Horrendous Customer Service

I was hit three times. Wawanesa never investigated the claims and all resulted in fault on me. I realized about that when tried to do a quote with a new company. These were in my records as "accidents caused by me" reason why my insurance is too high.
Also when I wanted to talk to them the wait times in the phone were more than four hours.
I was never involved in an accident and I never hit anybody but my records are terrible because of this Wawanesa.
Do not hire them.
If you are in an accident, they will not help you, they will scam you into signing wrong forms so they don’t have to pay, they will not cover what is prescribed, they will take months to reply, you will never be allowed to speak to a supervisor, you will suffer more than you ever thought possible. Even lawyers can’t access a supervisor after 2 years. They will never have your back. Stay away from them if you care about anyone who rides in your car.
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.
I have recently had a pretty bad experience with this company. I would strongly recommend you think twice before considering them for your insurance needs. Back in 2018, I had an accident, a minor accident in which there was no claim paid. The Wawanesa representative I dealt with was awful to deal with and was not on my side at all and would not reply to my inquiries. This individual was responsible for determining fault, as well as dealing with claims yet she didn't even understand the Alberta Traffic Act. I was shopping around for insurance quotes, upon doing so discovered they had placed an at-fault accident on my file. They did so without consulting me about it. Further, the fact that they didn't pay out the claim in this accident tells me that there wasn't enough fault to do so. My opinion is that this was placed upon my file to prevent my being able to get a better deal on my insurance elsewhere.

I found my own rental car they refused to pay the rates and offed me $22.00 a day for Uber which would not even get me out of my neighbourhood.
