Bad bad customer service and increases

What happened to your customer service? I had an automobile claim a few years ago and had excellent customer service. This year I simply tried to pay my annual home insurance premium by phone and gave up after two tries. Whoever is in charge of your customer service should be fired! Unless I can actually talk to an agent the next time I contact you I will definitely change to another insurance company next year. I am appalled at how your customer service has collapsed!
I've been with Meloche Monnex for 30 years. Since TD Bank bought out Meloche, it is like dealing with a low-end insurance company.
This year's renewal, all of sudden they gave you a hundred pages of policy listing what they do not cover including theft and attempting theft.
Yet most critical info about dwelling amount is not given to clients.
Called their customer service, waited for 2 hours to get answered. Very poor customer service.
The agent was trying to sell your policy saying this and that not included.
On top, for the same house, their record can be changed that you do not have certain items. A tactic that TD has to pay the occurrence.
Agents are not pleasant to speak to. One agent just hangs up on me when I ask for clarification of the policy.
Do not give TD Insurance your business, I've never experienced such horrible customer service. Just complete disrespect to the paying customer, the executives at this company are greedy.
The wait times are mind-boggling, to the point where it's approaching 2 hours on hold and you just give up. It's like this every time you call, the worst wait times I've ever experienced any company in any industry.
On my car insurance they also somehow put my sister's accident on my policy and had overcharged me a total of $900 before I caught it. I had to battle with them to get them to admit it was their fault and to give me a refund, but they would only give $300. They literally stole $600 from me in my opinion, what a bunch of scumbags.
Complete joke of an insurance company. STAY AWAY!
Back and forth to agents, cut off, having to start over and over again in the queue. I'm not exaggerating: It took 2 hours to speak with an agent who then spent over 3 hours to set up a policy. He would ask one question then put me on hold for 30 minutes then repeat, repeat.
After I gave the agent my banking information, the agent said I would receive an email within an hour with my policy info. It's been three days and nothing. I have no actual proof of policy. I tried setting up an account online, but I don't exist in their system.
So, TD, do I have a policy or not? I guess I can look forward to another entire day of my life on the phone to find out.
And the music! The same horrible music played over and over again endlessly I wanted to blow my brains out....
Why is there no option for Zero Star rating?
Phone disconnects. Not able to email or have a callback. Chat line does not help only sends a phone number to call (same number).
Canadians pay, on average, approximately $20 per month in tenants insurance. Do you rent or plan to rent a property and want to reduce insurance costs? We will help you get a cheap tenant insurance quote today.
The worst insurance company to get in touch with - always on-hold - need to find another insurance company with good communication!
I have been with TD insurance for many years. Unfortunately, had a very bad experience with home insurance renewal this year. The document was sent and was not properly updated. Staff who answered the call said will send an email to confirm the policy update and never receive an email. Make several calls and waiting time to speak to a person took extremely long (over 60min to 90min).
TD Meloche Monnex should take a look at these reviews. This is the worst and longest time I've waited on the phone and on their online chat agents - a minimum of 2 hours! I wait for hours on the phone and put on queue onto the chat lines to start as "you are number 13 in the queue". Been with this insurance company for more than 14 years. I did not pay attention to paying higher premiums because I thought this company deserves my loyalty, now I can not get a hold of agents. No agents on the phone anymore. What is going on with this insurance business that you can not reach an agent to help you out? I shopped around and found out that with almost the same coverage, I am paying a premium of almost 50% less which makes sense in this challenging economic crisis. I wish I did this earlier.
I don't want to renew with them and call hundreds of times and on hold forever. They mailed me many statements and charge a late fee every time, but I want to cancel with them earlier, but never get connected!!! Ridiculous!

Tried to get a answer why my claims free home insurance increased by 30% and was told on phone no one can help me at this time! What? Are you kidding me?
