Poor Client Retention

by Spencer S on May 25, 2020
3 out of 5 stars

I am young and work in the insurance industry. I am my 3rd year of being insured with no accidents, yet premiums went up on renewal. The logic behind their pricing methodology makes no sense to retain customers. Most providers would absorb any market increases for no/low-risk clients to show that the value loyalty and as there is no justification, yet the chose to increase rates anyhow. In terms of pricing for COVID, they are providing reduced rates which is great of them, however, the mandate came into effect late May and is only effective after that point in time. Most insurers would backdate this premium rebate to the date where people were no longer commuting, April 1st unless there were claims made within that period of time. While they do offer very competitive rates right off the bat, the company seriously lacks any client retention initiative.... and if you have to pay a little more for another insurer you will probably profit off of it with rate reductions for a good record in the long run.

Worst Customer Service

by cust01 on Jul 10, 2019
1 out of 5 stars

Tried to call them five days in a row with wait times over 1.5 hours each time and still unable to get a hold of anyone at this poorly operated company. This is extremely unprofessional and inconsiderate of other people's schedules. I was a loyal customer for over 10 years with a clean driving record to date, yet they increase rates for no apparent reason and/or justification. I'm curious to see where my money is going since they don't even have enough personnel to service their customers who are paying them good money for the mediocre service they offer. I will be cancelling my auto insurance with this company and strongly advise anyone looking for any sort of insurance to stay away from this company. They will rob you of your money and purposely not answer any of your phone calls requesting a simple explanation which you have a LEGAL right to as a customer, given that you're paying for their "non-existent" services.

Terrible company.

Terrible company. I have used TD Meloche Monnex for 4 years for my car insurance and after doing some research I found out I was paying extremely more than what I should have been ($1300 more). Each new term my premium would increase (I have never been in an accident) and when I would call to ask why they would give me some nonsense excuse. Not to mention trying to contact someone would take at least an hour. Yesterday I was put on hold for 2 hours and 56 minutes (I have proof). I've never been so disappointed with a company in my life. So unless you want to spend half of your day waiting on hold to speak to a representative, OR don't mind paying way more than you should be paying...don't use TD Meloche Monnex. Just read the reviews, they don't lie! ps. Thank you to the representative who cancelled my policy for me and completely understood my frustrations with the company.

If you have a good driving record in AB, you should pay around $110/month (women - $105/month and men - $113/month). Do you overpay? Get an Alberta car insurance quote to start saving.

Poor service

I was with Meloche Monnex for 35 years without incident! I had a bad year after my father's death and wound up with 4 tickets. Meloche sent me a letter cancelling my insurance and only giving me a few days to make alternate arrangements. When I asked for an extension, they declined. After treating me so badly they had the audacity to ask me to return to them when my tickets cleared. I would not ever recommend this company to anybody and would never again use them myself. I had 2 vehicles insured plus my home insurance. I pulled all my insurance and went elsewhere. It turns out Meloche is not very honest. They claim to be cheap and I found much better deals elsewhere even with tickets.

increase of over $1000!

I was with TD Meloche Monnex for just over a year (house and auto). When I first signed with them I was happy as the rate was the lowest I could find. $205/mth for auto and $98 for house. I got my G licence within this year and expected my rate to decrease since I had no accidents, no tickets, no claims and I got my full G licence. I got my renewals in the mail and I was shocked to see that my auto had increased over $1000 a year. Auto insurance was now $294 and home insurance was hiked up to $118 per year. I called to find out why, thinking this could only be a mistake. The person on the phone told me there was no explanation except maybe all rates had gone up. She tried to keep me as a customer by telling me that if I had winter tires I would get a huge discount. Once she told me what the discount was (a measly $160 a year or something stupid) I laughed. They increased my auto insurance over a year, but would now give me a discount for having winter tires of $168. laughable. I shopped around and found another company that is charging less than when I first started with TD. I was told by one broker that a trick TD uses to get customers is to offer them a much lower rate at first but then on renewal, they increase it to make up for the lower premium they offered you at the beginning. Scammers!

Beware!!

by Randy on Mar 24, 2015

We are with TD Meloche Monnex for last 8 years. We never had a claim, never got a ticket, luckily never had an accident. We also had house insurance with them from last year. I got G licence this year. As per our last conversation our insurance rate suppose to decrease for next year. But We are surprised to see that out rate increase 28/mo for next one yr. When I called they dont have any logical explanation. Even the guy on the phone are telling that there are no logical explanation why its gone up and he is sorry but he can not do anything about it. We have time to accept it or reject it after doing our own math.
This is how they are treating their loyal customer!!

Rates Kept Going up

by Lee on Oct 29, 2013
2.5 out of 5 stars

I had been with TD since 2001 (so over 12 years).
At first my auto rates were very reasonable.
But noticed that my rates have been going up for the last few years.
I'm in my late 30's, have home insurance with them, have had a clean record for over 9 years (my only accident was in 2004 and was a both at fault accident, but has since been wiped off my record). I don't drive anything fancy or racy. Yet this year's renewal went up over 15%. When I called, the customer rep had no answer, only to say, it might be the car you drive.
So I have since left, as I used a insurance broker who found me another company 45% less!
I have since moved both my home and auto insurance over.
