Sloppy insurance company.

They made a mistake which was unknown to me, I should have only had one at fault accident on my record. Chieftain kept raiding my insurance and I could not figure out why, well im trying to switch insurance companies come to find out chieftain kindly put two at fault accidents on my record within 10 days of another, for the same vehicle... which was so badly damaged after the accident as it rolled multiple times it was a total loss. They say "an honest mistake" I have been trying to get information on the issue and get it fixed because I can't get insurance right now because of their mistake...

monthly cost roller coaster

by Ag3nt49 on Jul 27, 2019
1 out of 5 stars

Been with them approximately two years with no incidents/claims. The monthly cost for coverage fluctuated by as much as $100 with no explanation. Calls to ask for justification of the increases were met with eventual (because they never picked up the first call) with a response of "deal with it or leave". Calling to inform of my G license had them tell me they needed me to fax in a copy of my license.... despite having my license # on file, which would allow them to draw all of my driving history from the MTO. Absolute joke of a business with a complete lack of professionalism.

getting annoyed

Started 2016 as a single driver. $287 monthly not bad. Lets my wife joined the policy months after. Both of us with G license. The policy went up to at least 315$, 367$ to 374$! 3 years of ups and downs. No drivers violations. Got a letter today, April. Increased again to 41$ so a total of 394$! 3 years with this company is not a good experience. And this is just 1 car! Time to shop around.

Did you know that on average Ontario drivers with good driving records pay $1,805/year in auto insurance? Is your insurance rate higher? Get a free car insurance quote and start saving today.

Gambling and lying

This insursnce company is based on monthly premiums and not yearly. Which means they change your rates every month. In two years, my insurance was almost $100 more than I was quoted at other auto insurance companies. Every month was a gamble as to how much my insurance would increase by. Also this company claimed that my partner and I had two at-fault accidents from 6 years previous, when neither one of us were driving. They couldn't provide more information other than the year, and refused to look more into this information, all the while charging us more because we "had two accidents". When we pressed for more information, they said it would take 6-8 weeks to get the accident reports, which they refused to send after asking them to. I have since learned that there are absolutely no accidents in our histories (as we knew) and they blatantly made these up.

BAD INSURANCE CO

They're the worst company ever! They'll take your $$$ and do nothing when the time comes for action! They don't communicate with you and their agents are there to simply SCAM you!! Buyer beware! Wish I could give ZERO stars!

If you have a good driving record in AB, you should pay around $110/month (women - $105/month and men - $113/month). Do you overpay? Get an Alberta car insurance quote to start saving.

it is really nice when someone has had 2 vehicles insured with a company
for 12 yrs, and payed over $ 28 000 and they cut your insurance off, unjustly of course, their screw up, they got their money every time, just a few days late. anyways good to know they are so loyal, lol i am glad they lost all of my business including vehicles, 2 houses, and other stuff, very bad customer service, you might want to consider another company which will gladly treat you nice to get your business, try the co-operators, very friendly

high car insurance prices

I live in small town Ontario but pay huge Toronto car insurance prices...........I think it's highway robbery for this part of the province to be lumped in with the 6 million GTA drivers and all their accidents!!!

Absolutely worst experience! Ever!

by Jofew on Jun 17, 2022

Chieftain Insurance (Travellers Canada) is absolutely horrifying & terrible. Consumer BEWARE. They cancelled our insurance without even informing us, no letter or anything. Just a refund to our credit card. They should have sent out a cheque with a registered letter to make sure we receive & acknowledge it.

We were contacted by them in July 2021 saying that they did not receive a payment (this was automatically done through our credit card) & if we do not pay $769. by Aug 29th, they would cancel our insurance. As soon as we received the letter, we called & made a payment on August 9th, 2021 & got an authorization code (00573E - paid Aug 9, 2021 @ 12 pm). After a month or two we got a refund for $671 sent directly to the credit card, since there was no letter accompanying it we naturally assumed that it was a covid refund since we weren't driving as much.
