Poor customer service

by Shyam on Oct 9, 2020
1.5 out of 5 stars

Most TD insurance customer service agents are rude and poor in services. A couple of times I disconnected the call due to the way he was talking. When I told him he should talk in a better way, he told me it's your choice to talk or not. Another point is about the quote. There is almost double the amount of difference when you quote online and when you call the agent. I got a quote online for 800$/year and when I call the agent to buy the quoted 1500$/year without changing any conditions. When I asked them why does it happen, he said I don't know and I can't do anything.

Underquoting

by ConnedbyTD on Jun 28, 2020
1 out of 5 stars

TD Insurance is definitely an unethical company. On my first call for a quotation, I got a fairly low price for home insurance pending home inspection. After a home inspection, they did not call or write. Close to my start date, I called and found out that they have more than doubled the quoted price and the only reason is that the cost of rebuilding if needed is higher than they had quoted. I believe that they should have known all this during the initial quote as they had my house address, house size, roof material, etc. The home inspection did not turn out any discrepancies to our initial conversation. I believe they purposefully underquoted. These are bait tactics that prevented me from shopping and checking quotes from other companies. TD Insurance is definitely unethical. I will not start my policies with them as I can't trust them to keep their promises if an unfortunate event is to happen. PS. Also, they promised to call back within 24 hours with more explanation about the reasons for the policy change but never did. That was more than 7 days ago.

They quote you one price.. then you have to call them to confirm the price. Lo and behold, the price goes up to $700 yearly! ($1300 to $2000) what a total scam! No thanks TD! I am totally disgusted.

Deceptive quote process

by JasonW on Feb 22, 2019
1 out of 5 stars

I signed up for a tenant policy. You can start obtaining a quote online but at a certain point, you are required to phone in and deal with an agent. The agent I dealt with, while very polite, did not voluntarily disclose some fairly major exclusions. These were only included in the policy details after signing up for it. Among the major exclusions, I assumed were covered were an earthquake, flooding, and water backup. I phoned back as soon as I received the policy details by mail and canceled (1 week after the policy was initiated). I was told there would be a charge almost equivalent to 1 month premium to cancel despite the fact I was only seeing the details of the policy for the first time and had had it for less than a week. When I asked for an email confirmation that the cancellation had gone through I was told they did not have the ability to do this despite the fact that they had sent me confirmation when I signed up for the policy. It is clearly a deliberate effort to be non-transparent to not disclose the details of the policy until after you've signed up already. I later found a quote that was a fraction of the price that covered the major exclusions in this policy. I should have done more research. Just glad I did not have to try to make a claim.

horrible stressful

We had a wind and water claim started. We had this open for about a month after calling in and took forever to get someone to come to our home.Adjuster was rude,unorganized never answered phone judged everything as though she was paying out of her own pocket, very cheap outfit! Dropped us at the end said if we didn't come up with money to pay for sheathing and to add over inflated price x2 the price the contractor wanted to put in they would not proceed. We are talking over 6,000 plus 1,000 deductible or pay us out so they could wipe their hands of any liability as they weren't paying .We didn't have that money in the budget and at first were told everything was covered. No we had to take the payout and they automatically deduct the 1,000 deductible and even though they have a quote are going through with a fine comb to trim costs. At the end the million dollar roofer who works for them is making a killing even tried to make private deals and get us to approve work just so he could move on. I offered to purchase the wood to afford the repairs and flat out no was the answer..If you are here looking at reviews take the money and find a small time carpenter or company if not in an emergency like us. What a disaster never again! Run stay far away from this outfit cheap rates but you will pay for it in the end.

Td insurance on a cottage

by Matt on Oct 3, 2017
1 out of 5 stars

I recently got a quote for insurance on a cottage that I was in the process of buying. Everything seemed to go fine. On the day of closing, when I called to activate the insurance they told me that whoever I was talking to the first time made several errors with the quote and that not only would they not be able to give me the quoted price but they couldn't insure the cottage at all because it wouldn't be profitable for them to do so. Truly terrible service.

Incorrect charge prices

by Zahid Zekria on Mar 10, 2017
1 out of 5 stars

Called to modify my existing home insurance policy. I was given a quote and a grace period to shop around for a better premium. Shopped around and found it was best to stick with TD. Called back to accept the new premium and was told that the previous quote was incorrect, and was given a much more expensive price, which was not the cheapest I found. Was told that the grace period was over and that the new premium prices were going into effect. Asked what the cancellation fee before the next payment would be, was given a number. Changed insurance providers and when I called back to cancel they tried to charge me over 3 times as much.

Overall very frustrating to deal with and phone agents are either incompetent or are lying to you.

Poor Customer Experience...

by RMG on Mar 2, 2017

Online quote system doesn't work properly, chat was useless, and eventually I spoke to live agents who were not helpful at answering questions. If trying to get a quote is this hard, what would it be like if one ever had to make a claim.

No signature or agreement

by mattinseoul@yahoo.ca on Apr 2, 2015
1 out of 5 stars

Contacted TD regarding insuring 3 properties(2 owned by Fiancee and 1 by myself) Received good quotes. Decided to go with insurance, issued debit information. Then quote changed. The back and forths continued hectically because after the original quote, I cancelled my previous policy, and was now without insurance. After reading several things online, and after I had my quote baited and switched on me, I decided not to follow up.

Expecting paperwork, or a follow up thought nothing of it. Despite the fact that they never actually spoke to my fiancee(ie owner of the properties) , any type of signature, or anything.... they just started taking money. Over $2000 for insurance we already had elsewhere.

Ridiculous annual increases

by kimspearman@hotmail.com on Feb 5, 2015
2 out of 5 stars

Similar to other stories I have seen on here, when I started out with TD home insurance in 2010 my policy was $437 for the year, which by 2014 had increased to $ 1485 for the year. As an example - from 2012 to 2013 it increased by $266, despite never having filed a claim and no changes in the policy.
I am almost certain I'll see yet another increase when I get the renewal papers sometime in the next month, but I am DONE! When comparing insurance with many of my neighbours we are paying $600 -$700 more annually. It is time to shop around, and say good bye to these thieves.
