SGI Auto Insurance Reviews

SGI never even look at my truck when I was hit from the back and the accident was not my fault they just denied the claim I am now out of work and living the salvation army homeless shelter

I was in accident jan2 1900 hours another truck(ryder) hit me from behind and damaged the trailer and load restrainsts. I took the load to alberta delivered as per dispatch instruction with a damage front anddriver side window broken hood, hood hinge, electrical not working broken mirrows and vibration in the steering after the accident, On jan 6 I took the truck and trailer back to Saskatoon and phoned SGI. and had 3 sep shops look at the truck. the western star dealer told me the truck was a write off. I went back Ontario with the truck through mi with broken window no horn or broken hood hinge. I waited 2 weeks in Ontario for SGI. to look at the tractor both SGI. and my employer RSB knew wher the tractor was after 2 weeks RSB was wanting me to get some repairs done so I could bring the truck out to Saskatoon for SGI to look at it. the truck sat in sask atoon for 2 days waiting SGI to look ast it my uncle was very sick so they gave a load back to on. as my father brother had died. I took a week off for that and told SGI were the truck was. SGI. then waited a second week to tell me to bring the truck out to regina so that they could look at . I told the the truck might not make it they told me to limb the truck out or tow it out at my expense.

I have lived in Alberta and in the United States and this is by far the worst insurance experience I've had. As it is a government owned insurance company and the only option available, you are forced to be insured by them while they do whatever they can to get themselves the most money. My parked vehicle was hit in a parking lot resulting in a dent on my rear passenger quarter panel. The man responsible called SGI to report the accident but it was deemed a "no-fault" collission. My car was still driveable (no structural damage) but the damage was extremely overvalued and my car was deemed a "total loss". I bought it back as advised by an autobody shop because the repairs wouldn't cost nearly what SGI claimed they would. SGI would not cover the cost of a rental vehicle while my car was in the shop even though the website says "The cost of a rental vehicle is covered if: You're not at fault for the collision and you require a replacement vehicle, providing the at-fault driver's insurance coverage is in order"
This clause does not apply to all vehicles or cases!!
In general, they do whatever they can to keep as much money for themselves even if you are not at fault, are slow at returning calls, and provide vauge information on your claim and their services unless you know specifically what to ask for. I was very disappointed with this whole experience and upset that this is the only option available to people living in Saskatchewan.

Absolutely appalling. Deny claims for no reason, even when supported by written witnesses and legal declarations and statements from their brokers, with no appeals or recourse. Cheap rates, but you get what you pay for. They are fine as long as they are getting your money, but if you need service, get a lawyer. Worst insurance company on the planet.
