Great-West Life Disability Insurance Reviews

Absolutely horrible experience, agents will avoid returning phone calls or emails and will deliberately obfuscate facts to deny claims based on technicalities. This is at a time when you need the money the most. Absolutely souless, low trust, disgusting company.

I had a group plan via my employer with Great-West Life. I was diagnosed with Diabetes, Hypertension and was advised by the doctor that I was at High-risk to suffer a Stroke. But these scammers did not approve my claim even for one day to be off work and their excuse was, “many people suffer from it and they did not see a reason why I should be off work”. I had to quit my job to take care of my health. But the funny part is, I reluctantly applied for EI Sickness Benefits and was approved by them after showing the same Medical Certificate and Notes that I had provided to GWL. This clearly proves them to be unethical scammers and hope they get treated the same and worse thousand times over!
