Or take it to an autobody out of city (somewhere that didn't get hail)

What a horrible year for insane weather.

My Lancer got beat up pretty bad. About 25 dents on the hood alone, lots on the roof. I seriously thought my windshield was gonna smash while I was driving. Sounded like I was getting shot with bb guns. F'n crazy! I really hope it's covered.

TD has to have the worst customer service on the planet. If I didn't get a group rate, I would have switched years ago.
Seriously guys. You are calling in a claim an hour after a massive hail storm, and you are upset you are not getting through in 38 seconds? I deal with insurance companies daily, and TD Meloche Monnex is without a doubt the fastest easiest to deal with insurance company out there.

You think they are bad, try Johnson Inc. or Canadian Direct if you think hold times are bad. I literally held with Canadian Direct for 1 hour and 39 minutes one time.

Were those cacti in your garden at the start of the video? Didn't think that they'd survive the winter here (or the summer with days like this!).

agreed...td is the way to go. i switched over to them a year ago when i discovered that they could offer me a rate of $150/mth less than the company that my family had been with for years....with more protection i might add.

Lol, just checked my wife's car, hail dings on the hood, roof, and trunk! The same car that just had half of the body panels replaced and painted when she hit a deer.

This car has had so many body panels replaced it's not even funny anymore.

Obviously this storm was the work of supernatural powers, we need a good ol fashion catholic witch-hunt.

Don't despair, if you know the right "kind" of body man you can make money for your troubles. My SUV got nailed at heritage point a few years ago causing $6500.00 damage. I had a buddy fix it perfectly for $3900.00.

I guess since the word comes from the Biblical city of Sodom where homosexuality was apparentely the sin that caused God to destroy them, you could assume blowjobs were part of that but you're right. Nobody thinks of the term that way anymore.

Gosh darnit ta heck! Went to my car, and the rear plastic convertible window
is torn/broken. Took it in, and it's almost $1,000 to repair. Great.
Have to phone insurance and see if something like this would be covered.

I didn't look closely, as the car was still covered in water when I last saw it,
but hopefully the body survived.

I think a forum witch hunt is all we need. The forums seem a lot more aggressive lately. I think the hockey off-season is driving people mad.

I was parked at the University and one of my driver side mirror got smashed up pretty good, fortunately it was just the mirror and not the entire thing...
