Meloche Monnex (TD Insurance) Auto Insurance Reviews

I was trying to get a quote for insurance and I was waiting for 10 minutes. I thought because I had previously used TD that it would be easier, but after waiting the agent informed me that I had not paid 20.00 and there would be interest on that from the last year. When I asked why or how much the new quote is they hung up on me! Obviously they are out sourcing this call centre somewhere people feel uncomfortable selling their scam insurance. I expect better from a Canadian company.

Worst company ever to have an auto insurance with. Hidden charges that they add up at the time of the cancellation that they have a hard time explaining !!! I paid my fees in advance and they are charging me 120 dollars as a cancellation fee and 108 dollars as a short-term notice fee? (and this is after giving one month of notice ) comparatively expensive rate. Warning: bad idea to go with them

I want to share my recent experience with TD Meloche Monnex Insurance (Auto). I just received my renewal in the mail and my rate has increased $700 annually due to a 'general industry rate increase'. I have started to shop around. Not impressed with TDMM!!!! I definitely would not recommend - stay away from this company - they will lure you in with a decent rate and then hit you with a drastic increase.

I was switching vehicles and called TD to get my insurance switched to my new car. I waited on hold for over 1 hour and 15 minutes. Unacceptable. After I got through to someone, I expressed how important this call was, as I was picking up my new car the next day and needed the insurance papers faxed to my dealership in order to pick up my car. The rep was extremely unhelpful, and did not finish my requests. This resulted in me not being able to get my car when it was supposed to be picked up. I am extremely disappointed and will be switching my insurance with a new company because the service you provided was extremely unprofessional, and unacceptable.

Let me start by saying that I waited 30 minutes to actually talk to a customer representative (who doesn't have call back service these days). The TD representative I spoke to was impatient, rude and didn't make a modicum of effort to help me out with an issue so minor that it required her to pretend to be polite for 5 minutes. Maybe she had a bad client before me but please don't spread your filth to your other clients. This isn't the first time I have received bad customer service from them. I have no trust TD Meloche Monex because who's to say i will receive any better service when I actually require to make a claim. They are very persistent in taking your money and its a one way street with no benefits. My suggestion would be to look elsewhere for an insurance provider !!

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!

They were good at first and then I was cancelled because I missed a payment by 1 hour.... 1 HOUR!!

They just want money and apparently they have so many customers in line they dont need your money.

I could understand if I didnt pay my insurance but i did and then for them to cancel me because I was a little late? and have no way of making it up to them... garbage.... don't waste your time with these guys. the Government should step in and put a stop to this monopoly that we have to go through just to want to have insurance.

See all the NEGATIVE reviews??

That is there for a reason, go somewhere else.

I had probably the worst conversation with an agent (Melorie) at about 10.15am today March 24, 2016. I'm considering replacing/selling one of my cars so I called for a quote for the new car and obviously I also called my former insurance provider "The Personal Insurance" and they had far better quotes and extremely friendly service and I felt like I was not being rushed off the call like with TD. It sounded like the TD agent had a customer count target for the day anyway I got agitated with the whole conversation and asked her if I cancelled the car insurance for the car I'm selling today whether that would affect the remaining car (I insure 2 cars and my house with them) She emphatically said yes but could not give me the dollar amount because of "system limitation " she could only estimate the increase (punishment for dropping off one car) at 15%- yikes. I then asked about my home insurance and again TD was significantly higher and with less items covered - I asked about matching and again this was a no but they got me to the retentions department and they knocked off some amount but not much. Knowing that I might also cancel the home insurance when it comes up for renewal I asked how this would affect my only car that would be insured with TD (since it still has a few month on the policy)and again they could not estimate it because of .........you guessed it " system limitation" ......this is disappointing but I have to look out for myself and my pocket .....I think its time to let TD clean up their act. This is sad for a company I truly respect. Other reviews here don't help either but I have a feeling TD may be a few bad apples and they urgently need to improve their systems unless this is a gimmick so as to spring up surprises whenever you want to cancel your policy. Customers should be provided with full information all the time so as to make informed decisions- this is era of transparency.

TD sent my renewal and then subsequent cancellation notice to an incorrect address after I moved. They had missed a digit when I called to let them know about the change of address. I didn't notice the payment hadn't come out of my account until they phoned 3.5 months later to check my address and tell me they had cancelled the policy a month ago. Not allowed to pay and renew without a 30-day application process and increased rate. Also tagged with Non-payment on my record. All of this could have been avoided with a phone call.

They suck - first year they keep the rates low and then they jack up the rates-- and even with no claims the rates go up-- and they brokers are self conceited and condescending.
