The Personal Insurance Auto Insurance Reviews

I had a simple comprehensive claim. 8 weeks later, and the local repair shop still has not been paid for repairs made to my car. Every time I manage to speak with someone at The Personal, they have a new excuse as to why he hasn't been paid. They have made mistake after mistake and while very apologetic, they just can't get it right. You can leave message after message and no one will call you back, ever. I am pulling all my insurance from them as soon as possible. The rates are good but not worth it. What if I had a more serious claim? I can't sleep at night worrying about this now. Don't ever take insurance out with this company. Their customer service is 0 out of 5 stars and they are extremely incompetent.

Took 1 whole month to process my car accident claim. Had 2 witnesses and they called them twice in that span. Ended with 50/50 fault. Got screwed with car rental as I eventually ended up owing $1k. And the adjuster had the courage to ask why I rented a car, to which I reply "I needed a car for work!!!" They undervalue my car by at least 3k but just happy I was able to get my money for this company. Worst company ever!!! Do yourself a favour, go find another company. I wouldn't come back with this crap company even if they paid $10k+ Or whatever amount. Just plain bs. Just want people to know. Stay away!!!

In september 2015 My car was stollen, Now December 2015 i am still fighting with them for a settlement. I am a very sick person and this insurance company still giving me so much problems. They said the investigation is still going on. 90 days passed and still going on.
I don't think i will ever get the money from them. I hope i will get this in this life time.

had an acccident which involved getting a rent from a rental(covered by policy) company they work with (Discount) 4 days before i was supposed to get my car back i got a call from rental company, they told me that insurance had stopped their payments, so i got charged just over $500 for extra couple of days. it was discovered later that The Personal's claim advisor miscalculated the dates so i ended up getting charged, now they refuse to reimburse me because they think the invoice that i got from rental company is too high, they have their own rates apparently.and now its almost been 4 months since they attempted to contact Discount rental, nobody has replied yet and im still fighting them, worst experience i've ever had.if you ever happen to have any sort of accident that needs to be reported to them you better make sure they do everything right since they're clearly not competent enough to do a bear minimum at least.

I decided to sign up my motorcycle insurance with this company allthough previously I had a bad experience with them for my car insurance where they messed up my drivers license and birth date and charged me one premium and then upon renewal it went up. I thought I'd give them a second chance however this was a MISTAKE!!

Any way getting back to this story I bought my bike in may of 2015 and decided to insure it with the personal being the best rate I could find. after the riding season was done (oct 2015) I sold my bike and wanted to cancel my insurance however they told me there would be no cancellation fee. However when I went to cancel they told me that I have to pay $500. I asked for what they told me its to pay off portion of the premium due to seasonal.

I WILL NEVER BE INSURING WITH THIS COMPANY EVER AGAIN DO NOT INSURE WITH THEM THEY ARE A SCAM.

this insurance company gives you very little for the premium paid. They are the professionals who are to assist you when an accident happens. With my claim this is not happening. They provide you with a piece of paper, charge you some money for it and that is it. Customer service appears to be non-existent.

I recently switched to The Personal for my auto insurance. I unfortunately had my first claim and the experience I had with the insurance company was worse than the actual car accident. My adjustor NEVER called me back, despite numerous calls and voicemails. I would actually leave voicemails BEGGING him just to call me back. Finally, I called and asked for a different adjustor and they pretty much told me no. The person I was speaking to told me that as far as she can tell, my adjustor is doing what he's supposed to be doing because he had written some notes on my file. How am I supposed to know he's doing what he's supposed to when he NEVER calls me back. After making this complaint he still refused to call me back. It took him 4 weeks to tell me my car was a total loss even though he had advised me two days after my accident that I should remove my belongings from the car. It took 5 weeks to receive my cheque. They covered me for a rental for 2 of the 5 weeks in which I didn't have a car. DO NOT go with The Personal. Worst experience ever and I would hate for someone else to go through something like this.

High insurance rates - I save 100+$ a month with TD on a 300$ policy

they charge me for a month of insurance after I cancel. A month of insurance I've already paid another insurer.

Do not give them your banking information, they will take the $$ out before the date they say

All insurance companies are legalized scam artists. But this one is by far the the worst I have ever experienced. If your adjuster is Ann S. don't even bother leaving her a message because she will never get back to you.

Was rear ended at traffic light in my 2012 dodge caravan. Was persuaded to send vehicle to preferred shop from Personal. Three weeks later get car back, AC does not work and large discoloration where evaporator coil is located in rear quarter panel. Returned it to body shop who says they never painted panel and adjuster says AC unit was broken before accident. Claims rep tells me I haven't used AC this year (spring) so it must have been pre-existing problem. I have all my service records from dealer, nothing about broken AC unit. Unbelievable. Now I will file complaint to Insurance Ombudsman of Ontario.
