The Personal Insurance Home Insurance Reviews

Recently, first time ever I file a claim with The Personal due to the water damage. As always told/believed, you only find out about insurance when you make a claim and I experienced it when told what is covered and NOT covered. Anyway I went with their assessment. They deal with Paul Davis Systems who carried out the assessment. What a joke -
the guy showed with nothing and had to borrow a step stool and a ladder to look for issue. Also called and provided the feedback to claim adviser which, I am sure, was commented as a standard apology and surely ignored - never will make it to the next level. So far very unhappy!

I have been a customer/policyholder of The Personal for 12 years and made my first home claim due to the Nov 2014 wind storm in the Oakville/Burlington ON area. The claims management experience has been a nightmare! Little assistance to help the policyholder through a stressful process, ridiculous policy on covering damages/expenses incurred because of The Personal and their service providers' incompetence, and to top it all off, a painful process to even get funds forwarded in order to pay service providers for those expenses they DID accept!!! Unbelievably bad customer service skills, adjustment/claims management process and expense reimbursement. I am beginning to believe that the favourable rates (mostly due to a group plan) are just not worth it. Stay away for the claims experience alone - believe me! If I could choose NO STARS I would.
