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.
They sent a renewal letter and the rates mentioned is different from the amount charged on the card. I called why and they did not honor the renewal rate given. Terrible customer service as well.
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.
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 get different information every time I call. Now I'm out $200 because I tried to cancel my policy within the renewal period and they took my money anyway and every time I call, they have no idea what I'm talking about. BEWARE.
They are stalling my auto for the past two months when there is none of my fault my car was stolen from the street and all they are doing is nothing! My adjuster is ignoring and blocking my calls. I don’t think anyone keeps a check on the employee's call records. Moreover, the adjuster never called to provide any information. They promise a rental but they don’t provide it and they will stall and stall and cut their monthly payments...
Stayed 4 years with this insurance provider. I chose it because they gave me the best price but after 4 years without any accident, claim or any ticket it went to a 70% increase and I could not take it anymore and I cancelled even though renewal already in place so I have to pay them 186$ admin fee. But still happy see get out of them. My yearly total cost was 1024 / year (2016,) İncreased 1270 a year later, 1460 another year and now asked 1780! Then it was enough for us and we cancelled.
I sold my car and was charged $186 cancellation fees that I wasn't informed at the start of my policy.
A service representative told me they would call me back never did left me in limbo for three days! I will never do business with them.
Do not get this insurance! In the recent hailstorm that hit Calgary this June 2020, I was if not first one from the first people that started the claim, the rain was still falling, all the neighbors couldn't believe what was going on and I did my claim right away. Well, today July 7th my car is just going to start getting fix, all my neighbors cars are fixed or claims settled. We have the worst adjuster we had ever dealt with. She never called us, we had to do the entire process by ourselves, she is useless, to the full extent of the word!!! We had to follow up with the entire process, she never called weeks pass and we never hear from her. Every time I had to call the tow company, to get a rental, to tow it to the other repair facility, and so for. Having this adjuster and nothing is the same! In July 2nd we called the call-center to ask about what was going to happen to our rental (because the adjuster didn't do her job at all and nothing was getting done! We did all the calls and followed up, thanks to us the car is getting fix, not the useless adjuster) that 10,000 claims were made is not an excuse, other insurers did by far a better job than this 3 people together. Worst customer service ever. SO in the call center, the lady said "Don't worry honey, I have been doing this for 25 years, I will extend your rental 1 more week. Then the next day at about 4 pm someone called and left a message saying that our rental has to turn back, it was Friday 4 pm, after listening to this we tried to call back but all adjusters were gone. So Monday we called and spoke to our adjuster she was a useless sound like a broken record with no listening skills at all. So we asked to talk to the Manager, he listened and understood that they made a mistake but didn't want to take responsibility for it, what kind of manager do that. Zero management skills at all. So we did return the rental today Monday and had to pay for 2 days out of our pockets for a CALL CENTER REPRESENTATIVE MISTAKE and a useless adjuster and a manager that all she knows to say is "yes, they need some coaching" of course they do and in the meantime, it is costing me money and finally a rude, unprofessional, manager with zero skills! I Can't wait to switch insurance. Get a real insurance company, not this joke.
Please, do not use their bad service and expensive! I have been paying 175 for a single Toyota car for 4 years then, this year, they increased it to $200 without getting in any trouble or claimed! Then I called another insurance company and they charge me now $180 / for two cars (the Toyota Venza and a brand new Jeep Wrangler). Less of what I was paying for one! Isn’t that crazy people?
