Should I use Sonnet Insurance?

Depends. A fit for Canadians who want to quote, buy, and manage home or auto insurance entirely online, especially bundlers chasing the advertised 25%+ savings. Skip it if strong claims support matters most — available public reviews skew negative on claims handling.
