Belairdirect Auto Insurance Reviews

I did the online quote then spoke with an agent. The quote then doubled so I looked at other companies and found a MUCH better policy that offered a lot more for less premium. Immediately requested Belairdirect to cancel the transaction and they took money out of my bank account, despite me placing a stop payment. I have made several attempts to recover this money and as of right now, they have not refunded my money and continue to try to take monthly premiums from my bank account. I have received a response that someone is "looking into" this matter, yet it does not appear they are doing that. I cancelled everything on Apr.20/22 and it is now June 4/22.
A very despicable way of doing business!

Bonjour, j’ai été victime d’une compagnie d’assurance,
Ils ont résilié mon contract sans m’envoyer une lettre de résiliation, ils m’ont laissé conduire mon véhicule sans assurance auto et sans m’informer.
j’ai faite un accident en février, une semaine après, je les ai appelé, et à cet moment la que j’ai réalisé que mon assurance était résilié en janvier, un mois exactement avant l’accident.
Le contract a duré 1 mois et une semaine, du fin novembre 2021 jusqu’au début janvier 2022 d’après eux et il a été résilié a cause de non payement. Est ce que à ce moment là je perds mon droit d’être informé ? Bah non. Mais eux ils avait les kilos de ne pas m’informer Ni par courriels ni par téléphone et ni par poste ( d’après eux la lettre a été retournée par poste Canada. Mais meme si c’est le cas, ils devaient la renvoyer ou bien envoyer la lettre par courriel si ils étaient vraiment correcte).
en gros, le contract a été résilié avant l’accident d’après eux bien sûr et comme par hasard j’avais rien reçu, et après avoir fait l’accident, la tolérance au paiement n’est plus disponible lol et le contract s’arrête exactement un mois avant l’accident. qui a duré en tout un mois et une semaine 😅
Quand je les ai appelé, ils n’ont même pas arrivé à raconter la même histoire. Ils ont même pas été d’accord sur la date d’envoi de la lettre de résiliation. Chaque agent raconte son histoire.
je vais pas tout balancer ici, je laisse le reste pour mon avocat au bon endroit.
Je voudrais surtout prévenir tout le monde de faire très gaffe avec ce types de compagnies 😉
J’aurai aimé donné 0 étoiles. Ou bien -5

Cancelled my policy with no notification... It is 2021 make a system that properly notifies customers via email or SMS to mobile # on file. Mailing out invoices to the wrong address is exactly why this happened. Also, the lack of moral ethics in BelairDirect to cancel any policy with a customer during a global pandemic is absolutely shameful.

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.

I am extremely disappointed that after 20 + years with this company and Zero claims Belair is charging $690 more a year for a Dodge Caravan. Really? A Caravan. Not to mention the cancellation fee they refused to waive when I cancelled my insurance. After all these years and no claims. Very disappointing.

I was a customer for 4 months, called to make a claim and was informed that my insurance was cancelled. Upon further investigation I was able to find out that they sent a registered letter, I had never received such a letter. I contacted Belair Direct to see if they could tell me who signed for the letter but they would not disclose the information and just stated that since they did not receive the registered letter as being returned to the sender that it was received by the correct party. Be warned they will cancel you at any time with no communication and you will may be left without a vehicle and zero compensation.

Canceled after 5 days when we realized the coverage was half of what we had with the other company. They charged 200 cancellation fee didn’t care rude and patronizing representatives we will never deal or recommend this horrible company!

Been with Belairdirect for over 7 years and they want a cancellation fee. Every year my insurance goes up. Never down. I have never been in an accident. I am a professional driver with a Dz license but they don’t even consider that. They should lower the insurance for the people who actually know how to drive and don’t get tickets or claims. I will never use this company again and I will be telling everyone I know not to use this company.

Was a loyal Belair customer for 10 years. When I split up with my spouse I called them to remove him from my insurance policy and a month later they informed me that my upcoming renewal would actually be more money than when we had two cars and 2 drivers. They also informed me that my personal 10-star rating would be dropped to a four-star to "accommodate the change". This made no sense so, I spoke to two different representatives who could not get any logical explanation of what they were talking about and ended up just cancelling going elsewhere and saving over half. I don't recommend this company! They are unethical and they will jack your rates with absolutely no explanation or reason. I also cancelled well within my policy guidelines and they are trying to take a cancellation fee from me.

My family has been with BelairDirect, also under Intact Insurance for many years. I was involved in a hit and run accident in 2018 at 0645 am and filed a collision report and report it to insurance. Because there were no witnesses or dash cams, the company was unable to determine which driver was at fault even if the person who caused the crash failed to stop after an accident. With the license plate number and the description of the car in hand, I was still unable to prove that I was not at fault. The police investigation was poorly done where a call was made to the driver's company (the vehicle was part of a company fleet insurance policy) and the driver had denied the hit, claimed that I had hit him. Intact was only able to offer me a 50/50 claim, my car wasn't worth fixing as it is an older model, it would not have benefitted me to claim anything to fix the vehicle at that point. The rep who handled my claim was unwilling to help me investigate further and come to terms with the other party's insurance policy. Simply told me there is no way around it. The claims representative failed to document the many phone calls exchanged between the times I had called in to inquire, and also left me voicemails to say that I had not been able to be reached within 2 months when I have called to their company during working hours to no response. Then the case was closed because "they were unable to contact me". Fast forward 1 year later, I had switched insurance companies and am with a new policy. The new company was able to offer me a competitive rate since the claim on my file was at 0% fault. I was just notified by my new company that BelairDirect had gone back, a year later and made changes to my claim, making it my fault for what had previously happened. Now the new company needs to increase my rate to +$130 a month because of this. I had called back to Belair to inquire about this new "change" and they claimed nothing was changed. Beware of this company, they are not looking to help you with your claim. The reps are misleading and want you to take the route that will benefit the company. On top of that, after I had sent my vehicle to Assured Collision for a quote on the repair, the rep had gone MIA and pretended that she has not received the report.
