- You lose your social insurance card and want to make sure no one has applied for credit in your name
- You lose your wallet and want to know where to begin to get new pieces of ID
This service is offered to clients who have a home insurance policy with The Personal. Conditions, exclusions and limitations may apply.
1. Our identity theft lawyers are available Monday to Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (excluding holidays). Outside of these hours, a coordinator from The Personal Assistance Services will walk you through the initial steps and a lawyer will call you back.
