Zero Customer Support

There appears to be many glitches in Canada Life. It is very hard to reach someone. There was problems processing my physical therapy sessions. I am presently 600 in the hole. I may have to discontinue physiotherapy because I cannot pay our of pocket. This is very discouraging.
Id rate a zero is possible. This company is the insurance provider for the public service health care plan effective July 1 2023.
I have tried to call them over 100 times, they do not answer. I have tried their online chat, they don't answer or respond, even after waiting hours. I have sent messages via online form inquiry, they do not respond.
Since switched to CanadaLife, i was not able neither to submit a claim no to reach a customer service. It’s more than just frustrating, it’s insulting.
This company who have apparently had only one phone does not answer it. After contacting the Ombudsman and their feigned concern I was given a time that they would phone me. Of course, they didn't.
Could not even get their positive enrollment site to work ever! ?Tried 50 times over the clock.
Can the PSC please cancel this mistake?
If I can give a 0 or finger to Canada Life (used to be Great-West Life), I would love to do so.
Each time I call Canada Life, it takes more than 1 hour as an average wait time for the past 6 months. When I talked to the agent Stephanie (Dec 1, 2021) who kept telling me I just have to follow the steps so she can hang up. I have trouble submitting my Orthodontic claim online and would like her help but all she could do is tell me to follow the instructions and steps. In the end, I demanded to talk to her supervisor. She said she can't find one at that moment but someone will call me back within 24-48 hours, then 24 hours have passed (Dec 03, 2021) and I have not received any call from Canada Life. I called on Dec 2, 2021, another 1-hour wait to talk with an agent. This agent is better but while we were talking for less than 10 mins, either she hung up on me or had a technical problem, the call was dead. I even have not got a chance to know her name. After these 2 call incidents, I finally decided to write a review regarding the poorest service at Canada Life. An hour has passed and I am still (Dec 03, 2021) waiting to talk with the agent :(

Have been trying for weeks to get a hold of someone. Never get a person on the phone, cut off from multiple chats without ever being connected to anyone, email has gone unanswered. This needs to be fixed!!
Never had these issues when we were with other insurance. When will someone help us and get this situation remedied.
Absolutely NO customer service.
