Worst Customer Service Ever!

1 out of 5 stars

My fiancee was insured with Sun Life through her employer and we had a great package (medic, dental, life). When she lost her job, a Sun Life agent contacted her to offer us to continue with the same package but for a higher price which we found worth it. I gave them my credit cart information to activate the coverage.

When we received all our insurance details by mail almost one month after, we realized that we were not getting the same deal, not AT ALL. There is no way we would ever pay what we were paying for that kind of coverage.

We tried to call Sun Life many times and could only leave a voice message, no agents available. They would not even return our calls! We kept trying week after week after week, on a lucky day we would get to an agent who promised that someone more qualified would call us back. Never happened.

In the meanwhile they kept taking payments on my credit card. We also tried by email and kept receiving automatic responses saying they would get back to us in two days... which of course never happened. The last email we received was saying that our cancellation was under review and that it would be processed within 10 open days. 15 open days later, no answer yet and they took another payment on my card.

This is a real joke, I have never seen such a bad customer service. This is close to robbery. If you can get Sun Life coverage with your employer, fine. But never, NEVER deal with them as a private consumer.

You've been warned.

Worst customer service ever on the phone, they try to push you off the phone with their rude tone of voice, simply because they cannot help. Different answers from different reps and its all a terrible experience. Additionally the chat live agent takes forever to answer, and does nothing to resolve the issue. TERRIBLE

Fortunately I haven't had to put a claim on my life insurance but they also do the medical insurance and do it well.

The online assistance centre can be a bit confusing, but the costs for group insurance seem amongst the best in the province.

I have not been overly happpy with my agent and feel that he has not always provided concise information or has communicated when the rates have increased.
