I called today to Nanaimo Branch Aulds Rd to renew our home insurance and spoke to Read. I received amazing customer service and she was very patient and kind over the phone, answered all my questions and made my renewal easy.
Thank you Read and congratulations Western Coast Insurance for having such a wonderful agent on staff.

Was told over the phone that I had to come in and pay $18 for a copy of a previous insurance policy from 2020 car insurance. Easily spent that much in gas going there, only to find out that last year’s policy is stored in a storage facility in Vancouver and it’s not available. Two other insurance companies told me they don’t charge, and they can pull their documents as they have to be kept on file for 7 years. I will no longer be renewing any further insurance through Westland Insurance at Coast Capital on Aulds Rd in Nanaimo.

I would like to thank Jaclyn de Groot for the great service I always receive when I go there to renew my auto insurance. She always takes me through the different options I have. Either ICBC or private insurance. Checks the cost and the best solution. She is a great asset to your organization.
Frequently Asked Questions About Western Coast Insurance Services Ltd. | Home, Car & Business Insurance
Does my ICBC insurance cover someone else driving my car?
Yes, your ICBC insurance will cover someone else driving your car, but ICBC requires that you list all potential drivers, whether secondary or occasional, on your policy. Once listed, these individuals are covered under your policy. There is also some coverage available for unlisted drivers, but it may be subject to a penalty. Be sure to classify a friend or family member as a secondary driver if you know that they will be driving your car during the policy term.

Would a second driver affect my premium?
In British Columbia, 75% of the rate is based on the primary driver’s driving record, with the other 25% based on the secondary driver with the lowest discount. Other secondary drivers can be listed on the policy but do not impact your rate.
