Refusing to repair car

by John on Oct 5, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

My vehicle got into an accident a month ago, they are still not approving my vehicle to be repaired to its full state. Horrible customer service and management, trying to find excuses not to repair the vehicle. They try their best to cheap out on the parts on the vehicle. The highest quote for an insurance company that doesn't care about your safety. All they want is to make money of you when you get in an accident good luck getting your car repaired as they give you a hard time...

Poor customer service

by Star on Sep 21, 2020

Desjardins have poor customer service. They don't train employees properly. For instance, they will give you a quote charging $130, and then they will charge $160 without even informing the user. Then charge money from another person's account without even informing. I think the customer service agent doesn't even understand English. I got a quote for $175 and now they started charging $300 without giving any notice. I just wish they would have spent a little to provide service to the customer instead of just thinking about profit.

Rip Off

I've had Desjardins in the past and ended up switching to another company because they were just way too expensive. I got State Farm originally, but they ended up getting bought out by Desjardins which was Certas and was forced to be stuck with them again. Honestly, they are the way to expensive. All I kept getting was increases and higher rates and a bunch of non-at-fault incidents that were documented on my record and is creating so many unnecessary discrepancies. After 2 years I've finally switched companies saving 46$ a month. It was the best decision!

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.

Useless

The person in charge of our claim has been ignored our calls and emails for almost a week, is currently denying our professional assessment and has been lowballing us from the start by searching 4 cylinder cars instead of what ours is (6 with low mileage) over an accident we didn't even cause and had dashcam footage to prove it. We'll be taking it to the news if it doesn't improve.

Worst company imaginable

by Jake Stopher on Sep 1, 2020
1.5 out of 5 stars

Desjardins is absolutely awful. They decided to increase my premium by $100 a month just for a change of address, and when I had a claims experience last year they were very unhelpful, unwilling to provide any kind of support which was shocking, especially considering I wasn’t at fault, and every time I asked when I’d receive the money they hung up on me. Had to go through an ombudsman to get them to pay me the money they owed me. Complete scam of a company.

Took to long

I'm still waiting for an adjuster comes to look at my vehicle after it was turned and no one gets back to me! It is been 2 weeks now. I'm left with no vehicle as it is not drivable. The worst customer service I've ever experienced!

Not happy with car insurance reviews for your insurance company? Get a quote across up to 20 Canadian car insurers and make sure that you do not pay too much.

poor quality

by george w on Aug 10, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

Probably the worst insurance experience ever. Agent claiming they applied to the government and got approval for a 10% increase in premium but the website says prices are going down because of COVID. A claim with these people would be a nightmare. Moving all insurance to a more reliable source.

Cancelled it, still charged me

by RH on Jul 25, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

I had my policy on an annual payment plan and had sent my cancellation 4 weeks before the end of my policy. They automatically attempted to renew it still and are attempting to charge me despite me already cancelling my policy and they are not sending me any notice of renewal to top it all off.

WORST Customer Service

by AllisonQuc on Jul 15, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

This company needs to hire better representatives because the one that I got to talk to was extremely rude. The company should check on what kind of behaviour their employee has and improves their hiring requirements. UNACCEPTABLE!!!

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.

Awful costumer service

by BW on Jul 6, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

After 15 years with them, paying in full every year with no claims, they raised my rates by 20% since Certas have taken over. There used to be a family feel in the office, where you felt at home so you felt you could trust them, be aware now as you are only a number to them now, money is all they are concerned about.
