    I was with RACQ when I first moved to Vic, I broke down within a week of being here, good ol fuel pump. Rang them up told them I was on a holiday, will RACV do the free towie? I got given a massive run around and was eventually transferred to RACV and the lady on the phone was really confused and said no.

    I would try and talk to someone who knows what they are on about, I think i got a moron

    There is no stupid questions, just stupid people

    You should be covered, double check with racq though, your pamphlet thingy will tell you everything as will the website.

    Ah yeah....all the clubs are affiliated under the Assist Australia company. So if you breakdown anywhere in the country, you will be provided with assistance by the club of the state you are in.
    The correct process is: call 13 11 11, goes to the local state, then say look Im an RACQ member on holiday and me car's broken down etc., the consultant will then take your member number down, and would need to call the club of our original membership (in this case RACQ) to verify your membership and entitlements, and then once that's all good you will be provided with the same level of service that you would receive had you broke down in your state.
    If you need any more info, just let me know I can get some documents from work and e-mail them to you if you want a hard copy evidence of the process.
