One of the worst Insurance companies I dealt with

At the time of getting insurance their agents tell you to use application and get 10% off your premium but they never tell you that if you forgot to open app while driving that discount will be taken of forever and the agent over the phone got so much attitude from no where like if you can not help your customers then at least don’t try to say that we can not change the policy but you can change insurance,
Remember guys they never tell you that they will taken off 10% for the rest of the year if you miss opening application while driving and i told them that i drive company van everyday and with covid going on i don't go out much on weekends and even with that like who remember to turn the freaking app while driving and this small reason is good enough for this scammers to take your 10% off right away.
Total crappy reason for this scammers
When it was Canadian Direct, you received fair discounts for safe driving, no accidents, loyalty, etc. The cost of insurance was much cheaper and better coverage. Since it has changed to Belair, the rates have gone up and the discounts are much less. Even with the "discounts", it is $300 more than the same coverage as another company. The agent told me that I could get up to a 25% discount if I agreed to use their app that monitors my driving. I have to get their app and keep my cell phone on while driving. There is enough intrusion in modern-day life without my activity being monitored through my phone. That was the final straw for me. I have over 40 years of safe driving, if that doesn't qualify for a discount I don't know what would. Ending my contract with Belair.

Driving in Canada for almost 17 yrs and never met with an accident or had a ticket in all these years. Bel direct asked me to download their App to monitor my driving and close to completion period their mobile app suddenly does not work.
I re-installed and call their technical services but still did not get restored.
For renewal, as expected, they blamed me for not using the app for 3 months and increased my insurance by $33.
