TD Insurance Home Insurance Reviews

I was feeling disappointed after being told that their loyalty discount disappears after 3 years (after the current year 12% rate increase). Claims-free for 40 years. However, after reading some of the horrible experiences from other customers, I am extremely thankful that I have never had to deal with them on a claim. Not sure if the telephone support people are insurance agents but seem to have limited insurance knowledge regarding what is covered in the policy.

They are useless and deliver bad service. Constantly raising rates even between terms. Not happy at all.

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.

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.

I would highly not recommend this company for any insurance. I was with this company for 10 years. I had my auto and home insurance with them. I was paying double the amount for insurance. They don't recognize the value of customer and their business . They just need their money. I am happy i moved out from them and learnt my lesson. I did a little bit of shopping and got a way less insurance. My best advice to all is do your shopping for insurance before every renewal it will save you a lot of money. I would not recommend td insurance for anyone.
Thank you.

When I bought my house 5 years ago I went with TD because the last owners were with them and the price seemed reasonable $90/month. Within 2 years they raised my premiums to almost $200/month and I have never filed a claim. I lost my job 2 years ago and was having a very difficult time making ends meet. I called all of my creditors and explained my situation and they were all willing to cut me some slack and give me a few extra days, including my mortgage lender. But not TD. I called to tell them that I would be ONE DAY LATE! and they told me that if I was ever late again that they would cancel my policy and I would be liable for the balance owed. Recently there was a leak in the roof and it took them a week to send an inspector. I was told that if the leak was due to the roof being in bad shape they would not cover it, but if it was due to shingles being blown off the roof they would cover the cost of the resulting damage, but not before I paid a $1000 deductible. They called me yesterday to tell me that they couldn't help me because according to the report there were no shingles missing, despite the fact that I pointed them out to the inspector!!!

I got my insurance renewal, with $800 additional for sewer backup (and only up to $15000 with $2000 deductible. The ice damming coverage is $130 a year. Are you kidding me?

Also, a half duplex rental property for $342 per year, just for sewer backup?

TD raised my rates to the point where it was 15% less to switch to Square One insurance. Square one has better service and are reasonable human beings to speak with one the phone or by email. I cancelled the PAP program with TD Insurance first, paid the balance owing out on my Visa, and told them I once my policy was up, I was switching companies.

They made a mistake on the amount they charged to my Visa and rather than tell me, they just took one more PAP payment off 2 weeks later. This caused my account balance to dip below $5000 and huge fees incurred. The branch credited the fees and reversed the unauthorized PAP. When confronted, TD Insurance said they had every right to debit my account even thought I revoked their access. They had the nerve to charge me a late payment penalty (even though they miscalculated the amount I paid out on my visa) which I reluctantly paid to get rid of them.

Finally my policy expired and I signed up with Square One but I get a letter in the mail saying I owe $815 as my previous policy automatically renewed. I called right away to say I didn't consent to renewal and to reverse it. I was told I would have to pay a cancellation fee! Cancellation fee for an expired policy ? They claim they mailed a renewal notice. I didn't see one and I have every document from them in a folder going back 7 years.

They cannot show me any place in my policy that says the policy automatically renews. I'm currently still fighting with them over $120 cancellation fee and they are threatening to send their claim to collections.

You need to have trust in your insurance company. They were dishonest with me, broke rules, and went to unscrupulous measures to extort every possible dollar they could creatively justify taking. Measures very similar to that of a con artists or a telephone scam. It almost seems the company aim is to hire these sorts of employees and train them to use these tactics to increase revenues. The company is completely unreasonable. Not a quality you want in an insurance company. I have never had a claim. My deductible is so high, the only time I would is if my house burned down which statistically speaking is very unlikely. They should be treating me like a king for giving them 60- 90/month over the past 10 years.

My home insurance with NO claims has almost tripled within the last three years. i had my roof redone in 2012 they said it would save me some monies, instead right after that the rates started increasing. The first increase was the year before the flood in Calgary. When I called there was no explanation except they were getting in line with other insurance companies. The next year the flood in Calgary happened, I live in Calgary I was told it was not because of the flood, as insurance companies here in alberta do not cover natural disasters, the province has to pick up those costs. True. So why? No answer this time, was told a manager would call me back. Never happened. This year I see another increase of of almost $300 a year. I have yet to call as I am so pissed off its ridiculous. I have been with this company two vehicles and home insurance for over 15 years. No more I am quite confident I will find insurance with the same or better coverage for what I am paying for now.
