Stay away from RSA

Michael on 2019-03-12 22:56:30

My car was totaled. Those things always suck but RSA made it far, far worse. It literally took days to reach a claims person. Even then it often took days or weeks just to hear back. I had to go to the broker multiple times for intervention. That barely worked. They then assigned a new claim person as apparently the original was overwhelmed by his caseload. The new guy was just as bad. It’s been a month and a half and I still haven’t had this resolved. My rental that was included in my plan expired so I’m out a car with no ability to replace the one I lost until the promised cheque arrives. Stay. Far. Away. From. RSA.
