Desjardins Insurance Home Insurance Reviews

Called to get a quote and they couldn't complete it via 1 call. Said they would call back and didn't. Sat on hold again to be told same thing. Gave up, went to a better company

I'm going to exclude the hours of wait times and their horrible phone services. The long-short of it is that Desjardins charged my credit card without giving me a proper warning. When I called them up to get these charges dropped, I asked them why didn't they email me prior to charging me. They told me while they didn't email, they sent out a letter. A letter which I never received. I asked them to cancel the service and requested that they drop the penalty for cancellation because I never received any letter and they failed to send me an email. They said they would get back to me. A week later they call me up to say they're going to continue with the penalty because - surprise, surprise - NOW they say an email was sent out. I checked my inboxes (all emails I receive are shared through multiple accounts), I checked my SPAM inbox, and there is no proof they sent anything out. In that week they decided to change the information in my file to say they did send out an email just so they could charge me. There's no proof an email was sent out, and they changed their story to me. Just so they could fine me. I presented this argument to the person calling, and she was adamant. She could not provide proof anything was sent out, and refused to even acknowledge that it was strange that only a week ago they admitted they hadn't sent out an email. Because they control the information, they could basically put any lie into their files to support their decisions. They are liars. They are thieves.
