Ontario Insurance Rates set to rise up to 10%
- Thread starter ABC
- Start date
A jump in rates will suck, but won't be the end of the world for me.
Rates in AB suppose to be 15 to 20 %. Government scrapped the cap on rates so insurance companies are taking advantage....
$1050 per year. $500 deductible, comprehensive, $2, million liability, replacement cost. Could be better but my radar detector failed me three times last year....
That really sucks

Realized increases were on the horizon (Nov 2019) ...
I was able to secure a late 2019 rate for 2020 by taking care of it in 2019 ...
not really sure how the industry actually works as it seems significant
insurance rate increases are invoiced as the New Year Ball drops in NYC.
I believe it is a matter of AB catching up with other Provinces ...
but now I see the other Provinces are still going to realize a double-digit 2020 hike too.
So paying for the year ahead, I changed my renewal date to January a few years ago with my insurance
renewal invoice being sent out late November with current rates and not upcoming year rates
(so I was lead to believe) ... perhaps to merely delay the inevitable.

Poll - 2020 may welcome some Alberta Auto Insurance Policy Holders with significant increases !
Hello. I am not in the Insurance Industry. I am in the process of an Annual Renewal of one of my Auto Policies for January 2020 and just spent an hour with my Provider to go through all my options as news is spreading that some Alberta Auto Insurance Policy Holders can be in for significant...

You can negotiate with your insurance company costs are not carved in stone...a few years ago I did some comparison shopping with everything the same included the home and both vehicles....went to my then and current insurance guy with the other quote and said match it and he matched the other offer. From what he told me these prices are done via a computer program at the main office and yes you see the jump in your premium but they do have the ability to adjust to meet industry pricing kind of like when you walk into Home D, Cdn Tire, or Lowes and say hey this guy is offering this can you match it... and they do if it the same... and you save 10% for the match for them to keep your business.

Man! well here in B.C I pay more than twice your amount for similar coverage.
I just got my policy in the mail today and for my Harley it doubled from last year. WTF? I don't think I put 3,000 K's on it last year. No tickets and no claims ever. Never had an accident in 45 years that was my fault. Robbers. Guess we have to pay for all the idiots on the roads that don't know how to drive these days.
My C7 Z51 with a $15,000 add on for the mods, costs me $1200/yr., no tickets. 1M liability, 500 comp, 1000 collision deductible, basic accident benefits. I spent 23 years as a litigation analyst, specializing in high value litigation claims. The system created a monster that needs to be fed. Lawyers, medical, insurers, and customers all fighting to get or keep money. The government is the architect that tries to keep peace but it doesn't always work in the customers" favour, especially with lobby groups paying (donating) to support their cause. Who has the most money, the insurers.
