My insurance is $4900 a year for an old VW. (Used to be over $5000), I have no accidents or tickets and I have been driving for 5 years. The price is the highest anywhere in the world and it seems to be completely arbitrary who gets the better prices and who gets completely robbed by ICBC. Then, when the time comes around for you to actually have to use your insurance from ICBC, it’s next-to-impossible to contact them at all, and they give you an abysmal compensation for lost wages and recovery fees. I know a person who couldn’t contact their adjuster for an entire year and had multiple months of lost income, plus physical therapy fees and a destroyed car (~$2000), and the best ICBC could muster up was $4000.
They will intentionally withhold wage replacement dispite severe injuries and found not at fault, until you repetitively call and beg them. Then they will act like they don't know why it didn't go thru. Scammers.
I have had brain injury, Back/spine injury and a wrist injury. 0 payout, and the wage replacement is 400$ less then what I was making before injury, which is NEVER on time. Also, don't bother calling them. They won't answer. If you miss their call, wait until next week.
