Meloche Monnex (TD Insurance) Auto Insurance Reviews

I had a car accident and followed through with my claim, two weeks later, I have recieved calls for car financing and mail for the same in droves. I have never had this much mail (three inserts per day) nor ever had unsolicited calls. What's up with that?

Their rates keep going up and I rarely drive as I am a retiree with an immaculate driving record. I just don't get it!

We had insurance with this company for 2 years. We had no issues in our 2 years with them, they were awesome when we moved to BC....until we cancelled our policy to obtain insurance in BC.

We called to cancel. They never told us of any additional costs or final balances, I actually have a letter from them stating that there were no additional amounts owing. We left it and went on our way.

3 months down the road we get a letter from a collection agency saying our account has been assigned to them for an owing of $274.
They never once tried to get a hold of us by phone, by letter, by email.... anything to inform is of this money owing. To say we were blindsided is an understatement. We called numerous times and was refused answers on WHY we owe this amount. Asked the manager for a copy of a statement of what the owing was for. No one would do anything and told us to deal with the collection agency.

I would never use them again and I sure as heck wouldn't suggest them to anyone I know.

They are the worst I have been trying to cancel my car insurance over two years. They don't communicate via email so I have have to take time of work to wait hours to try and get someone on the phone who has authorization. Then when I speak to a number of people they tell me oh they are missing this form or that signature. Seriously they should not be allowed to sell insurance or work with the public. I am so angry and feel so mistreated by this company... THE WORST !!!

I never have claim, and did not move, however, they increase the premium every year. They recommended an app called myAdvantage said if I use it, then get some discount. I used it for a couple of days, then get an email said they did not receive the data. two days later, I was removed from the program, with a premium modification of $18/month. I called them, they said, I did not activate the app, and can not register any more. The fact is, I used the app, and upload the data. Their email confirmed that they can not receive my data!

The vehicle was recovered by Calgary police when they arrested the perp driving the vehicle and charged with theft under 5,000. The vehicle was impounded where it seemed to have been forgotten by the insurance company.

It took a year of constant calls and emails to the insurance adjustors. Adjustor finally paid 3,100 for the vehicle even though I had bought that vehicle for $4500 just weeks prior to theft and had provided pictures showing the condition of the vehicle. Their first offer was $2600. During the one year to settle this claim they paid $15,000 in storage and towing. If this was my only vehicle, how would I have gotten to work or lived?

Unfortunately this review won't accept zero stars therefore I had to rate them a one.

Interestingly the Insurance Ombudsman indicated that they were trying to push the claim past one year so they would not have to pay it.

I was left a vm indicating I had to call TD urgently, no other details were given. I called the # left on my vm and after waiting for more than 15mins to speak to someone, I was finally connected, only after 3 mins into the conversation the agent hung up the phone. So I had to call back and again had to waste more time waiting to be connected. Once I was connected, I asked what was the urgent matter about and the agent had no idea what I was talking about, after finally looking into the "notes" they have in the file, she said it had to do with adding all members of the household to my policy because in a previous claim I had made 2 months ago my bf was sitting in my parked car that didn't even have the keys in the ignition when some lady backed into my car and did a hit and run. But as far as I knew, the adjuster who was dealing with my case, had the file closed and nothing was ever mentioned to me at that time or any time about adding household members to a policy. So this was all brand new info to me. The customer service agent was rude and arrogant and even went as far as accused me of not following the law by not having my bf on my policy, when I had no idea this was necessary when NO ONE drives my car but me! I don't let anyone drive my car ever, never have. The agent continued to accuse me of letting my bf drive my car and then he even said, and I quote "if you have 1000 roommates they all have to be on your policy and you have to be on theirs!" He was trying to intimidate me and push me into adding my bf to my policy and I had to defend myself that no, I don't have to add him, he doesn't drive my car, I am disclosing that we live together yes, but that doesn't mean I have to add him to my policy. I told him my bf has his own car that he drives, and the agent said: "does he have insurance?". I told him "obviously!". Then even after knowing this information he continued to say "oh well he still has to be on your insurance, you're breaking the law!" Then I told him "I am a law-abiding citizen, how dare you accuse me of such a thing, you don't know anything about me! Send me the documents in the mail so I can familiarize myself with this information and after I fully understand the info I will contact TD myself to provide the appropriate details and after getting the permission from my bf to disclose his details". I called back the next day and escalated this call from that agent, it's supposed to be reviewed by a supervisor, that's not going to help fix the fact that TD customer service is the worst!! And on a different occasion, I had called to change my address because I had moved, and the agent said he "needed" a credit card number to update my address...which was a lie. He would not complete my address change unless I gave him a credit card number (and there was no outstanding balance or anything, I have a very good standing with my insurance and with my banks) I seriously think he was trying to scam. That call was also escalated and the manager called me back and apologized and told me that agent will be getting more training to support him. The people they have working in their centres are rude, arrogant, and extremely disrespectful! They are pushy and try to intimidate you to get more money out of your pocket! Stay away from TD insurance by all means!!! As soon as my insurance is up for renewal, I'm taking my business elsewhere!

This company will do whatever they can to deny your claim. Also, investigator will want to interview you in your home. What a joke. Avoid this insurance company at all costs.
