Worst insurance company

Customer support is non-existent. Changed card for auto-renewal and paid bill. A month later policy is cancelled with no notification or communication from TD insurance then they scammed money out of partner to fix the issue of which they still didn’t. Now our rates will be up 3000$ if it’s not fixed.
Terrible people, terrible customer support.
Customer service is awful, they made me cry 2 times ; the time you want to cancel your policy they play with you! I have called them 3 times and cancelled but kept receiving renewal confirmation!!!! Their prices are so high and once you get problem they find reasons not pay you! Do not go with TD
They are monsters.
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.
Like other big corps, TD loves to play games with their customers. They increase the premium excessively every year, since not all customers call back to negotiate the rate, they make $ off those who don't call and negotiate. Hate that game. I hope the annual increase can be regulated by the provincial government.
Wished I would have checked other insurance providers sooner. I have been with TD for 20 years only ever had 1 claim. Every year it goes up. Saved $2000 with another provider with more coverage. When you call you wait 90 min, if you leave a call back number which I did you don’t get a call back. They want you to do everything yourself online. I’m paying for service I don’t want to do their work. I cancelled my vehicle and home insurance and a week later got a bill even higher than the original. Waited 90 min on hold again when representative answered. I told him I got a policy even more money after I canceled I told him they were too expensive, phone wait is ridiculous, and I’m not paying to do it myself online. He hung up on me. I wasn’t rude, they never asked why I cancelled, thought they should know. Guess they don’t need customers.
I’m very grateful for the good service and very responsive TD Insurance advisor, specifically to one employee for assisting me very well.
The purpose of my review is to say “Thank you” to the customer service representative. This lady provided me with an excellent service. Unfortunately, the service she provided became unique. I wish her good luck in her professional career. Also, I wish everyone including myself to meet in our lives more people like her.
I called TD cause they canceled my auto policy (it had already been cancelled 2 weeks without my knowledge) they said they had “no idea why” and then charged me more money to restart the policy then cancelled my home AND auto policy a month after and said I owed $953+$100 for both policies. They rob you blind, DO NOT USE TD INSURANCE FOR AUTO OR HOME!
My adjusters were useless. When our stolen vehicle was stolen and recovered it took adjuster all to find out where vehicle was.
There was no customer service. The adjuster did not know his job and did not care. I called and emailed every day for five days to get an update there was never a response. Had to escalate my call to a manager.
We have been loyal TD Meloche Monnex customers for over 25 years with zero accidents or auto claims. We never needed to use our insurance coverage until we were rear ended through no fault of our own on 3/20/2024. The way our claim was handled by TD Insurance was unethical and extremely frustrating. Our main complaints are:
- TOTAL LOSS - TD declared the vehicle a complete loss on 3/27 based on an estimate that was only 62% of the value of comparable replacement vehicles. I had to spend countless hours to convince them that they needed to re-assess this. Eventually, they did a vehicle tear down and found the extent of damages was supposedly equivalent to 100% of the value of comparable replacement vehicles and declared it a complete loss again on 4/15.
- LOW BALLING - We received completely bogus valuations on 4/2, 4/4, 4/8 and 4/10. Finally, we received a valuation on 4/17 which was 95% the value of comparable replacement vehicles and was an increase of $4600 or 20% higher than their first valuation. We finally agreed with this value so we could move forward with the settlement.
- RENTAL CAR SHENANIGANS - On 3/20, TD told us we didn't qualify for a rental car because we had removed the Grand Touring solution from our policy a few months prior. Because it was a no-fault accident, we did qualify for a rental car. Still, TD tried to tell me it would be up to 2 years to determine who was at fault because the accident occurred in BC while we were insured in AB. The RCMP declared it not our fault the same day, 3/20. It still took TD 3 days of calls before they arranged the rental car for us. Then they kept trying to take the rental car away with each bogus settlement they offered. I'm still fighting with them to reimburse me for rental car expenses from 4/17 to 4/22 more than 2 months after the accident.
- FEAR TACTICS - My son was driving the car when we were rear ended, and TD tried to insinuate repeatedly that we weren't covered at all because he wasn't on the policy. This is untrue, as he had a learner's permit and was covered through our insurance until he receives his Class 5 license.
The only positive was that they handled our medical claim fairly, and we received good medical coverage for 3 months after the accident.
RECOMMENDATION: Never accept the first few offers from your insurance company as they will always low ball you. Spend the time to research what the car and upgrades are really worth (depreciated) so that you can get a fair amount. Don't let them bully and scare you.

I have had nothing but issue after issue with my payments. With customer service. Trying to make me pay multiple months with two payments. I had it fixed and payments went up now once again they’re trying to make me pay two payments. I filed a damage claim back on August 5th. It’s almost been a month and no one has called me or contacted me. Not once. Once my claim is done, I am switching to another company and do not recommend TD to any.
