Intact Insurance Auto Insurance Reviews

We ended up with Intact insurance because they bought out our previous insurers. If you are going to buy a company, you need to continue their service. Intact is the worst company I've ever dealt with. We have a small claim a month ago and still no action. The adjuster we were given must be on vacation because of several emails and 5 phone calls and she still hasn't responded and hadn't submitted the photos we sent. I suspect we won't get a settlement until months from now. We will definitely be looking for another provider as soon as this is settled.

Literally, the worst insurance company I have ever dealt with. Save your time and your sanity and never choose Intact.
(1) Took me a month to just get an ESTIMATE of the total damages to my vehicle after my accident
(2) Now I'm now stuck playing phone tag with people who apparently are never around trying to get an estimated repair date.
(3) It took them 4 days and 3 phone calls to actually start my claim
(4) It took them a week to tow my vehicle from the collision centre location to the city where I live
(5) Another week to tow it to the correct body shop at my dealership because they brought it to the wrong place - their own shop, not the one I noted
(6) Another two weeks to get the estimated repair amount AND BIG surprise, I didn't even get the estimated repair amount from Intact Insurance - I got it from the body shop itself because Intact is too incompetent to reach out in a timely manner.

Can't even call their general phone line because you're on hold for over an hour and then the line gets disconnected... They want to repair a $28,000 vehicle with almost $18,000 in damages. The biggest joke. Would not recommend Intact to my worst enemy.

Never NEVER use this insurance company! My Mom had a small accident 4 weeks ago in Parry Sound. Yep, 4 weeks of trying to get the adjuster to call back. First, the car was towed to wreckers, then without my Mom's consent was taken to Orillia for some unknown reason. Eventually, it was brought back to a reliable auto body shop here in Parry Sound, who cared more for my Mom than Intact did. The shop called Mom today to tell her the car would be scrapped...Intact's decision. Once again Mom called the insurance company and ONCE again was told the adjustor was not available. They then told her she would call back tomorrow, which we feel is another lie. Short of seeing a lawyer we really don't know what to do at this point. I am sure he could hear my potty mouth in the background and will hear it straight up when I am the advocator that will be calling them tomorrow. Take advantage of my senior Mom....nope not happening!

Please don't use Intact. It's a scam. Employees are rude, unorganized, take a long time to get a response. They only pay what they want. They are too lazy to come out and look at the truck. And tried to put USED parts on a truck that was 3 years old. You are better off without insurance...

A drunk driver hit my vehicle along with 2 others parked outside my house. This was on Friday, Dec 11th at 2:45 am. They just delay everything as long as they can and do not actually anything to help. I've been after them for 2 weeks now and finally on Tuesday, Dec 29th I get the estimate for damage done to my vehicle. They keep telling me lies and I've caught them in many of them. I write down everything, Dates/Times/Names. Now they are trying to push everything onto the junkyard my vehicle is sitting at for delays. Meanwhile, they have done nothing and don't respond when they say "we will contact you in 24-48 hours". Was 142 hours before they gave me any info. Then to talk to an adjuster they said he would call me back with their "Guaranteed callback within 4 hours" which again took 22 hours for them to contact me. The WORST company out there. Just look at all the bad reviews. They speak for themselves. Don't go with this company and save yourself the headache later in life.

A claim was filed and the car was deemed totalled. They offered quite below market value for a car with average mileage, good shape and more features. Their arguing point was paint chipping in the hood (which had a deflector!!!). No 5 years car in Canada has perfect paint unless repainted! After acrimonious dealing, they went up only to the cheapest/worst car in the market and took the rental from us. Very rude adjuster and supervisor. As instructed by industry regulators, I filed an appeal to 2nd line in Intact and the lady delayed the process. She only moved every time I called her. In the end, they went up a bit, and I accepted to lose around 12% of what would be reasonable. They didn't send a check until I called again. They ended up sending a pre-dated letter and check (the post stamp shows the right date), violating the law (they have 60 days from the original claim date to send the payment, at least the undisputed amount). It was so incriminating, that they sent a letter adding the rental fees as part of the settlement, which again, it's illegal as the fair market value is for the car value plus taxes, not including additional coverages. Not only that, but they also kept charging the prime for 3 months after the car was declared totalled and in their possession. Shortsighted company because they lost me as a client with 2 cars and a home (they would have recovered the difference in a few months), and I have talked many people out of this terrible company.

Absolutely horrible experience I'm going through at the moment. I had an accident about 2 months ago where the other driver was at fault and charged. My vehicle was completely totalled. At first, they were quick to help me make my claim, they were on top of everything, and provided me with the information I needed. After that first day; it's impossible to get a hold of ANYONE. I've called at least 5 times a day for the last two months, probably filled up their entire voicemail box, e-mailed them every day, and didn't receive a single response!!! I needed physio, I needed settlement money to get a new vehicle, I needed to know what was going on. Even my insurance broker couldn't and still can't get a hold of them!!!! They couldn't even send me paperwork on time. I got my personal injury paperwork about 3.5 weeks after the accident and had 2 days to get it in before it expired... I emailed them asking if I still had time to submit everything and got no response (needed my employer to sign some papers but he was on vacation so I couldn't get it in)... I did get a rental car for 3 weeks, but the second they offered me a settlement (horrible offer) they took the rental away and I've been left without a vehicle and without money for over a month... I told them I deserved a lot more based on the service they've been provided, and the fact my vehicle was in 10/10 condition before the accident with brand new tires and they said their offer was the best they could do which is complete nonsense. They DON'T CARE, they honestly do not care about their customers. In a perfect world, I would love to sue to get what I deserve in this situation, but I just don't have the time or money right now and just want my settlement money to move on. I'm such an easy-going person and never complain about any negative situation, but this is by far the worst experience I've ever had. DO NOT GO WITH THEM, so many better companies out there; even if you're paying a little extra per month in insurance, do it so you can get better service.

Two years ago, me and 3 or 4 resident on my street got their car vandalized. For myself, it was a little scratch and a hole the size of a hammer head. They originally planned to replace the panel with a hole for a new one and redo the painting where the scratch was... simple right? Nope... when the Assured Automotive first delivered the car, they gave it back to me in worse condition than it was before the incident. I did this little charade 4 times, bringing the car back for them to fix it, but every time the car came back with most of the problems unresolved. I've contacted Intact representative multiple time, they told me multiple times they were tracking, they even sent an assessor to make sure the job was done properly, but we are at the 2 years mark, and they still refuse to send my car somewhere here to be fixed. AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COST!!!!!

I just had minor scratch on my from bumper left which happened after contact a cycle rack on a parked car. So i thought i will check with my intact and they said i have to pay $500 from my pocket and the rest, they will take care of...
I dont know how they replaced the front bumper but the bill was more than $2000!!! For what? I was asked to pay $500 which i did but i think its a scam they are running to fool people... I could have replaced the bumper myself for less than $400... but intact made a bill of more than $2000 from which i had to pay $500...this is unacceptable and unethical. I AM LOOKING for other car insurance companies who may not fool me..
