Wow, what great service I received from the staff was amazing. I went in to get a copy of some papers needed for a sale. What I had been told over the phone by ICBC was totally different from the call that Western Coast Insurance was being told. But thanks to the staff to be able to fix the solution to help me by thinking out side the box. I was very stressed and dealing with other very important health issues with my husband, with the addition of Covid. But their calm and positive attitude all worked out well. I left there feeling very blessed to have walked into their Insurance Office. Will we have to stay here in Vancouver for a few more months, I will be going back to get my car insurance renewed. Thank you all at Western Coast Insurance Services Ltd.

Good place to go for insurance and renewal. I've been with Western Coast Ins. for 8 years, but this was the first time Gertrude Michener helped me with my renewal. She saves you time, because she explains things in a simple, straight-forward manner. And she doesn't try to upsell you, which is really important to me. She's delightful for an insurance rep., and it shows in her voice over the phone and her manner in person. In general, I have an extremely positive impression of this office, because of her and her colleagues. I will definitely be calling this office when it comes time for my next renewal. Best.

  • Leila Ashoori

We are delighted to share our experience with Brandon Chan. Brandon has been exceptional in helping us with our vehicle insurance needs today. His expertise and dedication are truly impressive. His communication is top-notch, always promptly addressing any questions or concerns. Thanks to Brandon, we feel secure and well-protected with our insurance policy. We highly recommend WCI services, and he definitely deserves a 5-star rating!

Highest level of customer service I have received in years for low-priced, knowledgeable and friendly Travel Insurance policy and! with ease canceling with full refund due to sudden death in family. I will never use another insurance company again, even though I live on Vancouver Island. Gertrude and Nancy...thanks and you are truly the BEST and no question why my Credit Union recommends you too.

  • Elation Press

After over a decade of using this insurer with no claims we needed to use them for a flooded basement suite in Victoria. After being jerked around for several months, we decided to do the reno ourselves. This Spring they decided to raise our house insurance to $450 a month. Shopped around and now paying just over $100 per month - goodbye and good riddance Western Coast

  • Linda Hunter

Had to quickly renew my auto insurance, on the side of the road, and Brandon from the West Broadway office had me up and running so fast, unbelievable service, made sure I had my documents by email right away, and then emailed me a reminder for when I got home so I wouldn't forget to send him some missing information. Fantastic, thanks Brandon!

  • Angie Goertz

I have always had a pleasant experience with Western Coast insurance agents at the West Broadway location. They are friendly, patient, and very easy to talk to. Most recently, Thomas helped me make a change to my policy and was very understanding when I needed to make an additional change, resulting in updating the documents for a second time.

  • Damon Zhao

Nancy was the most enthusiastic and professional insurance specialist I ever dealt with. Super patient with my request and questions. The reason I went to Western Coast Insurance was distance as it’s literally 2 mins walking from my work place. However apparently the service I received was way exceeded expectations. Recommended!!

I have been a customer of Gertrude M. at Western Coast Insurance Services for a while now. She is absolutely fantastic to deal with. She is always very responsive and professional.

Had a great experience renewing my car insurance with Thomas, who was very courteous and helpful. He also helped make a change over the phone and sent me all the documents through email. Would definitely reach out to them for any further insurance needs and also recommend them.

I had some issues with my paper work as the buyer of my car was not in Vancouver. This lady (Gertrude Michener) first of all was very quick with service and also went out of her way to help me solve the issue. I highly appreciate and recommend their service.

Came in for a typical insurance renewal but was surprised to find out that my previous insurance agent had made some mistakes. Glad I came here because the agent was able to save me money by correcting issues on my insurance I was paying too much for.
