TD Insurance Auto Insurance Reviews

I was a customer for several years, home and auto. Never had a late payment. Came upon tough times, had 2 late payments within a year, and they demanded I pay the entire balance or I would be cancelled. Obviously, I had struggled to pay the 150$ or so, therefore, 1400$ was not about to happen. A few months later I had paid them off, and now they will not give me a new policy. This just goes along with the current TD theme of customers are only measured by what they've done for them lately. Unless you are perfect, not a great place to go. They will not work with you to solve any issues.

My car was totalled in an accident that the other party claimed full liability. My insurance adjuster lowballed me by $1500 to $2000 in their valuation "offer". Their "offer" conveniently omitted the 5% GST I'd need to pay to buy another car. I did several hours of due diligence and found ample proof that if I had to buy the exact same vehicle in the same condition, I would actually be paying $2000 to $3500 MORE than their lowball offer. My due diligence was rejected outright and I was told I could hire an independent estimator, which I did. TD's adjuster didn't even call him after receiving his report, which was almost the exact same valuation as my initial research indicated. They rejected his report outright, as well. I tried talking to my adjuster's manager, but as decent as he seemed over the phone, he didn't do anything to improve TD's "offer". I was basically told I had to enter the DRP process.

What infuriates me the most is that these people were so inflexible, uncompromising and uncooperative. It's as if their JD Power 10-minute internet car valuation is the ONLY one that exists, and no other estimate is relevant. I absolutely could not believe this. No matter how much evidence the insured finds to prove their valuation, it's meaningless to TD Insurance. That's why I've put "offer" in quotes everywhere above because there IS no "offer". It's either take it or screw off.

If you're considering TD Insurance, you BETTER hope you don't need to file a claim if your car gets totalled, because YOU will get totalled, too.

Needless to say, I'll be shopping around for another provider after 30+ years and I estimate $35,000 spent in their coffers resulted in their adjusters quibbling over $1500 - $2000...they're losing a great paying client just to save TD such a pittance. Congratulations, boys!

Terrible wait time, over one HOUR...How is it that such a large company has a wait time of over an hour to talk to an agent?

Fair warning here, always go to your dealer or a reputable auto shop when getting car repairs covered by TD Insurance. Not only is their shop extremely inefficient (had my car for 8 days for a minor repair) but they actually replaced my broken passenger mirror with a great used AND FAULTY PART! Forced me to waste more time to go get it checked out at my dealer and while the dealer could have fixed it in 10 minutes, TD made me go back to their crappy shop to get the part replaced. That’s three separate appointments, 9 days and counting and the repair still isn’t complete. Cheap used, broken parts, poorly installed and far too much time wasted.

They recommended that i get this scam of a towing company over the phone and then refused to foot the $550 towing bill. We also thoght we had collision coverage because they were charging us 40% more than what statefarm quoted us for liability coverage, turns out theyre just ridiculously expensive! I mean all this money to buy a lesson, but this is the stupidest thing ive ever had to deal with. We also apprently got a 30% discount using our university, so what are the rest of you paying for this awful coverage?

I had to submit a claim where I was parallel parking, legally, using a blinker, and someone hit me from behind while I was pulling in on an enormously wide road with no other cars. TD gave me 50% fault and was threatening to bring it up to 100% when I argued. They are bullies. I read through all the rules and repeated that any instance where someone pulling into a spot is hit it is always the other person's fault. They could not give me any reason it was my fault. They said things like “the other party is refusing to accept blame”... does that mean they don’t deserve any fault? Because they refuse to accept it? TD just wants your money. They are not on your side. I argued and eventually just paid and I am planning on changing companies. I have no problems with TD banking but do yourself a favour and avoid TD insurance.

recently was involved in a no fault accident in which I was rear ended. To say that the sevice provided is brutal is an understatement. I was actually told by my agent to enlist a lawyer as "I am on my own" This was in regards to injuries and damages to my vehicle. This was a no fault accident. I was rear ended. I am now on my third injury broker, and second accident broker. They keep going on holidays. Everyone has a different story as to what coverage I have. Countless phone calls unanswered and an average wait time of an 1.5 hrs plus to talk to someone. All this while trying to have my claim processed in the 10 day time limit imposed by the goverment. Yes you have 10 days to process your claim from date of accident. My paper work did not arrive until day 6.Brutal

I used to be able to contact them within a few minutes. I have been trying this whole week and have not been able to contact anyone. I have been on hold for over 1 HOUR several times and today 2 HOURS 34 minutes!!! I have a Chev Blazer I bought that I can't get a plate for!!! I tried the "chat online" no avail... I also left messages online. NOT HAPPY!

I've been with TD Insurance (underwritten by Primmum) for almost 4 years, since moving to Alberta.

Initially, I got a great and affordable quote, but each successive year, with no tickets or accidents of any kind, I see my rates increase by increments of hundreds of dollars.

I called them to make some minor changes to my insurance a few weeks back, changing it from commercial to personal use, and notified them of an increase in kilometers driven to/from work. I was expecting to see my rate reduced by quite a bit due to changing to personal/commuter use, but the rep told me I wouldn't save much, and that he could add accident forgiveness to my policy and it would "break even". Well, next thing you know, my rates have increased by yet another 15%, making my annual insurance premiums DOUBLE what they were just 4 years ago - and again, no tickets, suspensions, accidents, nothing. Perfectly clean driving record.

So I jumped ship. Found another reputable insurer that quoted me less than TD originally did when I first signed up with them 4 years ago, which will save me about $700 this year.

Moral of the story: There are way more affordable insurers out there.

After being with TD Insurance for almost 20 years, I can't wait to say good bye. With the move to another area of Ontario, my premiums for home & auto have increased by about $300 annually. I can accept that, but now they want 2 months payment up front on the day I move. It's a rip off!!!!
