Intact Insurance Auto Insurance Reviews

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.

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.

I will never recommend Intact. they are a massive rip-off and will find any way possible to make more money off you when other insurances would lower payments. Their driving app as well is a major joke and made it completely impossible for you to get a good score let alone a decent discount. Plus the app always made up issues with your driving regardless of how you actually drove your car that day. Also dinged you if you answered a hands-free Bluetooth phone call or if your passenger was using your phone. If you want good affordable insurance go to another company! I switched and am now saving $100 a month on insurance and am getting more for what I was paying at Intact. Also, beware of Intact's cancellation fees it is costing me $180 on top of my last monthly payment just to cancel my account with them.

At first, my sister and I were very impressed with this company. They were very helpful, reliable, and professional when we were signing up with them. However, we are getting charged much higher than we were initially quoted and have sent countless emails to try and resolve the issue, but have received no response after WEEKS. These people are unprofessional and unreliable, do not be fooled. Their ratings are horrible for a reason.

My broker gave me less than 24 hours notice that my policy was being cancelled... In the middle of a pandemic... Now I'm paying $100 less at a better company than what I've been paying for 15 years with your company..... Because I was loyal..... But you weren't loyal to me during this pandemic..... Good riddance......my life is better now

Was involved in a not-at-fault accident with injuries. Claim adjudication for the car repair was excellent - claim adjudication for the injuries is awful, unfair, done in bad faith and proves that their word isn't worth the paper it's written on. They cause extreme hardship and not even bother to respond to the lawyer, just waiting on a tribunal date months down the road hoping that you are so much cornered by that time that you will accept their ridiculous settlement intentions.

Dispatchers came to my house... didn’t tow my car. After the second dispatcher came he took pictures of my car and just left without towing my car. Your whole business is towing cars but apparently, something else is wrong but had to find out from the person in the office who has no clue on what’s happening from the customer. I had to get a third party tow truck to tow my car which cost me $100! The experience drove me crazy... Your customer service is impeccable... Thanks a lot!

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.

I am new and inquiring about a policy quote for my vehicle. The customer service was rude of asking a lot of questions and when I said ok, I’ll call another insurance to inquire, he just put the phone down. Very rude, not accommodating, and doesn’t like a new customer!!!

So I go to pay my Intact insurance bill online. They ask me for a 13 digit number for my policy. The number on my invoice is 9 digits long!? Are they economizing on ink? Somebody please, fix this idiotic bug ASAP!
