What My Customers Have to Say...

Dan, your customer service was impeccable and you were very thorough in your dealings with us. You were patient and made sure that we understood everything when you explained the various types of insurance packages. It took several meetings for us to get to the root of our needs and you provided several options, reworking until you found the right one. You didn't give up, get frustrated or impatient, and we now have coverage that works for both of us individually and as a couple, ensuring a guaranteed inheritance for each of our children. 

We would be happy to recommend you to anyone who is looking for a reference. 

Sincerely, 

Judy Collins & David Hale; Victoria, B.C.

Dan came to our house, on a day and time that was convenient for us. He was very patient at describing each type of insurance and helping us recognize which best fit the needs of our family…and our budget! I have to admit, the whole idea of getting life, critical illness and disability insurance was quite overwhelming but Dan sure knew how to make it easy for us. I now feel at peace that we have the insurance to help us deal with unfortunate situations, should they happen. If you are thinking about getting insurance, talk to Dan first! Thank you very much for your expertise, patience and kindness Dan. 

Mylene Brousseau and Olivier Bluzat, Victoria, B.C.

Dan came to our home and my place of work several times to set up the type of insurance we needed and which fit our budget. There was a long delay for my husband to get his life insurance, due to a few health issues, but Dan was patient with us and persistent with the insurance companies and after almost 7 months of hard work on his part we signed our contracts. Because of the long delay we had moved from Victoria to Comox and Dan made the drive the long drive up so he could deliver the contracts in person.  Thanks, Dan !

Carlo and Leanne Henley, Comox, B.C.

 

 

I have known Dan for several years by way of a Business Networking Club known as BNI. This group meets weekly to promote themselves and their business.  Over the past 7 years, I have referred clients of mine to Dan for life, health and critical illness insurance. Dan has been professional, courteous, considerate and NOT high pressure sales oriented. I have never had a complaint about Dan or the service he provided. He truly cares about what products he will provide to his customers and make sure they get the proper coverage for their needs. Once you meet Dan, you will be relaxed by his caring approach and feel comforted knowing you are dealing with a true professional.

"I first met Dan Hager through Business Network International in 2003. Soon after that time I approached Dan for personal Life and Health insurance . I was so impressed with Dan’s knowledge of insurance and professional approach to service that I later acquired a Health Trust for my employees through Dan as our broker. We have been very pleased with the service and support Dan Hager has provided our agency. He presents as a man of integrity and good character. Those qualities are apparent in the manner in which he serves his clients."
Debbra Greig MSWm, President, Hannah Services Inc, Victoria, B.C.

 

"We were very pleased with the high level of service we received from Dan. Right from the point of contact Dan managed to make us feel comfortable and gave us thorough information in a very professional format. Dan didn't cut corners, rush or just want to make a sale. He spent quality time investing in our needs. Thank you Dan, we would refer anyone we know to you."
Charles and Delia Girard, Victoria, B.C.

 

"We cannot thank Dan enough for his guidance in acquiring life insurance. We felt we were finally able to make an informed decision with no pressure to purchase any more than we really needed. He went out of his way to meet with us when it fit into our hectic lifestyle and we truly appreciated it. We would not hesitate to recommend Dan to friends and colleagues. Thanks again, Dan, for everything!"
Dan and Cathy Morin, Victoria, B.C.

"Thanks so much for your time and great professional assistance. We are much better prepared for the future because of the knowledge we gained from you."
Lynnell and Jim Davidge, Victoria, B.C.

 

"Dan knows what he's talking about and seems very sincere in wanting to provide what the client needs, not what the insurance company wants him to sell. We appreciated both Dan's patience in explaining the different terms and policies and his friendly, relaxed manner."
Allison and Derek Meadows, Victoria, B.C.

“I feel comfortable sending just about anyone to Agent Dan because I know he’ll take good care of them. Dan is a very good listener with a good sense of humour. He’s also compassionate, and is knowledgeable in his business.
In my practice I often have the opportunity to refer people to an insurance specialist, and for the last ten years I’ve always chosen Dan Hager. He even takes care of my personal insurance, and the medical and dental private coverage for my office.
I suppose what I like best about Dan’s services is that he acts on behalf of his clients, not the insurance companies—he’s ethical. My clients often tell me that Dan puts them at ease, and it’s apparent very early on in the relationship that they can trust him. In a nutshell, Dan won’t try to sell things to people they don’t need, and that has built him an outstanding reputation.”
Bob Salmond; Salmond Ashurst, Victoria, B.C.

"I can't say enough good things about my dealings with Dan, he went over and above the call of duty and even suggested a book called the E-Myth that could potentially save my business before it even gets off the ground, quite honestly there has not been a single moment when I wasn't sure that he is the right guy to deal with...In fact his organization and commitment to detail has set the bar a little higher for me and my interaction and service to my customers..
Brent Willis Victoria, B.C.

"Dan,
We have know each other in a casual business manner for almost a year. I was aware that you are "the world's greatest insurance salesman". It wasn't until recently that I had the opportunity to see for myself how true that statement really is. My insurance needs are somewhat small but in dealing with you personally, I was still treated with the utmost in respect and courtesy. Concepts were explained to me in plain English, and I was left with the feeling that you actually cared about my business.
Thanks for your expert opinion, respect and easy going manner with regards to my 1st significant step in sound financial self management.
All the best,
Anthony Sanna, (SuperCoolers and SuperCoffee) Victoria, BC"

"We were recommended to Dan Hager by another professional who knew of his work. I had had some minor contact with insurance people in the past and made the phone call to Dan with a bit of dread wondering what kind of expensive, hard to understand, thing we were getting ourselves into. From our first contact, we were completely at ease with the way Dan presented the information. He asked questions, researched our options, explained the choices and made sure that we were completely comfortable with the policies we finally chose.
I was quickly impressed by Agent Dan's patience with our questions but then started to realize that he was anticipating the oncoming home- cooked Italian meal that was being presented beside the mountain of paperwork which he had laid out on our kitchen table. I guess it was no coincidence that Dan told us he would have to have another and another supper meeting with us to satisfy our questions.
So after four or five meetings we got the insurance policy that best suited our needs. Dan never rushed us or his rigatoni and lamb meatballs. Dan...you're our man!!!! "
Joey and Debbie Scarfone, Victoria, B.C.

"Agent Dan made the whole process of selecting the proper insurance package for me so easy. It's nice to know that he cares and is a friend looking out for my best interests. Thanks Dan."
Pauline Jackson Victoria, British Columbia"

"I really do not like dealing with insurance sellers because I always feel like I am being taken advantage of. I am in a bad mood long after the meeting. This is not the case when talking with Dan. He is very genuine, patient, knowledgeable, honest, and doesn't waste my time. I almost feel better about the possibility of death knowing that I am well covered.
Mark Pierog Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia"

“I have been a customer of Dan’s for a number of years. What I appreciate the most is the high level of service, delivered over the internet, in a personal, friendly way. Sometimes factual, sometimes personable, but always fast, responsive and accurate. It’s as if he was the agent next door. “
Ewald Becker; Oakville, Ontario

“When it comes to insurance I am a total mess. As a health care provider I require many types of insurance and to my surprise not only did Dan help set me up with the best policies that he provides, but he also took the time to help me sort out and understand the other policies I had. Basically I have the utmost confidence in Dan’s honesty and integrity. This is not something that can be said in the insurance business very often. Thanks Dan.”
Christopher Nordell; Victoria, British Columbia

“Dan the man gives the best backrubs ever.”
Jeff…………….Wise Guy Friend from Victoria

“All your help and guidance has worked wonders in my life”
Tim Imhoff; Victoria, British Columbia

“Working with Dan has made the process of buying insurance not just a big headache-relief, but actually enjoyable! He has worked diligently to meet my needs and to provide me with practical and comprehensive advice. I’ve learned a lot through the process of working with Dan, and have recommended him to many of my friends across the country.”
Mary Tangelder; Toronto, Ontario

“Dan is a good old boy from Saskatchewan, you should by some insurance from him. Just kidding, Dan has a good natured way of demonstrating how insurance products can augment and support your portfolio and piece of mind. Death and taxes exist and Dan helps you improve the outcome of those realities.”
Dale Dickson; Calgary, Alberta (another wise guy)

"Dan had a way of making complicated insurance products very simple to understand, and helped us get set up for maximum protection at a very affordable price. Thanks Dan!"
Steve and Kelly McClure; Victoria, British Columbia

“I remember the quick and professional way you provided me with options for life insurance, all tailored according to my personal situation and needs. I also appreciate the fact that you continue to keep in touch.”
Ronald Happel;   Heldenbergen, Germany

“I chose Dan Hager as my advisor nearly 20 years ago and have never found any reason to change despite the fact that he now lives in BC and we live in Saskatchewan. He is always available to answer questions and follow up with the various insurance companies to make sure we are paying best rates and have the insurance product that best fits our needs. Over the years we have made several changes and additions to our policies and Dan has always managed these changes well and, one thing we have appreciated a lot, is that he does it with a smile and humor despite the fact that we change our minds, are delayed with getting documents back, etc. I would certainly recommend his advice and attention to anyone who is needs help in this area. We trust and rely on him wholeheartedly for all our insurance needs.”
Virginia Carpenter and Kris Boesch; Gray, Saskatchewan

“I like the availability, because you don’t get that always and I like that down home personal touch and my investments are making for money.”
Allanah Bartsch; Charlie Lake, British Columbia

I truly appreciated the fact that Dan had my best interests and the interests of my family as a high priority in my dealings with him.

Glenn Closson; Victoria, British Columbia

“I find Dan to be a hard working conscientious person who will find the right package or plan for you. I have enjoyed meeting and working with Dan for over 2 yrs now, and always look forward to a card, usually with a lottery ticket in it; plus a phone call on my Birthday.”
Elaine Newman; Sooke, British Columbia

“My husband Arnie and I have been a client of Dan’s for over 2 years. We find him very professional and a hard worker which makes him a great person to do business with. He is not there just to sell you insurance; he is there to help you find the right type of insurance for you and your family. Each person has different wants and needs for insurance and he understands that.

With us he sat down and asked us questions and talked to us about what we needed for insurance and later explained why we needed it. He worked really hard with us and was always there to answer any questions we had.

So if you are going to buy insurance and want an honest, caring professional person just call Dan Hager of Life & Health Insurance and he would be happy to help you get the right insurance for you.”
Peggy Guenter; Victoria, British Columbia

“My name is Torill Myre-Dickson, and I have known Dan since before I came to Canada 16 years ago. He is one of the most sincere and kind people I’ve ever met, and I can truly say that I feel blessed to know him and call him my friend. A few years after I came here I settled down and ended up needing professional help from Dan. He taught me about life insurance and the importance of it, though never imposed his views of what to do. Since then I’ve come to count on him and his professional knowledge whenever there are issues in this area that need to be addressed. The best thing about Dan is that he always has his clients’ best interests at heart and he follows through on his word.”
Torill Myre-Dickson; Calgary, Alberta

“We found Dan to be an excellent agent. He reviewed our current situation and insurance and then told us that he would get back to us quickly. After a thorough review he came back a few days later with a number of excellent recommendations. He advised us with what he thought were the best policies for us and patiently and clearly answered my myriad of questions. I have utilized a number independent Insurance agents over the years and have finally found one who genuinely cares for our needs and the needs of our family. “
Dave and Nancy Bodie: Victoria, British Columbia

“I was a first-time insurance buyer and understandably overwhelmed with the number of products available. What a relief to have a professional who is so knowledgeable as well as patient enough to take the time to explain all of my options. Dan is kind, honest and easy to talk to; he was even able to accommodate my busy schedule! Thanks so much.”
Katrina Shurvell; Victoria, British Columbia

"Dan patiently helped us navigate the unfamiliar world of heatlh insurance and explained the types of policies available and the difference between the companies in the industry."
Penny Werle and John Billet; Victoria B.C.

“I've known Dan Hager for a number of years now as a friend, and a trusted business advisor. Dan has proven on a number of occasions that he will place our interests above all others, while providing us with the best possible insurance advice. I have recommended Dan to others without hesitation, and will continue to do so.”
Stacey Dewhurst; Victoria, British Columbia

“I began my relationship with Dan after an internet inquiry about life insurance. Dan was excellent in not only price but service was outstanding. It is proof that you can live in Ontario and have an efficient life agent anywhere in Canada.”
Bill Dunk; Peterborough, Ontario

“It isn’t an easy thing to do…….telling someone you really don’t know all that well…..everything you deem to be personal and perhaps, nobody’s business. But when it comes time to get insurance this is exactly what happens. Dan Hager was not only patient and discreet; he was a professional in every sense of the word. He worked tirelessly to obtain the best possible coverage for my needs and budget. His expertise was very reassuring as was his sincerity. I would recommend Dan Hager to anyone seeking insurance advice/coverage, whether it is personal, medical or business.
Without provocation……”
Sharon White, Victoria, British Columbia

"Dan was very thorough in ensuring that we got the type of policy we really needed, down to making and calculating comparisons with similar policies we had held in the UK. He co-ordinated all the negotiations and medical examinations, and shopped around for us when one company could not provide coverage for my husband. Throughout Dan was courteous and friendly and his personal approach meant that living on the other side of the country was never an issue."
Louise and David Harrison; Niagara on the Lake, Ontario

“I worked with Dan Hager for a month or so while considering options for my private extended health plan. We were dealing with some specific health issues since my previous cancer diagnosis had significant limits to what was available/not to me. Dan was consistently warm, and sensitive to these challenges. He brought much respect and information to our meetings, which helped me to make the best decision for my situation.

What I liked best about working with Dan was that he got to know me first as a person, and my insurances plans were not the main important focus of our meetings.

Thank you Dan,”
Lisa Underhill; Ottawa, Ontario
Nurse/Educator

“As new parents, we started thinking for the first time about life insurance. Dan helped us to understand the options and to make choices that best suited our situation. What Dan actually sells is security and well being. We got the feeling he cared that we would be OK should tragedy visit our family.”
Jerome Peacock and Veronika Pasovska; Victoria, British Columbia

“Thank you very much for your service Dan. You are always professional and kind. You are thoughtful and always willing to be an ear to listen. I appreciate how you take care of anything that needs taking care of. I know that when you say something, I can always count on you to follow through on what you say. You are attentive to details, and it's always nice to know that I'll get a call from you for my birthday. Thank you Dan, it's always a pleasure to do business with.”
Dre Lavack; Victoria, British Columbia

“Dan Hager started out as our amiable neighbor and friend, and then became our Life and Health Insurance agent. The great part is that, as our agent, he still maintained those qualities that we value in a friend - sincerity, sensitivity and a good listener. Dan clearly loves his work, and knows his "stuff". He doesn't talk down to you but genuinely wants to help you find the best protection for you and your family. What more could you ask for? (Oh, how about a great sense of humour to boot?!)”
Heather and Jeff Lewis; Victoria, British Columbia

“Buying life insurance from Dan Hager was simple and easy. Dan was extremely
helpful in suggesting the best company and the best product at the best
price, without compromising on my needs. He was a pleasure to work with."
Jim Dunn; Burlington, Ontario

“After getting hopelessly lost understanding complex products promoted by my former insurance advisor, I was impressed with Mr.. Hager's ability to really listen and then help me clarify my insurance needs. He then sought out products that provided me the best value within my budget. Dan's integrity, patience, determination and "no problem" attitude produced excellent results focused on me and my family,”
Dr. Brian Spencer; Victoria, British Columbia

“You are always so helpful. Even if you are not able to do exactly what we want (US Funds payment) you always do your best to help and make things go smoothly. We really appreciated your top notch service and home visits which make things easier with all our busy schedules. I am confident you will be able to help us with any other financial or insurance needs when they come up. It's nice to have choices in insurance needs and great to have someone who cares about what is right for our needs.”
Yvette and Gary Schulenberg; Oak View, California

"During the course of a year I receive numerous newsletters. Most I throw away, some I glance at, others I skip read. Dan's is the only one I look forward to and read, cover to cover. A mirror of his approach, it is thoughtful, inspired and never wastes my time with anything obvious or trite. Dan never ceases to surprise me with his thoughts on my current and future situations. He is a skilled financial analyst who, over the years, has earned both my trust and friendship."
Bill Dean; Victoria, British Columbia

"You are knowledgeable, helpful and provide a great service"
Bill Kerson and Janice Thissen Toronto, Ontario
