This is a company solely out for themselves. They have set up policies that undermine your right for fair market for the consumer. They try to force the client to their approved body shop at which point body shop, if they want to do Intact claims, has to adhere to their method of order. It is all funnels through a third (unnecessary ) party who takes a 4% cut, then Intact takes another 4% cut plus a deduction after billing. This method has saved Intact over 90 billion dollars, you read it right. 90 billion. Did they pass those savings on to the consumer who they are there to help? Nope, didn't think so.
Run away!! from this unethical disgusting Corporation! once you have a claim (rear ended) and are seriously injured , not at fault. This company is soo unethical! they ask for records that go above and beyond WHAT THEY ARE LAWFULLY allowed to collect, and from the first day, fight you to not pay you, they will send you to all sort of practitioners that are in cohorts with them and pay thousands of dollars (and those go taken from your payments) instead of paying you, your life is turned upside down and nobody cares. People give up trying because to sue is hard, but if your doctors care and support you,get a good lawyer, and they do the fight! ,

After being paid out $3,000 on my accident Intact without my knowledge registered a $14,000 "encumbrance" against the title of my vehicle , making the $28,000 car worth $6,000 on the open market. It was unsalable to the private buyer and unwanted by dealers as a trade-in. Intact failed to disclose the registration on title and until attempting to trade the vehicle I had no knowledge of their actions. While investigating my concerns it was brought to my attention that Intact Insurance had purchased Broker-link Brokerage in Dundas and for numerous years "neglected" to inform me that they in fact had never ever shopped my insurance needs to other companies for the best prices. For many years Intact and Broker Link overcharged me for auto insurance based on what many other people with my good driving record were paying elsewhere. Intact failed to fully disclose and broke many integrity rules. The Insurance industry Ombudsmen has been notified for investigation. For over 30 years I was a loyal customer only to find out that I was being very poorly treated and represented.
I was ran over in a crosswalk by a guy who uses intact insurance. I also am insured by them. I was hurt really badly, driver admitted hitting me in crosswalk he was charged under motor vehicle act, tried in court and convicted. After accident my wife suggested getting legal counsel as she felt I would get run around.
Lawyer started claim on my behalf. Had conference with adjuster told I would be given section b benefits for medical/ lost wages. Great atleast things would get taken care of. Boy was I wrong. First thing I get sent to a physio company, I was promised by intact they would pay. Here I am in physio with a head full of pain killers been there 12 sessions. Next thing I know I'm being told my physio wasn't being paid I had to cover cost. I couldn't work had a 4 year old at home and only wife's income which was part time as she was in college. I have lawyer call and get told by intact just to pay as the paperwork was being processed. They stated I would be renibursed but I couldn't afford to pay as them nasty little things called bills wait for no man. I had to quit as 175 per season x 12= 2100 dollars. Didn't intact use this against me saying I hadn't done enough to mitigate my injuries? You bet they did
Now I'm promised section b benefits of 80 present of my wages. After weeks of nothing I get told before section b begins I have to use my employment insurance illness benefits and once they lapse I'm covered. I found this weird the government had to pay out for a injury they were liable for. So the Sick benefits run out and still no section b coverage. Eleven months later and bills piling up I get a check Christmas Eve.
Section B payments were 140 per week or 560 per month no where near 80 percent of my wages.(welfare recipients made more per month) Then one month check is on time next it's late. At times it would be two months before I got a check other times it wouldn't come due to adjuster vacation or they forgot. Hard to live and pay bills when you never know if a check it coming.
Wife and I go to renew insurance as we also use intact. Premiums tripled so we inquire. States I have two claims one for a minor accident I aknowledge and another for a claim the same date I was run over. They used my policy to pay me section b even though I was walking across a street when hit. Hell of a time to correct this and is still on my record!
5 years later still no compensation heading to court as I'm not believed even though plenty of documented proof of injury and they never sent me to a dr to despite my claim. Been harassed by there private investigators constant at home and at work. They even stalked my wife's work. Never have I seen such a deplorable company. I laugh at the tv ads. They are not out to help just save money and gouge everyone in process. If you ever have a claim hire a lawyer expect to be harassed neglected and called a liar
They will screw you any way they can and can get away with it. Your truly a David vs Goliath.
After a no fault accident I could not get the correct information from the adjusters. I could never speak to the same person twice & had to continually repeat my story. Terrible experience.
I had a terrible experience, I had 2 cars; First I was paying$420, all of a sudden they raised for $501 next month and then again they raised $550, I have no idea how much they will go up up. It is only few more months, I am not ever every getting the insurance and any from it. Too bad, I would not recommend to anyone because of the terrible experience
This company is a joke, they do not care about their customers. They are the definition of a sneaky insurance company. Never use Intact insurance, you will be completely dissatisfied with them if you ever need to make a claim, or have to interact with the company in any way. They do not want to work with you, they just want your money and will do everything possible(including illegal things) to make sure you are not helped and they make more money. Huge mistake
Got tired of rising rates, and girlfriend and I both went with PC which has much lower rates. Girlfriend went in and signed some cancellation papers at the end of her agreement, I just let mine lapse, I don't sign cancellation papers with Safeway because I start buying milk at IGA. They stole 2 extra payments from her acc. she changed banks and they sent her a bill?? They have tried to steal money from me, but I don't make monthly payments. Do not let them have access to your bank account! Do not deal with them at all. This has got to be some American scam, someone's post said they take extra money as some kind down payment in case you end up owing them money in the future??? It is theft plain and simple, and I don't want to see these shady practices in Canada!
Shiuld be -5 stars...Do not get insurance with them. i was with them for years. they are very good at taking money from your account. even when they shouldnt. and they wont give it back. they keep it as credit for you. if something happens they will not call you back. so forget being treated like a valued customer. it doesnt matter how many messages you leave with them. they drag their feet. they dont keep you informed and they flat out dont care. I WILL NEVER DEAL WITH THEM AGAIN. I suggest you dont as well.
I had an accident in which I was hit by a car but the car took off. I reported the accident to the police with the license plate of the car that hit me. It was clear by the police report that it was the other car's fault. Intact stalled asking me to fill out forms after forms and then finally made an offer. They said that it was a write off even though the mechanics said that it was not. They said that the car was worth a lot less than it was. I was told that I should gather information on sales of other vehicles in similar conditions and submit it but when I did they changed their minds and said that it wouldn't change anything. It was over a year before they paid me the money. They stall until you finally give in. I will never use them for insurance again! The people that I dealt with were constantly contradicting themselves. Their commercial is that they start your claim immediately but they don't tell you that they never finish it
