Agent penalized me for cancelling after the renewal date, which was a lot more than expected. Again called to confirm cancellation and got different numbers from another agent. For my satisfaction, they told me it’s the date when you cancel the insurance matters and the premium but we can’t calculate, it’s the system that tells us. Do not fall prey to this bad service where initially they give less amount and later rip off customers.
I would give less stars if I could. I have been with them since 2009 with no claims. Well, unfortunately in the last two years I have had to make two claims. Today I got the phone call that I’ve read so much about in reviews. They are dropping me. I was able to switch companies for a slight increase, unlike their affiliate that they recommended, who wanted $3600 a year for my SUV. No thanks.
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.
Feel like being completely scammed? This insurance company might be right for you! They’ll offer extremely high insurance with lots of fine print additional costs that won’t be mentioned over the phone when you additionally sign up! Feel like escaping the hell hole that you made the mistake of falling into? You can’t! They’ll charge you for the next month’s insurance (even though you won’t be covered that month) and then return SOME* of it back after 3-4 WEEKS (*ofc this is after the penalty fee they never mentioned will be deducted!—mine was $140 for cancelling it ONE MONTH before my policy expired). These losers just can’t wait to steal your money, especially if you tell them over the phone you’re a student and the money they’re taking away from you is going towards the food you need to eat that month!
Last month I inquire about the penalty if I cancel my insurance with them and the customer service agent told me it will be $20 to $30 and I asked them to confirm me twice before cancelling and after cancelling today I was charged $216. When I call their customer service today their agent told me that total penalty will be $250 and rest of the money they will deduct in few days. I told that agent that before cancelling the insurance I asked your staff and the agent didn't inform me that in total I have to pay $250 for cancellation. In return, I get the response from that agent that we are sorry for inconvenience. Their customer service agents have poor knowledge, what will their 4 words (sorry) give me in return???
Tried to cancel my policy they carried on taking the money out of my bank.
So i cancelled the Payments with my banks Johnsons then said i owe them money and they where cancelling my policy for non payments after i already informed them i did not own the car anymore, rude staff and obnoxious when they talk to you they talk down to you would not recommend to anybody.
Making online monthly payments as they neglected to withdraw funds from my account and they declined payment. They cancelled my insurance and from a 7 star moved me down to a 1 star. From 100 monthly now 300 monthly with no accidents or claims. They also charged me $352 before they would re-write another policy. Would not explain what that was for.
Horrible company to deal with. Have received an email from the company when was trying to add a policy, they said sorry for the 2-week delay - we've been busy.
Then I had to cancel a vehicle policy, after over 10 years of service they penalized me. They did not advise me I can only sell a vehicle when it suits them!
I will not be renewing any policies with them, so many competitive companies out there looking to treat clients better than this... why wouldn't I?!
Requested a quote for my son and their price was 250%++ higher than the company I did choose (Belair Direct) - for exactly same policy inclusions.
When i did not move forward with their quote Johnson's reaction was to demand information about my son that I felt was confidential and private - when he is not even their client! As far as i am concerned I have no right to share his information with them without his approval. That demanding this information is a "policy" of theirs does not overrule my son's right to privacy. And it was at this point that they threatened me - to cancel my policy!???
I proceeded to move everything from Johnson to Belair Direct - saved $550 on auto (over 3 cars), save $700 on house, and even got $200 back on my son's insurance.
VERY horrible experience from both Customer Service and Costing perspectives.
I learned my lesson and will never, ever work with Johnson Insurance again.
If you have a good driving record in AB, you should pay around $110/month (women - $105/month and men - $113/month). Do you overpay? Get an Alberta car insurance quote to start saving.
I have had Johnson as my insurance company for 15 years. I had my husband go last week to add a second vehicle to our policy and it jumped $370. So we switched insurance companies and Johnson decided to charge us the $460. Because we didn't cancel at the end of a month. Stealing our money. So glad we switched companies.
I have been with this company for 15 years. Initially, I had great service with them until I made a second at-fault claim within 5 years. I had not been informed that they changed their policy to not renew after 2 at-fault claims in 5 years instead of 3, the industry standard. They did not take into consideration the fact I had been with them for 15 years and had only 2 at-fault claims and no traffic violations. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. Let everyone know. Unethical companies need to know that these business practices are not OK and that we have power as consumers to demand better treatment.
