Gore only insures themselves

I just fired Gore Mutual because they seem to think they can withdraw any amount of my bank account as they like! I was quoted $175 a month for my home insurance and every month they take out $225. I have always corresponded with them via emails which they now go unanswered! I now have insurance with another company and now pay $118 a month. This company is untrustworthy! Avoid them as much as you avoid catching a bad virus!
I cancelled my insurance with them. I had the cancellation papers at home. They still took a full year off payment out of my visa account, now a month later still no money back.
I decided before my accident I needed to change from wood to less labour intensive heating. I picked out oil as the most economical and informed Gore from day 1 as I know insurance companies can be sticky. They sent me a list of requirements that I followed exactly SPENDING $3000 MORE than necessary to comply with their unnecessary demands. Finally, it was all done and they promptly threatened to cancel my home insurance... no reason was given. After about 8 weeks I managed to get another insurance company... They turned around and told me it was ME THAT WANTED TO CANCEL NOT THEM, and continued to take payments out of my account. It has been a nightmare nearly had a nervous breakdown over it. I wish I could give minus 10 to Gore.
I had my home broke into while I was away. I was absolutely devastated! The adjuster started out great, but then when it came to paying, they were all over the place. Some contractors I had to pay and some were okay with insurance paying. I gave the adjuster ALL the info required for who to pay and how much and then the cheque’s would show up all wrong. Then they wouldn’t give me any help to replace any of my stuff. I had a full replacement and was told I had three years to replace my stuff but they would only pay full replacement once I submitted receipts. Now I have been told by a new adjuster that I have never talked too that my claim is closed and they have paid me out. They still owe me well over $10,000! Looks like I will have to find a lawyer that I can’t afford. If you have to put in a claim make sure to lawyer up or they will lie to you and essentially steal from you.

They were quick to take my money. Then in the month's following started requesting me to fill out more forms, send more pictures, fill out questionnaires and billed me for more money. From all the paperwork I was filling out, and the answers from the questions I was asking I was learning that Gore was only looking out for there own interests. I eventually cancelled both policies due to the fact that they went against the Tenancy Act in there lack of coverage. I could only imagine if I was to actually have a claim with Gore. Gore, they only insure themselves !
