I've got about 5% off my existent Sonnet insurance after applying Tangerine discount. Your mileage may vary.

Yes, I got that ⬆ message too.
Like most of us here, I have long since become accustomed to using 'online-only' FIs for HISAs & GICs. However, I still can't bring myself to trusting my home and all my property to an 'online-only' Insurance Company . . .
(e.g. https://www.sonnet.ca/about-us).
I worked in the business (Insurance Company side) as both a Claims Adjuster and then as a Commercial Underwriter, for many years. The true test of any Insurance Company, is how well they handle their customer's insurance claims, as things can sometimes go 'Sideways', even with the best of them.
I can't say from personal experience ... but from what I've heard, dealing with an online-only Insurance Company during a claims process, can very often end up being; 'A Horrid Nightmare'.
Trusting my home and property to an online-only Insurance Company, is a Bridge I'll probably never cross.
