Worst insurance company

Do not use this insurance company! Premium went up with NO reasons, personnel are not knowledgeable. The last thing that they mentioned was that due to COVID-19 their corporate email shut down. What? They have grit to raise premiums and charge extra money from me but do not have the opportunity to fix their own corporate email...
I sent several emails to the company to find out if there would be a Covid-19 rebate offered like every other insurance company on the planet is offering I got zero response, so my guess is that’s a no. I’ve heard nothing but bad things about this company and I wouldn’t have taken out a policy with them but my original policy with Scotiafinancial passed it off to Unifund Insurance who passed it off to Johnson Insurance. That wasn’t done because they gave me a great rate, in fact I’m paying three hundred dollars more per year with ZERO accidents/tickets than my last policy. Can’t wait to renew...with another company.
I sent an e-mail back on April 14 to put my car on theft/vandalism/windshield/falling object coverage. They didn't get back to me in till I send a second e-mail. Then e-mail still didn't happen. They charge me full in MAY and they still didn't do the necessary changes. Now they are sending me an e-mail that I have to full something online and they will start putting the car on parking insurance on Jun. After 2 months? It is a very difficult time and this company taking advantage of customers and basically robbing them. I told them to cancel my insurance as of today but as per the review I see looks like they will continue to charge.
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!

I had done an insurance claim back in March due to someone sliding into my car and pushing me into a snowbank. Johnson had put me 100% at fault for this accident even though there was nothing I could have done to prevent this accident. A few days later I had sent in dashcam footage of the accident, Johnson had then switched my adjuster without telling me and then had switched me from 100% at fault down to 50% at fault, I was exhausted trying to fight them so I gave up and took the 50%. They are now refusing to renew me and had flagged me as a high-risk driver. Just this month (in September) after finding out this news, I had tried to fight this again and they are saying the video was not clear enough to determine if the road had been narrowed to one lane due to snow, I had then sent a picture of both my car and the other ladies truck right beside each other on the road for proof that the road was, in fact, a 2 car road. After sending in this picture they refuse to email me back or call me back. I would never ever recommend this insurance company to anybody.
