WOW Pretty Dismal

by Joe on Oct 18, 2016
1 out of 5 stars

By the look of all these terrible reviews, TD Insurance is one company to stay away from. All I know is, as a body repair person, TD Ins. is at the bottom of the totem pole for the rates they pay to body shops. They lag behind other insurance providers by about 20 years. I wonder where all the money is going that they are saving! I tried to get a response about this issue but it was to no avail. I guess that's par for the course for TD Insurance.

I'd like to start by saying in order to get a 1* rating by me, you'd have to be unprofessional, arrogant, complacent & willing to outright lie to your customer. TD Insurance covers all of those basis.

In May of 2016, I was a victim of a wildfire in Fort McMurray, that sadly took my home away & everything I've ever worked hard for. Surprisingly, my car was still standing on the road that I abandoned it on because of police ordering everyone to run on foot, even though everything around it burned.

Dealing with TD since has been NOTHING short of a nightmare after another nightmare.

There was a misunderstanding in my policy (me thinking I was protected because I was paying for some sort of 1-million dollar coverage) & also a Gold Premium Package. It all sounds reassuring & fancy until you actually need it & it's NOT the kind of coverage you think you're paying for.

I was given 1/3rd of what I owned & had an experience over the phone with one of their associates not realizing he didn't hang up on his end, & all I could hear was him belittling myself & my mother with another co-worker in the background. I had vice presidents & a senior manager call to "apologize" but that's all for show, they don't mean it & don't let them fool you into thinking they do.

Moving on from my Tenants Policy, now begins my Auto Mobile claim...

The associate I was dealing with about my car was calling everyday to give me an update about my vehicle - which was always the same, that it was still waiting to go into the shop but it was in a secured lot & he couldn't get in touch with them to find out more details - until about a week & a half ago when he stopped calling. I'd also like to mention that he asked ME to make phone calls for HIM because he was "extremely busy & wasn't sure when he'd be available to work on my claim." He also mentioned that he & his manager would be working on extending our rental due to the circumstance of the wildfire & the long wait for repair shops. This was all talked about around June 15-20th, somewhere in between that time frame.

Just yesterday, July the 3rd, I answered the phone to the company who TD Insurance rented a vehicle for me was calling to tell me that TD stopped paying since the 23rd of June & that I would have to start paying out of my pocket if I wished to keep it longer. I told them my Insurance extended the policy, but they said no phone call was made to them.

And so then I called TD Insurance, July 2nd, to find out what was going on.

The associate working on my claim explained to me that he was still working with his manager on extending the rental & hasn't gotten an answer back yet. And that he "assumed MY car was taken care of in the shop because myself or the autobody shop didn't call him with updates," so he stopped working on it.

I asked to speak with his manager at this point. He told me his manager would try & call me back. I waited 2 hours, no call from him, so I called again. Finally I got the manager on the phone & of course he was arrogant. He wanted to argue with me, not help me, & when told his associate was to blame, he kept repeating, "I fail to see how my associate is to blame. How is this his fault?"

I also have a voice mail of the associate apologizing for his mistake, that he should have been on top of it but wasn't & that he would work on getting the rental extended with the help of his manager. The manager also told me that they weren't going to extend it to help us out. Neither of them had plans to call & tell me this, or else I would have returned the rental when it was due to go back so that I wouldn't have another expense.

...

They'll treat you with arrogance & talk to you like you're stupid when they make mistakes & won't own up for it.

They put crooks in place of managers on purpose to deal with us paying customers, so that finally we will just give up & say it's not worth it anymore.

You'll pay them money for a service that they'll try & pass off onto you.

And you'll hear constant apologies about mistakes they've made because they decided to take their time with your claims.

STAY AWAY... and if you decide to still go through with getting insurance through TD, record every conversation you have with them & let them know that you're doing it so that it's legal. Ask a million questions until you thoroughly understand your policy - & make sure that person doesn't use words like, "I think so," or, "I'm pretty sure," because that's when you know they don't know what they're selling you.

Be smarter than these crooks.

Where do I even begin...

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

Don't ever use td insurance

I I had my 2009 cobalt ss stolen from my house I am with td insurance I filed my police report did all the nessasary paper work. I had car rental coverage no problems getting a car rental. I found my own car ditched down the road from my house the next day waited 4 hours for police to show. My car was towed to accodomy towing and put in there yard. Only damage my car had was a driver's side window that's it . The toe company never covered my window it was exposed to rain and snow and ruined the interior and all my electrical components in my car. I waited 2 weeks never heard a thing from td insurance I was not allowed to access my car at the tow yard until the police released it. It took so long I had to call sheriff office myself to get released. My car had more damage then when it was stolen. Finally td insurance contacted me saying a adjuster was looking at my car and it was going to Steele Chevrolet to be fixed. I have till this day 2 months later have not heard anything about my car. I even was put under criminal investigation over stealing my own car I have been paying off for 4 years which went no where because there's nothing to put me in the wrong over my cell phone records and my alibis where I was when my car went missing. I recently had to take my car rental back still with no car of my own and got charged over $500 for the car rental. I believe that this is the worst service that has costed me my job my apartment and my own vehicle that I still have no idea what's going on if it's going to get fixed or there just going to send me another bill after paying full coverage to Td insurance for 4 years. I would recommend to cancel any insurances you have with td insurance and if you have had a car stolen get a lawyer to look after your claim they will just screw your life over because it's hard to have a job with no vehicle and having to waste your own time and money dealing with td insurance. I hope no one goes thru this and that you cancel td insurance and get a company like co-operators insurance that will actually be behind you and take care of you like they should. Td insurance is the worSt insurance company you can have by my experience with them.

Near Death Exp - Not Covered

by Very Dissapointed on Dec 8, 2015
1 out of 5 stars

I am dissatisfied and extremely disappointed with the lack of service that I have been receiving with TD insurance and I would not recommend them to anyone. I was stopped at a red light on November 6th when a roll of truck rolled back. The 2 beams of the truck crushed my hood and my window and if it wasn't for my fast thinking; I jumped out of the car, I could have been crushed as well. I jumped out of the car and started yelling at the driver that his truck was rolling back.

TD called me on December 1st and advised me that my car would be ready and drove from Woodbridge to Mississauga to pick it up and when I arrived at the Shop I noticed the engine light that comes on. The 10,000 pounds that crushed my car also damaged the internal cam shaft of my car and now it is leaking. I have been told by the shop that TD will not be covering for this damage!! My car was running perfectly before the accident and NOW TD does want to pay for full coverage.

In addition to my near death experience, I have been told by TD that my policy has a $1000.00 NO FAULT DEDUCTIBLE, which I had no idea that my policy had. I was thought to believe that $1000.00 would be charged to me when the accident is AT MY FAULT.

Four weeks have passed and I'm left with a $1000.00 bill plus $1,000's more to fix the cam shaft and the leaking through the head gasket!

I have been in contact with some lawyers and the local media to bring this matter to everyone's attention and to help others who are left with $1000.00 bill. I cannot believe the multi million dollar company is taking full advantage of the consumer!!

Nightmare Claims and staff

by Rob Chinnery on Aug 2, 2014
1 out of 5 stars

I had an accident where an impact (verified by mechanic) caused my rad to leak and engine to burn out. T.D. refused to settle and dragged out the claim for months. Christina (adjuster) talked with me twice. Other staff were rude hard nosed and dishonest. Met with "Keith" an investigator who said a "denied claim will result in facility insurance" and intimidated me. I withdrew my claim and later thought that I would still want to purse it. On being contacted by Keith he simply yelled "fraud fraud" into the phone and insisted on a police report after the fact (no such a thing -there are accident reporting centers that you must report to in 48 hours -I had reported mine directly after the fact to T.D. Do not insure your car there - they apparently do not pay out a lot of claims (I am out 3000 for new engine, repairs to rad travelling and hotel-all supposed to be covered by T.D. P.S. claims dept ONLY calls or not taped-BEWARE.

Claiming is very painful

My Car was vandalized and I made the mistake of making a claim with TD. I have to say this is my first claim in my life. I have a pretty good driving record and have been driving for 10 years. No claims what so ever. When my new car was vandalized I called TD and the agent was quick enough to set a claim up. But then came hell. My claim adjuster never called me. He never replied to my mails. And to my sock TD will not even cover some of the thing that I am paying for. I have been wtih TD for a year now and was very happy until now.

TD is good as long as you pay then in time and don't claim for anything. The moment you make a claim its like marriage gone bad. Everything is down the hill.

Note: Please do not take to any assured TD collision center coz its a complete rip off.
