FAQ's

Online Options

What policies can I buy online?

What do I do if I get an error or lock out while buying online?

Sometimes, there is more information required, and you will get a “lockout” message or error message while you are doing your online quote. That does not mean you cannot get insurance, it simply means we need to ask more questions and submit the quote through a broker, to make sure your coverage is accurate. If this happens to you write down your quote number and just call, text or email us at the contact information at the bottom of the page and we will get you what you need!

What are the benefits of buying Insurance Online?

These days, time is money. If you could get quotes to find the best insurance to meet your needs, and buy it right then, why wouldn’t you? No need to drive to an office during business hours, wait in line, wait for quotes to come in from insurance providers, and then get a policy. Buying online offers instant coverage. The benefit of using Bora Insurance Brokers to buy your insurance online, is that you still have a team of local Insurance Brokers on your side when you need them!

When you are using our online buying options, you will see little green ‘i’ icons literally everywhere. These will better explain the questions and coverage options available, and are important to read so you understand what you are actually covering. Each of the pages under the ‘Insurance’ heading on our website dives deeper into coverage types and their meanings.

Brokers

What is an Insurance Broker?

Your personal assistant in all things insurance. Insurance Brokers are specially licensed humanoids that eat, breathe and sleep insurance. Literally, it is in our dreams. We hold relationships with Insurance Companies across North America, so we can provide quotes and policies to YOU from our vast network of carriers. A broker is designed to find the coverage that best suits your needs.

Why use an Insurance Broker?

An Insurance Broker is trained in insurance wordings and coverages, and is an expert who can give you advice on your insurance needs. If you do not use an Insurance Broker for these policies, you run the risk of having gaps in your coverage, and only finding out at the time you have a claim. We also will guide you through your claim journey, and are here to answer any and all questions. We are here when you start on your insurance journey, and see it through with you right until the end.

Your broker is a valuable resource. They will provide you with counselling on all the information you need to get your coverage in order and insure everything properly.
