ICBC Auto Insurance Reviews

I hit a pot hole and the plastic skid plate under the front bumper received some broken clips as a result. The noise was loud so just in case there was suspension damage I called to see if I should file a claim. The lady I spoke with advised me that if I filed a claim and it was never processed, the claim number would die. No consequences. I took my vehicle to a dealer who replaced the clips for 71.90 which included labour. I called ICBC back to kill the claim number and was told it would still be on my file indefinitely.
Had I known that, I would not have filed a claim number until I had the damage assessed, but now, I realize the ads on TV that accuse them of lying are quite valid. Don't trust them for any thing. They are liars!
are quite valid. Bottom line. Don't trust them for anything. They are liars!

ICBC has had its monopoly for too long now.

Its about time we allow private insurance companies to operate in BC

I would like to highlights the problems of monopoly and how the BC residents are taken for a ride but this monster called ICBC.

First of all the most expensive insurance in the world is ICBC there is no insurance in the world that charges 4000$ for a new driver except ICBC. The sad part is they are getting away with it since no one apparently in BC is doing anything to end this mockery.

ICBC has announced profit of 285,000,000 in one year with 135% increase in profit and yet they want to increase the premiums by 4.9% on all drivers and the CEO has the decency to come on TV and claim that the 4.9% is less than a 1 a month.

Seriously do you think that Canadians are that stupid here is the formula first of all the average insurance in BC ( these statistics is by them not mine is) 1285$ 4.9% of that is 62.9$ that is over 5$ a month how dare you lie and say it is less than a 1$?

Did you know that new drivers in BC are asked to pay 4000$ for those old drivers who really think that this does not affect them since they are averagely paying 1300$ think about your sons and daughters think about your brothers and sisters and friends who will end up paying over 300$ a month when you can buy a brand new car for less than 200$ a month EMI?

The problem is bigger than amounts paid the problem is Monopoly.

Allow me to highlight the monopoly scheme

When you are a monopoly you become complacent you don't care about your customers any more to you they are sheep not clients or you see them with the $ sign on their foreheads

As a monopoly they will use their funds in every possible way to keep their business running as a monopoly therefore you have a lobby of corrupt politicians who are paid to protect the interest of this company and not yours as a citizen of this country. You become a no. not a human being any more.

Other problem of Monopoly is that the company who is preforming the monopoly they have no respect to their clients its like we can do it we are doing it and we love doing it and you have no other option but to take it or leave it.

Today cars are no luxury. They are a mean of transport to many of us. If we don't drive and reach to our work we don't eat or pay the rent at the end of the month. When company like ICBC has the liberty to do what it likes with your as a no. ( not a human being ) they are hitting you where it hurts and you have nothing to do about it.

Remember politicians and supporters of ICBC are being paid by you they are your servants but just like police they get carried away and they think they are above the law. They need to be reminded that you are there to serve us and not the other way around.

Today ICBC is no more a private company they are now setting the rules for the road speeds asking RCMP to act as per their likings arrest hold confiscate and even use your information gathered by them with police investigation without your approvals.

Today we say stop to ICBC we call on more companies to come and operate in BC we want to create jobs by allowing fair competition.

If 4 or five auto insurance companies come to operate in BC guaranteed jobs of over 50,000 personal will be available

rates of your yearly premiums will drop from 3400$ to 700$
