Terrible claim service and follow up service

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
I had a claim that was based on a lie, spoken by a third party, who claimed that I hit them with my car... The police were called on the scene, the affected party was examined by EMS on the scene and also were taken to the hospital for a detailed checkup, and found out that none of the persons involved in the incident was injured. But the Belair adjuster who was assigned to the claim kept insisting that they were injured. I wish I had an option to upload the police report with this review. Please, stay away from Belair Insurance.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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.
Not only did talk all nice and make it sound like I was saving money using them, they cancelled my policy after just one month after reviewing my past driving history rather than reviewing it at the time of purchase. Instead of refunding my money back to me, they held on to it and kept giving excuses as to how they were going to process the refund. They will take your money, but not refund it in the same matter. They never owned up to the mistakes they made, instead tried to turn around and say I was not being honest with them. Then they tried to ask for more money in order for me to continue having valid insurance. They are complete crooks. They should be put out of service after being sued in a class-action lawsuit. In a pandemic and a time of crisis, they continue to steal money from hard-working consumers...
The worst insurance company. Horrible customer service, they spelled my name wrong on the pink slip. Requested another pink slip with a correct name. Never got it. Overcharged by $19 for not apparently not downloading the app. But I hate it downloaded, so I called and asked why this is happening they said that I needed to redownload it. So I did and registered all my information AGAIN and was still overcharged the next two months AGAIN by $19. Go with anyone else...
Worst customer service ever! If you ever have to file a claim, you’d have to quit your job just to make sure anything is done right. It took for almost 3 months for my claim to be resolved. And in the end, I was paid a fraction of my car’s value. I would give them a 0 star if I can.

Spent over two months without contact after my claim was submitted, even after multiple phone calls attempting to see what was happening with my claim. Found out after the 2-month mark and 5 phone calls they had not even contacted the tow yard with my car, nor done anything with the policy. The car rental company contacted me saying they were behind in their payments and would have to charge me until they paid, which I had to call again to find out they had been ignoring their emails as well. After finally settling my claim, when trying to set up a new policy for a new car not 3 days after the finalization of that issue, they refuse to honour their own accident forgiveness policy (my first ever claim of any kind) and tell me I now have a gap in insurance because they did not properly explain the cancellation process...
