Intact Insurance Auto Insurance Reviews

The notification for my change came late in the mail. By the time I received the letter, it was two days late so they changed over $200 for the cancellation fee.

They make it extremely difficult in contacting personnel. Extremely poor and disrespectful customer service. Nobody asked me the reason I quit Intact insurance.
It seems they don't care...

I have a twin who lives in the same area. We have the same driving record, drive the same (exact) make/model vehicle (though his is 3 years newer). Intact charged me 2 1/2 times what he was paying (I pay yearly, he pays monthly). When I shopped around I found that I was not only paying a lot more for insurance but was also not allotted discounts (Hybrid, snow tires, good driving record, low mileage...). The next highest quote was 1/2 what Intact was charging me. The next was what my brother was paying and the fourth was 1/4 (with the requirement that I install a driving gizmo to monitor driving). Don't go with Intact until you shop around!

Do not sign up with Intact. We had an accident out of province - the phones lines were crossed (calling the number on the back of the insurance card led to intact Quebec not Intact Ontario, leading to more confusion); waited over an hour in winter on side of the road to speak with someone; the person we dealt with was unfriendly and unhelpful; we ended up sourcing the solution to the car fix/replacement vehicle ourselves. The whole situation was stressful and Intact refused to pay for services deemed safe and necessary by more than one mechanic. Terrible service, terrible coverage. The last people you want to deal with when you’ve just had an accident. Leaving Intact as soon as I can - hoping to save others from this totally sub-par experience. **would have given zeros stars to this rating but it was not an option*

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...

I was insured by my company with Intact Insurance, Last year someone T boned my car after bitting the stop sign. I was not at fault, they firmed my car and paid for my medical bills. Intact wrongly reported the accident on my driver's license as 50 percent at fault. I called Intact to fix the problem, they told me it shows in their system that I wasn't at fault. Why does it show up on my drivers record as 50 percent at fault and my insurance has gone up 300 percent because of their incompetence? I would advise anyone not to use Intact as their automobile insurance as they will screw you over.

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.
