I was with TD auto insurance for over 7 years in both Quebec and Ontario (Gatineau/Ottawa). The wait-times on phone to make any changes or add any services takes forever. Also, I found from a friend that I am paying an exceptionally high premium of over $1000 more per year compared to other insurance providers when my car and house combined.
As a policyholder for a year, I've had nonstop issues with them. Insanely long wait-times aside, I've experienced countless billing issues on their end that I've always had to call in and correct (ie. double billing me 2 months in a row), representatives in their call center who exert almost zero effort to help actually solve the problem at hand, and worse - they make countless mistakes and do not take accountability for any of them. They are supposed to keep notes on your account. The most recent example of their sloppiness is when I called in to point out a billing error that they thankfully fixed during the call. At the end of the call, I inquired about when my policy was renewing, to which the representative replied 'end of the month'. I called in a few days later to cancel my policy after finding out that I have been grossly overpaying after CAA gave me a quote, and the woman on the line states that my policy 'just renewed the previous day' and as a result, I would now be responsible for a $600 cancellation fee. Because the other TD representative was so lazy as to verify my renewal date (and was so lazy that he didn't even make any notes on my account during my call with him). I am now stuck with this awful company for another whole year. I'm almost tempted to pay up the $600 just to be free from their awful service. Word to the wise: save yourself constant headaches + overpayment and avoid TD auto insurance like the plague.
TD Insurance is a mere shell of their former excellence. Customer service is now terrible, phone calls go unanswered. My auto rates just increased by 20% for no reason. Three representatives gave me 3 different reasons for the increase. Obviously, just poor management or profit bumping. We have perfect driving records and claim-free. We’re switching to a better-managed carrier. Unfortunately, many others will probably do the same, leaving TD insurance with even fewer clients, and their rates will keep increasing.
I had TD auto and home insurance for years. Never had a problem until recently. Tried to add a second car, it was too expensive so we cancelled and moved our insurance. I cancelled at the end of July. We are owed over $500 and we are still waiting on the repayment! I've called several times about it and was told it was scheduled for repayment Oct. 1. It still isn't in my account. Trying to get through to any customer service representative takes hours! I was literally on hold for over 2 hours before I got through to anyone and that was after multiple phone calls of being on hold for over half an hour, spending lunch breaks on hold etc. A total of 4hours on hold just to cancel and then more trying to find out where my repayment is. Don't go with TD insurance! I've banked with TD since I was 16 and I'm going to switch all my accounts out of TD. It is ridiculous.
I moved to Alberta from another province and despite my having proof of insurance previously they charged me almost 3x what I should have been paying because I didn't have an "insurance history" in Alberta. Every time I've tried to contact them it has had to be by phone (I went into an office and was told that they couldn't help and had to call) and each time I've been on hold for no less than an hour. This most recent time was an hour and forty-five minutes and when I finally got through the call taker almost immediately hung up on me. Save yourself the trouble and avoid TD all together
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.
You cannot send an email and every time you call you to wait over 1.5 hours to speak to someone. Their prices are not competitive and every time I tried to speak to someone about getting a better rate I was given false information and then told there was nothing they can do. Even once we spoke to a manager there was still nothing they can do. Very frustrating after spending so many hours on the phone for nothing. Today I was calling to cancel my policy since I got a better rate somewhere else... It has now been over 2 hours and nobody answers me. This is beyond nuts!
In 2020, when a company doesn’t have a system that you can leave a phone number for them to call you back, instead of waiting for hours, it’s a company not worth my time and money. The shortest amount of time waiting: 1h10min, longest time waiting: 2h 47 min...AND STILL WAITING! Luckily, I got another phone so I called 2 brokers and got 2 quotes, which one of them is cheaper. So when they pick up, it will be: Thanks, cancel everything because you can’t answer your phone!
My family was caught with no insurance last year when the insurance company decided to review everyone's premiums and make it nearly impossible (completely impossible for us) to renew our insurance in time. TD Insurance literally SAVED THE DAY and quickly and easily got us affordable insurance for 3 vehicles within a matter of minutes. However, I did not receive renewed paperwork for the upcoming year and just realized my insurance expires in 2 days. With other insurance companies, the pink slips were automatically renewed and resent to me every year. No big deal, except I, have tried to contact TD insurance 3 separate times today, for a total of about 3 hours thus far. I'm actually not sure that anyone is there. Wish they would initiate the call-back feature. I guess I'm thankful I don't have a job right now because if I did, I would have to go with an insurance company that I could reach.
I'm not sure what COVID 19 has to do with their very lengthy phone queue. If anything, there should be fewer accidents therefore fewer claims to process, fewer new vehicles purchased (therefore fewer new policy sales) but perhaps more people with time on their hands to spend all day on the phone with TD? I've not had an accident since 1998 (not even a traffic ticket), so finally I got sick and tired of spending $2,600 a year and went with another company. Was able to combine house insurance with auto insurance, add another driver and it was still a thousand dollars cheaper. If you have TD Insurance, find a cheaper and better alternative, then take a day off work and call TD to cancel.
Moved from one location to another and my insurance premium went up 1000$! It's 20 min away from my current place and although it's 20 min drive away from my current place and 10 min away from Sheppard and Yonge the new rate and TD customer service of up selling their products at this time of COVID completely pissed be off!
Ontario government needs to do something about car insurance companies!!!
