Belairdirect Auto Insurance Reviews

Belair insurance is terrible. I have been a loyal customer for 10+ years. My vehicle just got wrecked three and a half weeks ago by someone blowing a stop sign. They have been rude, uncaring, and unhelpful throughout this whole process. My adjuster did not even call me after the accident, they did not want to give me a rental and left me stranded for a ride a week and a half before I had to call them and fight to get one. They then sent me a lowball offer on my vehicle and tried to get me out of that rental within two days. My adjuster then did not tell me there was a delay in my settlement dispute for a week which led to me having to call them and demand to speak to my adjuster and a manager. I had previously sent all the receipts of the work done to the vehicle to them like they asked which equaled out to four thousand dollars. The adjuster called me and was super unhelpful as they have been unprofessional and unresponsive the whole time. The manager was great and really seemed eager to help get the claim moving to offer fair solutions like giving me back the rental they demanded back after offering me the settlement offer. They then sent me another lowball offer trying to shortchange me three thousand dollars only offering a thousand more for the four thousand dollars worth of work I had just put into the vehicle. The manager tried to call me during the day but I missed the call because I was in a dead zone and they expect you to just be okay with spending hours on the phone at work while your boss is wondering what you are doing. I called later that day asking to speak to the manager again and got told they would call me again in twenty-four hours further disrupting my work because they clearly do not care. I am supposed to get a call from the manager tomorrow and hope to get a fair resolution but I am not banking on it with how I have been treated this whole time. Definitely will be switching insurance companies as they have made me feel like a criminal.

1.7 stars out of 5 stars the same as hundreds of others. Even 1 star is too much. I made a claim on July 29 for a not-at-fault accident. After the initial report, I heard nothing from my adjuster. He said he would call back on August 2, but didn't. I emailed him on Aug 9, and he called me for the first time on Aug 10, 12 days after the collision. He made me a lowball offer on my car, which I refused. I called Belair Direct on Aug 17, 19 days after the accident. The customer service hung up on me. How dare I expect Belair to pay a claim after paying them for 10 years? Evidently, all those payments were for a piece of paper that gave the illusion that I was insured when really, I have no coverage. If you think you are insured by Belair, do yourself a favor and call a lawyer. You will need it dealing with these thieves. 70 days have passed since my NOT AT FAULT ACCIDENT, and to date, the only thing this company has given me is $45 for the ambulance. I have sent the adjuster 24 emails but nothing happens. The adjuster does not answer my calls or emails. Unbelievably bad service.
Their final offer for my car was about $3,000 short of what I thought it should be. The adjuster told me to get an independent appraisal done which I did. That showed the value of my car to be $3,000 to $5,000 more than their offer. They raised their offer by $1,000. They said they don't count independent appraisals because the appraiser always favors the client. They seem to have an answer to everything except the question of when will I get a settlement for my car. Being with Belair Direct feels like I've been caught in a scam!

I had a not-at-fault collision on July 29 involving my car and utility trailer. Despite assurances from the claims reporting office that the claim would be settled within a week, I found that Belairdirect is in no hurry to settle a claim. 70 days post-collision, I had received only $45 for ambulance reimbursement. 77 days post-collision, I receive $3100 for my trailer which cost me $5500 for an identical one. What kind of appraisal is this? After 77 days, the storage yard is making more money from storage than I'll get for my trailer. As for my car, they offered me about $5000 less than I thought it was worth. The adjuster told me to get an independent appraisal, which I did. The appraisal showed the value of my car to be $5000 more than Bellair's original offer. After 77 days, their best and final offer is still $2,000 lower than the lowest range of the independent appraisal. I have entered into their progressive complaint procedure, which has done nothing. The only thing this company does efficiently is collect its premiums. Belair is great at making you feel good until you make a claim, only then you'll realize that you are screwed.
