MacDonald-Gill Insurance is very reliable and always ensures we get the right coverage for our needs. Tracey and her staff are super friendly over the phone and in person. They are always quick to respond and drive to our office to complete all the paperwork so we don’t have to take time out of our busy work schedule. We’ve used MacDonald-Gill for home and auto insurance and we would recommend their service to anyone looking for exceptional service.
I have been dealing with MacDonald Gill Insurance for many years, and would not change.
They cover my home, auto, motorcycle, and travel insurance. I am a very busy person, and they always remind me when my insurance is due and they will deliver it personally to me, so I do not have to run around or wait in line.
I highly recommend Tracy and her staff.
Hi Tracey,
I recently needed to renew my personal ICBC Autoplan insurance and had, like many people seem to do, forgotten to do it ahead of the due date.
When I went to your office I was greeted by a friendly young lady who promptly directed to one of your capable agents.
Within a few minutes of my arrival (without any guilt about being almost late) I had my insurance and was on my way.
The service I received was friendly, courteous and professional. They really understood the situation and quite simply Tracey, your team hit it out of the park!
I would not hesitate to refer you and your awesome team and will tell anyone who will listen of your great work!
