BCAA is my home insurance policy company. Last year's insurance for my home policy is over $6000, (a huge increase from the year before). This year, it is over $10,000, a huge increase, so the insurance increase is doubled over the past 2 years. They usually send letters to renew insurance, this year, never gotten the letters!!! Not too long ago, I gotten a non-payment on my policy for the $10,000 renew! For such a huge amount, and not being notified, I decided not to renewal. Now BCAA say that if you cancel now, there is over $500 penalty. They say I agree to automatic renewal terms! My complain is that for such a huge amount, no calls, no letters, no further notification, just deduct directly from Bank shouldn't even be legal! My family has being with BCAA since early 1980s! Recently auto renews, (as I have other rental units with insurance from BCAA), I have not receive renew notice either! There is no confirmation, just auto deduct.I like to BCAA to remove my "cancellation fee", as I never agree to renewal in the first place!Second they really should put in a policy where rate increases to certain percentage, there should be an automatic contact with the policy holder for confirmation!

I requested cancellation of my BCAA subscription. I do not require ongoing rewards, I have been a member since 2019. Outside the auto renewal date ***** period by only few days (45 day ***** ******** It seems unreasonable, as I have not used any of the services or towing in the last year. Incredibly poor customer experience and loyalty.Business Response

Hi ********,
I have reviewed your file and can confirm that this matter has now been taken care of. While your request to cancel was received just outside the 45-day ***** period for auto-renewals, we understand that these situations can be frustrating.
Although our policy outlines a specific ***** ******* we strive to approach each situation with fairness and flexibility. Im pleased to see that we were able to resolve this issue for you, and I hope this outcome demonstrates our commitment to member satisfaction.

This complaint is for the forced, unsolicited, unauthorized auto-renewal of BCAA membership.The BCAA support bot / technicians claim that a renewal notice was sent by post, as I had disabled marketing emails. I never got this notice. I think renewal notice does not qualify as marketing email, and that they should have explicitly confirmed consent before the auto-renewal went *********** they claim that the membership cannot be cancelled mid-year and I owe the full year's membership amount.I want them to refund the entire amount that they have charged me till now back to my bank account.Business Response

Hi Amit,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
Our memberships are purchased on an annual basis, and as part of our process, we send out a renewal reminder 30 days in advance of the membership's expiration. This reminder states that the membership will automatically renew unless we are contacted for any changes or cancellations.
We understand that sometimes circumstances change, and we do allow for backdated cancellations within 45 days after the renewal date, provided that no emergency roadside service has been requested

I am rejecting this response because: If your consumers don't get the reminder, you are putting them in un-approved financial burden, like in my case.The only resolution is for you to refund full amount you've charged me till now for this year. And change the auto-renewal policy for everyone to consent / opt-in only.

Hi Amit,
Thank you for your message. Our memberships are sold on an annual basis, which ensures continued peace of mind by maintaining uninterrupted coverage for our members. Renewal reminder notices are mailed in advance, and we rely on our members to review the mail we send to stay informed about upcoming charges or changes.
We also allow a 45-day window after the renewal date during which members can request a backdated cancellation, as long as no roadside assistance has been used. This grace ****** gives our members time to review their bank or credit card statements and reach out with any unexpected charges, questions or concerns. Since we did not hear from you until six months into the current membership term, we are unfortunately unable to issue a retroactive cancellation or refund. However, we can confirm that your membership has been cancelled effective the end of this current term.Kind Regards,

On Feb.3.2025, I had an accident where my vehicle ended up in a ditch. I called BCAA, who sent a service provider for a tow/recovery. The service provider upon arrival, stated they will not be conducting any recovery operations while there is snow on the road, and will not be attempting a recovery today. They stated they will continue to evaluate conditions in the following days.I have a current premier membership with BCAA, which includes a two-day car replacement policy, subject to terms the vehicle must not be usable, and the rental car must be arranged through BCAA.I called BCAA today (Feb.3.2025) and spoke with ****** to initiate a two-day car replacement, a benefit of my premier membership with BCAA. The agent stated they are unable to provide a two-day car replacement as my vehicle cannot be assessed as "disabled" since the vehicle has yet to be towed. However, BCAA's service provider has refused to attempt to tow/recover the vehicle. The agent stated they can have a supervisor call me back in 72 hours if I am unsatisfied, and cannot assist me further.BCAA has failed to provide the two-day car replacement per the membership agreement, stating they cannot provide a two-day car replacement until my car has been recovered, which BCAA's own service provider has refused to do until the roads are clear which could take days. BCAA has failed to provide any other means of attempting to resolve the issue in a timely fashion, and is leaving me with no option but to make my own arrangements, out of pocket, despite BCAA's obligation to their member. I have been a BCAA member since 2021.Business Response

Hi ******,
Thank you for reaching out and it was a pleasure speaking with you this morning.
As discussed, I have adjusted your BCAA membership to the Go membership and back dated to the effective date of your membership term. The refund has been applied to your monthly payments for the Go membership so there will be no further payments coming out of your account this year. The remaining refund will be applied to your renewal of your Go membership.

I am wishing to cancel a rental property insurance policy as it is no longer needed. I was given the option to transfer the policy to another property, which is of no use to me, or to pay a fee. I asked what the fee would be and I was told that they couldn't tell me until I cancelled my policy. So I would have to agree to cancel the policy and then pay whatever the "undisclosed fee" is. There is no transparency there and they could literlly charge me whatever fee they like as the are refusing to disclose it.Business Response

The rear brake pads installed on my 2013 ***** 3 hatchback at BCAAs ******** Auto Service Centre on January 23, 2023 were warrantied by BCAA on July 24, 2023. July 31, 2024, my car was making progressively louder knocking sounds to the point that it no longer felt safe to drive. July 31, 2024, I phoned BCAAs ******** Auto Service Centre to schedule warranty service and was told the wait time for warranty service would be approximately a month. Because the car felt no longer safe to drive, I sought immediate repair from an alternative certified mechanic, **************** Repair in ********. The mechanic's inspection notes: Confirmed on test drive that there is a knocking/clicking noise originating from the rear that happens when going over bumps. When parking brake is lightly applied while going over bumps, the noise goes away. Inspected suspension components and removed rear wheels to inspect brake pads and found that rear brake pads do not fit snug inside caliper bracket and are moving freely, causing the noise. Caliper bracket does not appear to be worn out, recommend replacing rear brake pads with better fitting ones. The cost for pad replacement (parts and labour) at Progressive Auto Repair was $540.52. I complained about this through BCAA's website and was contacted via voicemail by BCAA's **************** Regional Manager. I returned his call but never received a follow-up call or email. I issued a second complaint via the BCAA website and received no response. I would like BCAA to pay the equivalent of my Progressive Auto Repair bill ($540.52), refund my original BCAA Auto Service bill ($673.12), or preferably both.Business Response

Hi!
so sorry for clarification
1. I had a private membership. I made a complaint because the service wasnt working properly and I was overcharged and this happened repeatedly (which I can prove). Because I complained they terminated my account. They also where really inappropriate in several interaction including a leadership member calling me 5xs in the course of 10 minutes while I was working which I explained as high Im with a client in crisis, I cant speak writer now, and what youre doing is harassing.
2. They also cancelled my business membership with ************************. As a social worker I require this service to take clients to appointments. I bill direct from my business account to the ****************. Its remains a private / personal account but its at a discount because its a VCH personal/business account.
all I want at this time is both my accounts reinstated. I would greatly appreciate your support with this?
kindly,

Thats 5 calls incoming, from which the final call I respond and I state, Im at work, with a client in crisis and this is harassment.
2. To which you responded by terminated my account by email, preventing me from accessing my account and my billing. It doesnt itemize my billing in the record provided. Further you charged me for the amount for the wrongful charge that as stated in the document you had agreed to remove.3. I was on the phone with an *** representative at the car that was said to still be running and active in my name, and then later in a separate call from another representative it was said the car was shut down but the door was left a jar. This is categorically incorrect. I was on the phone with an Evo representative checking the doors, and the status of the car, which was parked, locked, off, and ready for use from another customer.
Im quite worried that a false narrative has been circulating. Im asking for honestly and transparency and Im asking for my account to be reopened.

I am rejecting this response because:

2. These recordings are interpretations, not recordings, nor are they transcriptions. There is no factual evidence that any disrespect has occurred. There's no medical evidence of behavoural concerns.
3. Unfortunately, when I politely defended myself, Evo became accessibly punitive: suspending my membership for 7 days, shutting my car off once so that I was trapped inside it in the middle of the road (in danger/ at risk), and trying to make me pay for charges I didn't accrue.
4. *** has charged me unlawfully for charges they already agreed to revoke because they agreed that their services (the pilot Bluetooth services had been malfunctioning).

On September 3, 2024, I was using Evo Car Share when I was stopped by the police for speeding. The vehicle was impounded for 7 days, even though I do not own the vehicle, and this was my first driving offense. *** is now charging me a Loss of Use fee of $104.99 per day for 7 days, plus additional towing and storage fees, amounting to a total of $1,********* a ********** student relying on student loans and savings, I do not have the means to pay this amount. I emailed Evo on October 1, 2024, to explain my financial hardship and ask for a reduction in fees. *** responded by offering a 12-month payment plan, but this does not alleviate the financial burden as I cannot afford even those monthly payments. I emailed them again today, October 8, 2024, to further request a reduction or waiver of the fees, but they have not offered any additional relief.I raised concerns about the fairness of charging me for the vehicles impoundment, as I do not own the car, and I am disputing the ticket in court. I believe Evo is taking advantage of my vulnerable financial situation, and these fees are excessive and unethical.

I am rejecting this response because:I have already been in communication with Evo multiple times, and their approach has been passive-aggressive and unhelpful. *** has continually placed the financial burden on me, a ********** student, while threatening to take money directly from my credit card. This behavior feels like an attempt to assert dominance by exploiting power dynamics, rather than offering a fair and compassionate resolution.
BCAA, as a large corporation with significant influence in BC, and as the owner of ***, has the means to address this issue properly. They should be held accountable for their practices and should be able to waive these fees on compassionate grounds.

Hi Muskaan,
Thank you for reaching out regarding your recent experience with Evo. We understand that this situation may be frustrating, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify our position.
While we recognize that fees associated with excessive speeding can be burdensome, its essential to refer to our Evo Membership Agreement, which you accepted on March 25, 2023. As outlined in this agreement, members are responsible for any traffic violations and related charges incurred while using our vehicles.We want to highlight a few key points:
1. Responsibility for Charges: When a member violates traffic laws, such as excessive speedingwhich is defined as driving more than 40 km/h over the speed limitEvo incurs towing and impound fees that must be paid by the member. Other than loss of use fees, these are costs that *** is obligated to cover, and they are subsequently passed down to the member responsible for the infraction. This is a standard practice to ensure accountability.
2. Previous Fee Waiver: We did waive fees for you in October 2023 due to compassionate grounds. However, such waivers are granted as a one-time gesture and cannot be expected for future incidents.
3. Traffic Violation Policies: According to the Government of ******, excessive speeding may result in vehicle impoundment, which includes additional fines and charges that you would be responsible for, as detailed in our Member Agreement.
For your reference, here are some resources that outline your responsibilities and the applicable fees:-*******************************

Complaint: 22396826
I am rejecting this response because:Hi ****-****,
Thank you for your detailed response. I understand that I am responsible for traffic violations under the *** Membership Agreement, and I acknowledge the terms that apply. However, my main concern is not about whether I breached traffic laws, but rather the fairness of the fees and the broader context of this situation.
While I recognize that excessive speeding resulted in impoundment, I find it unjust that Evo, a large corporation with significant resources, places the entire financial burden on the member without contesting or negotiating these costs on their behalf. As I mentioned, I am a ********** student, and this financial burden$1,536.60 in total feesis overwhelming. Offering a one-time fee waiver in the past should not negate my current need for compassionate consideration, especially given the severity of the financial hardship this has caused me.
Additionally, I want to emphasize that I do not own the vehicle, and I have been actively disputing the speeding ticket in court. I also sensed potential racial discrimination during the traffic stop, and I believe there are larger factors at play that should be considered here. As a student with no financial safety net, I feel this situation exploits the power dynamics at play, particularly when *** is threatening to automatically withdraw funds from my account.
In the current economic climate, Evo must be aware of the effects these excessive charges have on individuals, especially ********** students like myself. I do not receive any financial support from home and rely entirely on my student loans, so I literally cannot afford this. Charging such a large sum is deeply exploitative given my financial situation.
Im requesting that *** reconsider these additional fees on compassionate grounds and take into account the broader context of my situation. If waiving the fees means I can no longer use Evo in the future, I am willing to accept that, as my priority is avoiding financial ruin.
I hope you will take this into account and find a more reasonable solution.Sincerely,
