Beware of Crooks - Stay Away!

1 out of 5 stars
Had a collision claim 5 months ago, Was very bad experience with TD, they tend to prolong the matter intentionally to pay as little as possible, requested to escalate the claim but the internal escalation is not done effectively. I had to contact a lawyer and after he wrote them they resolved the claim and covered all expenses 2 days later. Their operation is no different than a scam artist.
My own experience was on 2 occasions TD insurance made a charge on my account before the agreed-upon date thus leading to an NSF charge from them. On each of those occasions, they on their own suggested a new day for taking out but still, they were inconsistent with the days. What I can't seem to understand is why the inconsistency and if this was pecuiliar to me. Anyways, I am just got a few months left and switching for sure. My fear is I hope when I cancel they don't hit my account again.
Did you know that on average Ontario drivers with good driving records pay $1,805/year in auto insurance? Is your insurance rate higher? Get a free car insurance quote and start saving today.
I just wanted new insurance papers as mine expired, never received them... Therefore, I tried to call without any luck. Even by email, no luck whatsoever.
Know that if you are assigned an adjuster with TD Car insurance then they are most likely going to leave you high and dry. They will most definitely not pick up your calls, respond to your emails even if you really need to get in touch with them or get back to you anytime soon. Be prepared to pay more for car rentals as they will not investigate the issue timely. (Once the issue has been passed down to your leasing company, TD will do nothing for you even if the investigation hasn’t been completed. Not even cover car rentals. They also won’t give you an update or provide you with a status other then “we are investigating” - this for us has gone on for 4 weeks now). You can count on TD car insurance to make a bad situation even worse and mess with your mental and financial wellbeing. Definitely not worth being a client.
The invoice said 30 days. Customer service says 4-6 weeks. It's been 7 weeks and no refund. Absolutely ridiculous. This company is so unorganized.
So, 2017 I was parking at my friends driveway which is on a curve and I ended up hitting the bumper of a rental Yaris on the curb. That caused damage on the plastic screws on the bumper and the rental company had to replace the whole thing. I called TD Insurance to ask them how it WOULD work if I use them to repair but I ended up using my Visa insurance because it would be cheaper for me. Anyway, after a while, I left TD Insurance to go for another company and now I was asking for a quote for a third party and they say I have an accident at fault on my record from 2017! These people put on the file that I was at fault for an accident?! I didn’t even use them at that time and my insurance quote is doubling because of that. Do not go with these guys, they’re useless and don’t care about customers.
I bought my first new vehicle in 30 years and unfortunately had an accident 10 weeks later... Electronic emails constantly but not a single person to ever talk to. Hours of wait times on the phone and days without a return call. Then the company goes behind my back and authorizes repairs without calling me. They authorize 39 thousand in repairs on a 48 thousand dollar vehicle, not including mechanical costs and want me to wait 3 months for delayed GM parts plus a month for repair including the replacement of 4 of 6 airbags. This company plans on spending a total of 15 thousand more to repair the vehicle than it would cost to replace new. This company is a complete joke to deal with and forget talking to anyone. Now after 40 years of driving with my first accident claim I understand why they are rated by the public as a total disaster. TD, you don't deserve your one out of 5 stars rating.
Terrible customer service. They auto-renewed my policy (without my permission) after I moved out of the province. When I then called to cancel my insurance, everything seemed fine. I then began receiving letters and phone calls threatening that if I didn't continue to pay my premium they would cancel my insurance. Great! I wanted my insurance cancelled, which I why I called you and cancelled. After hours and hours on hold on my third call with them, I am eventually told that I owe a $114 in cancellation fees. I refuse to pay it. End of story. You renewed my policy without my permission after I moved out of province and refused to cancel my service when requested, threatened with letters and phone calls, and now you want more of my money? Not going too happy. BBB claim opened. Happy to take you to small claims court. 5 years as a customer with zero claims and this is how TD Insurance will treat you. I highly recommend avoiding this company.
If you have a good driving record in AB, you should pay around $110/month (women - $105/month and men - $113/month). Do you overpay? Get an Alberta car insurance quote to start saving.
Avoid getting auto insurance with TD insurance as they will rob you of the way that you will not know. There Cancellation Fees are too high. I was having the insurance with them and then I cancelled it. The insurance lasts only for 2 to 3 days. They never contacted me for any cancellation charges or anything like that. They never emailed or mailed me any invoice. Now after a year, I received a phone call from a collection company that I owe C$580 as a result of the cancellation of the Auto Insurance a year ago. I left shock that how it could be C$580 for a couple of days insurance. I called TD Insurance and the agent told me that it includes insurance plus cancellation charges plus the late fee to add up to C$580. I asked him why the TD insurance never contacted me for a period of one year and they direct send the case to a collection. The agent said that TD has contacted me but I am still wondering when and how they contacted me. Now I have to pay these unsolicited charges. AVOID TD AUTO OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF INSURANCE THEY ARE ROBERS.

They play the waiting game and dodge communications to avoid paying claims! Horrible human beings hired as representatives and "managers" who don't care and seem to be incentivized to rip you off. I had a simple not-at-fault accident and they wasted months of back and forth, switched me to another representative after mine had gone unresponsive for months and now claim the one year is passed and that I will not be paid what I was due. Go anywhere else but here is you want to be "covered"... can't call it coverage if they don't pay!
