Review of the Aviva, Car insurance:

Avoid if returning from abroad

If this is the modern way of dealing with customers, give me a company where you can communicate with humans. I have paid 1 year in advance for my car insurance, while providing evidence of no-claims history. Aviva claim to accept evidence from UK or EU insurance companies. I lived and worked in Belgium since 1983 and was insured to drive there. My Belgian insurance company is legally bound to provide documentation only in official Belgian languages, ie French, Dutch and German. Their document is a form listing all previous claims. The form they gave me has nothing but blank rows because I have had zero claims since I took out the policy with them in 1999. I have sent this, a machine translation of the form plus the company's covering note confirming that I have been involved in NO accidents since the start of the policy, 24 years ago. I have uploaded all this to MyAviva, emailed it, explained several times by email and it seems no human ever examines the file. I started this process long before the requested start of insurance cover. The final straw was receiving another automated request to upload my No Claims Discount form last Sunday morning. This is UK terminology. I can do nothing more than provide evidence of no claims whatsoever in the last 24 years. If Aviva claims to accept evidence from UK and EU insurance companies, this is clearly untrue. I have asked Aviva to confirm acceptability immediately, or reimburse my payment, while I find a proper insurance company that listens to its customers. Still no reply. And in the meantime, Aviva tell me they will cancel my insurance at the end of the month if I don't upload a NCD form, which does not exist in Belgium. Reviewed on: 13th March 2023

Great customer service and were lovely on the phone. Sorted my car out really quickly and the courtesy car. Slightly more expensive than others but you definitely get what you pay for as they were much better than my previous provider. Reviewed on: 11th October 2024
