They are not accommodating

by Lisa st-Martin on Oct 9, 2024
1 out of 5 stars

I received notice that my car was a total loss via an email, not even a verbal discussion. Then the clock starts ticking to return the rental when it was promised that I could return it in a Friday since the vehicle is out of town. No compromise - nothing, and all we were asking was two additional days. I need to pay for a full week. I will never recommend this company and everyone will hear about this situation.

I have been with them for over 30 years. Wow. What customer service.

Intact Unprofessionalism

by Nicola Sonsini on Jun 25, 2024
2 out of 5 stars

My car got hit and was a write-off (not at fault) They have a police where 2 days after they give you the offer to settle you have to return the rental car.
When I was given the offer to settle the accident, I told them I'd talk to my wife and get back to them. So I called them back and didn't get an answer and left a message (Wednesday). Thursday came around and I left another message. Friday I left another message and at this point now the car is do back before 5, and without a response from them, I can't do anything or move forward with a new car because I can't get a hold of them. So I would be without a car for the weekend and would have to forfeit my weekend plans (cottage) So I kept the rental till Monday, сalled and left another message, no reply, so I then tried to switch adjusters, they tried calling my first one and couldn't contact her either. Finally, on Tuesday I got a call back, and now I owe $124 for the rental. Even though my adjuster disappeared for four business days and couldn't let me move forward with a new car, they still won't cover the car rental, and not a single person even apologized for my adjuster going missing for four days, leaving my in limbo.
Very unprofessional, let me know you'll be out of office, cover the $124 for screwing me over, even an apology would have been nice. But no, they just kept repeating “you only get two days with the rental after offer”.

The worst company

by Leidy Mercedes on Apr 1, 2024

They tell you that they are going to collect the payment on a date and they collect it before and then they penalize you for not paying. Customer service is not responding. Please stay away from this company.

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.

Highway collision

by David on Feb 13, 2024
5 out of 5 stars

After having a collision on the highway with over $15000 in damage to my vehicle it was considered a total write off. And my experience with my Insurance Company Intact was excellent. The staff was very helpful in every respect. I recommend this company. And I will definitely stay with them.

Dealing with Intact both personally and professionally

by JayN on Dec 16, 2021
1.3 out of 5 stars

Negatives though, I call them about 4 times a week professionally. A mix of adjusters extensions and calling the on-hold wait line.
The adjusters have never responded to a single email I've sent. So that is in the dozens to a hundred or so just this month. I've had one adjuster call me back from a VMail I left among dozens or hundreds as well.
Sadly the best option is the adjuster's extension, however, their pick-up rate vs. answering machine is approximately 1/12 or so attempts. Whereas the on-hold line takes up so much time it is prohibitive. I am presently on hold, hold began at 1:35 pm and it is now 3:50 pm while I'm writing this. So the holds are usually around 2 hours, and this is the worst yet at well over 2 hours so far and still waiting. The only reason I'm on hold is that I absolutely need to speak with someone and this is day 8 without getting through to anyone, which is unusual, but also awful.
1 star or less forever. I'd easily be giving this a 3 start without any improvements if they simply added a CALL BACK OPTION as many others have. Then it wouldn't be prohibitive to call the hold line since I could continue with my other business. Being unable to use my phone these past 2.5 hours is costing not only time but money in a very obvious way. I'm missing out on business.
I'll be dealing with Intact less in the future business-wise after writing this and realizing the clear abusive nature of our relationship. So now this is affecting their business and not just mine. I'll be dropping my personal policy with them tomorrow as of this writing.
TLDR: They're too big to care about their terrible customer service as well as being in the past on technology available for over a decade. Avoid them.

Been with Intact for decades...

by Super stressed and disappointed on Oct 7, 2021
1.3 out of 5 stars

This company is the worst insurance company I ever dealt with. Leave a message after message take weeks to answer back can never get the representative to answer the phone over a month now and not resolved. I was a victim of someone running thru a stop sign and ramming my car going to cost thousands of dollars over their second settlement offer to replace my three-year-old car...
Settlement Offer way below market value!
I have to provide comparable vehicles as the ones they give are not even close to my vehicle. They want to write off my car or if I keep and repair I have to take a low ball offer to pay parts and half labor but then I have to pay them scrap rate to keep the car. That is over 3,500.00 they want to claw back for something I paid over 32,000.00 for.
It such a rip-off co surprised a company that has been around as long as they have and treat clients this way unbelievable still in business! Never felt so much stress in my entire life.

Bait and switch! 2x Premiums

by ontario on Apr 15, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

I have a 20-year driving history with NO accidents or claims. They quoted me an amazing home + auto rate, contingent on my switching my license to a local Ontario license (I recently moved to the province for work). I purchased my vehicle, switched my license but when I went to start my insurance, my premiums were OVER DOUBLE! When I pressed them for details they said 'oh you were given a "rough quote", your actual payments may differ'. I expected a small variation, not 2x! I have spoken with at least 5 different people at Intact to try to clarify the issue, providing additional documentation, etc. and they refuse to change my rates. Their customer service response is slow, taking at least a day or two to get back to me. Worse, they have an absolutely awful cancellation policy where they don't refund you all your money (probably because they can't stand by their product and want to lock you into their substandard, expensive service). I would absolutely not use this company again, very disappointed.
