Desjardins Insurance Home Insurance Reviews

Had a home fire in April 2018. We are now in Sept 2018. Desjardins asked for 2 quotes, they got them. They asked for the content list, they got that too. They will only allow $55.00 a day for my husband, myself and our pet for an additional living cost. We cannot live in our home. That's a joke by itself. We pay for this coverage, but they sure do take the monthly payment every month. They have been giving us the runaround from day one. They say they are going to pay, but they will only pay what their "preferred contractor" says the job will cost. Their better known preferred contractor are known as FRIENDLY CONTRACTORS, they measure your home room by room, go back to the office and put all measurements in a computer software and voila - there is their lowball quote and remember, not everything is included in the lowball quote. Why? Because they work very closely with Desjardins Insurance and what they don't put on the quote so we can't see is the actual cost of replacement. It's a SCAM to make people hire the preferred contractor, then the contractor adds all the repairs that were not shown on the quote and the Insurance happily pays the FRIENDLY Contractor. Yet they will not pay your preferred contractor who knows everything there is to know about repairing your home, a computer can't repair your home. DO NOT believe a word these people tell you its all a lie. They don't want to pay. Stay clear of Desjardins Insurance, they are your worst nightmare

I recently had my high end washer/dryer stolen. 6 months to come to the conclusion that I did not take a picture of the damaged door for entry. Claim was rejected. Christine handled this and was a true joke to deal with. As said, she took 6 months. Each time I tried to contact her, she was on vacation. Just a low grade company and individual to work with......
