Title: Safeguard Breakdown (Swinton)
Post by kev69 on Apr 23rd, 2011 at 4:49pm
Hi, I'd like a land line number for 08001694559.
This is the number for Safeguard insurance caravan breakdown recovery, by definition it is most likely that this call for breakdown assistance would need to be made from a mobile phone thus incurring charges despite it being a freephone number. :'(


Safeguard is part of the Swinton group

Hello and welcome to SAYNOTO0870.COM.

You can call freephone (0800/0808/0500) numbers from your mobile and be billed as a geographic call by using a dial through provider with a geographic number. One is 020 0222 0900. Ring this number and when it answers, input the destination freephone number. This will work with any freephone number.


If you're still looking for an alternative, then what's the administration address, the name of underwriter and any other information that might lead us to an alternative?

Kev,

Do you have paperwork provided by SafeGuard?

Check in the small print or the contact details sometimes they include a landline number. Alternatively do you have a landline?

If you do call them from your landline and ask them for an 01/02 number they may give it to you.

:)

This is Swinton's Breakdown Policy Summary http://www.swinton.co.uk/UserFiles/PDF/breakdown_summary.pdf

I have tried to look on Safeguard's site, but cannot seem to find a download.

If you look on Swinton's one there is a 0800 and 01 number,

Perhaps Safeguard's is the same?
