Having had our eriba troll 540gt (steve) now for over a year our insurance is due with the CAMC.
I've had various quotes but the small print on the policies all say you must be registered with Cris.
To make a claim for total loss. Now my dear departed friend never registered this van from new it's now 10 year old should I be looking to pay the £72 to register obviously having concerns that my caravan insurance could be invalid if say its stolen with out the cris certificate. I've contacted Caravan Guard insurance they say its just a recommendation but the policy does say MUST register with Cris
As anybody got any ideas on this dilemma....I've rang the camc club insurance and even they recommend cris registration in the small print .is this a grey area were a possible claim may be refused they say not ????..cheers Phil.

If it's written in the policy then the insurers have a way out if you don't comply. If it isn't a policy requirement then they can't use lack of registration as a way to disallow a claim. So if the CMC say its a recommendation but not a policy requirement then it isn't an issue.

This cris registration certainly is a grey area that's hidden in the small print that I bet not alot of people are not aware of it basically it should be written into Law like a car log book then the grey areas can't be hidden .....cheers Phil.

It took me a while to find this thread as I remembered it from a while ago. This unfortunate Eriba owner had their claim rejected because it wasn’t CRiS registered and it was in the small print. If they can wriggle out of paying they will.

In a pickle with CRIS...

I seem to remember at least one of my recent cars having an IMR label on the windows, which drew attention to a unique ID number independent of the registration?
Haven’t looked on the i30 but I will tomorrow.🙂

Just for the record, there was no mention of CRIS when we were paid out last year.
