2 hours on hold.

They simply wont pick up the phone, I called 3 times, waited over an hour each time.
As bad as it gets.
They say it's working but it doesn't. I've called in a couple of times just to ask what the status if only to be told to wait. Sometimes it takes forever to get to an agent which is understandable. But for me the main issue is, if the coordination of benefits works then I wouldn't need to call.
Every time you phone them you sit on hold for an hour minimum. Then if you’re lucky enough for someone to answer they don’t know anything. They say they will look into it and never do.
I have had nothing but long waits to get through to a rep. 1 1/12 hours with a disconnect just to update important information. Calling from 2 phones at 1 time to see if I'll receive quicker service. Told one thing by 1 rep, transferred to another, as they don't have the knowledge to do this exchange of information. With another 1/2 hour wait. Told there is 6 month prescription availability, but the pharmacist claims its wrong! They are training new staff I'm told. It's unfair to the clients and the staff if this is their training. It's not good enough.
We are planning on going to Florida for 6 months and tried to get approval for 6 months supply of medication, 23 days later and 6 phone calls and a promise that a supervisor would rush my request I am still waiting for approval, before they approved on the spot, seems like they just want people to get so frustrated that they pay for there own prescriptions, get rid of them, worst customer service I have ever experienced
What a nightmare trying to get through to these people. I have now been on hold for 2 hours!!! At least I haven't been cut off which has happened a number of times. Totally unacceptable. The recording keeps saying you can get information on their website. What a joke. Can never find anything of use on their website. Why did they switch from Sun Life. Never had any problems and customer service was a breeze. STILL ON HOLD!!!
since the switch from Sunlife to Canada life it has been a complete nightmare. From getting my dependents information incorrect to hours spent on the phone and no one responding back to email. It has to be one of the worst customer services. Also taking 6 weeks to process an online claim is unacceptable and then to process it incorrect and try to find the means to get an amendment. Over all very disappointing
As previously stated by others, this company has absolutely no costumer service. Their automated service will constantly tell you all service representatives are busy and hang up on you. No one answers the online chat.
Their service standards say a claim should be processed within 2-14 days. I have 3 claims outstanding and almost a month old. All the proper documentation has been provided and received by Canada Life. Previous insurer had no issues with the same claims and paid out within a week.
Unless you are forced to be with this incompetent company… give your money to someone who will pick up a phone and want your business.
Have been trying for weeks to get a hold of someone. Never get a person on the phone, cut off from multiple chats without ever being connected to anyone, email has gone unanswered. This needs to be fixed!!
Never had these issues when we were with other insurance. When will someone help us and get this situation remedied.
Absolutely NO customer service.

Denied two claims with covered DIN's. I can't get an explanation because I've spend nearly 2.5 hours on hold over the last 2 days. I emailed from their website for support and have received nothing but a cookie cutter response stating they are behind on claims. They didn't address my concern as the claims I was referring to were already processed, just incorrectly.
