Open claim

BIG scammers!!!
I got in an accident for the first time, and it’s not even my fault and my case is under investigation for the past 3 months.
Whenever I email my adjuster she keeps apologizing and saying that the case is still ongoing, I don’t even know until when and why it’s going on. They clearly told me to go pay for the storage fee, which doesn’t make any sense because I was not at fault, so I should not have to pay for anything.
I’m really disappointed with this auto insurance company, and I’d advise everyone DO NOT get insurance from this company, you’ll get scammed!!!!

Not Reimbursing me

by Faisal on Jun 11, 2024
1 out of 5 stars

It was my first time getting in an accident and I have been a customer of Desjardins for years, they were supposed to reimburse me for my claim, and they have yet to do so. This investigation has been ongoing for approximately three months now, they are not responding to my inquiries, and they keep apologizing to me. They don’t care to resolve my issue in a timely manner and have been disregarding my concerns.

Sertas is the worst RUN!!!!

I paid to get my car detailed, I have leather heated seats throughout. A few days after I got my car cleaned I went away in vacation and left my car in my dry underground parking garage for a few weeks. I came back to the worst mold infestation I and several other detailing companies have ever seen. Mold was on the steering wheel the side panelling of the door the seatbelts u name it. Obviously this was the fault of the detailer who must have used a compromised rag in my vehicle. I reported it to them, they dismissed my claim and didn’t go after the insurance of the shop instead told me take it to small claims this is why we pay for car insurance in this country for absolutely no reason we are being held hostage. We pay hundreds each month and they get to pick and choose when they help.

I had another claim where I was victim of hit and run and also struck directly by the driver as I was trying to take picture of their plate which I did get as well as make and model. The police were involved collision reporting informed of a site the insurance company could use to get the insurance details of the offending driver they refused to do so and I was left paying the deductible even thought there is a detective assigned to the case b/c of the damage and the assault. This is the help you get, you’re left paying they don’t investigate or seek justice for their customers they just take thousands from u each year and u never have peace of mind with having them as your broker. Run away!!!

If you want to be treated as the victim buy this insurance

I was reared and it was obviously not my fault. They classified me a minor injury claim and I needed more treatment after my treatment plan expired. I was still in pain and they denied me claim. Instead they hired a private investigator follow me and watch my house. They intentionally prolonged my suffering!

The worst customer service.

I had an accident more than a month ago. During the accident happened and entire time that the police had arrived at the scene, I was talking to the insurance agent on the phone, and at her suggestion, I moved my car to a towing parking lot, but after more than a month, the insurance company did not take my car out of the towing parking lot and didn’t transferred it to the repair shop. And every time I call, they just say they're sorry and say they'll be back soon, but they don't do anything else.

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.

Amy is the worst claim adviser ever. She has not returned my calls or my emails! I try to talk to another advisor but they keep telling me to call Amy and she is not even picking up my call for 3 weeks!!!

Sylvia agent

Horrible adjuster. I'm going to be taking my business elsewhere once my insurance lapses. Here totally screwed me on my massages. I had a massage therapist that was super unprofessional. I was approved for all my massages for 28 and I had to change massage therapist so it took me 2 months to find another one. My massage therapist was racist and now I'm told that I have to pay out of pocket for half of my massages and she's only covering $350 when they told me I was allowed to get 28 massages. Desjardins is a joke!

Rip off artists and they lie!

Told us we had to release the car so they can get it the next day. We did that.
Almost 2 weeks later we received an email that says we have to pay 360 for the towing and 60 a day impound.
The representative Jess said the car was going to be moved She listened to *a tape* will honour that... ok great.
Tells us nothing further can be done until the accident report was obtained.
She tried to tell us she can't access it.
We called the opp who informed us she can.
Then under an hour later, she manipulates my son with the brain injury into accepting a pay put that is not even half the replacement value of the car.
The guy on the phone Benjamin tells me the point in insurance is to give you money so you can add to it and buy a replacement vehicle. It'd not intended to pay what it cost to replace the car.
I have dealt with 6 people from claims. None know what they are doing and none care about customers. Not one is truthful either.
Do not go with this company

If you have a good driving record in AB, you should pay around $110/month (women - $105/month and men - $113/month). Do you overpay? Get an Alberta car insurance quote to start saving.

Totally Unorganized

by gigijojo on Jan 27, 2022

After a no-fault accident, things went really well to the point where the body shop manager was surprised how well it was going as they were going to repair my car.
There was quite a delay due to parts not coming in and once repaired they realized that the harness wires had burned through and decided to write the car off.
That's where things started to unravel and it would take a couple of pages to explain what went on after that point.
Our claims advisor was nowhere to be found, nobody in the company knew where she was and why she wasn't getting back to us. When I talked to maybe the 10th person over a week's time, she tried to find out what happened to her claims advisor by contacting the claims advisors manager but could not get a hold of them either.
I found a number with DesJardins that was your last straw phone number that looks into the situation and tries to help you. Had to leave a message there also and no one ever got back to me.
I believe people working from home is a huge part of this problem but this company is so unorganized it's very hard to believe any company can run like this.
I am retired so the time is there to make at least 20 phone calls over a two-week timeframe and still no answers. Imagine somebody that is working full-time and has a busy life, the nightmare would be much worse than what I have now through.
