. Stay away from TD Monnex.

1 - Increase home insurance rates by 70%; I never had a claim in 15 years I was insured with them. I gave them a boot.
2 - My wife called them to report an individual that was writing her vehicle information to avoid a scam. They recorded as an at fault incident - with no recourse. Waiting to give them a big boot .
3 - My car; I gave them a booth.

My recommendation to this company is to hire real professionals to manage risks and stop looking for stupid excuses to hike prices and blatantly disrespecting customers.

Not on your side

Submitted an auto claim recently and they did absolutely everything in their power to not tell me what options and benefits I am entitled to. Adjuster didn't bother asking if we were all right, only replied yes no or i dont know to questions I asked and even went so far as to tell me not to bother submitting photos. Pretty sure all insurance companies are not much different but will be leaving TD asap.

nothing but talking heads

After a 25 year clean driving record and over 10 years with this company I made the mistake of calling them to say that is backed into a post and wanted to know what my deductible would be and how it would affect my premiums. They could tell me only what my deductible was. They couldn't tell me how it would affect my premiums because that isn't calculated until renewal???? I say fine, I'll leave it and pay for the repairs myself. That's when she said that it would still show up on my record as an at fault accident. I went up the monkey chain a couple of levels and got the same canned reply. One supervisor thought that maybe the premiums wouldn't go up that much if I didn't complete the claim. This outfit is a ripoff. They suck you in with big alumni discounts and then jack up their prices yearly. Don't ever use them.

Did you know that on average Ontario drivers with good driving records pay $1,805/year in auto insurance? Is your insurance rate higher? Get a free car insurance quote and start saving today.

Discrimination and Bad Service

by ESchool on Jun 3, 2014

I was previously a Meloche Monnex customer for several years up until 2012, due to the "discount" offered by my university for the group policy. At the time, I thought it was a great thing, but the adage of "you get what you pay for is true". I submitted two claims through them where they decided I was "at fault" - one a driver who by his own admission was asleep at the wheel reversed his car into mine (so, I rear-ended him, apparently) and the second, where I was rear-ended by a taxi driver, and I apparently "backed my car into the taxi" while I was parked at the curb. With this second claim, the insurance adjustor, the taxi driver, and the witness were all of the same ethnicity, so naturally they would all share the same story.
Due to my experience I can say with confidence that TD practices and endorses discrimination and abuse of their position. Go anywhere else and you will have a better experience.

Never get Auto Insurance here

by Toyota on May 26, 2014

Basically a good company if you never get a claim

One you have a claim as I did for a stolen vehicle I got ripped off.

My truck on Christmas, 3 months later I got it back from insurance after months of trying to get a hold of people and people hanging up on me.

Bought my truck for $9000, got $3600 back from insurance all because my door handle was ripped off and ignition busted so therefore in their books its a write off

NEVER GET INSURANCE FROM TD!!!!

You get what you pay for

Not at fault not paid

by EXmeloche on Sep 15, 2013
1 out of 5 stars

Was in a parked car with engine turned off. Other party smashed into the vehicle. Was apologetic and even wrote a sorry letter. Yet the insurance company took over one year to decide that it was 50 percent my fault for sitting in a vehicle without the engine on and legally parked and getting hit by someone to acknowledged responsibility. Would not pay for my deductible. Had to take them to small claims court for them to pay.

Cancelled my home, and three vehicle insurance at the next renewal and paid only a few bucks more for an insurance company with a reputation of paying when they need to.

If you are filing a claim with them read your rights on the FSCO website because they depend on your ignorance to deny you.

Terrible! Avoid at all cost

I have what I thought was a simple claim man backed into me in a parking lot, my car was off no issue right? Wrong this led to a claims proses that took almost two years to come to conclusion and led to them arbitrarily deciding that it was to be a 50/50 claim. I called them almost weekly looking for updates. My first adjuster called me only once and then went on maternity leave. The second adjuster I didn't even know existed until my third adjuster called to let me know she was handling it from now on. It went even more down hill from there, she was rude and quite short when on the phone. I received multiple promises of a "team leader" calling me one "the next 24 hours" which never happened. And after more then a year I get a call out the blue albeit only after I contacted the TD ombudsman letting me know they had to settle for only a 50/50 claim. I then told my adjuster this was 100% unacceptable and that if this accident went against my record I would leave TD meloche, her response was "that's fair" in a careless tone as if my buisness was worthless. So to sum it up: Never ever do business with TD Meloche they don't care about you at all!

NO follow up for accident

by sisili on Aug 21, 2013
1 out of 5 stars

I had an accident, in which I was not responsible. However, due to lack of support from TD insurance, I lost the case. They never sent any one to accident's location. The accident was in private parking, and police did not get involved. They just wasted time to lose the case. My adjustor never picked up the phone, and never called back even though I left messages so many times. It is not a fair situation for customers to be part of their dirty game.

Claims experience

Customer for many years. I have found that the rates from TD Meloche Monnex has consistently been amongst the lower priced suppliers. But even more important, is that when my car was t-boned, the claim was handled promptly and in a very professional manner. Rental car was provided which I used for 1 month as my car was in the shop for that long to get parts in from Germany (nothing exotic - just a Saturn Astra). Body shop and car rental was paid directly by TDMM. I will be renewing with them.

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.

Buyers Beware

by marisakeller on Sep 3, 2012
3.5 out of 5 stars

TD Insurance did offer me a competitive auto insurance. However, the two main issues I had was with an accident claim (now off record) and heavily rising premiums the past couple of years, despite a good driving record. My claim for a US accident (not at fault) was not dealt with well. Due to slow case processing and a lack of will to pursue the incident due to complications with cross-border rules, I did not find the claims process fair nor easy to deal with. Despite not being at fault, I ended up taking a premium hit and absorbing the claim. Also, premiums have risen $1000 the past 2 years, a huge increase, merely due to the demographics of "other" drivers that live in the same neighbourhood. Where good driving and loyalty were once both considered a factor in competitive insurance rates, I find more recently that this is not the case and will be re-assessing my options upon renewal.
