The claims process is hilarious. I call in the evening when most people have 20–30 mins to waste, thought I submitted my claim, and get told the next person that will call me is an adjuster.
Get called the next day... Not by an adjuster but by someone saying "do you have 20–30 mins of your time to waste to CONFIRM everything that was said last night? It was our AFTER HOURS line so we have to do EVERYTHING AGAIN pretty much"
Oh, but then I say "it's pointless then to use the after hours line if I just have to go through the same thing over again"
"We advise that if you can't call between 9-5 (y'know, when most people work) to use the after hours line!"
"But... You just said I have to waste the same amount of time confirming all the details because it's your after-hours line... So... There's no point in using it"
Absolutely the stupidest thing I have ever experienced with insurance. Why even have an after hours line??? To piss off your customers and waste AN HOUR of their time reporting an accident??? You do realize we have to report to ICBC too, right?? It shouldn't take 1.5 hours to report an accident... Without hold times.
Insanity.
