What Our Customers Have to Say
I recently worked with Lisa Robertson to get my auto insurance, and I had an amazing experience! Lisa was so friendly and made the whole process much easier and more pleasant than I expected. She took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I was comfortable with my options over the phone. I am happy I decided to reach out to The Ostrich Group for guidance!

She ensures we get the best coverage for our money. She is friendly, courteous and always professional in all our interactions with her. You won't find a better insurance broker to meet your needs.

Lisa Robertson was unbelievable….while shopping around for home and auto insurance Lisa was the only person that took the time to explain all the types of coverage and in the end she got us the best price in town. Her customer service skills and lovely personality were off the charts. So happy we are with Ostic.

I have used the Ostic Group for a while now and recently got assigned to Mikayla. What can I say, she makes insurance easy! Yes you heard me, insurance and easy in the same sentance. I would never go back to a traditional insurance company again, go see Ostic and hope you get the awesome Mikayla.

Been a customer for almost 35 years now (Guess that alone ages me!!)Never a problem with any of the staff really. The odd thing is missed or is incorrect. However, they are quick to fix anything you need.My regular agent went off on maternity if my memory serves me correctly, and lately, I have been working with James. He has gone above and beyond and is relatively quick at resolving inconsistencies.We would and have recommended Ostic to others.Take care everyone at Ostic!R. LOWE

Our family has been dealing with OSTIC insurance for nearly 35 years. When we had the misfortune of experiencing a car accident a number of years ago, our agent Lisa, was exceptionally courteous, helpful, knowledgeable, and prompt in dealing with our many questions and eventual car replacement. If Lisa doesn’t have a “quick answer” to any of our questions, she is very thorough in her investigation, and usually responds within 24 hours! Hats off to Lisa, and the other wonderful staff, at OSTIC insurance in Guelph.

After meeting Jessica Dewey on a happenstance years ago, I have always turned to her for insurance advice as I know she has always had her client's best interests in mind. When I switched brokers to Ostic Insurance, it was the best decision I have made as Jessica always notifies me of changes in my policy, and works dilligently to get me the best insurance coverage at the best rate possible. She is always there to answer any questions I have in a pleasant, professional manner, and I am delighted to not only refer to her as my insurance broker but also as a friend.

I've recently received home & life insurance from The Ostic Group and have been very pleased. I'll be completely open on this review in saying that they are a client of where I work, but this did not sway my decision.Jessica Flanjak and The Ostic Group team were helpful while presenting my options. Jessica made it a simple and delightful process. I feel very good about my decision and will be switching my auto insurance over to The Ostic Group as well.

I recently purchased my first car and needed insurance. My friend referred me to The Ostic Group and I am so happy they did. Jessica Dewey was so helpful and went out of her way to get insurance for me, even offering to stay late on a Friday to get the paperwork filled out! Being a first time car owner, I didn't know where to start or what was the best plan for me. Jessica was very informative and made me feel very comfortable throughout the application process. Highly recommend!
