Just Getting a Quote was Awful

First of all, the three times that I had to contact them, it took me at least 1 hour and 15 min waiting on the line. Second, when I signed my first-year insurance with TD they said I could download the My TD Advantage app to receive up to 25% if I have at least 1000km and a minimum of 90 days usage. I did it and I called them right away to obtain my 22% discount (as the app was displaying). At that time they told me that the discount would come only on the renewal and I would have to use the app for more than 9 months. I did it!! When I called them to renewal they mentioned that my premium was exactly the same amount as the previous year (actually the difference was one dollar). Then I asked about the app discount, they said they had already accounted for the 20% discount from the app usage and the reason was that the insurance actually increased 20% from the previous year to the current year. I did not like the answer, so I went online to price my insurance on TD online tool, I added all my information (age, years of license, the street that I live), all the same, but using another name... The online tool gave me the same rate that they said I would have to pay with the app discount. I am not gonna change the system or fight with them, I changed my insurance to another company for better pricing and I will never do TD again. My advice is DO NOT BELIEVE IN TD DISCOUNT APP TO OBTAIN DISCOUNTS FOR THE NEXT YEAR. It is fake!
Waited an hour on hold. Finally filled out for an auto quote online but there was a "glitch" when I submitted the form. I'm worried about what kind of service exists if I were to have a claim or a billing problem. I guess this isn't the insurance provider for me.
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.
Used their online quotation system. the cost was going under $1000. Then contacted an agent and was told the annual cost would be $2400. The funny thing (not really) is that I have been a customer for almost 45 years. Am now looking some-where else. Pure scam.
Wish I could give them zero stars.

Waited over 2 hours to talk to someone on the phone, then gave up and tried an online quote. From there a quote was emailed to me with no coverage details. Waited another 2 hours to talk to someone who requested that I enter all the details (4 drivers, 4 vehicles) because he couldn’t access the previous quote. All this to find them 30% more expensive than my existing insurer. Next time I will save myself the trouble and not even try Meloche.
