VERDICT

Should I use Pcinsurance?

PC Insurance | Auto & Home insurance - pcinsurance.ca

Depends. Worth a quote if you're a Canadian PC Optimum member bundling home and auto and value points as a discount. Skip it if a proven claims-service track record matters — only 19 Trustpilot reviews exist and forum users routinely comparison-shop it against RBC and brokers.

Confidence

Medium. Based on 20+ public sources; review volume is small (19 Trustpilot reviews) and many Reddit/forum snippets were truncated.

Best for

  • PC Optimum points collectors
  • Canadian homeowners and drivers bundling policies
  • Shoppers already in the PC Financial ecosystem
  • Price-sensitive re-shoppers at renewal

Not for

  • Non-Canadians — consumer home/auto lines for the Canadian market only
  • Businesses needing commercial P&C coverage — this is consumer insurance
  • Buyers demanding a long claims track record before committing
  • Set-and-forget buyers who won't re-quote each renewal

Gotchas - check before you buy

high

Re-quote at every renewal — price-increase complaints span over a decade on RedFlagDeals

medium

'Up to 35%' is a marketing ceiling; actual savings depend entirely on your quote

medium

Points offset rather than replace premiums; value depends on PC Optimum redemption

medium

19 Trustpilot reviews make claims-service quality nearly impossible to verify
