchased the 2 years membership. On 01/28/2022 I used the service for a tow to find that I would need to pay an additional $63 for additional mileage despite the advertising which states unlimited mileage. I decided to cancel on the first business day which was 01/31/2022. I called, said I wished to cancel, the rep said ok and I would be refunded. He did not inquire why I wished to terminate the membership nor did he indicate that they would not be refunding the whole amount. I learned a few days later when I checked my bank statement that of the $179. I paid, they only refunded $96. I called and was then told that after the accounting department reviewed the refund they decided to only disperse a partial refund bc I used their service. I explained to the two reps that this was not ever communicated to me. They repeated that it could be found in the brochure. The problem is that at the time of the actual purchase I did not yet have access to the brochure. I have explained that what they did contradicts a 30 day trial period if you are charging the customer for using the service. I was referred to corporate whom I called who told me all issues/inquiries need to be submitted via email. I have done so twice now during the month of February and received neither the balance of my refund nor any response. It is unethical and unfair to bind a customer to rules (which had I been informed at the time of purchase would have prompted me to not purchase the membership) for which they hadnt given me the brochure outline the refund or mileage policies. It is wrong to have told me I would receive my membership fee refund and then later subtract an unexpected amount.

On 12/20, GSE, LLC represented an AUTO plan good in mainland USA and PR (an unincorporated territory) and apparently invoiced this as membership # ***. But on arrival at PR, the services were not confirmed available and it called me with statement that no service was then available in PR and a refund was in process. I then discarded the materials and expected that refund to form. But the same credit card was canceled in meantime ending -*** (***). Each time I asked for it to confirm when/how refund formed in months following, it would kick can down the road with "which plan?" or "call [protected] instead." But the rep answering there at ext # *** could not see total picture. She was reviewing partial refund in August but adding that she would email "***" for resolution. That was "Nicholas" and "Melissa M" with whom prior emails were deflected to above 888.707.7911. After 12 months, Melissa's recent replies crystallize the impasse. Now, she is insinuating no history viewable for above account which I brought her attention after GSE LLC emailed for renewal of allegedly refunded plan as active. Debbie said it tried to refund my canceled card unsuccessfully in August and no one took action after that. Now, reps like "Melissa M., Marcus VIP Customer Care Team" and "Nicholas" are in place to pretend no knowledge of anything. No direct contact information from them is available but they insist people like Debbie are in charge of this missing refund. This is a scam because failure to complete a requested "full refund" in this context does not authorize it to march forward as if no cancelation were in effect. The end result, it misrepresented its plan as active, offered a refund for that misrepresentation, and then faked CS through its MM-effect to defraud me out of premiums paid. As a result, I asked MM for refund on both membership nos. # *** & *** in full as its CS is a faked show built on telling lies
