★★★★ Becky 1/13/2026 v5.38.0
iA is the most difficult benefit company. I've submitted physicians reports and they can't keep track of them and I am constantly delayed being reimbursed. unfortunately this is the company my workplace chose.
★★★★ George G 1/10/2026 v5.38.0
it is jumping, it is impossible to submit a claime online normally, your company did nothing yet, but already demands a feedback.
★★★★ Jessica B 1/6/2026 v5.37.0
freezes constantly and takes forever to load a page

never picks call worst
★★★★ Amit Kumar 9/14/2025 v5.21.0
app crashes in the last steps of making a clain repeatedly, making filing claims harder. no explicit option to select Medicine expenses. its hard to use the app.
★★★★ Joel John 8/22/2025 v5.27.0
The app says to go to the website. why would anyone need an app to just say that
★★★★ Aaron D 8/6/2025 v5.30.0
I moved from a different provider to IA. very inferior app, service and company compared to their competitors in Canada.
★★★★ Prince H 7/26/2025 v5.29.0

★★★★ Cm Forrest 7/21/2025 v5.29.0
cant submit insurance on site.
★★★★ Jean-Michel Guay 7/14/2025 v5.29.0
When a cie can't manage to do a thing as simple as making an app in which you can connect to your account, I am REALLY compelled to go see another insurance cie. It doesn't even send a verification code to neither my hotmail nor my gmail account. Way to go iA. App uninstalled.
★★★★ Yevgen Tubaltsev 7/2/2025 v5.28.0
The only message after login is "The service is currently unavailable"
★★★★ Dude Duder 6/21/2025 v5.28.0
I paid into the account and the money isn't there , every time yiu try to sign in there is an error code, after 3 or 4 attempts you get to see that there is a mistake on your account and good luck trying to contact anybody about any issues, they play phone tag until you are so frustrated yiu hang up
★★★★ Pratik Patel 5/23/2025 v5.28.0

always shows an error .
★★★★ Nanyo Bidness 3/14/2025 v4.29.0.0
Won't save password. Update to reply. Called your 800 number and sat on hold for 45 minutes. Thanks for valuing my time. I will begin moving my RRSP money somewhere else where they don't push me off to an 800 number and force me to use their in house message service that doesn't notify me.
★★★★ Decebal Ignat 1/29/2025 v5.22.0
Login fatiguant: on doit toujours entrer un code reçu via SMS ou courriel. Trouvez une autre façon! De plus, pour ce qui est des fonds d'investissement, les compagnies qui composent le portfolio de chaque fonds devraient s'afficher avec un click sur le nom du fonds et non pas en téléchargeant le fichier en pdf de chacun des fonds. C'est une tâche énorme et une perte de temps! On devrait être capable de voir la performance des fonds en temps réel. Temps de connexion en ligne bien TROP COURT!
★★★★ Bharti Wankar 1/11/2025 v5.22.0
transaction filters is one of the worst design I have ever faced.
★★★★ Vahid Gh 11/15/2024 v5.20.0

★★★★ Kolli Rajesh 10/15/2024 v5.19.0
app crashes during the claiming process upon uploading an image.
★★★★ Deanna Klassen 9/26/2024 v5.18.0
ia is the hardest insurance company to deal with. took two years even after the doctor sent in the paper for them to clear appointment. fighting now to get my adult child's dental approved even though she was in full time school. my dentist can't even get information on what's covered unless I am there in person. takes 6-14 days for pre-approval to go through. takes 6 - 14 days for payment to go through to our professionals.
★★★★ Sheldon W 8/31/2024 v5.16.0
Waste of time and space, this app did absolutely nothing to assist me in finding out what my options or coverage was.
★★★★★ Michael Poole 1/16/2026 v5.39.0
Not good. Claims can be submitted but if they ask for more dcuments for the claim it doesnt seem possible to add them. iA phone in support is also a 2 star.
★★★★★ Kirsten Snedden 11/25/2025 v5.35.0
claims it has features it doesn't. staff give directions for app you can't follow.
★★★★★ Jacob Warrington 11/24/2025 v5.35.0
App works good but do not recommend using there investments. Reason being charged a surrender fee's to transfer funds to another investment firm rather then transfering in kind.
★★★★★ Derek Busby 9/23/2025 v5.32.0
when I need it to work it shows that it is unavailable
★★★★★ G S 8/22/2025 v5.31.0
Every time I try to submit a claim there's some new reason it won't work.
★★★★★ Sonia Claude 7/23/2025 v5.25.0
Difficult to understand
★★★★★ Chelsey Dunn 7/1/2025 v5.28.0
Half the time I log in to make a claim, I get the message "This service is currently unavailable."
★★★★★ Bella Wong 6/28/2025 v5.28.0

★★★★★ BCV 6/12/2025 v5.28.0
clunky and out dated user interface. Difficult to navigate.
★★★★★ Rene Castro 4/4/2025 v5.25.0
there's no way to check my name and personal information
★★★★★ Brad Gosselin 1/30/2025 v5.22.0
typical massive insurance conglomerate. quick to take my premium. then selective about what im covered for. for what I pay into it annually I won't get the coverage ( tooth crown, extraction, hearing aid, glasses) that I feel I pay in advance for. below average coversge
★★★★★ Cynthia Dionne 12/14/2024 v5.22.0
the apps is slow
★★★★★ Jon Mallery (Redkulls) 11/7/2024 v5.20.0
always error logging in or app no service.
★★★★★ Joshua 9/4/2024
Extremely basic to a fault, I can't even see what I'm investing in, only balances. And other than contributions it doesn't have anything else. Just taking space on the phone
★★★★★ Rony Islam 8/22/2024 v5.16.0
The concept is good but laggind user friendly options. Not easy to find search options to see if medication is covered under my group insurance policies. Also, not clear or written what is covered on specialized treatments under policies. Must call to get clearance. Self claim is also a hassle. Take pictures but not detailed under which sections. And then the app brings us back to the beginning and start all over again.
★★★★★ Karina Langevin 7/24/2024 v5.16.0
The app does not display remaining balances of services. Does not make it convenient for the paying client.
