Cooperators Auto Insurance Reviews

Please let it be known that I was wrongly accused by Cooperators insurance company. They do not work for you. If you have a claim with them be prepared to be in not there favour. A very unworthy insurance company, not recommended

I was involved in an accident back in August 2019. Where there insured openly admitted he was distracted and he had no valid insurance card on him filed an injury claim and was forced to deal with an adjuster with a bad attitude. He wanted medical records from the previous Doctor I had for 30 years, plus my new doctor and from Physio. I didn't authorize him to contact my old Dr. And only authorized information of the accident. My previous medical history has no bearing on this accident. I was offered a minimal amount. It was insulting. Stating to me that this is what the max. Would be for me based on the records they had. This accident has changed the way I drive. I have major anxiety in certain driving situations and I limit my driving to go where I need to then home. The adjuster was not sympathetic, he showed no empathy. Almost like he didn't believe and because anxiety isn't a medical condition in his mind and his managers, I'm not worth more. If the police had been called, their driver would have had two major tickets, distracted driving and driving without a valid insurance card. My car was sent for salvage and had to be towed back to the city from a small town where the accident happened. I have and still am being treated very poorly by this adjuster and this Company. I have never filed an injure before. This adjuster sat in my home and recorded my conversations with him. Where I stated I could still see the truck coming right for my vehicle and if I hadn't honked he would have driven his truck right over the top of me. Even with the honking, he took out my whole driver's side. I wish I would have called the police. I tried to be nice. It is horrible that in this day and age, anxiety etc. caused by this accident isn't considered to be a medical issue.

The service is slow and poor, it is been more than 50 days and I am still waiting for my claim to be released. The adjuster never picks up your call, and will not even give you a call back even if you ask via email or via co-operators customer support. I would suggest to never go for co-operators in your entire life, I was new here in Canada so I got stuck with them. The customer service has no control and they are the only one who is there and listen to your frustration.

I get in an accident, my fault. Very small for an accident maybe $10.000 total and most importantly no one was hurt, also no tickets we went to the collision centre. We both fill out all our information shake hands and leave. I was with another insurance company for 10 years before I always have insurance and I switched to the Co-operators a year ago to join my laws policy(cheaper) I call the Co-operators claims who say my account is frozen and to call my branch and they can unfreeze it. I call my branch and explain she says - "oh let me see why it's frozen", then says - "oh your account was suspended 2 months ago. Your girlfriend started a new account with the new car she bought with a new policy." Which made the old policy expired because she was the primary account name which puts me out of insurance. I give my ex as much as I possibly can for our daughter which car insurance has always been a part of. The Co-operators won't do anything they sent a registered letter which is all they say. No phone call or email. Trust me my ex could got me in touch with them if she wanted.

I was the last car in a 3 chain rear end. The horrible adjuster didn't investigate. I had no claim but they raised my rates 100 percent. They claim there is nothing they can do about no-fault determination rules and they stuff you into a scenario from the 1990 policy that doesn't take into account modern technology, fraud, distracted driving by the first or second drivers that had already collided suddenly with no opportunity for me to react to an unforeseen event. They lie. Stay away.

Such a bad company! Not recommended for anyone, they don’t do their job properly and people fool them and get money. I had an accident and it wasn’t my fault but they are unprofessional enough and so cheap to investigate and do their job.

First off I insure 8 vehicles trailers and motorhome and I have been insured with them for almost 10 years. 37 years accident-free zero at-fault claims. I get into an accident 1 time when it's not, even remotely, anything I could do to stop it from happening. On a highway (only 2 lanes) guy stops on a blind corner in an 80km zone and they deem me 100 percent at fault. No police come, so, no file, no record and now they raise my rates through the roof! The motorhome was 500.00 approximately a year to insure now 7,000.00 a year can you say TOTAL RIPOFF! Insurance companies in Canada should be shut down or the government needs to step in and do something about these crooks! If you have insurance isn't this what it is for!

I had a theft from my bank account. The bank, of course, takes a long time to do anything. I live paycheck to paycheck like most. I had 600 dollars go missing from my bank account and the bank can not answer to it. So, the police and the bank were investigating. I advised cooperators that this had happened and they went ahead and took money when it wasn't there. Including their NSF fee. Of course, with my accounts on hold pending an investigation. I couldn't put money in nor take it out. However, they went ahead and attempted with only 3 days notice. 10 calendar days is required by law in Ontario. That being said they wanted more NFS fees as well as I was paying the NFS fee from the bank. So, now one-month premiums ended up being 3 times the price because they did not care enough to see what their customer was living through and forced more issues that needed to be. I had a claim in December. It took 3 weeks to get a rental car. So far I'm without insurance because of reasons beyond my control. After 7 years of being a client... They don't care about the issues that are beyond your control. They expect you to live just like them or your scum. Horrible people to think their benefit should be at the cost of a child not eating.

If you have a claim, they will cross-examine you by asking questions by a lot of claims representative and finally send you to claims investigator. That person will question you more worst than a police officer. They use the method threatening to their customers in order withdrawing from the claim. And ask for personal data and bank statements. This is my personal experience which I never had from other insurance companies. I have no idea how this company still up.

I had a small accident while I was doing delivery for SkipThe Dishes, I didn’t know that I need to inform that I was doing SkipThe Dishes delivery and I even did it for only a few days. I told these people truly that what actually happened. I told them I didn’t know about this because I am a new driver and it’s a 2 months old brand new Hyundai Sonata. They took a statement from 3-4 times and I asked them if it's not covered, please tell me, I will fix it. They didn’t say anything, they were saying we are doing verification, it’s been 28 days, I didn’t get anything and they didn’t pay for a rental. I paid 1000$ for that, and still, my file is pending. Whenever I ask them if they would send, I need these documents and I send right away and again, they take time to reply, this is the worst service I have ever seen.
