why?
i'm a small business owner, I don't want to see anybody lose their professions, but ICBC renewals have and always will be a scam.
there is no reason to cut a 3rd party into the deal for a straight renewal.
you're basically tipping the guy. Go see him for your house insurance, go see him for complicated renewals. He'll earn his money that way.
BTW they're still getting fully paid under the new system for reviewing the renewals. The "review" that low level brokers will now do from home (without any office costs) will just reduce costs for the brokerage owners. They're going to make more money off us now, not less.
