I can’t say enough good things about Square One. From the moment I signed up, their team was incredibly helpful, guiding me through the process with clear explanations and no pressure. The coverage options are flexible and affordable, perfectly tailored to my needs. Their customer service is top-notch, always friendly, and ready to answer any questions. I feel confident knowing I’m protected by a company that truly cares about its customers. I highly recommend Square One to anyone looking for reliable car insurance!
I've had a great experience with my insurance agent, Rebecca. The process was smooth from the very beginning — clear communication, quick responses, and genuinely helpful support. She made it easy to understand my coverage and always took the time to answer my questions without rushing. Reliable, trustworthy, and client-focused — I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for solid car insurance and great advice!
By far the best insurance provider I have dealt with. I am so glad to have found Square One and to be a client. Today, I dealt with Himalee Jayasooriya by telephone and she was so knowledgeable, pleasant, and helpful. This meant a lot to me being a senior, and she easily and quickly expedited all my car insurance needs. No nonsense, just great service and a great product.
I completed the comprehensive online application for only home insurance as I do not drive. It took a while covering pretty much everything I could think of. The given price of the premium was almost unbelievable. So much so, that I felt I needed to follow up with a phone call. I spoke with a rep that was very knowledgeable, and helped me along with reasonable suggestions and provided recommendations, ensuring the apples to apples coverage. I was extremely pleased with the price of the premium that was a staggering $748 less than my current insurance provider! Thanks so much Square One!
I recently purchased condo insurance from Square One online, and the experience was fantastic. The process was straightforward, user-friendly, and incredibly efficient. The ability to customize my coverage and get everything done quickly without hassle was a big plus. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a smooth and transparent insurance buying experience!
This was the smoothest online buying experience I have ever had. Before Square One came to my attention, I suffered through a number of long-winded and frustrating review processes with other brand name insurers, only to be informed at the end of the process that they do not provide short-term renters insurance! Square One not only provides very cost-effective coverage, but the process was exceptionally painless. Highly recommended!
These guys are terrific! The entire online experience of purchasing was the easiest ever, and they blow the 'big guys' out of the water! The customer reps are exceptionally friendly, kind, and patient... I can't even begin to tell you. I also dealt with Rachel LaHay... she was outstanding and deserves a raise, recognition, and promotion. Not to mention, Square One is the cheapest quote I saw anywhere in Toronto. Thanks guys!
This entire process was the most painless I've experienced while getting auto insurance. The two folks I spoke with, Eran and Stephanie were delightful and absolutely helpful. 10/10 would do it again.
I was hesitant at first but once I got to the end, I realized that I could play around with deductibles and add or take away things I don’t need right now. I felt much better and my quote went down a couple hundred a year. I also really liked the fact that I didn’t have to talk to anyone or wait for a phone call. Once I was happy with my quote and ready to “sign on the dotted line” I clicked the button, paid the fee, and I’m done! Thanks for making it so easy!! :)
Eran Azan was the most helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. He provided clear, thorough answers to all of my questions and concerns. Very assuring of all of the features of Square One, and is even going over the top - investigating a unique situation I have. I did not feel rushed or that any of my questions were not worthy. Eran made the whole experience feel incredibly empowering. Square One certainly is a competitor in the market of house insurance and I feel very confident with this coverage. Thank you so much, Eran, for such a pleasant call.
