Appalling customer service

Does this company exist anymore? I can't get through on the phone, my email was sent back saying they don't accept email anymore and the on-line portal isn't working. It really is appalling and I would avoid at all costs. Reviewed on: 11th February 2022

Can never get hold of them

I have doubts that this company actually exists. They never respond to phone calls. There is no email address for them on their site. This is the fourth day of hanging on the phone to them with no answer. I am seriously worried that they disappeared. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2022

Brilliant Service

I have dealt with a number of financial companies over the years but none have come up to the service and quality of Aegon. They are quick to respond to any queries and offer great products. Reviewed on: 18th October 2021
