Insurance customer service is a joke

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.
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.
They are one of the least expensive companies in Quebec for auto insurance. This is reflected by their horrible customer service. My car was stolen over two months ago and I still have not received money despite the adjuster telling me "the cheque has been mailed" more than once and over a month ago.
The car was stolen on June 15, 2023, and the cheque was apparently mailed on August 2
They do not respond in a timely fashion. They do not address their horrible customer service even after speaking with a manager. This is the worst company.
They tried to up my auto policy by $30 I have no tickets or violations and when I contacted them to ask how much my home insurance would be if I cancelled my auto insurance and they couldn’t tell me that unless I actually did. They also couldn’t tell me how much of a discount I was currently getting since apparently, it’s only “up to” 20% if you bundle. Not sure what kind of company cannot see your policy details but this company sucks what’s the point of having customer service agents if they know next to nothing! Pointless...
Sonnet accidentally made me 50% at fault for an accident and then it took them 5 months to change it to not at fault. They charged me a higher premium and wouldn’t refund me and then charged me 8% to cancel and never sent my remaining refund. Thieves!
Be careful with this company. If I could give a zero star I would. My credit card was not working so on the payment due date I called in a made the payment the same day first thing in the morning over the phone. They then put through cancellation for non-payment even though payment was made. In their position letter, as I will be putting in a complaint to the ombudsman, they refused to indicate that my payment was made the same day(which is fine I have bank records to prove it). Stay away
I had lapses in my license and in my other insurance companies previous and money problems with my bank. After no other insurance company would take me. I went online and saw they would give me a policy and although PayPal is poor and kinda tricky. Sonnet itself was a dream. And even when my car broke down. They gave me the tiny cancellation fee and nulled the policy and never heard anything else from them except for the happy birthday email they sent. LOL. They were a dream for me without talking to a single soul. Alberta buyer.
Don't use these guys they have no customer service and don't take payments out on the right dates and will even try to take payments early or try to charge you a double payment for them trying to take money out on the wrong dates and very hard to get a hold of anyone to resolve your issues and didn't even take my cancelation payment and sent me to collections. Don't ever use them nothing but problems they "only deal with emails" but when need to notify you they send you a registered letter that comes in too late to they can charge you more these guys are a joke!
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.
Bought a policy.
Picked up a brand-new truck.
A day later, the transmission went out.
Returned to the dealer and ordered a new truck.
Called Sonnet to notify them - they added all kinda fees.
Charged $635 for 3 days...
