Put in a collision claim for my car 2 days ago. It almost seems like I'm inconveniencing them by making the claim as I've heard nothing back from them and in fact it seems the expectation is that I contact them and spend hours on hold waiting to talk to anyone before I get any info. I would have hoped for a call to arrange a vehicle inspection by now at the very least.

Invested $17,600 Aviva has taken $13,954 in fees After 12 years if I want my cash back they will take an additional $10k withdrawal fee From my great investment: I lost over $10k AVIVA take over $24k in fees. Worst. Deal. Ever.

Aviva is my worst nightmare. I wouldn't recommend this company to my worst enemy. Customer Care is non existent. It seems they can only make payments, including pension payment into a British Bank account, therefore if you are living abroad and only have a foreign bank account relating to the country you are living in, then you could have a problem. Of course they will send you a cheque, but British cheques paid into a foreign bank account take forever to clear, and that's if your foreign bank will accept them in the first place. My ordeal has been ongoing for eighteen months now and all because I live abroad and have a foreign bank account. According to Aviva it seems I am the only expat who has a pension with Aviva who lives abroad. So if you want a peaceful retirement living abroad, and don't have a British Bank account, then my advice is not to deal with Aviva.

Trying to cancel future automatic renewal of motor policy because premium increased too much despite 10 yrs NCD. Can’t get help by telephone or email. Telephone contact not available for cancellation of renewal. Email messages gobbledygook. My Bank have agreed not to pay if Aviva seek payment. The “dead parrot “ sketch may come to mind for older readers.

Online accounts ok, but my account was not set up correctly by the system so I can not now access the online portal, and you are unable to speak to a human being to sort out the issue.

My premium has home up on first renewal by £60 pounds even though we haven’t been using our cars through the pandemic. Looking at the comparisons sites Aviva is around £200 outside the market average. I spoke to the call Centre and they stated that is the price. Looks like Aviva are profiting from customers who do not shop around, no doubt this will stop once the regulator looks how this market behaves and stop this unscrupulous business practice. Ok balance I have decided to remove all my policies I have with Aviva

I've got my pension with Aviva. I'm trying to move it to another company. It's been an uphill battle. It's 4 months later now, and still no success. Very frustrating. Correspondence very slow and unclear.

Customer service is appalling and the company actively condone fraud against customers by their employees and those employed by them. If you believe they have not acted correctly with you obtain a Subject Data Access Request ( details on web ) that will show you exactly how they have treated you and the service is free. Documents I obtained show that they only authorise the minimum work required to re-instate the property and ignore damage even more serious if not reported by you. New for old replacement is made on a like for like basis which is much lower than the claims made in policy documents. If they use Cunningham Lindsey beware because they actively participate in fraud to reduce the impact of claims to the insurers and in my experience manipulate survey results to achieve the desired outcome, in short both companies are nothing more than crooks.

Very disappointing service from Aviva - involved in an accident and Aviva spent 6 weeks saying they were unable to get hold of the 3rd party insurer for them to claim liability. I was then told that they were contacting the wrong insurance company all this time. The 3rd party liability was confirmed 6 weeks after the accident as soon as they contacted the correct insurance company. This error meant I had no access to a courtesy car and Aviva couldn't have been less interested. Now Aviva are trying to argue that the engine damage is not related to the accident, which is a complete joke, as it is clear that the impact had compromised the coolant pump and engine pump, which both failed within hours of the accident. Wish I had opted for and insurer that would have had my back after this unfortunate accident. Pay more and get proper insurance cover, is my advice.

Great company at promising they'll always be there for you. In practice their simple garbage. Avoid at all costs, there's better out there. 29 year customer!

Unbelievable been with them for years! They increased my policy and i called up to ask why and they litteraly had no reason. i said and proved i had better quotes from similar insurance companies and they wouldn't even match. So disapointing that a company is not willing to keep loyal customers who have never claimed. I will not be using them again!

An Aviva customer has reversed into my car and damaged it. I have chased and chased politely as has my insurance company and tomorrow it will be 8 weeks to the day since the incident has happened. They still haven't agreed the work to be done and i am still without my car, through no fault of my own. Frustrated beyond belief.

Being pestered with mailboxes and red tape after taking out a car policy . Problem with being made to contact my previous insurer to obtain a letter confirming my no claim period despite sending them the renewal notice showing it.Took them almost 5 weeks to say it was not sufficient.Once upon a time insurance companies used to communicate with each other. Now you are expected to TRY and contact them by telephone holding on for ever at a premium rate.Then speaking to a person with poor diction. Aviva are not alone.A better company when they were Norwich 'Onion'.

I claimed a third party accident. aviva was least concerned to contact third party. instead they kept telling me i should get the car repaired as claim against policy. I had to run around myself and contacted third party who agreed to do the repairs. worst experience with this insurance company. not recommended.
