Westland Insurance Home Insurance Reviews

I had a joint tenant policy with my Mother. She passed away, and they refused to cancel the policy and make a refund.

I've called to cancel my insurance from an apartment in 2019-2020 several times and the company will not cancel payments. They have charged me over 1000$ over the years and there is nothing I can do with the service. It's quite ridiculous, I'm now looking into canceling my debit that I've had for over 15 years due to this consistent charge that they will not cancel.

Disappointing...

We had a flood in our home and contacted our insurance company Westland Insurance. They told us we were not insured and they couldn't do anything. You would think any decent person might ask "is your family safe"?
I switched from TD to BMO and the pre-authorized monthly payments didn't go through. They said they tried to call my old Vancouver phone number and send an email to my email my old email address.
My wife is the second person insured on our policy and has been a Westland Insurance customer for 11 years. They informed me that they have her phone number but did not need to contact her. A friend who previously worked for Westland Insurance informed us that they should have contacted our mortgage lender once the payments didn't go through.
They chose not to contact our mortgage lender and did the bare minimum to make sure that we were insured.
After we were denied our claim they refused to insure us again.

Paid the bill over 2 weeks ago, still, have the bill collector keep calling and harassing for the payment. Very rude person! Asked her why she kept calling? She said the head office never informed about the payment.

Had house insurance with them for a number of years. Thought it was a little expensive, but it was close and convenient. This year renewal cost doubled. Over $2,000 more than competitors. Gave them the chance to review the costs and after a “thorough review of my insurance needs”, they dropped the cost to be in line with everyone else. Three months after the policy was paid in full, they demanded an additional $2,600, more than their original quote. After dealing with the agent, as the manager is uninterested in even talking to me, they adjusted the demand to $1,400 and sent me a letter stating my policy I paid for 3 months earlier was cancelled and I had an outstanding amount owing to renew the current policy. I have heard from many people in Langley who no longer do business with Westland that this is how they operate. Give you a quote, take your money and then 3 or 4 months later send you a bill for double what you were quoted. Do not do business with such untrustworthy and devious people.

EXPENSIVE! Shop around before committing. We went with a different insurance company this year and we are now paying more than half of what they quoted us.
