HORRIBLE

by SnakesRunMyInsurance on Jan 10, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

I have been receiving letters about a false claim, and I have been trying to contact them about this only to get ignored every single day, I call many times. I have sent emails, left voicemails, as this issue seems to be time-sensitive according to the letter. For some reason, I am told I can only deal with this through a specific agent that sent the letter, and they are just not responding to anything! They are purposely ignoring me so that my rates automatically go up over this claim. Do they get some kind of commission for this? I don't know. This claim doesn't actually exist though!!! Absolutely ridiculous, completely untrustworthy. Do yourselves a favour and PLEASE go elsewhere.

Terrible and dissapointing

The worst and unprofessional insurance. Not helpful at all. Not only they charge huge money but also never help and care about customers. Had to call them 4 times to solve my issue where I was charged $659 extra but never helped me at the end they connected to irrelevant departments where they said you called wrong department and I had to repeat to calls. Finally gave up calling and wasting time. Please never recommended there are thousands of insurances with excellent customer service and care. Never consider this one!

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.

Gong Show

These guys are a Gong Show, they gave me a runaround, had to go through several adjustors, and appraisers, they don't seem to know what they were doing, making assumptions without any mechanical background or knowledge. Hard to get hold of anyone, took forever to return my calls. ...not worth it.

Wouldn't Recommend

I was with intact for only a year. They are the first company I've been with and they provided me with the lowest rate at that time. I was in a not at fault accident about 2 months ago and when I contacted intact and mentioned that the other insurers policy was American they did not lift even a finger to try and help me. They eventually assigned me an adjuster who I contacted and left messages for 5+ times and they failed to call me back every time. It took me almost 3 months to get everything settled ON MY OWN with the other insurers company because Intact wouldn't even bat an eye to help. Once I got my new car they told me how much it was going to be monthly and I was okay with it but once I got my papers, it was $60 higher than what they told me over the phone and when I called they said the person just must have told me the wrong amount. THEN I recently received my renewal and they upped my insurance to $500 a month, almost DOUBLE what I was paying before. When I contacted them they told me they couldn't budge on that price. I had one minor speeding ticket that was 15 over in a 100 that was paid the same day and they said that's why it went up so drastically and because they raised their insurance prices, when yet everyone I talked to who had a minor speeding ticket only put a very small ding in their insurance if anything at all. I would definitely NOT recommend this company to anyone.

WHAT A JOKE

by Justin on Mar 22, 2017

My truck was stolen, no one ever came to see me like they post will happen within 24 hrs. Had to find my own rental cause they couldn't get me one. Had to fight to get reimbursed for the rental, even though they gave me a rate and everything, that I didn't exceed. It took over a year to finally get my vehicle repaired back to normal. Had to fight tooth and nail with them non-stop. Came to the point where I had to almost get a lawyer. They should have wrote the vehicle off, it was brand new, I didn't even have 100 kms on it yet. But they wanted to give me $17,000.00 - that's less than what I just bought it for. Of course I refused, so they fixed it and paid over $2000.00 for what I bought it for to repair it. Makes you wonder why we have to pay for insurance when they can get away with things like this and yet we have to have it and pay for insurance... Why???

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.

NEVER EVER GO THERE

NEVER EVER trust them and insure with them!
My car was crashed in a rear-ended collision in October 20, 2016. Intact considered it as a complete loss. But, the only damage was - the trunk does not lock. They contacted me last Friday, December 16, 2016 and said, that my car is written off and they are going to report it in Alberta Transportation; so, I can not drive my car of the roads legally after December 23, 2016. Which means, my child and I have no car in Christmas!!! I asked David M. numerous times to extend that period of time that I can find a replacement. I asked him about a mercy, I said its Christmas. He said he NO ITS YOUR PROBLEMS. So, I was offered a cheque with a very little money that I can definitely can replace my infiniti. Well, having no choice I agreed to take a cheque. He said, that I will get on Monday. But, i did NOT get a check on Monday case it was not ready. I got on Tuesday at 4 pm. I went to the bank and asked to cash that cheque. The Manager from the TD branch with is on 3d st 751 av sw declined it because this cheque might be a fake one. I said that I have all documents from INTACT to prove it and explained the situation briefly. They did not trust me. So, i can get money in December 27. And I have no car from December 24. I cried.
Also, when I came there to insure my car, they gave me a good price and I signed documents. However, one months later they increased my monthly payments by $30 without letting me know. I contacted the office and they said, they found a speed ticked from 1.5 ago. However, I TOLD to the broker that i HAD one ticket in 11 years in 2015 and he said that the price is considering this ticket.

INTACT left my child and me with no car for Christmas! They are not humans!

Terrible company! Do not trust them.

Charged for nothing

Living in Newfoundland Canada we now have taxed insurance. Intact Insurance was charging close to $3000 for full coverage for the year so I found a better deal at one of their competitors. I spoke with them on the phone letting them know I was cancelling and was told that I would have to sign something in order to cancel to which I replied "Okay, I'll make my way down there when I can." Nothing else was said. I have now received a "legal notice" in the mail saying I owe them $279 for non payment up until October 4th. They're charging me, and letting me know they're cancelling my policy, for not paying on a policy I've already told them I was cancelling.

Stay away from this company, unless you intend to never leave them, otherwise they'll find a way to charge every single penny they can.

Don't use intact!

Agreat company until you actually need them. Got hit by a car who ran a stop sign (my part of the road didn't have the stop sign) so 100% not my fault. My car was written off and undriveable yet still took 5 days to get a rental car and the only reason I got it was my dad took over and reamed them out for 1/2 hour. Tried to claim that the driver of the other car never spoke to her insurance yet so they couldn't process anything. We called her and she not only had but also her car was already in the shop and had a rental. Took another week for them to give me the money for my car and wanted to take my car from the yard it was at before they paid for it luckily my dad knew the guy who owned the yard and stopped them from removing it. All very shady stuff not to mention because I got into an accident a week before the insurance renewal date I couldn't cancel like i wanted to because it was in the middle of a claim. So stuck with them for another year or have to pay the expensive cancellation fee.

DO NOT GO WITH INTACT

by NickyWicky on May 20, 2016
1 out of 5 stars

Brant H. was my broker. Rude, obnoxious, arrogant. Would not give me a straight up cost for my premium. When I got the copy of my premium in the mail, it was nothing close to what he told me by email. Nevermind the hassle of asking him to call me when he is available, he will go and tell you that he is "busy assisting others with claims, too busy, please email with your concern". Everyone in his office is just as useless. He always tells me to go talk to his assistants for help, so when I go ask them a question, I get referred back to Brant, they can’t ever give you a straight answer. Constant flip-flopping of questions being juggled around, prices never accurate. They really need to get their act together. Insurance companies are supposed to get you the lowest possible rate. Why is it that I could always go get a quote from another insurance company, and its ALWAYS lower than Intact? If you enjoy being ripped off and treated like crap, please go with Intact. Other than that, I am switching to TD, because my premium went down $2500 just from switching. What a relief. So happy I’m done with Intact. Worst Insurance Company with the WORST Insurance Brokers on the planet. :)
