Also just binned the AA after 8/9 years

Gone with ADAC Partner Plus, as stated, covers me and the other half in any vehicle (? Maybe be open to issue, as on one page it states the vehicle must be reg in your name !!)

I changed mainly for the camper,, AA was a max of 3.5 GVW,, ADAC cover up to 10T plus trailer cover, have to watch the height mind, a max of 3.2 Meters, Whistle

If outside Germany, you have to ring them, English is no problem,, I rang last week a couple of times, with no answer, sent a email, and got a return of call the following day,,

99 euros all in for both of us,, , Only sticky point i can see, is the 200 euros max claim to be recovered of a French motorway,, with a 6ton camper, this may be a tad more that that Shocked


Can dig out the direct number and mail address if wanted ?? California F1, 75th 110 "Kermit", 50th Ann V8, 90 V8 Hybrid, 55 Series 1

Reviving this thread as I might be interested in ADAC but looking at their site I can see the following

Quote:

Using the links below to acquire ADAC membership requires that your place of residence is in Germany. For technical reasons, our system does not support international addresses.

I seem to remember that the first time you join them it has to be done over the phone.

We have been members for 6 years now and renewal etc is effortless however the monthly magazine that they post to us goes straight into the recycling as we don't read German Rolling Eyes

Steve,

I found this on a caravan website discussion ....

Quote:
This is an update on telephone number and email address sent by ADAC Head Office to me for UK citizens to enquire, join and pay for ADAC Subscription by Telephone by Visa or Access Card. In English. This contact line was set up by another member of the staff of ADAC at my request as Brits were finding it difficult to join and find English Speaking Staff.

The lady to contact is Ms. Moser-Wickles is Head of the Office in Regensburg she speaks English and has been informed by Head Office about this website and UK citizens wanting to join ADAC and is looking forward to Contacts.

Telephone Number:- is from the UK 00 49 941 52344 this is for info and joining. If Ms. Moser-Wickles is not available most of the staff in this office speak fluent English.

Email Address is:- amanda.moser-wickles@sby.adac.de for information.

If you still have a problem at all email service@gks.adac.de

Note that you must request, as a UK citizen, for cover by membership Plus or Partner Plus. Prices details as below.

Having given your card details and payment has gone through they will tell you your Membership will start at Midnight. Cards will follow by post. But as long as you have your Membership Number with you, you will be covered.

This German Club offers an excellent service for Car and Caravan if you should have the unfortunate experience of breaking down in this country or anywhere in Europe.

When taking out Breakdown Cover you have to check so many things on the Policy especially if you are towing a Caravan. I will write down on this page all the advantages of joining ADAC and what it covers. * FOR THE EXACT COVER THAT ADAC PARTNER/PLUS INCLUDES Click on the last Link on this page below. It will come up in German but if you wait about half a minutes it will click itself and then come up in English.

Firstly the policy you have to take out is the Plus for one person or Partner Plus if you wish to cover yourself and Spouse or Partner living at one address. This also covers Children and Pets. The reason you need this Policy is because you are not resident in Germany. This Policy covers you if living in the UK or anywhere Worldwide.

The cost of this Service for 1 year is Plus. €79.50 Partner Plus. €98.70

First of all it is you that is covered not your car this means your are covered by this Policy in any car you are driving at the time of breakdown or a passenger in anyone else's car irrespective of the age of the car.

If your car breaks down in the UK you should ring this phone number toll free 0800-0289018 the AA will come to your rescue, as they are partners of the ADAC in the UK. This is also the same in other countries, excluding Germany, in all of Europe they have a partner in those countries eg. Austria OAMTC. All the respective telephone numbers are given in your information pack, when joining ADAC.

It is very easy to join ADAC first of all go to their Website:- www.adac.de/mitgliedschaft/gast.aspx Read up about what it covers (to see it in English download Google Toolbar, which has Translate on it and set it German to English and then when you click on any foreign website, after a few seconds it will come up in English). Go to Plus cover and click on which you can read up on single person. Click on Partner Plus if you want to go for the Member, spouse/partner + children.

To apply for Membership. Phone from the UK 00 49 94 15 23 44 speak to Ms Moser-Wickles or one of the staff at this office they all speak fluent English. They will take your details and payment by Credit/Debit Card and give you your Membership Number. Membership will then start at Midnight after you apply. or Email:-amanda.moser-wickles@sby.adac.de Email might take longer for reply as Ms Moser-Wickles is not always in the Office but by phone you can speak to Ms Lozenz isMs Moser-Wickles is out of the office.

Please Note. If you should get the Answer Phone in German, after the tone give your Name and Full Telephone Number and someone will get back to you quite quickly.

You cannot pay through transfer from your Bank to theirs as German Banks will not take the UK Bank codes which have a different aount of digits. If you ask the Bank to transfer it they will charge approx. £20. So by card is the best action. I will list all the relevant telephone numbers I have at the end of this page.
