Where do I even begin...

by Tee on Jun 22, 2016
1 out of 5 stars

I've been with TD Insurance for over 5 years for both my home and auto policies.

Recently, I was parked in a grass field at a festival and hit a rut while leaving which bottomed out the front of the car and caused some damage to the front bumper cover and some stuff in behind. Was going to pay out of pocket to get it fixed, but the estimate ended up to be over $3000 (who knew plastic was so expensive)... so I decided to claim it thru TD.

I paid my deductible and they had one of their preferred shops fix the damage and provided me with a rental for a week (which was not even comparable to the car I was driving) - Strike #1.

The claims process was straightforward but trying to get a hold of the adjuster was like pulling teeth. Seems all calls are screened and are sent directly to voicemail... it would then take 1-2 days for them to bother to call you back - Strike #2.

The final straw was the ignorant and rude voicemail I received from one of their agents today that said "Due to your recent $3000 claim, we are not renewing your policy. I suggest you look online for another provider. Goodbye" Keep in mind, my renewal date is July 1st. Thanks so much for the sufficient notice! /sarcasm.

I ended up using Kanetix.ca to find another insurer and had a new home and auto policy within 30 minutes which ended up SAVING me over $1000/yr.

TD Insurance can be summed up as follows:
- Ridiculously expensive
- Terrible customer service (rude agents or agents who don't know what they are doing and have to ask a manager for help every 5 minutes)
- Ridiculously long hold times when calling in
- Rates continuously increase every year with no justification
- Insurance adjusters hide behind voicemail

STAY AWAY from these crooks

Dishonest company

I got a quote of a bundled insurance (auto and condo) before I was purchasing my car. A fortnight later, I called in to inform TD that I would be taking possession of the condo soon and I'd like to give them my bank information. To my astonishment, the final quote was around 200$ more than the initial one.

I expressed my frustration with the customer service person. The person was all understanding and asked me to send in a retroactive cancellation application, promising there wouldn't be any fees. I work in risk management so I found this a happy surprise. With this promise from TD, I gladly sent in the document and called Lapersonal for a lower quote.

Several days later, I got two mails from TD. One telling me that my Condo insurance had been successfully cancelled, the other telling me I had to pay for my auto insurance in full.

Confused, I resent my document to TD asking them to verify since it was a cancellation for two policies.

A few days later, I got a mail from TD saying the auto insurance was cancelled, but I had to pay $180+ . I didn't even save that much money from switching to Lapersonal.

So I called in customer service again asking for an explanation. They told me what I had thought they would do when I asked about the cancellation: the $180+ was for the period from the inception of the policy to the date I sent in the cancellation. I WAS TOLD QUITE DIFFERENTLY BY THE TIME THE PERSON INSTRUCTED ME TO CANCEL THE POLICY.

The customer service told me to write down that I really wanted to cancel the policy and send the LaPersonal proof of insurance to them. I did so right away.

A few days later I received another bill. This time the money I "OWED" was $197.58! Not only nothing had been done to resolve the problem, I was charged interest!!

This is the worst experience I've had with any insurance company. What I experience is 100% fraud, once during the initial quoting period once during the cancellation. I'm seeking all the ways I can to have this bill write off but I don't have all the time in the world. Avoid this dishonest company at all cost.

Run away from TD 'insurance'

by Chris on Oct 31, 2018

Run away from TD insurance. I was hit by another car while sitting at a light. Damage was minor (needed a new bumper) but I really should have taken the other driver's advice and just had them pay for it. I thought that going through TD insurance would lessen my hassles but this is where they began. I tried to get through to the claims department, which took more than an hour on hold, and then had my claims adjuster go on vacation with no one taking over. I had to cancel the autobody appointment and have not been able to get in touch with the claims department again (apparently they are always experiencing a 'high volume' of calls whenever I call). When I call to pretend I am buying insurance, I get someone right away but when they take my info and say they will call back with offers to help with my claim I do not receive a call in return. On top of this, they increased my rates! In short, TD appears to have put considerable resources into taking its customers' money (I guess this is where my rate increase is going) but little into doing the service customers are paying for. If you have infinite patience, enjoy being on hold and dealing with people who cannot help you, choose TD. If you want insurance, choose anyone else.

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.

Worst Insurance company

These TD insurance guys are the worst you can possibly go to. Been with them for over 3 years with clean record and they increased my premium with no explanation. When I called them back, they couldn't give me a reason why!!!

I happened to call them at the end of my one year insurance contract so, I asked them to cancel. To keep me with them, they said they will charge me one and half months premiums for cancellation...

Leaving them for good...

Getting robbed

by worstcaseontario on Jun 13, 2016

I moved 5 blocks away and my premium went up over $600 a year. How is this possible or even legal?

I did an online quote using my new postal code and received quotes more consistent with my previous rates, and TD happened to be the second cheapest provider. So new customers get the real rate and loyal customers of over 5 years get robbed.

TD insurance is the worst

by Pearl on Jun 2, 2016
1 out of 5 stars

I am currently having a terrible experience with TD insurance. I am a new car owner.. only paid my first and last insurance and a lot has happened. money was mistakenly taken from my account ( which was for an important appointment). td lied that i was going to get my money asap, i had appointment cancelled all because of TD. csr has been rude to me, one gave me false information and the manager promised to call me and she never did. TD ruined my week because of a lousy mistake on their end. I really want to escalate this issue and also search for a new auto insurance company. its been such a horrible experience.

Worst company ever

by hhdbvhjd on Feb 17, 2016

I see so many complaints of how they were jerked because of accidents and claims. But wait what about me?. Absolutely no claims,no tickets,no accidents for 10 years with this company and this year they raised it by 25%, yes you read it right 25%. Never ever go with TD for any of their products. I will go without a car if I have to but will not renew and never in my life have anything to with TD insurance or TD bank of TD group, TOTALLY DUMB. By the way why can't I give a negative no star rating here ? makes no sense.

Rates have went up

I've been a five year lisenced insured driver with TD for five years now. And I have no get ten any decreases at all. My policy renewal has went up almost 400.00. I've never had any claims and never missed a payment. Other companies have quoted me at 110 to 120. Offering same as TD just my policy date was just around the corner and didn't have time to switch. Just don't feel like they are offering me there best services. I have one 2010 Kia Sportage and have to pay 2300 premium.. Wow is all I can say.. I know people who have two drivers and pay way less than that on a brand new vehicle.

Not happy with car insurance reviews for your insurance company? Get a quote across up to 20 Canadian car insurers and make sure that you do not pay too much.

TD- SCAMMERS

by Luxx89 on Oct 2, 2015

Recently TD Car Insurance has been taking my car insurance out ONE DAY earlier than stated on their policy that I agreed to. I forgot about catching those pricks earlier by one day before my actual car insurance came out, and low and behold, it came out ONE DAY EARLIER AGAIN. This time they check mate me. I "missed" it and than they charged me 48$ and said the car insurance would try and come out between 2-5 business days again. I deposited the money into the account where automatic with drawls come out of. Two days later we receive a letter in the mail stating it would come out on OCT 1ST 2015 and that ANOTHER 25$ admin fee would come out NEXT car insurance payment date (not this one), not the original 2-5 days, but 9 more days (sick bastards) they know how I deal with my online banking and that ALL my bills come out on the 1st of every month, so they were hoping I would forget to transfer fees from my other bank to this account. Anyways OCT 1ST and what do they do? They pull out the 25$ ADMIN FEE and than they pull out my car insurance, hoping I would not catch it (the 25$ fee) so that they could charge me ANOTHER 48$ (because they were not suppose to take out that 25$ fee until next car payment) You need to be careful with TD. They are sneaky sob's, and they watch how you bank, and get to know you as a person through your online banking, to ding you for fee's. Paying an overdraft fee monthly and or having overdraft is pretty much a payment to keep them off of your bank. There the mafia, that pay analysts to watch your every move so they know when they can ding you with fees. RUN AWAY FROM THEM WHILE YOU CAN!!!
