Meloche Monnex (TD Insurance) Home Insurance Reviews

TD is currently using lower end contractors to drive down rebuild costs in Fort McMurray. Been fighting with them for 6 months to get the costs of a rebuild with a builder of my choosing. Very discouraged with the tactics they have been using to cut there own costs at my expense, I do not need to deal with the many problems that will result if I use one of their preferred builders. TD's preferred builders have nothing but past legal issues or little to no experienced.

In 2005 I put in place coverage for my rental property in Fort McMurray which included Additional Living Expenses. In July following the evacuation due to the wildfires I submitted a claim for loss of rental income; which was denied as ALE wasn't in place. Sometime in 2014 an employee of TD Insurnace changed my policy without my knowledge or consent and dropped ALE coverage. I am in the process of appealing this; but am not too hopeful for a successful resolution.

Their customer service is really rubbish, poor performance, they failed to inform me that I need to call them urgently after closing the ownership of my property and now refuse to insure me. Really poor, had they told me that I had to call immediately I would have. I will never use them again and will pull everything out.

Being a loyal TD Bank customers, we opted for TD Home Insurance and they have cancelled our Home Insurance without giving any notice or call and would not provide is with a new quote and the state they dont wish to provide us any more Home Insurance Service due to non payment. To start with it was a pre-auth payment just like the one we have set for auto insurance.Since the time we received their first mail(which according to TD is not the first mail) we have been trying to reach them to resolve. The Customer Service Rep & Manager were rude and wouldnt help us. Finally after a long struggle they issued a new quote and when we called back to discuss they said its rejected as we have nonpayment history. Am surprise how much they dont know their customers. We were warned by friends but still went ahead with TD Insurance and today we are worried and shocked at our state. TD has no quality,respect for customers and cant be trusted any more. I wonder if i should bank with them anymore. They have put us in deep trouble and wouldnt help. I received no earlier correspondence from them on the cancellation and they have put us in risk. Would be great if we receive help in escalating this matter higher up and getting a resolution.

These guys have terrible and inefficient customer service. They lie to you and tell you something will only take a couple minutes that stretches into the range of an hour or more. They don't have their act together to actually just process your file, but put you on hold constantly while they try and figure out what they are supposed to be doing. They don't follow your request to communicate by email, and despite keeping you on the phone for an hour, they fail to disclose all of the charges that you are liable for but because you've entered a policy, they treat it as an open right to generate charges they failed to disclose. They have no respect when you tell them that they can't call you on your phone during the day because of your occupation. I am a teacher and I had to block their phone number because I can't be taking phone calls while I'm teaching, and then they refused to email me to ask me what they needed and then just started filing charges of $50 every two months, and no email explanation of the charges. They send it through as an adjustment on the statement which really isn't explaining that they intend to charge you an extra $50 every two months over and above the insurance you are already paying for. They are a make work institution that can't be trusted.

I have had td home and auto insurance for 10 years with meloche monnex. I recently installed the nest home monitoring system with integrated smoke/carbon monoxide detectors and 2 way security cameras around the perimeter of my home. I called td insurance for the home security discount. I was told no they only consider traditional third party systems for the discount. I advised that was unfair. I wanted to talk to a supervisor and they said that due to it being a Saturday and they were short staffed, they do not handle calls like mine on Saturday....what the heck? I guess I am not very important as a client. I would not advise using them due to very poor customer service.

After 11 years with TD. Meloche for home and autos and paying $5000/yr I had a wind and hail claim on my roof that was leaking and was only ten years old. The claims adjuster literally lifted his hand over his head holding his camera and took pictures. Brought the camera down and said, "ya this isn't insured" and left.

The only silver lining is Scotia is about $1000 per year less!

Never go TD, no wonder they use a Shakespeare actor, they are only pretending to offer insurance.
