Re: [RC] US Rider...a look at the archives... - Laney Humphrey

Nope, that was my incident and don't believe everything you read! That's Mark's interpretation, but remember, there are always two sides to the story. He neglects to say that he swore at me on the phone and cancelled my membership in spite of the fact that there is no provision for doing that in the Service Contract. I chose not to make a big deal of it in public (i.e., on Ridecamp) because I didn't want to get into a spitting match.

I believe there is a letter from Mark Cole, of US Riders, that explains what happened with the Dave Rabe accident. It is in the archives dated 4-3-08.
It explains what happened and sounds like it was all cleared up.

Yes. It's my understanding that he was not completely reimbursed for expenses that were covered according to the Service Contract. I've written about my experiences here on Ridecamp (in March of this year and after Tevis, 2006). My March conflict with the company resulted in Mark Cole, the Managing Director, cancelling my membership. Looking back, if I were still a member and needed only my truck towed, I'd call on my regular insurance company before calling USRider. Having said that, like Crysta, they sent a locksmith out quickly when my dog locked herself in my car, and except for these 2 incidents, I was really pleased with the service I got. Probably the best way to sum up how I feel about the company is that they choose to get involved in simple problems but find excuses for opting out of more complicated or expensive problems which Dave Rabe's and mine both were.
