Sonnet Auto Insurance Reviews

These people are lazy and should not even work with wages. These people are a joke. First I have filed a claim and after three months of patiently waiting. I still have no response even after getting back to the adjuster that was on my case. I called and emailed, no response! So I decided to cancel my policy after a year, after that I got charge again for a new year term which I was not expecting because I turnoff auto re-new. The website is terrible, customer service and people who work here are terrible. We should start a class action suit.

Sure the initial online policy sign-up process is easy - but that's the only value you get from Sonnet / Economical, as they are the same company. They are severely understaffed in the back office and our claim processing was offloaded to a third-party agency. We are 4 MONTHS into our car repairs saga after car theft, being bounced from 3rd party to 3rd party, given the wrong status and timelines on repairs, having to get to the body shop ourselves to take pictures to show to our adjuster, etc. We should get our car back in 3 weeks, after having had to manage the entire process on behalf of our Insurance provider. 5 MONTHS to get your vehicle back... Dealing with a claim at Sonnet is a nightmare - AVOID AT ALL COST

If I could give Sonnet below 1 star I would! They are absolutely terrible. They are scammers! They just take your monthly premium... It took 9 months to fix my car! They never call you... They don't even respond to emails. The worst experience I have ever had and their rates are not good!

At first, I signed up with Sonnet because of their competitive prices. But don't be a fool like me, they take the money but then when it's time to give you the service for a reclamation they are not there. I made a reclamation on December 29th. I am writing this review on February 15th, I had a total car loss and haven't yet received any news on what they are gonna pay me and what are the options. We're close to the 60 days law now and I'll have to deal with the AMF for further actions. Tried to call Sonnet, tried to send them a complaint but I don't have a callback or an email reply. Save yourself some peace of mind and pay a little more with another company.

The worst experience I have ever had in car insurance. I had to call 5 times for a claim and after 20 days my car is still not repaired. Definitely, I do not recommend this company.

After a serious car accident when I was travelling with my vehicle at the cottage, they have not responded to a report nor sent an evaluator.
This is normally done within 48 hours.
I'm left to go home on my own, without a vehicle and without a courtesy vehicle.
Agents are useless because they can't open your file (outsourced I guess).
It may be simple and easy to get insured and take your money, but they have zero customer service when it counts.

I've been waiting for over a month and still have not gotten an answer.They do not take responsibility or cover anything. And you wait and wait

If you have all day and nothing to do but pay for your vehicle to sit in a tow yard they get a 5-star review it has been 5 days since my accident and have not heard from anyone... seems everyone that works there is sorry and understands hmm funny as I keep getting the run around I to suggest paying the extra money for insurance and go with an insurance company that answers their calls or has someone reply they are not concerned about this matter and was transferred after being asked for my information for the *lost count* of times... get me in the proper department and let's deal with someone who can have this sorted in 10 minutes... I took care of the hard work... towing at my expense though it is supposed to be covered as stated in my policy...

Everything was going great tell I made a claim 10 months into my first year with Sonnet. My car got hit while it was parked so it wasn’t my fault. Cops came took a statement. I did everything I was supposed to do. It is March 28, 2020, I made my claim Nov 21, 2019, and I still never heard from Sonnet after many attempts to contact them. Every time I call the claims team they tell me they don’t have my file and give me an email of who does. This guy never gets back to me. I ended up paying for an accident out of my pocket. To top it off my year contract ended Feb 15 my last payment was Jan 15. On March 15, 2020, Sonnet tried to take 186 dollars from my account. I thought this was some kind of error but it wasn’t. I called them and asked why they were taking money from my account. They said it’s for your policy I said my policy was up on Feb. They said they just renew it if you don’t call and tell them. I said - "So, you guys renew policies without asking the customer?" They said they sent me an email that they didn’t send. Then later said they called me. My policy was 120 a month so I guess because I made the claim (that they won’t get back to me about or pay) the put my insurance up to 186. Long story short I would stay far away from this company. The low rate and easy sign is the only thing good about them. When it comes time to interact with them you will have problems. Oh, and when I talked to a supervisor about their cancelling my policy they said we still have to charge you for the days we insured you. What a joke I agreed to a year nothing more. I wasn’t happy and I didn’t renew. They renewed for me and overcharged me then charged me for days they insured me smh. I never even knew I had insurance with them till they took money out of my account. If I where you, I would stay far away.

My truck was stolen March 1st. It’s now April 25th and I still haven’t received any settlement. They’re saying it’s because the truck was found, which restarts the whole process. I gave them all the information regarding that on March 21st. April 12th no one picked up the truck or went to look at it. I still haven’t received any settlement from them. Even when calling the adjuster and leaving voicemails saying “please call me back” I get emails saying “sorry I missed your call”. Timelines they give are not accurate and you’re lucky to get the response of “I’ll keep you posted as soon as we can move forward”. I’ve had to take a loan to purchase another vehicle since their claim is taking so long, leaving me with interest I shouldn’t be dealing with.

Their rates are great. But if you have a claim, at least in my case, their rates reflect the service.
