Cooperators Home Insurance Reviews

After 12 years with Cooperators with 0 claims, I got a renewal policy with a 40% increase on my home policy and a 30% increase in my auto policy. Attempts to negotiate reasonable rates with them did not work and of course, other insurance companies did offer more competitive rates.
Called to cancel 1 day late and they are charging me an obscene termination fee of $510 dollars.
After spending 45 minutes on the phone they couldn't provide me with the information of how the cancellation fee is calculated and it is not stated in the policy document either under the cancellation section so very very shady practice to put it in mild words.
I honestly would have expected a bit more sympathy after 12 years with zero claims.
From my perspective, they really don't care about you as a customer and will rip you off at the smallest chance available.
I cannot imagine what would have happened if I had had a claim.
I would stay away from this company.

This company and employees only care about them, I've never had such experience my insurance has been the same since i got my car/license- it was 390 in 2019, came down to 230 per month when i change my place/address it never affected but they call me after 2 years and say your region wasn’t updated but the address is correct! And now it has been increased to 390 again in 2023. Such a bad experience.

Am in the Cheticamp area. Had been with Cooperators insurance for years and paid about $1,400. When I was quoted the renewal this past September they quoted me $4700! To say I was shocked would be an understatement! Firstly, I wasn't living in the home the other years, was here seasonally. I also upgraded my fuses to a breaker, so my quote should have actually gone down! I know of people here who are paying $1,200-1,500 per year and actually have Airbnb running from their homes and yes the insurer knows. I was beyond disgusted. The person who had to call me to give me the news about this high quote was actually embarrassed. In any case, think it was deplorable. Obviously, I am with another company now.

I've been a customer for 20+ years and had both auto and home insurance with them. I called from my home phone to see what they could do for pricing as I have found better elsewhere. I was on the phone for 3+ hours waiting, took a shot and decided to call from my cell phone got an agent 15 minutes later whilst still waiting on my home phone. They were unable or unwilling to give me better pricing. Therefore I kindly cancelled and then told them about my phone debacle so that they would know. The only answer I got was "maybe because your home phone was in our system". Anyway, better options out there for CHEAPER and with RELIABLE service.
