Insurance claim

by Dane Viloria on Nov 23, 2023
1 out of 5 stars

My father is fighting for his life thru Shingles and insurance can't even answer the phone. Just claiming for an insurance you're paying is literally begging . Service and reliability are so bad.

Useless customer service

Waited for 1 hour and 25 min and was connected to an idiot rep who couldn't provide any answer and she tried to connect me with another department and dropped the call.

They should change their name to Canada death, as I don't see how can it be any life in it

Peachy, just peachy.

overall, all interactions are very poor at best.

I gave up on calling in because the service is equal to dealing with a child who likes to disagree. Tried contacting them through the website Contact Us.
1) An inquiry was put in six weeks ago, then four weeks ago and finally three weeks ago for the same reason. Still haven't heard back.
2) A claim was put in over three weeks ago for a substantial amount and it is still pending with no explanations or reasons. I must be made of money.
3) A different inquiry was put in recently for a different item to see if we have coverage. Still nothing.

It seems as though they are very understaffed or the staff, they do have, are incompetent. It could very well be both. Regardless of the reasons, I would never choose them over our previous provider. I would have given them all zero stars but that was not an option. I'll call a duct cleaning company to see if they offer a better service.

Planning to get life insurance to protect your family, including children? Make sure that you get enough coverage. According to studies, it takes about $250,000 in total to raise a child to the age of 18 (and that doesn’t include any post-secondary education costs).

JUST DON'T

This is the absolute worst insurance company I have ever had to deal with. I've spent hours and hours on hold (when I can even get them to put my call in the que.) I asked what they would cover and they only said what they wouldn't cover. They sent an email saying they want more information and to check my account. I check my account and they want me to call. I'm wasting my life on hold with this of a unprepared, unprofessional, uncooperative, uninformed, useless company. If you have a choice, just say NO. I want to give 0 stars!!!

Wait Time... Waste Time

Terrible wait times to get connected to an agent. No call back option when you can receive a call once an available agent is ready. I waited 2 hours... TWO hours to get connected. For a big company, this is absolutely unacceptable. Phone call and claims take forever to process. I would not recommend this insurance company at all. Come on, Canada Life! Customers don't have enough time in the day, stop wasting ours!!!

Did you know there is a 35% chance of developing a critical illness before you are 65 and 65%-70% chance before you turn 81? That means getting a critical illness insurance quote is no less important than getting life insurance. Your choice.

Can't get through to help line

Trying to obtain approval to get 5 months of prescriptions for our winter trip to Florida. We have called 3 days averaging 4 hrs each call before we got an answer. Finally the we were told it would take one week to send us approval. It's been a week and a half so we have been calling for two days again with no response! We plan to pay upfront and hope they can process the claim before our credit card is due.

Does anyone work there?

Took over an hour and 20 mins before I was even able to connect with someone. Has been like this for the past few months. You would think they would hire more staff to help with these ridiculous wait times.

Did you know that one in three Canadians, on average, will be disabled for more than three months before they turn 65? Get a disability insurance quote today to make sure your income is secure, even when you are temporary disabled.

It has been one month and I can't get through, or talk to anyone or get my claims processed. They denied my claim saying it was before the date of insurance. I can't file a claim because they say I have to file with my secondary insurance first. I don't have a secondary insurance. Omg 😱
