Shady agents and/or underwriters who deny car insurance to potential customers based on document discrepancies inputted by another top tier insurance company, then discretely accuse them of falsifying documents due to inconsistency. But when asked by the customer if they could contact their previous broker to have the discrepancies rectified, they proceed to deny insurance anyways and place the blame of the customer. So much for The Personal having trust in a Veteran who is currently serving their 17th year in the CAF.
The Personal Insurance pushes the mobile app to 'reduce' your monthly rates. They don't tell you that it's punitive. I am over 50, perfect driving record with daily commute of 4 km. I get a notification email that changes were made to my policy. Yep, my insurance went up $56 for no reason. No tickets to justify, I could have been a passenger in another car. I tried to contest it, and they did not want to hear it. I cancelled my 24 yr relationship with this company and at no point did they try to keep my business.
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.
Horrible company and horrible customer services representative, I do not recommend insuring with this company at all, stay away from this company.
Giving information to the customer and getting consent for the mechanical work or medical injury work is unheard of for this company. They just do want they want to you and your car without your knowledge!
Very disappointed with this dictatorship, Third World country treatment.
Sons car was stolen and they haven't even answered to talk about his claim in over 2 weeks. Do not use them.
I was hit from behind on the highway while stopped, my truck is probably totaled, but I have not had any response as to what my compensation will be. The other driver that hit me took full responsibility. It has been over 100 days with no resolution in sight. The first advisor was a complete waste of oxygen, would not answer the phone or reply to emails. After 5 weeks of her stupidity with no results, I got assigned another advisor who seemed to be more responsive at first, but he too is now earning the one-star rating, giving a date for resolution and when that date comes giving another date 2 weeks out. I will be pulling all of my vehicles from The Personal once this claim is settled, assuming it is during my lifetime.
Don't deal with The Personal Insurance unless you want to get harassed and threatened by the claims advisors. Had an accident back in February 2023 and ultimately, the insurance company deemed it has driver fault whom hit my vehicle in a roundabout. It took almost five months to get my vehicle repaired and then the harassing phone calls came at home and as well as on my cell phone. At one point the claims advisor threatened me to have me in handcuffs, charged for failing to pay "The Personal Insurance Company for an extra $400", criminal charges against me in front to the repair shop, cancel my drivers licence and repossess my vehicle until I pay the extra deductible until was paid in full amount. Glad that I cancelled my insurance with The Personal and don't deal with them anymore.
I had very bad experience with The Personal. I was on emergency medical trip and they requested some documents which I was not able to respond to in limited timeframe. They terminated my insurance and they just did it through letter which I received upon my arrival back to Toronto. They somehow assured me that new application would work and I provided all documents on the same day. The underwriting team cancelled citing the purchase is more than 60 days which didn’t and failed to provide insurance and kept me waiting this long. Pathetic company, it’s my first car and had bad experience with them
Car was hit by lightning and this company was a nightmare; in fact, worst company to ever had the unfortunate experience of dealing with. Sent adjustor out, in middle of claim was suddenly assigned another adjustor who wouldn't come out, had to chase down this company, finally could take car in, then at time to pay, the Personal said I probably did the damage myself (on my new car?!) - auto repair manager said he'd never dealt with any insurance company this bad.
We only claimed $385 for an ambulance and then when we are about to transfer to another company we discovered in the claim description that we've claimed $3,001! That's how greedy they are! Then when I spoke to the claim agent, he yelled at me on the telephone, what horrible customer service! You need to stay away from this insurance company at all costs!
