Meloche Monnex (TD Insurance) Home Insurance Reviews

Raised rates by 25 % for no logical reason; no claims

And everytime they renew they reduce coverage of one thing or another.

Terrible communication and customer contact

AND they don't care!

Mine increased by 45% due to floods in Calgary and Ice damage in Toronto. I am currently with TD Home/Auto and they said they have increased everyone's from 25% up to 72% from last year. My increased was another $200 per year. BTW, I never had a single claim in all my years of owning a home. As home insurance is not regulated "from the manager", they are able to spread their loss across Canada.

I do not live in or near Calgary or Toronto and I am being penalized so they can recover their loss! Definitely looking at other insurance companies and I am spreading the word around to my friends and family!

After many years of paying premiums and nary a claim, this company denied my insurance application when my home became a rental property. The claimed that the denial was based on a "gap in coverage" when they were the ones who cancelled the insurance against my verbal request. They asked me many personal and unnecessary financial questions, kept me on hold and in the dark, literally for days before informing me that my application had been denied. Luckily, I found a much better, more reasonably priced policy at Morgex. I will tell everybody for as long as I live how this organization treats loyal clients. The best comment that I can give is that one of the staff, Angela, was quite lovely and tried to be helpful.

Last year my basement was damaged due to sewer back up and water seeped in from foundation due to sump pump failure. Claim was denied. Only few clients were impacted so TD denied all the claims. Now TD is covering same type of claims in Calgary and High River only due to media pressure and their competitors are covering claims.

I should have gone to media at that time. I need to find a good lawyer and file a publice interest petition against this organization who changes it's stand on daily basis.

Two weeks after submitting our claim, no adjuster has visited our home post flood in Sunnyside, Calgary to assess the damage. I have called several times and there has been no clear answers. After another hour on the phone today, I found out that no adjuster has been assigned to our claim yet and they have no timeline when our home might be inspected. Simply a customer service nightmare being passed around from one administrator to the next with no clear answers or insight. " I will send an email to my manager, who will send an email to their manager, and hopefully someone from that team will contact you in 24 hours..." Not a reassuring phrase.

TD Meloche Monnex denied our claims for sewage backup because of a loophole in their policy. This is going to probably be the ONLY heartless corporation that would actually rather see their clients homeless and forced into poverty (yet probably still try and get a substantial premium from them). There are no words to describe the ludicrous actions and unfathomable lack of support to their customers. As if the Alberta flood disaster wasn't hard enough, now being the only person on the block in High River being denied claims is heartbreaking. Thanks for nothing TD Meloche Monnex. I challenge EVERYONE to swtich their insurance provider away from these corporate scum bags who would rather take a 500 million profit then help those who provide to their profit. This is just absolutely disgusting and the overwhelming negative shaming from the public on social media will let everyone know they do not work for you, they only want your money and run.

Today marks 2 months since my home flooded due to a pipe rupture and I am still living in a hotel. I am still awaiting the damage quote so that I can go ahead and start hiring contractors. Spent the first 2 weeks calling my assigned "agent" 2 or 3 times a day seeking help and answers to questions, left voicemails, and have literally spoken/received emails from said agent 3 times in 2 months. This service is not just this agent. The morning of the flood I was given the name and number of my agent, only to discover on my own through multiple calls, that indeed this person was on holiday. I was told another person would call me.... that never happened. Finally, my current agent reached out. That was easily a couple of days after the flood. I will likely switch all my insurance (house, car, truck, side x side, 2 snowmobiles) to another company as soon as I get a payout.

Had a renters insurance policy for a few days with them, the quote they gave me to start was several dollars a month less than what they ended up charging me. Found an other company that gave me renters insurance for half of what TD would. Ended up cancelling the TD insurance yet was charged a 69$ cancellation fee I was never told about. They wouldn't negotiate at all on charging me this. Would not recommend this company to anyone. There's going for profits then there's gouging people at every opportunity. Seems TD is the latter.

My home insurance premium has doubled from 2011 to 2015, with no claims made ever to them. VERY unprofessional customer service. They are not recommended!

We have had Meloche Monnex ever since they took over Liberty Mutual (+10 years) and in recent years the home policy has been creeping up and even though we never had claims. Every time I called, seemed they change their coverage and/or gave excuses on taxes/ gov't changes. I had always not bothered to look around. Now, I finally did and got much better quotes elsewhere and including Auto. I suggest to shop around when your renewal takes place.
