Not a good insurance company

1.3 out of 5 stars
I was rear-ended. 100% the other guy's fault.
Intact customer for about 20 years.
I wanted to use a collision shop that I had used before and I was comfortable with. (And it is my legal right to use the shop of my choice)
Intact refused to deal with them at all.
They used an estimate from their own preferred shop that (apparently) wasn't planning on fixing everything, or fixing it properly.
In the end, Intact paid half of costs and I am out of pocket $4400.
Will never buy Intact insurance again.
For those of you with comprehensive coverage, please be advised of the following position taken by Intact with respect to motor vehicle damage caused by tainted fuel. According to Intact, such damage is not covered because of the exclusion in the policy that says that it will not pay claims "arising from contamination of property carried in the automobile". While this seems ridiculous to me, Intact has so far refused to budge.
You should check with your broker or Intact itself to confirm that this is Intact's position with respect to your particular policy. You should do this now, before something happens. In my case, the repair costs were over $20,000. The service station that sold the diesel refused to indicate whether there were other reports of damage caused by tainted fuel.
It would be very useful to know the position of the other insurers on this issue.
Did you know that on average Ontario drivers with good driving records pay $1,805/year in auto insurance? Is your insurance rate higher? Get a free car insurance quote and start saving today.
Horrible customer service, Horrible claim adjustor, trying to rip you off. Don't want to pay
This is the worst company I have ever been dealing with. Nobody knows what to do with my claim. For two half months I have been running and collecting all the documents they need. Very much doing adjuster job and pay them for that. I might pay for my Rent-A-Car, too if you thinking about buying this insurance company, don't.
Votre application automobile ne fonction pas, J'ai appelé au support technique, monsieur est très mauvais personne. Il ne veut pas faire support technique, il veut refuser le support technique. Très mauvais support.
If you have a good driving record in AB, you should pay around $110/month (women - $105/month and men - $113/month). Do you overpay? Get an Alberta car insurance quote to start saving.
My son was is a bad car accident as the passenger. This claim was in litigation for years. He was in constant pain and ended up committing suicide. I am his mother and this process was painful and unbearable. It dragged on and Intact legal finally offered just over $1,000. This is disgusting. We are forced to pay Insurance our entire lives but do not try to collect. These people are heartless and deceitful. My family and I will never use Intact again.
intact is an outrageous company. It has been well over one month since we filed a claim and after speaking to 11 agents , still no response, let alone a settlement. Absolutely no service! Intact will take your money instantly, but don't expect a payment for month! will be looking for a new insurance company tomorrow. goodbye Johnsons, Belair direct, and Intact!
.. not to recommend. Why? I was paying to much money for insurance and after accident I was losing my nerve, my time, my vehicle, and on the end money.
They will not pay my truck was stolen and almost a year later and not a dollar they are investigating every day a new something they are looking for any reason not to pay then someone tbone me in my other truck they have taken my other truck will not give back to me and they have not payed me a dollar for the second truck
They are scammers they will go to the police and try to have you charged for anything to claim excuse not to pay becarefull this company is very awful this is after being a customer for 22 years.

I just had minor scratch on my from bumper left which happened after contact a cycle rack on a parked car. So i thought i will check with my intact and they said i have to pay $500 from my pocket and the rest, they will take care of...
I dont know how they replaced the front bumper but the bill was more than $2000!!! For what? I was asked to pay $500 which i did but i think its a scam they are running to fool people... I could have replaced the bumper myself for less than $400... but intact made a bill of more than $2000 from which i had to pay $500...this is unacceptable and unethical. I AM LOOKING for other car insurance companies who may not fool me..
