After many attempts and calls, the representative took the matter to her manager and through her work she got a resolution to my claim issue.
Thanks to the rep and her team.

Terrible car insurance do not use!!

by Samantha on Apr 30, 2024
1 out of 5 stars

My car was hit by another driver while I was parked, and it was totaled. This insurance company was not at all helpful. They had me contact the other person's insurance and refused to help me at all. When I contacted the other person's insurance, they were shocked because I should not be calling them at all. Long story short, I’ve been paying for cabs the past week. Haven’t heard anything from my insurance. DO NOT USE

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.

Outstanding service!

I just concluded a fabulous conversation with represantative. He went out of his way to solve the insurance problem I was having. His assistance was thorough and creative. Better yet he was realistic and honest as he listened, and proposed solutions which he was able to follow through on the same day! At the same time he was easy to talk too and very supportive and caused me feel like an important, and valuable client and not just another client making demands. Thank you.

Garbage online chat

by Johnson is Trash on Sep 9, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

I spoke to one representative of Johnson Insurance, which was the worst experience ever. And even ended the chat without my agreeing hence I could not download the whole chat log of rude responses. Like why can't I say a bit less than 20000? Don't policies show 10000, 20000, 25000 etc? (see chat log below). And why I asked if I want to do a road trip and will up my driving up to 28000 how much more would I be paying, he just said they don't and will not do hypothetical estimates, and just disconnected the chat and I was kicked out. Guess poor people like me don't deserve decent services.

Absolute Garbage Insurance

by Nbr87 on Jul 8, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

I've been using these guys prior to the big changes, and ever since they've been complete garbage. They put on the wrong insurance coverage on my paperwork, so when I got in a car accident I had to get it all changed for proper coverage. This rose my price from 87$ to 197$ a month. Then they raised my price again at 209$ after the renewal. Then I switched vehicles and they quoted me for 260$ a month. Great, I can manage that. I ended up paying 336$ instead. On top of this, I was told last month I'd be paying 168$ after credits. It wasn't even close. There was "no record of that quote." The customer service is absolute trash, the people on the phone sound like they hate their life, and hate yours even more. They get short with you when you ask questions. Don't even bother, look for another insurance company and save yourself from trouble. I dropped them and went with a better one yesterday. I'll gladly pay the cancellation fee to never see their name again.

Worst Service Ever

I have a terrible experience with this insurance, find a better one instead. I have to wait 2 hours until someone will pick-up the phone, then the call will be off on their end and directed it to somewhere. Frustrated by their adjusters as you ask questions they tend to give you an attitude. They are not willing to assist and help. What's the point of cheaper insurance if they are unreachable?! Go find a broker instead that will give you a better offer.

Worst Overall Experience

by MD2424 on Apr 22, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

Johnsons Insurance is the worst. I would never recommend anyone to go with this company. I don’t usually give reviews but Johnsons gave me a hard time and compelled me to do this. Before onboarding the client they will call you 10 times a day, give all the offers in the world, but once you’re all set they will not even bother to reply to your emails. Representatives from St.Johns were the worst customer care I have ever talked to. The agent did not know what he was talking about. He was rude and very unprofessional and he hung up on me without answering my questions. I called them again, some other agent picked up and she said things completely different than the previous agent. They will not give you valid reasons for an increase in your renewed auto premium amount. They increased my premium by 1500Cad where I had no accidents, no claims, no tickets, no address change, nothing and they did not have any valid reason to do that. I am quitting on them and switching to another company even if I have to pay them extra cause I am done with their service. It’s such a pain always!

Signed up for New Auto Policy

by Triple A in Mississauga on Aug 23, 2017
4.5 out of 5 stars

I have read posted reviews and hope I have made right decision to move my policy to Johnson / Unifund Assurance from 10+ years at TD Security National. In the arduous decision-making process, I obtained numerous quotes from various providers. Not all quotes are created equal (e.g. deductible amount, $1M vs $2M liability, etc) and like most things in life, you get what you pay for. I did not base my decision on lowest rates (which they were not but they were among the lower ones) more about transparency about policy coverage and experience with the service on the phone. I called Johnson three times to get further clarification as I learned about premium options and narrowed down my choices. I was able to contact the rep, Sandi D., easily each time and she was the only sales rep out of the 7 companies that I called who (without prompting from me) actually took the time to break down the policy in detail and explain each of the premium inclusions and options. Make sure you know these before you just go with the "cheapest" quote. Lowballing rates could indicate the company would be lowballing you on claims. My quoted rate and coverage seemed excellent, as I benefitted from one of their professional group rates. I also asked for quote with secondary driver as my daughter is planning to obtain G2 in near future and Johnson rate for this was excellent and they also offered temp lower rate if child away at school (not all companies do this and check on distance requirements). I also inquired about conditions for future rate increases in case their quote was a "loss leader" to get you "in the door" as I do not plan on being an insurance hopper each year. I even tried calling claims line to see how easily I could get through, as reps from Sales dept. who are hired to get your business, are not the tel no or people you will ever call afterwards. Though one hopes they would never have to make a claim, satisfaction with an insurance provider is best measured in the client's experience with service during claims process. And if disgruntled, that's when you usually hear from customers on sites like these as most people only post review if unsatisfied. Though I hope I don't have to ever make a claim, if i do, I will revisit this site to see if my decision to bring my business to Johnson and give a great rating to start is warranted. The proof will be in the "claims" pudding and I hope I don't have to eat my words and regret this decision.

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.

The one thing that separates them from other insurers is their customer satisfaction. They treat their clients in the best way possible.
