Avoid aviva

Never go near aviva involved in a accident they will not help you their solicitor proddow mackay are a joke they don’t no how to send emails with attachments and this is coming from the manager Adam Taylor they have kept the cctv and Andy howie thinks it’s ok to drive around with your main beams on and overtake any cars on any road never use aviva.

It states as Unsecured Loan in your Credit Score

1
Are you thinking to get a car insurance from Aviva? Think twice if you will pay it monthly as they will treat it as “unsecured loan” rather than insurance and THIS will give you really bad effects on your Credit Score. It happen to me! Even you pay it off in two months, that label “unsecured loan” will stay months in your record. Especially when you are thinking to get mortgage etc, Be careful with their product!!

Appalling

1
Numerous policy mistakes. I was lied-to on many occasions about a false claim made against me by a cyclist and even though Aviva had NO EVIDENCE, they paid the claim then disqualified my no claims bonus under a small print clause known as Subrogation. This also corroborated the fake police report made by the cyclist which is currently in the court proceedings pipeline. THIS ORGANISATION IS A DISGRACE TO THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY Reviewed on: 9th February 2021

Aviva Shame on you

1
Aviva have proved to be very expensive. Please check out other companies before renewing. My mother had her renewal this year which had gone up £200 since last year. She has a clean driving record, no reported accidents and has her house insurance through this company. I phoned Aviva to say that £700 was far too expensive and the AA along with other companies were quoting £309.00. I asked if they could match this and they point blank said that the don't price match under any circumstances. I asked why it had gone up over £200 this year and he said that there could be over 100 plus reasons, so too many to talk about. My mother has been a customer of theirs for many years and I felt this lack of customer care was very very poor. We obviously changed her insurance to the AA who were kind, courteous and very helpful. Aviva did not care about losing a long term customer. Shame on you. Reviewed on: 12th December 2020
