Canada Life Disability Insurance Reviews

I have a disability claim with Canada Life. The initial Case Manager was extremely disrespectful towards me. What is surprising is she is one of the supervisors! The fact that they would put someone in this position who has such a lack of compassion and no skill set in regards to dealing with people speaks volumes. She was condescending and rude when speaking with me. She lied about the conversations we had and said she told me things she hadn’t. The claim was eventually transferred. I have not been able to reach the new case manager as they don’t answer their phone. I have no idea what is going on. Payments have stopped and I have no idea why. They are refusing to answer questions about the care that I need support with in order to recover. They are absolutely terrible to deal with and making an already stressful situation extremely more stressful!

There's no point in paying for disability insurance through this company. Long or short-term, they will not pay. They will deny your claim and make you jump through hoops to appeal it, all while you're too sick or injured to deal with it. I ended up going through EI Sickness anyways. Why pay into something that won't even be there when you need it? The adjusters are very rude, and just the stress of dealing with mine worsened my condition. Don't buy insurance from these people, you're flushing your money down the drain.

I dealt with one of the rudest customer service agents and ended up hanging up due to harassment. I then complained to the complaint which they then informed her that I had complained. She then called me to confront me and harass me more. I then emailed saying I would not deal with this agent. 2 weeks later her manager called saying that is my case agent and she has to be the one to deal with my claim and then I responded that I would record the conversation this time since they denied recording the first conversation even though there is an automatic message saying the call would be recorded. It's been 2 1/2 months now without a single disability check and are not paying for my therapy sessions. They also transferred me between 3 provinces and multiple people to delay the claim.
