Looking for good coverage at an affordable price

5 out of 5 stars
I had an auto insurance policy through Allstate, and didn’t have any issues! Other than the fact that I submitted a void cheque way before my payment was due to come out and was told it was updated. They then still proceeded to take the payment out of the wrong account. I emailed a broker that I have been talking to and helped me start my policy, and was told that it was updated, and they would try to take it out again. They took the payment out of the wrong account for a second time, leading to my auto policy now being cancelled unless I come up with the full amount. Long story short, I am being cancelled for something that is not the fault of my own. Be cautious with this company as a cancellation can affect your chances of getting low rates/monthly payments. Very disappointed as I was not apologized to, but yet punished for something that isn’t my fault.
I go with Allstate 3y and don’t have any accident but my bill still go up every year. When I called and asked the customer service, they don’t make the good deal for me, just explaining now everything go up that why my auto insurance go up too. While another company will make the good deal for me. I think Allstate don’t need me as the customer.
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.
I’ve been with Allstate for years. Other than the wait times they’re great. Rates are great. But if you buy a car on a weekend you can’t insure it until the following Monday. Allstate is the only insurance company who is completely unavailable Saturday & Sundays. This is ridiculous.
I have been waiting for a refund check of $660.75 as I cancelled my policy on April 23, 2024…. Agent forgot to cancel, so my money was withdrawn on April 27, 2024. I’ve been trying to get my money back since May 6 was told it took 15 business days for a payment to clear… lies! Automation payments don’t take 15 days to clear. Called Allstate again May 10, check has been issued and is in the mail… called May 16 they blamed Canada post, was also told that same day by someone else I’d have my check by May 22…. Guess what, still no check! I called as soon as I got home from work and was on hold for 35 minutes listening to bullshit about how important their clients are! So important, they can’t answer a call… or send the money they owe clients! Definitely would not recommend. I left Allstate as my insurance increased by $111.00 a month, no home or auto claims ever! Apparently because of my postal code, the rates went up. They are lying to me about my money and I this company does not care one bit about their clients!
Allstate insurance is next to impossible to contact in my area. I have called several times and have been on hold for as long as 30 minutes before giving up. I sent email to cancel a policy, received an auto reply stating they would contact me within 5 business days...still no response 9 days later. Customer service has been a nightmare!! Thank god, I did not have to contact them regarding a claim! All policies now finally cancelled and will never contact them again even for a quote!
They ask you to install the app to get discounts the following year but they just lie to you and rip you off. I was supposed to get 22% discount but at the renewal not only I didn’t get any discount but also they increased both my auto and home insurance 30%. I had no claim/tickets but they didn’t drop my rates. I had heard the same from other people.
Very Bad customer service. Call on hold for two hours
I'm stuck in order to save few bucks.
Got my vehicle stolen within the first week I got it. It's been 3 weeks and I have called and emailed my assigned adjuster and nothing. Terrible customer service. Reading everyone reviews is very scary, and after my claim is settled, I will be switching insurance companies. It takes hrs to just get in contact with an agent to make a change on your policy. Stay away from the horrid company.
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.
I've been on hold for over 2 hrs to speak to an agent about my policy and give them info they requested. So while I'm waiting, I download their app to go through that way. The app doesn't work, no policies show up and you just get an error message. The worst company to get through to I have ever experienced. You are taking high premiums, pay people to answer the phones and stop wasting my time. I'm looking for another provider.

Was looking for car insurance that fit my low risk, long driving record. At this time, everything is going up.
Was referred to Allstate by an existing customer and did the online quote. Was only cheaper by a few dollars, so never did anything with it.
A representative from the Allstate called me and got me a better deal than quoted. Very friendly and professional. Talked me through their process and I would recommend it for all your car needs.
