Belairdirect Auto Insurance Reviews

Belairdirect lied to me about what is going on with my claim so the team member didn't have to deal with their customer. Belair made me feel suicidal due to their treatment of me. Made me wait to release the funds to fix my car while my adjuster had a nice vacation. The rental car didn't have snow tires like my car has. So I was trapped in my house for almost 4 months while they mishandled my claim. During my 2 years with them, they made me prove my address twice or they would cancel my policy. Then they claim they never received my info even when I paid to fax the documents. If you get Mike, Kajal or Marilyn, ask for someone else to handle your case. Calling the manager is a waste of time because they and the adjusters don't return phone calls. Also, managers switched halfway through my case because it dragged on so long. Try emailing!!!!

I bought travel insurance which include facility to get replacement transportation for damaged car. That was as told to me is valid for any car. I did not buy insurance from my rental car assuming I am protected. When my car was robbed in San Jose and window was broken they simply refused to provide any service to me and I also have home isurance that protects me from damage to property they didn’t advice me to claim for my stolen items. Their agents are trained to avoid any liability for companies even if customer deserves it and paid for it. They are threatening me to report to credit bureau since I stoped their payment upon dissatisfactiry customer service no one called or followed up except for payments. Please avoid this company.

I was involved in a collision in which, as it turned out, I was not at fault for the collision in which I was involved. However, the claims department did an extremely poor job at investigating the claim (if that can be called an investigation at all) and they ended up assigning to me the wrong fault determination rule, making me 100%. I spoke with my adjuster, other frontline agents and even supervisors and all seem to be one worst than the other, one more contemptuous than the other. In the end, I had to take the court route to get some justice and that yielded the expected results. The company seems to be dysfunctional from the beginning to the end, it's not just an issue of one rogue employee; it's systemic.

All computer driven, cold, impersonal and just another money grubbing large corporation. The different depts seem oblivious of the goings on of the other. The auto claims adjuster tried to low ball their claim payment by at least 50% however I was ready. That's not acting in the customer's interest, but the interests of BelAir. Sorry, but I have nothing good to say about BelAirDirect nor can I recommend them. Their premiums are nothing special either.

Not Impressed. Belairdirect goes out of their way to market themselves toward students and those who are on tight budgets via promotions like their student discount however their service reflects nothing of the sort. I was in an accident that was not my fault and after being treated like a criminal by the ASSURED Mississauga representative my insurance company sent me to the Belairdirect test and repair centre for a more “polished” experience, they said. It was awesome that when I got to the centre the staff was great at kissing my ass and pretending like they cared about my negative experience. It is unfortunate that none of those niceties could fix my car. Instead, it sat at their office for more than three weeks before they decided to touch it, suddenly; miraculously, the car would not turn on. My trusty insurance company then proceeded to call me to let me know that they were not responsible for my car not starting and wanted to charge me upwards of $1,000 worth of “non-accident related damage.” When I responded with questions – the brain dead staff resembled something of a broken record player repeating, “you are responsible to cover this damage as it is not accident related, your total is…” (pretty cold for a company that markets towards people with low income). When I explained that this was not a possibility for me at that time, they agreed to tow my car home. I find it hilarious that I drove my car there to be fixed and now it is being towed back in WORSE condition than when it started. Cherry on top: They took the rental back and had misplaced my car. I had to walk to work at 5 am for over a week without a vehicle while making car payments for a car I couldn’t even fix or use because the insurance company continued to make broken promises of when they would be contacting me to bring my car home. My car was finally returned to me over a week left with parts they damaged sitting on and staining my passenger side seat. What is the point of paying for insurance if they lose and break the very thing you are trying to insure. biggest scam i have ever been involved in in my entire life. If the goal was for me to walk away without a shred of faith in humanity, the company did their job of not caring! Silver lining: thank you to Belairdirect for making me realize I can make it through life without my car and it is worth every second I save not dealing with their garbage.

Claim opened July 2016. They still have not fixed my car and its June 2017. I was rear-ended at a stop light causing my head rest air bags to deploy.

They have treated me as if it's my fault someone rear ended me when I was stopped. I've been patiently and calmly waiting for them to resolve this but a year is too long to wait!!!

I pay my policy on time and my policy covers this type of claim.
This is so stressful.

Worst company I've ever dealt with.

They take my money monthly, are keeping my claim open but won't fix my car.
I was rear-ended at a light, air bags deployed , impact caused damage to the back of my car and the person admitted hitting me. Case closed! Not sure why it takes a year to figure that out!! Especially with police reports.

I can't switch insurance companies while a claim is open either!

So, this is the first time I had insurance on my own. They offered a great rate on my first car, but after it was written off, things went sour very quickly. First of all, it took them a month to sort out my accident claim, which I was not at fault. They only reason the claim was resolved was because I had to do all of the leg work personally. I did 100% of their job just to get my claim taken care of.
Now that I'm up for renewal, I decided to look into other companies, since belairdirect wasn't giving a good rate on my newer, safer vehicle. I was offered a way better rate with way more coverage somewhere else. When I asked Belairdirect if they could lower my rate for loyalty, they told me no. So, long story short, they have very bad customer service, they don't do their jobs, and they're really not there for you. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere.

I got into a car accident and I gained a considerable amount of weight because of it (lack of mobility and emotional eating). I then developed diabetes because of it. I asked to be seen by a dietitian but they did not approve it. They said that it is not reasonable or necessary. I did not know that my overall health was not important enough. Worst insurance company.
