Bad Customer Service

2.5 out of 5 stars
I have had to call in 5 times to try and have 4 vehicles properly listed online so I could print pink cards... wait times are over 40 minutes so I can't imagine if I had a claim.
I reversed my parking insurance back to full-coverage 2 weeks early and was charged an extra $565. For 2 weeks?
However, their rates are cheaper than anywhere else I have found
Wait times online are absurd, but when you do finally reach a service agent they are typically very nice and helpful.
They have too few customer service reps. When I finally got through I was told how the charges would go through to which I agreed. They didn't go through as agreed (charged to credit card) and debited my bank account without my permission. Since there was a balance outstanding, because the full amount wasn't debited, I couldn't get access to my account online because there was a balance outstanding? Ridiculous...
Last week I tried to obtain a TD Insurance car quote online about 7 times, each of them ending "we are experiencing issues..., contact us 1-877...) So I called and ended up listening to the hold music for 2h 48m for TD Insurance Call Centre agent. After I got a quote, I was given a case number and was instructed to call back with a VIN number once I have the car. I asked whether there is another number for already existing pre-filled quotes and learnt that no, I would have to call 1-877 again and wait for over 2 hours to get a policy. Today, I spent 3h 56 minutes from 12:03pm to 3:59pm listening sickening music that makes you brain dead, after which the call dropped. As I need to pick up my car today and I do not have another policy, I called back. It has been already 2h 12m as I am on the second bout of sickening hold music, completely drained after the current total 6 h 8 minutes hold. And I don't know how it will go once I reach 4 hours again.
Impossible to contact this company and the online system is a nightmare! Go elsewhere. Imagine having an accident and not being able to contact, imagine buying a new car and you can't contact... it happens all the time! I can't wait till my contract is up I am going to-another company...
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.
I tried calling a few times. Have totally given up after 6 attempts. They should at least give the option to call you back, or tell you the approximate wait times! I’ve been a customer for many years, and I’m thinking of switching because they simply DONT PICK UP THE PHONE!
They don't answer the phone (several times over an hour waiting), the on-line "chat" doesn't connect, and they are not answering questions by email either. Is this TD or some sketchy boiler room operation?
I recently bought home insurance and wanted to add car insurance. I could not get anyone on phone - tried for a week - endless wait-times, no way to ask for call-back. There is no way that they would ever treat an actual claim in a timely manner. WORST CUSTOMER CALL EXPERIENCE EVER.
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.
I have both home and auto. I have questions and have tried multiple times to reach them by phone (leave it on speaker so I can continue with activities) and eventually give up. They have sent me two identical invoices for my home and have raised my auto insurance. One is due tomorrow and another due next month. Do they have any employees at all? I would give them a zero!

Customer service used to be good. Now I don’t know if I will be able to understand the agent who answers.
Call wait times have increased and the hoops I have to jump through before they will even help me are getting unbearable.
Fix your customer service department! Your rates aren’t that good.
