“Before we found Abundance Employee Benefits we had asked our previous broker to get us into a group insurance pool to keep our rates at a reasonable and predictable level. I couldn’t believe my eyes when we were slapped with a 50% rate increase the next year, without any warning. It was only then that my former broker defended himself by pointing to the fine print that revealed that only a few of our benefits were being pooled and even those benefits had very low limits. I was not impressed. We needed a new broker that we could trust and [More …]

“We chose Abundance Employee Benefits because we found them to be organized and transparent. When we were looking for a plan we gave them the opportunity to bid because their founder was a client of ours. However, they didn’t take advantage of that prior relationship and instead were upfront with us about the information we needed to make the right choice (even if it might lead to us selecting their competition). In the end, this transparency set them apart as the type of company we wanted to work with. Since then, we have been delighted by the organized way in [More …]
Optimum Studios Ltd.
“We like dealing with local companies. Our previous insurance company was based in the east which meant that we communicated primarily by email and with the time difference, it sometimes takes a while to get a reply. Now we can pick up the phone and get an answer when we need it and even emails are returned in a reasonable time frame. The other thing we are delighted by is that even though we are a small company we were allowed to personalize our plan. Abundance Employee Benefits listened to our real needs and let us create the plan that [More …]
Alpha Integrated Systems Ltd.
“We had been talking about getting an employee benefits plan for 10 years but always thought we were too small for one. We would just pay our employees’ medical bills as they came up but were finding that it was more expensive to do it that way than we had anticipated. When we asked for quotes for a plan to meet our unique needs, other companies seemed to always say ‘No, we can’t do that.’ However, we never heard that from Abundance Employee Benefits. Even though we are small they always said, “Of course we can do that, it’s your plan.” That [More …]
Adanac Roofing Ltd.
“Our previous insurer gave us what we thought was a great rate. Little did we know that they were just low balling their first year rates to get our business. When our policy renewed the next year we were absolutely shocked. Our rate increase was so high that we thought they sent the bill to the wrong company. When Abundance Employee Benefits contacted us we were just about to go ballistic. Saving us from that confrontation, they met with us and showed us how we could get the coverage we wanted year in and year out without sticker shock. I [More …]
Butler Ridge Energy Services
“As an oil and gas company, it was challenging to find quality benefits at a competitive price. We found that out the hard way and were happy to connect with Abundance Employee Benefits, who provided us with an excellent benefits plan that helped us attract and retain top talent. This has also helped us land significant contracts because our clients know we have secured a reliable team. Furthermore, they were able to anticipate future business challenges and help us avert or solve them in a cost-effective and clever manner. Their expertise is obvious, and they are able to translate it to “common English”. [More …]

Western Tank and Lining
“The advantages of using Abundance Employee Benefits as our benefits advisor have been significant. Before, correspondence was slow and employee satisfaction was only moderate. We also did not know if we were getting a competitive rate (we weren’t). Now correspondence and service is responsive and professional, and we saved thousands on our health and dental plan in our first year with them. Amadeus and his team also manage our group RRSP plan and we could not be happier. Our employees are paying less in management expenses and have a better understanding of their investments. Employee satisfaction with a benefit plan has [More …]
Forehand Foods Group
“As a company we put much pride and importance into the Association Plans we offer to our employees. Before we worked with Abundance Employee Benefits, we received little support and rarely connected with our benefits advisors. We no longer worry about that relationship. We are in the service industry ourselves and now feel we have a benefits provider who considers customer service with the same conscientious approach we would expect from ourselves. Amadeus and his results-oriented team have been responsive, proactive and personable with all our questions and concerns. They have made this partnership accessible and a joy to use [More …]
