    On June 3rd, I called the co-operators, my insurance company to change the address on my vehicle insurance. Once that was completed, I asked the agent, ****, if I could also get tenant insurance for my new rental condo I just moved into. I was emailed a document to fill out so that they could get information on the building and condo unit. I provided those answers via email within 30 minutes of her original email. I did not receive any correspondence afterwards. 2 weeks later, there was a fire at my condo. I contacted **** the following business day and was told that I needed to have a phone call recording my answers to the document she provided. I was never charged for my tenant insurance nor was I ever told via the original phone call or email that a recorded conversation was required. Recorded calls and emails verify this. I escalated the issue and on July 3rd, received a phone call for more information which I provided. Today, I received a phone call telling me I would not be covered. I was told that because there was no policy in place, I would not get coverage. I was told that even though they admit that the agent "missed" the email response from me, that the onus was on me to follow up with the agent even though I was told that I would be the one receiving a follow up. All I am asking for is to cover the loss of my belongings that were damaged. I would have gladly paid upfront for the policy if I was asked.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic.
