For those of us with Hagerty insurance...

....the following experience of a friend of mine should give us pause for thought. Yesterday morning 6 of us were on a nice cruise in the NC countryside in our 911's. All was well until the cdi unit on my friend's car failed. Time to use the Hagerty insurance for a tow. About 25 miles from home. Hagerty middleman assigns tow company. They call and say all the tow is not free only 5 miles. Friend says ok, reluctantly. Hour passes and middleman calls and says original towing company won't come, too busy. Assigns new company which call friend and tells him it's $180 just to show up and an hour wait on top of that. Friend says no and calls a local tow company that shows up in 20 minutes and tows him home for $100 cash. Friend now has 2 charges on his credit card.
Pretty shabby treatment. $100 a year will buy you 100 mile free towing with AAA.
I may look for a new insurance carrier when I'm due to renew. Shabby.
