Worst company ever.

1.5 out of 5 stars
After years of using TD insurance (never had a claim) they decided to cancel my policy. They gave me less than a week notice.
When I called they couldn't give me a straight answer as to why my policy was cancelled. They told me to Google another insurance company. (This was of course after waiting on hold for a long time)
But of course they kept taking their payments out of my bank account. I had to keep calling and asking for a refund while they tried to sell me another policy?????
I'm glad I never had a claim. What a nightmare.
Never use td auto insurance!
I have only been a TD customer for a few years with a clean record. Last year (2015) I had a claim after an animal hit and this year my husband had a accident and wrote off his car. The claim and payout was fairly quick but then they refused to insure the replacement car. Its a 2011 crown vic - former police car. I have been fighting with them for 4 days over this and today got told to look around for another insurance company just in case as there is no guarantee they will insure it even after jumping through all their hoops.
Did you know that on average Ontario drivers with good driving records pay $1,805/year in auto insurance? Is your insurance rate higher? Get a free car insurance quote and start saving today.
Long term TD customer,they gladly take your money, until you have a claim. No fault rear ended at red light over 3 months ago, claim still not settled. Adjuster moves very slowly and borders on rude. When this claim is FINALLY settled, will be moving on to another company. Poor customer service when you need it!
I got a quote of a bundled insurance (auto and condo) before I was purchasing my car. A fortnight later, I called in to inform TD that I would be taking possession of the condo soon and I'd like to give them my bank information. To my astonishment, the final quote was around 200$ 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.
10 year loyal customer for home and auto. 2 incidents (minor speeding, and minor 50% at fault fender bender. Cancelled my auto. You are nothing but a number to them and basic human decency is not a part of their business philosophy. Steer clear of this place.
If you have a good driving record in AB, you should pay around $110/month (women - $105/month and men - $113/month). Do you overpay? Get an Alberta car insurance quote to start saving.
waited for over 20 minutes; still holding. TD cancelling policy without apparent cause. couple of claims that weren't his fault and only one that was. had to pick one star because 0 not available.
As with most of the other reviewers here, I had a horrible experience with TD Insurance. I had snowmobile insurance with them in the past. I got insurance for a new snowmobile I purchased in late October of 2014. I paid $581 in full for a 1 year policy. I sold the snowmobile in early February of 2015 as it was not what I wanted. I called to cancel my snowmobile insurance the day after I sold it. I had the TD insurance for a total of 111 days. Therefore, I should have gotten a pro-rated amount of $404 back. Instead TD Insurance informed me that they would return only $180 of my $404. They cited that their internal policy is to pro-rate snowmobile insurance higher in the winter because you are only really using it in the winter. What? The two people I spoke with at TD both admitted to me that there was nothing explaining this so-called "internal policy" in the policy documents sent to me...only one vague reference to "unearned portion of the premium" They said that if they allowed everyone buying snowmobile insurance to get the pro-rated amount back, everyone would simply get snowmobile insurance in December and cancel it in April. But, I told them I sold the snowmobile and would provide proof of that. They did not care. I could see a $50 admin charge or something like that, but they simply ripped me off for $224 because they know no one will go to small claims court for that amount. Basically, my experience with TD Insurance is that these guys will make up the rules to suit themselves. What do you think would happen with an insurance company like this if you have a claim??? I will never let TD Insurance insure anything I own.
Was TD client for 12 years. All that time my insurance went down. And this year it went up 40$ for no reason at all. For many years TD was a good choice for insurance. Not anymore. So you will be loosing my dad's insurance (went up as well), my house insurance and my car insurance. "Thank you" for great service.
I switched to TD auto insurance just two months ago and am already done with this company to not fault but their own.
Apparently I failed to send all documents needed and received a letter this past Friday that my policy was canceled as of today. How nice to give me two day notice. The letter stated they made numerous attempts to get a hold of me and were unsuccessful. I needed to simply fax two documents which I did. Apparently they received one and not the other. Without contacting me over this simple matter they cancel my policy?
I called them and the woman said it was indeed over that tiny mishap and to fax the letter the following day and they would fix the matter. I refuse to deal with a company who treats me like this. The very next day I called up a different company and am actually saving $75/month. I simply faxed the two documents needed and poof had an agreed insurance policy with a new company. If only TD had actually contacted me before canceling the policy since I clearly had the documents they needed. I won't ever choose TD for anything, Ever.

I've been with TD insurance for 3 years, no accidents, no claims. They gave me 1-week notice and then cancelled my auto ins. policy. I was explained that I got 2 tickets for past 3 years and that is the reason why they could not renew it, even though I had upgraded my license to G full. Awful company, would not recommend TD to anyone else.
