What does Intact do? This is my 2nd claims experience in 2 years. The first was when someone turned left in front of him writing off both cars and leaving my son with surgery to fix 3 broken bones. Intact (despite saying he had $30K of medical support) would only approve physio by a therapist who charges 99 dollars per hour or less - they would not honour the same total dollar value. Useless. We ended up footing ALL bills ourselves.
I had a garbage truck strike my car while parked. So far (9 days later)... Despite reporting using their app to submit claims and photos and me calling - still no emails. No, follow up. no rental car. No appraisal -NOTHING.
This is - BY FAR - the worst insurance company I have EVER interacted with...
Today is July 3rd, 2022. I have a vehicle claim that started back in January 2022 and has been nothing but a headache since. a claims advisor has not once contacted us even though Intact has told me on several occasions that she would. I have reached out many times to her by email and phone messages and have still heard nothing. Our rental car needed to be extended due to the delay from Intact in getting our vehicle repaired. 3 months later we find out the rental car hadn't been fully paid for by Intact and was therefore put on MY CREDIT CARD. Over, the now 5 months since my initial claim I have called Intact directly many many times. Each time being reassured it was being taken care of and that someone would contact me in a couple of days. Yet I still have not heard from anyone and the bill has not been taken care of. I have asked each time I've called, to speak to a supervisor but each time they refuse to put me through to a supervisor due to "proper protocols" needing to be followed.
This kind of service is despicable, especially with the amount we pay for insurance. They owe me over $900.00 from an unpaid rental car bill. What do we pay a deductible for if we are the ones doing all the leg work... for 5 months?!
My son bought a SUV and insured it with Intact. Five months later a tree fell on his car. It took 5 days for him to receive a response from Intact.This is a recurring theme, Intact often waits 5 days before responding to his emails, and he has never been able to get a human on the phone. The mechanic told him it would be repaired so he left some personal items that he didn't need right away in the vehicle. A month later, Intact confirmed it would be repaired. They then had the car transferred to another chain of the mechanic an hour away to be repaired because the local mechanic was backlogged. This new mechanic found another $500 damage, so now Intact won't be fixing it. They're going to write it off. Now my son, who hasn't had a vehicle for 6 weeks, (and hasn't been looking for one because he was supposed to be fixed), is supposed to find a ride an hour away to get his stuff out of the car. They also only offered him what he owes on the car, not what it will cost to replace it, which would leave him without a down payment for a new car. Why say you'll fix it, haul it an hour away, then change your mind for $500 extra? And why wouldn't you pay him the market value? Now he has to search online for identical vehicles to show them what the car is actually worth to replace! It's been 6 weeks! Either fix it or give him what it's worth!
My other son and I were both considering switching our policies, but that isn't happening now! I'd rather pay an extra $10 a month and have an insurance company that cares!
I was involved in an accident while completely parked! It took this company over a month to approve repairs! That being said, I missed 2 1/2 months of work due to negligence! Half a year after the said accident, I am still waiting for the loss of wages to be paid and may lose my home because of it! I am a single mother who just spent Christmas with nothing to give due to the lack of concern this company gives! Now, I am facing eviction for the same reason!
Literally the worst insurance out there!!! Had an accident on January 2, 2022; the car is still at the tow truck 37 days later waiting to be towed to the auto shop recommended by Intact. As for the adjuster assigned to the case, doesn’t even bother to answer her phone or call us back, wondering if she even still works there!!! Unbelievable what we are going through… finally been able to get through to other adjusters and everyone has a different story. Nobody solving the problem! So we wait and wait and wait...
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.
This is the WORST experience with car insurance in my whole 22 years of driving!!! I started my claim for a damaged driver’s door (the car is not drivable because of this). It has been just short of 2 MONTHS!!!! No response, I have tried calling multiple times, emailing multiple times. Tried this again with a supervisor. Literally, no response so I can move forward. I was given a claim number and then blocked from using it to get work done. They won’t respond to allow me to rent a car. I have been forced to walk with my 2 young children during the winter, while they CONTINUE TO WITHDRAW PAYMENTS!!!! RUN RUN RUN in the opposite direction!! TRUST ME!
Theft of my catalytic converter, Dec 20, 2021. Reported on the 20th. The claim started, an estimate was received and submitted by 2 pm, along with the police report. It is now Jan 10th and I have been in a rental car for 18 days for a $4K repair. The attitude of everyone I speak with is what is your problem yours in a rental car. Well, that rental car costs money to somebody every day. The company they all work for. The company that I pay for my policies. But no one is mandated with saving costs. 20 days to get approval on a 3-hour repair job and I still don't have it approved but they approved the rental car?? How does that make any sense? I'm left speechless!
I had an M.V.A. on June 19/'23 in Pittsburgh, PA, and my vehicle is still there, WHY?
1) I still don't know where exactly where my vehicle is.
2) I don't know WHEN it'll come back to Canada.
3) After the initial estimate of damages, parts are NOT ordered yet?
4) When I will be driving my BRAND NEW (2023 HONDA CR-V) S.U.V. again?
Nothing but excuses and lies!
My vehicle was damaged while parked. I had to continually follow up with the agent assigned for over 3 weeks. No repairs had been started, or approvals provided to the body shop. Had left over 10 messages for status, and the agent never called me back or apologized for any delay. What does one get for paying their fees... The worst insurance company I've dealt with! I will be pulling my business!
To call Customer Service... On the phone the whole morning... On hold... Still wasn't able to talk to anyone.
Called my adjuster directly... Cannot get hold of him. This is the third time I tried to reach him.
Regarding my auto insurance claim, I have to take the initiative, called the auto shop, they only got the pictures that I sent the adjuster more than a week ago. They say pictures are not enough, have to bring the car in. The adjuster will advise me. Up to now, the adjuster still didn't call. I have to take initiative again and again and schedule an appointment myself with the auto shop.
TERRIBLE... TERRIBLE.... will switch once the policy expires.
WARNING TO EVERYONE THINKING OF USING INTACT INSURANCE... DON'T!
