Horrible if any bank issues arise, or like to pay early.

This company is a waste of money!!! I been a with them for 3 years and they decided to cancel my insurance on me for no reason at all. I have NO tickets, no accidents, all my payments have been paid ON TIME. I got told right by sonnet to do a new quote for my new inquiry, i do so and half way through my quote they turn around and cancel my insurance!!!! Now i am missing work because they fooled around with my insurance. I do NOT recommend going with this company I have never heard ANYONE I know with them have positive reviews. They will literally do what ever they can to not pay our an insurance claim, people are having to take them to court in order to get their entitled claims, etc!!! This company is a complete joke. Guess thats what I get for using a “online only” company. Lesson learned!! Save your time and money and look elsewhere!
They Cancelled our insurance for something that wasn`t relevant to our policy! We called & spoke with an agent & they looked at our policy & said that they didn`t see anything wrong. They asked us to sent a drivers abstract report for each driver & they would review our policy. I spent money for the reports & sent them as I was told. I emailed 3 different times & they never responded to any of my emails. They are not a very professional insurance company to deal with!
Worst insurance company I have ever dealt with. I canceled my insurance policy over the phone with a representative two months before the renewal date. I then had to speak to another representative to cancel it. I also emailed the company twice to confirm the cancellation. Just received notice that they have sent my file to collections. For fees after cancellation. Unbelievable.
I did car insurance with sonnet 102 days ago.
And just canceled it with no hustle. I canceled because I sold my car and I am not getting a new one for the rest of the year for sure.
I had paid the first payment and 2 others (a total $602).
Based on the time with this insurance, I owed $614. (They have a simple table that explains this calculation)
After canceling my fee is missing balance from calculations 614-602 and I got charged $12 as my cancellation fee.
I don’t get what others are doing wrong, why do you have such hate? My experience was as good as it can be.
I was with Sonnet for 2 years and cancelled due to a better rate with another insurer. When renewal came it said to cancel by June 18th so I cancelled June 16th and paid the month of June for insurance. Good thing I screenshotted that I cancelled my insurance, as I got a notice in the mail saying I RENEWED. While the customer service was friendly, It took multiple emails and over a month for them to get back to me. I had to PROVE I had insurance somewhere else. The entire process was ridiculous. After almost 5 weeks it was stated that it was “sorted” and I would receive 147$ refund in 5-10 business days since July’s insurance amount also came out of my account. 3.5 weeks later I only receive 16$ as a refund and they apologized stating the other 131$ was the “short rate cancellation fee” apparently because I cancelled 2 days before the exact day my policy was up although I already paid for June and they also still took my money for July’s insurance. I am still dealing with this issue. I will NEVER recommend Sonnet insurance.
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 cancelled my insurance back in May 2022 due to a price hike of over $600, they even sent a CONFIRMATION stating my insurance is cancelled.
June 2022 - Sonnet sends me a credit email of $1525, saying my account will be credited?
July 2022 - the $ 1525 was REMOVED from my bank account, even though I no longer have a policy with them??
I called and they said I will get it within 14 days... 14 days pass, and they claim it takes 3-5 days for AN E-TRANSFER to show up. A week passes and still no refund...
Called again, and they said "you should get it in the next few days"... Another week passes...
I filled out an investigation with my bank. The bank says "we got to give them 30 days to respond". 30 DAYS PASS - still no refund!
Now I gotta hire a lawyer! More money out of pocket.
If you sign up with Sonnet, you are a fool. These guys get away with FRAUD.
I already PRE PAID IN FULL for a year and yet they proceeded to take out money for a non-existent policy after I already cancelled it and refused to follow up after several calls. Terrible experience!
On September 15, 2021, we cancelled our renewed car auto insurance policy and the home insurance policy started date October 3, 2021.
On October 12, 2021, we have gotten two registered letters from Sonnet Insurance. Sonnet wants us to pay for renewed policies that were cancelled 18 days in advance.
We found out that Sonnet Insurance on October 3, 2021, tried an unauthorized attempt to take money from our visa card for car auto insurance policy and our home insurance policy started date October 3, 2021, those were cancelled by us on September 15, 2021. In our opinion, it is a theft attempt. We were lucky. Visa changed Visa card before that attempt.
I cancelled my policy with them a month before my renewal date, however, they still took a payment, when I called them on it they reversed it, but 4 days later took the payment again. When I called them on it they tried to blame me, I said how is a month prior to renewal, not long enough. Crooks, stay away from them. They also raised my yearly rate by almost 1000 dollars, without reason or notice.

Will just cancel for a non payment, even if you can make the payment and it's a processing issue. Cannot make early payments, will continually argue. Canceled my policy for a bank communication error and told me there was nothing they could do when I was trying to just make the payment since their recurring system caused my account to think it was fraud. Horrible service, no one to contact half the time. Now making it harder for me to get new insurance from a competitor, and are showing I'm a non paying customer which raises my risk setting when I've been trying to make either early or make up payments when the recurring schedule didn't work. Never received their registered letter which they just say was sent out, and the only emails I got regarding the time period associated was about an alumni offer.
