Take these steps to file a serious complaint

  •  

    As an insurance policyholder, you have the right to express your dissatisfaction with our services or with your policy.

    It is important that you follow the steps below in order. Do not move on to the next step unless your issue remains unresolved.

  • Step One: Talk to your broker

    Your licensed insurance broker is the first person you should reach out to with your concern, and they can also answer questions about your Economical policy or claim.

    If you’ve completed this step and your broker is unable to resolve your concerns, proceed to step two.

  • Step Two: Contact us

    If you still have concerns regarding your insurance policy or claim after speaking to your broker, you can contact us directly.

    Our representatives are knowledgeable and experienced. In most cases, they’ll be able to answer your questions, explain decisions made, and work with you to achieve a suitable result. If, however, you’re still unsatisfied with their handling of your complaint, you may request a review of your file by their leadership team.

    When you call, please have the following items ready for reference:

    • Details of your complaint including your policy and/or claim number(s)
    • Any supporting documents and important dates
    • Names of any employees you have already spoken to about your concerns

    Please note that it’s best to talk to your insurance adjuster directly for claims-related inquiries. If you’re having trouble connecting with your adjuster, do not hesitate to reach out to another representative.
