Collection call

by Maxine Green on Jun 18, 2024
1 out of 5 stars

My mother passed away in November 2023 and her broker knew this and up until her death was never late for a payment. Her broker put her in collections after the fact with my phone number. Very wrong and inconsiderate. I had to wake up to defend my dead mother’s name today, and I’m still very much grieving, and this just made it worse.

Stealing my money from my account

by Hkaur on Sep 14, 2023
1 out of 5 stars

I want to give this company less than zero stars, but dont have option. I changed my insurance in May2023 from intact to some other insurance company. My current broker completed the policy to cancel my insurance from intact. Still my money (390$) got deducted from my account. I called intact insurance broker and she again sent me forms to sign to cancle the policy and again it was deducted from my account. Before leaving for India, I called that broker again and she said she will look into it and cancle it. Today is september 14,2023 when my money again got deducted. Today she told me that she is not my broker, not responsible to cancel my policy, I should call office now, my insurance is not with intact. I am in India and getting upset for this type of professionalism

Shop somewhere else

As soon as you're a customer, anytime you call there they send you to speak to different people who are rude as heck. They're very friendly until they have your money and then they treat you like dirt once they do.
I opened the account here and my husband had to come on the phone and authorize me to do so under his name. All was fine. They took our payment, they let me file a claim and get our car fixed. They let me negotiate a cheaper price for one year. Never did my husband ever have to call or speak with them for anything after that first time.
Then I call to cancel the policy because they keep raising the price and this year raised the price 300$ with no explanation. I can get better coverage for 400$ less at another auto insurance. So when I tell them Im canceling they told me: "Sorry, you don't have authority on the file!" What!!!??? Because it's 15 minutes before closing time and my policy renews the next day, so they did this so that we have to pay cancellation fees.
I told them I obviously have authority because my husband had to give it in order for me to even open the policy so please speak with your supervisor and check the file for the notes. They refused and refused to request a supervisor.

Absolutely disgusted

by Kwooldridge on Dec 16, 2022

After 15 years with Intact, my husband and I missed a payment as we were switching banks. According to intact, they sent us a registered letter; that we did not receive; they called an old home phone number that hasn’t been active for 10 years. They then proceeded to cancel our home and auto insurance. One. Missed. Payment. is 2 weeks before Christmas. I don’t even have words to describe how despicable I think this company is. On top of this, they won’t speak to us. We’ve had to speak with them through a broker. So even though we paid; three days late, they still cancelled it. Luckily we have a second vehicle with separate insurance and some home insurance coverage with our bank; we have a friend who owns a brokerage who can help us, but what about the people who don’t? I can’t even imagine who this person is making these decisions. Whoever you are, hope you can sleep at night.

Can’t do their job

by DKJ on Sep 8, 2022
1 out of 5 stars

I had canceled my policy to go with someone else. Gaven them their notice properly. Because they can’t do their jobs probably they still have taken the money and caused my account to bounce all my other payments. So now I can’t do anything until they give back my money that they had no right to take. I have incurred fees for their incompetence. And all the stress to go with it. Also, need to add can’t get my meds or food now because of them. When I told this them. Their answer to me was THERE ARE PROCEDURES TO RETURN MONEY. AND IT WILL TAKE 30 DAYS TO RETURN MY MONEY. This is not right or fair.

Terrible customer service

by Jay L on Sep 13, 2021

Several hours on the phone trying to figure out why they charged me another month after cancelling. Both Intact and their brokerage partner told me they do not know and I would have to contact the other group. Would never recommend to anyone.

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.

Horrible Customer Service

by Blair Snow on Aug 9, 2021
1 out of 5 stars

A 1 star is way too high for Intact/Brokerlink. This company has a revolving door of rude, undertrained, and ill-equipped staff who are unable and unwilling to work with clients. Every interaction with this company was painful. For example, a simple address change took 5 associates, 6 follow-up phone calls, 10 emails and 4 months and they never got the address correct. When I cancelled my insurance they continued to charge for months after the cancellation. Multiple complaints and the "manager" that contacted me had no authority or ability to resolve the issues. Simply a brutal company with little regard for their customers.

Awful policy and worst system

by İc on Jun 4, 2021
1 out of 5 stars

Intact has consumed my time in tricky ways.
I had an accident.
They played psychic games too much and finally, they denied everything.
I did not like my experience with them.
They also did not cancel my insurance after the accident till I sold the car totally.
Intact Insurance is cheap because it is a total scam system.
I am very sad to choose them because of their advertisements and the broker's wrong recommendation.
They are very rude and they know how to use psychic approaches to shut you down.
In fact, their system is like a toxic snake system and instead of helping you. They will hurt you much more than the accident.
Just avoid...

Worst company of my life

by Jack on May 14, 2021

I send them that I don’t want to renew with them. They send me a notice one month later, they said: "they didn’t receive my payment". I contacted my insurance broker ( because we can’t deal directly with Intact), they said I should advise by phone my broker. (that s not true) and they ask me for new insurance proof or I have to pay... I said it is not your business what is my new insurance company. I send them a legal letter, then, they cancelled my insurance. Also, I was with them since 2013 and we never claimed anything buy they increased my insurance between 10-15% every year. Avoid this company!

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.

Unethical practices

by tmacmic on Jan 26, 2021

1st issue:

I was originally denied a claim even though it was not my fault, with witnesses and a police statement. It took 7 months to resolve the issues, receive money for my claim because they low balled my claim and continued to do so for months. All the while still paying a monthly premium without a vehicle tied to the policy.

2nd issue:

I had a policy under Jevco Ins. that Intact Ins. owns. Without warning, documentation, or consent on my behalf, Intact Ins switched my insurance, rose my premiums by 100% and when I inevitably cancelled the policy they hit me with a cancellation fee higher than my rate. Very unethical company.
