TD Insurance Auto Insurance Reviews

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.

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

I moved 5 blocks away and my premium went up over $600 a year. How is this possible or even legal?

I did an online quote using my new postal code and received quotes more consistent with my previous rates, and TD happened to be the second cheapest provider. So new customers get the real rate and loyal customers of over 5 years get robbed.

I am currently having a terrible experience with TD insurance. I am a new car owner.. only paid my first and last insurance and a lot has happened. money was mistakenly taken from my account ( which was for an important appointment). td lied that i was going to get my money asap, i had appointment cancelled all because of TD. csr has been rude to me, one gave me false information and the manager promised to call me and she never did. TD ruined my week because of a lousy mistake on their end. I really want to escalate this issue and also search for a new auto insurance company. its been such a horrible experience.

On the phone for over an hour waiting for an answer. Fed up, I just hung up and called CIBC. They answered within the minute and my quote was $160 less per month then what TD was charging me. Do not go with TD, you WILL regret it

I have been trying to get hold of TD auto insurance. Yesterday I waited on hold for 35 minutes without anyone answering..

Currently I have been waiting for 40 minutes. This is not acceptable.

Right now, I am on the phone waiting for an agent for more than 1 hour while I am writing this review. at the beginning they are asking whether I am an existing customer or new customer and after getting the information that I am an existing customer they make me wait more than a hour and I am still waiting. And no information about how long I will be waiting more. Worst customer service I have ever seen.

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.

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 waited on the phone for 40minutes and ended up hanging up before anyone answered .. Called the next day , waited 30mins and said fuck it. TD has the worst and slowest service
