Just awful

by Barney on Apr 28, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

Got this insurance through work for drug, dental coverage etc. Been with them for 4 months, have had to contact them for 4 months. Suppose to process drug claims in 5 business days. I usually wait 15 days, see they have not done anything then contact them. Just ridiculous. I wish I knew who I could contact to have them investigated. They claim on their site they have donated 1 million dollars for COVID 19. How about paying customers back what they are owed.

Diabetic patients are screwed

Switching to Canada life I have to fill out all sorts of crap and jump through hoops galore in order to get approved.
Their staff make you look up DINS on their website (too lazy).
I have a feeling I’ll be disapproved for the new diabetes meds. Best of luck to everyone forced to deal with Canada Life.

2 hours on hold.

Denied two claims with covered DIN's. I can't get an explanation because I've spend nearly 2.5 hours on hold over the last 2 days. I emailed from their website for support and have received nothing but a cookie cutter response stating they are behind on claims. They didn't address my concern as the claims I was referring to were already processed, just incorrectly.

Coverage denied several times

I had podiatrist surgery, by a podiatrist who has been practising for the last 30 years. Canada Life denied my claim saying he does not meet the qualifications. However, they covered my initial assessment. After calling several times and giving them the registration number they still denied it.

Worst customer service

by PB on Dec 12, 2023

This company took over the PSHCP program for Government of Canada employees. It was impossible to speak with an agent for the first two months of transition. They failed to communicate key policy points that meant my significant other will lose name brand drug coverage. Unacceptable.

Disaster since they took over PSHCP

by Norine on Dec 12, 2023
1.5 out of 5 stars

Ever since Canada life became the PSHCP insurer it has been a nightmare to get claims approved. Long processing times, multiple audits, unknowledgeable customer service reps. It's a circus. Missing sunlife with seamless app claim.

The government needs to investigate them and find a better provider.

Sick of waiting on the phone

Every time you phone them you sit on hold for an hour minimum. Then if you’re lucky enough for someone to answer they don’t know anything. They say they will look into it and never do.

Public Service Healthcare Plan

by Kristin C on Nov 28, 2023
1 out of 5 stars

Worst service EVER! Messages (plural) sent through their online portal not even acknowledged, no response. Submitted a claim - Canada Life has advised me that the garment prescribed by my physician for the treatment of a recently diagnosed condition.
Is not considered a valid treatment by them. Apparently, they know more about me & my condition than my physician. Appalling.

Worse insurance company in this country!

by Toni on Oct 31, 2023
1 out of 5 stars

Canada life is definitely the worst insurance company in existence. Their so called customer service is ridiculous. None of the “agents” care. You submit a claim and wait months to be reimbursed. They stall on purpose, they don’t want to pay any claims. Please do yourself a favor and stay away from this horrible company. My ex husband’s insurance company reimburses their claims in 24 hours or less. Canada life is a joke. Months to get your money and even when it’s the “leftover” amount. Unprofessional and brutal! I wish my employer would make the switch !!!!!!
