I called to add a vehicle to my present insurance company. It seems they don't want to deal with customers except through the internet. Tough to do if you don't have access to the internet.
After a long wait, I spoke to an agent who did not speak clearly and who did not really seem to know very much about adding a vehicle to my present insurance.
After 48 minutes I lost contact. I am going to be looking for another insurer...
It used to be a pleasure to deal with Belair's call centre. Staff were knowledgeable and gave good service. In the last two years however, it has deteriorated terribly. Staff have little insurance knowledge, or interest in service, and just want to fill in blanks.
Filing a complaint is no good either because that just results in rude harassing telephone calls from the complaints department.
I have found a local broker who provides good personal service and the rates are actually cheaper.
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.
Their contact centre people are terrible! Every time you called them they don't know anything. They keep telling you we will call back and nobody calls you back. 4 times I called them they keep transferring here and there and when I asked to speak to their supervisor they said they are not available. I mean are you guys crazy if you don't know anything I asked to escalate then they don't have a manager available... What the hell you guys are getting paid for. The worst experience with call centre representatives. The last time I spoke to a lady Julie who in return started shouting I was asking her something else she does not understand English she was replying something else.
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!
I was not impressed with this company at all, every time I would ask them something they would have an excuse and not give a straight answer. Also, they are money grabbers! I got an accident last year with one vehicle and female driver just under 25 and for no reason at all my premium went up to 400 dollars which is insane I have had other companies offer way lower, even with the COVID discount they didn’t offer it to me I had to ask and still waiting didn’t get even though told them I’m not working. Not a company I would recommend at all.
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 was with Belair for almost 3 years and I never had an accident and I never made a claim and they raised my premium based on cars being stolen in the GTA.
I got rear ended and they sent me to their auto repair shop and told me my deductible was $0 when it was time for me to pickup my car the auto shop is saying I have to pay $1000 to get the car and they cannot release the car until BelairDirect send them an email saying my deductible is $0.
For Injury claim was the same issue they gave me hell and the process was long and repetitive. And i was using my personal health insurance. Belair is not a good company and they are disloyal to their customers they only want your money. When it’s time for them to do the job you’ve been paying them for it’s a big issue.
With a combined effort which might recall the entire allied contribution to the winning of the Second Great War, The body shop which was suggested by Belairdirect was able to complete the quote in two weeks less a day.
The part time casual staff of Belairdirect were optimistic that the claims department would approve the repair within one week.
The website has been down for days
You will need a loaner car if you choose belairdirect
I remain optimistic that the car will be repaired within 2 months.
BelAirDirect quoted and confirmed (2 agents) between the quote and the actual insurance $1153/year. Now, less than a month later, after a 30-minute conversation they say “the first two made a mistake" as to why my insurance premium is $40 extra per month than agreed upon. “Nothing” they can do about it. I genuinely can't believe it, and there's supposedly nothing I can do about it.
The worst company I have ever dealt with. Never get insurance here! They tried taking a double payment, when my policy started on a new billing cycle they still took money from my account for the previous month that I did not have insurance for. Try calling and speaking to an agent to change my payment date, and they advised it would be a double payment as it is a month-to-month contract. Call back to cancel as I found better insurance for over 1200.00 cheaper per year, and now it’s a year's contract, even though I spent over 45 minutes the day before with the agent telling me several times it’s a month by month contract. Was advised that I would have to pay 175.00 to cancel, advised I wouldn’t pay that they put me on hold to speak to their manager who refused to waive the fee when I asked to speak with him about his decision I was told oh he doesn’t talk to the consumer. This company is not worried about the consumer, just about the money. Such a lack in customer service and empathy. Advised them to listen to the taped conversation before he decided not to waive the cancellation fee, and was advised that’s not his job? So now have to wait up to 48 hrs to speak to someone else to get the fee waived, which we know will be denied! Worst company when it comes to service and the consumer, they only care about money!!!!
I get different information every time I call. Now I'm out $200 because I tried to cancel my policy within the renewal period and they took my money anyway and every time I call, they have no idea what I'm talking about. BEWARE.
