Belairdirect Auto Insurance Reviews

In the beginning, they seemed nice. Then, I had a non-responsible accident about 4 months ago and it took about 2 months for them to figure it out. I had to call about 20 times at least, they did not do what they were telling me... And then, they increased the price of insurance for my new car at about twice the price that I would get with other insurances. I told them I wouldn't continue the contract (ending a Month later) and they renewed it at an even higher price anyways. I called 3 Days later and they say they will charge me 240 $ do resign my Contract. I'm furious!

If you deal with Belairdirect for insurance then I would look for another insurance company. I contacted them the week following the death of my mother-in-law to notify them of her passing. They said they could only do something if they were speaking to the executor of her will. I told them she didn't have a will. I also sent them a copy of her death certificate showing she died on Nov 24th. They proceeded to take out 2 payments (car and apartment contents) for insurance from her account on Dec 10th - even though at that point they had proof that she died. They still are saying they can't cancel her insurance without a will and my only other option is to put a stop payment on the 2 automatic withdrawals for the insurance to show as unpaid and therefore cancelled. This will cost money to stop each of these Jan payments so now it could cost well over $100 to get Belair to stop 2 insurance policies on someone who died over a month ago. I think this is horrific for a company to do something like this. It's hard enough what the family is going through never mind these money hungry companies taking advantage of the situation. She was the only name on the policy so even if anything had happened we couldn't make a claim because she is no longer with us. I don't understand how a death certificate is not enough to cancel insurance - EVERYTHING else we had to cancel or stop was done either with or without the death certificate and yet and the insurance company won't do it. I will NEVER use Belairdirect and I'm hoping this will make a lot of people stop and think about switching to another insurance company if they unfortunately have insurance with them now.

By far the worst insurance ever! They just ignore my calls and emails and my adjuster is just hiding not sure how lazy she is! I’ll expose more information if this company will make me more bad with their bad customer service.

This was the worst experience I’ve ever had with a company. They do not value customer at all and their customer satisfaction guarantee is just for show. My adjuster never returned any of my calls. The customer service representatives were rude and condescending. They give you the run around about everything. I paid out of pocket for the car rental even though it was covered under my policy and they are refusing to refund me back! I wish I never switched insurance companies!

For the second year running they auto renew my policy at an unfavourable rate without informing me except by a single email received three months beforehand. I never asked to be contacted by email. This leaves you with two choices: pay up or pay a huge cancellation fee. They should not be operating. The insurance itself is OK just the way they operate is ...as everyone else points out...sleazy. Just quit them.

Car burnt down. Honourable customer service agent will not get back to me and everyone who takes my calls says I have to talk to my agent over a month and no callback. I have lost so much

Worst claim experience when I wasn’t at fault. The car got stolen, body shop did their estimate. They took 3 weeks to decide if it was a write-off or not. First off, the value of the car was less than it would cost to fix. Really pushy with the body shop to get it done. I kept checking if it was ready. When it’s finally done, I didn’t get the notice when it was done. I had called and Belairdirect told me it was done last night, you have to get it by the end of the day. I was the one calling, not Belairdirect and to be rude, like, really? I have to wait a year, I am most likely going to search around for another company. Not happy with the customer service at all.

Your friend at first, then watch them JACK THE PRICES UP. I have this year an 8% increase to my home insurance. LAST YEAR, they just... changed my policy because THEY wanted to... lower my flood coverage because they thought my coverage of 10K was too high, so lowered it to 3K ALL WITHOUT MY CONSENT, and didn't give a discount for that. Also just now they wrote me a letter saying THEY think my car deductible should be $1000, not $500. "The winter tire discount has been removed from the above-listed vehicle as it no longer qualifies" ... what? I just spent $1900 on tires and wheels why doesn't it qualify? AND you raised my insurance. P.S.: NO CLAIMS for the home or auto, not 1 in 17 years, and perfect driving record, not even a speeding ticket. Again, they'll be all cozy the first round then annually ding these things to their advantage.

After 15 years with the same insurance company, Belair sends me out an application form, says I did not fill it out properly with all the information they have on file (to determine my coverage/deductible/rates) and terminates my vehicle insurance. No, they did not phone me when they received my application to discuss anything, they just sent a termination letter! This has to go on record as the worst customer experience department service ever.
