TD Insurance

by Dan Boudreault on Aug 12, 2022
1 out of 5 stars

19 years with them and we will not be renewing with these clowns. Opened a claim after the wind storm May 22 2022 that swept across Ontario. Our home sustained serious damage. I had 4 no-shows agents and then finally a TD adjuster came on June 15. Still waiting for the claim to see the estimates of the damages. Had 2 different contractors come here and access the damages to see what TD should be covering. The damages totalled over $100K. TD wants to cover $7138. They will nickel and dime you! Don't worry TD, we have hired lawyers to deal with you. This is our first claim. Don't do any business with them!

Why is there no negative star rating?

I have had home insurance with TD for over a decade - car and home. At this time, they have increased premiums annually without any specific explanation or due to any claims made by me, on both policies.
Despite this, I have remained with TD on the assumption that the higher cost to me would be justified by a quality service if and when I do claim.
I made my first claim on both the car and home policies in May 2021.
The car claim was settled quite smoothly and within a reasonable timeframe (6 weeks); no issues there. However, the claim on the home policy has been an altogether nightmarish experience that remains ongoing!
Since making this claim...
- Two assigned claims handlers have gone AWOL without any handoff to a new handler. In both cases, they left unanswered emails and calls and I had to call the call center, as well as write to both the team manager and Complaints dept. to get someone engaged
- (I should have just taken the cash settlement but.... ) I opted to go with the TD-appointed Contractor to carry out the repairs on the assumption that TD has vetted the contractor to ensure reliability and integrity. I also did not want to be managing the repairs and finding my own contractors.
What a mistake!! As yet (12+ months later) the contractor has not completed the work and my claim remains open with TD
- The contractor has sent in subcontractors with a poorly defined scope of work on multiple occasions. One team left my property further damaged and showed little respect for my home and did not respect any Covid protocols (they showed up with 5-6 men to do work in a relatively enclosed space in my home and did not wear masks). Pure negligence (not covering the hardwood floor) that resulted in new damage to my house
- I fired these subcontractors and I am still waiting on compensation from the first subcontractor that they agreed to pay in April 2022 for the extra damage. I have chased them 3 times on this and they simply say they will contact their "head office" and let me know. TD has done nothing to assist on this other than send an email asking them to update me on the status of the compensation
- Despite assigning a PM and Coordinator to manage the repairs, they have failed to properly coordinate the job and failed to even properly inspect a damaged window opening before approving the replacement window to be installed. They are now blaming the window installer for this but the project coordinator was on site when the Window went in. This lack of planning and foresight has delayed the work by many months.
- Following my complaint to TD, the claims team manager is personally handling the claim. As I said, they have done little to resolve the issues (to my knowledge) other than initially trying to defend the complete lack of customer care and unexplained absence by their own team members and sending the odd email to the subcontractor.
- In the interim, they have gone ahead and increased my premium so I have the privilege of paying, even more, $$ to them while this mess continues at my home.
- I'm in the unenviable position of having to pay TD and cant even switch insurers due to the claim remaining open!

Poor Communication - A horrible experience

by Brad Fehr on Jun 9, 2022
1 out of 5 stars

Had our hot water tank spring a leak in our furnace room. Destroyed numerous collectables and personal property not to mention damaging walls and flooring. It's been over 2 and a half months and have no idea what's going on or if my claim is close to resolution. I called yesterday and expressed my feelings on the complete lack of communication and the challenges I've had reaching my "claims specialist" and was told I would be contacted the next day by someone. Guess what, no call... I'm getting fed up with this... Not sure what to do from here... Maybe call a lawyer?

Households in Alberta pay, on average, approximately $60/month in homeowners’ insurance costs. We can help to push these costs even further down. Get a house insurance quote today to start saving today. Rates start at $20/month.

A litany of failure

Like others I recently had major damage occur during the Ontario storm.

TD has done nothing, calls and emails are not returned. We were assigned an emergency contractor for repairs, but they never called or came.

My roof is torn open and trees are still down at front and back, pool leaking 4K ltrs a day - no one at TD cares.

Transferred to 3 different claims advisors in 16 days.

The takeaway is that when there is an emergency TD is going to do nothing to help you. Shop elsewhere.

16 Days since opening claim and unable to talk to claim advisor.

by East Ontario Civilian on Jun 7, 2022
1.3 out of 5 stars

Our house got badly damaged in Mays’ Derecho. I opened a claim the next day since cell towers were damaged. They are so overwhelmed and unorganized that our claim has been assigned and unassigned to multiple agents. I’ve been unable to reach any of those agents after several calls, voicemails and emails. NO ONE has returned my messages. We have questions about our policy that only our representative can give us apparently. I tried escalating our claim and was then transferred to the claims department. I was on hold for 4 hours and 30 minutes then the call got disconnected and hung up on me. I have literally no idea what else to do. I’m so frustrated, we don’t live at home at the moment cause our house was wrecked. I feel absolutely powerless.
If you’re considering TD insurance and your house gets wrecked in a storm along with many others, don’t count on them to do anything for you. It’s been 16 days now and no contact from them.

Worst experience

by William Zhou on Nov 9, 2021
1 out of 5 stars

We had hail damage on the roof and sliding at beginning of July 2021 in Calgary. It cost me 4 months for the process and nothing for repairing started yet and might have to wait for it till next year. How bad management for their vendors in TD! Never has this worst experience in my life. I will not be with TD Insurance forever! If I can, I want to give TD insurance 0 stars...

Worst insurance

by Maya on Nov 8, 2021
1 out of 5 stars

TD is the worst insurance. Really bad customer service. Waited for hours on hold. When you make a claim they never get back to you. When I called had to wait a very long time on hold. They are very unprofessional, I made the same claim three times and they said that they lost the file or they didn’t know the password to get in. I wanted to give zero stars, but the review wouldn’t go through.

Thanks TD

by Naomi Biggar on May 18, 2021

I had my first residential insurance loss recently and from the minute I called TD to notify them of my claim I felt taken care of.

The lady who took my information was extremely polite and professional. We spent no time on the phone at all and my claim was set up and ready to go.

It was about 20 minutes from getting off the phone when my adjuster called. I was surprised as I was told an adjuster would reach out within 24 hours.
Mandy L was my adjuster and I can't say enough good things. She was responsive, professional and so helpful!

Thanks, Mandy for making this experience as good as it gets in this type of situation!

HORRIFIC Customer Service

by Beyond Frustrated on Mar 18, 2021
1 out of 5 stars

TD Employees are trained to only say "I'm sorry" without offering anything else to customers, like myself, who after 18 years of paying claims was bounced around from incompetent agent to agent. Even when I reached their Customer Care department, and assured I would no longer have to wait WEEKS for a response, I waited WEEKS between each call. If you like being placed on holds, never getting an agent to pick up the phone, your emails ignored and the most frustrating claims adjusters, this is the company for you. I have never been treated worse or spent so much time trying to get a claim resolved like I have with TD. I am moving all my business elsewhere.

Are you a condo unit tenant? Remember that neither your condominium corporations' policy nor your landlord's insurance policy protects you as a tenant (3rd part liability, contents, etc.). If you do not have your own insurance policy, get your condominium insurance quote today.

Brutal Service

It has been: 49 days since the loss 24 days since the claim was APPROVED. No estimates. No repairs. Brutal response times.
