Protect yourself against the risk of identity fraud with our Identity Fraud Insurance

Protect your identity

for just $25 a year with Desjardins Insurance

An increasing reliance on computer and data technology has heightened everyone's exposure to the harmful, and often costly, implications of identity fraud. But we're here to help.

The importance of identity fraud insurance

Identity fraud victims often have to spend their own money and a considerable amount of time and energy to clear their credit histories and correct their financial records.

We offer identity fraud insurance for only $25 per year as an optional endorsement under a homeowners, tenants, condominium unit owners or mobile home policy. If you become a victim of identity fraud, you'll get expense reimbursement and personal help for the recovery process.

Identity restoration case management

This service is available for up to 12 months following a covered identity fraud incident.

A case manager works with affected agencies and institutions, including credit card companies, credit bureaus, creditors and businesses on your behalf to correct any covered identity fraud issues you may experience.

Identity fraud expense reimbursement

We provide up to $25,000 for covered expenses caused by identity fraud, including:

  • Cost of obtaining credit bureau reports
  • Fees when reapplying for loans, grants or other credit instruments
  • Phone, postage and shipping fees
  • Notary and filing fees for costs you incur to correct your identity and credit records
  • Certain legal fees resulting from identity fraud

The following identity fraud expenses are subject to sublimits within the expense reimbursement coverage limit:

  • Up to $1,000 for deductibles, service fees or other costs charged by financial institutions to enable you to recover control of your personal identity.
  • Up to $5,000 combined for lost wages and child, elder and infirm care expenses.
