policy change

by Tra on Jul 9, 2015
1 out of 5 stars

I had been with Greypower for six years and at 2015 renewal time recieved a letter stating my policy was now with Belair Direct. My renewal premium was lower by $300 so I was happy. One month later my daughter kindly bought me a new car. When I contacted Belair to make the change I was treated like a criminal. They wanted another $200 for an accident that was not my fault and happened 9 years ago! . After 2 hrs on the phone, a conference call with my former insurance company for confirmation that the accident was not my fault and fault was not attached to my driving record and checking with BC insurance (the at fault driver's insurance), they finally agreed not to charge me for that accident. We finalized my policy application, which was approved, I paid the full premium by credit card and confirmed that I would receive a letter detailing the credit for the first policy on my old car. I asked him "are we finished now, is everything good?" The reply was yes. The very next day, the same agent called me saying he had forgotten to include the premium for another accident in which I was parked at a gas station putting air in my tires when another driver backed into me. His insurance covered all repairs, but again I was being penalized for something that was not my fault!! For this they want another $63! Unreal!! I too am looking for a new insurance company! No way would I ever recommend Belair Direct!!!

Double charged

Belairdirect has double charged my bank account for the last 3 months and when I call they’re telling me I have missed a payment. That’s weird because I've paid them over $700 in the last 2 months.
Last month I called because a call representative Ariel was trying to tell me I owed $600 which didn’t sound right. I called a week later since she was not a nice lady and was told $600 was to cancel my contract and $400 was what I owed. So she tried to get me to buy out my contract and said it would pay my bill and Belair is a thieve!

Terrible

by Unhappycustomer on Aug 3, 2021
1 out of 5 stars

I have been with this company for several years and within that several years, I’ve had several problems.
Somehow they don’t save my credit card information so I would receive letters saying that my insurance was going to be cancelled. Recently I called them with my banking information to take the payments directly. The first time I called they told me I wasn’t able to do it that day because their computers weren’t working, the second time, all set up all good, then a month later I noticed the payment never came out so I call again. This time the person on the phone tells me yes everything is fine the payment will come out, surprise surprise I got a letter this month saying no payments insurance is going to be cancelled. I can’t say enough negative things about this company and I would not recommend them to anybody. Rates are also very high

Terrible

After being with this company since 2015, I have nothing positive to say.
Two instances of them not billing me correctly. Two instances of them trying to cancel my insurance as a result without emailing or calling me. Not to mention terrible amounts I pay as someone who has never had an accident, ticket, anything, somehow I was paying 30$ more per month than my boyfriend who is with another company who has had an accident and several tickets.
I would not recommend this company to anyone.
Customer service very unwilling to help. Terrible experience

Ininformed representatives.

They always put you on hold to find out answers.
Fail to inform you about 'claims free' issues till after you make a claim.
The increase - they told me it would be way less than what they ended up charging me!
Shopped around and they were 45% more than others would charge!

Poor customer service so I am changing insurers!

Canceled and still took money

They took one more payment out after i cancelled it a month later, and won't give me my money back. I moved out of the province and went with another company.

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.

Fraud

by RLochan on Sep 5, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

They are stalling my auto for the past two months when there is none of my fault my car was stolen from the street and all they are doing is nothing! My adjuster is ignoring and blocking my calls. I don’t think anyone keeps a check on the employee's call records. Moreover, the adjuster never called to provide any information. They promise a rental but they don’t provide it and they will stall and stall and cut their monthly payments...

Coronavirus

by belairsuck on Mar 23, 2020

They can't even help me during the coronavirus. I asked to get my monthly payment delayed (example: I had 3 payments left on my policy and I wanted to add another month in the end) because I'm not sure of what money I will get obviously. They are useless and careless! I will definitely go to some other company when my insurance is done, useless people. Not happy at all!

scammers

by 5 hour customer. on Mar 7, 2020

Avoid at all costs if at all possible. I have been with them for 5 hours and they've already increased my agreed-upon rate by 1000$! You can cancel if you'd like for a fee of course. SCAM! DO NOT ASSOCIATE WITH THIS COMPANY!

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.

Worst experience.

by Josh on Mar 5, 2020

I’ve dealt with multiple insurance companies, Belairdirect is by far the worst. They will happily take your money but will do everything possible to get out of paying money or simply doing their job. I had an accident in November, got injured and my car was totalled. It’s now March, haven’t gotten a penny. And now they are trying to push off the injury payment to the insurance company I signed up for a month after the accident occurred. The whole time, I am still being told to pay insurance (for a car that isn’t on the road anymore) so that my account stays open in hopes of eventually getting coverage for the damage done to my car. If looking for insurance, Belairdirect is cheap, but don’t follow through with anything committed.
