Cancelled for non-payment when I paid!!

Paid for 6 years always on time got cancelled because I moved to another province and they didn't update their database, they said I'm not licenced, I've had a license since 16, I'm now 61, what a scam, moved to another company and saved 50$ a month, no payments missed, no tickets, terrible customer service.
I made a claim for my car a while ago and customer service would always give vague answers on the progress of the claim, or they just don't give you an answer. There must be a reason why getting a policy from them was so easy; it's because they will absolutely make you pay for that later on when you have to make a claim. They will make sure to make the experience as slow and frustrating as possible.
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 had a chip on my windshield which when I went to get it fixed cracked. Put in the claim to Sonnet and they rejected it. If a meteor or a planet fell out of the sky it would have been covered. I've paid this company over $1,000 every year over the past 10-plus years for this awful claim-free coverage. I also have their home insurance coverage which I have not submitted a claim against either. I will be shopping for a new provider.
Scammers. Stay away from Sonnet & Economical Insurance company at all costs. I got into an accident & when I tried to get hold of them they tried everything to avoid me & refused any rental or collision coverages claim and also said my policy doesn’t have any of these coverages. Crooks, liars. Save your time & hard-earned money. Never ever get insurance from them.

I had a car insurance policy with Sonnet for a few years. In 2023, my credit card was compromised and I forgot to change the card with Sonnet. I was notified via registered mail and immediately took corrective action. I had until June 24th to correct the card and pay back premium. All was done on June 4th. I was then also charged regular premium the following month. After which, Sonnet cancelled my policy without my knowledge! I reported the issue and they refuse to reinstate my policy unless I pay the premium for the time that I WAS NOT covered by their company. Additionally, they were supposed to reply 5 days ago with and escalation effort and I have heard nothing. In the meantime, this is negatively affecting my insurance profile as I have a cancellation for non-payment on my file and coverage gap when, in fact, I paid and they cancelled the policy for no reason.
