They were extremely fussy about the use of the courtesy car, but there was damage to one of my headlamps which was not there when the car was taken for repair. I tried several.

Car Insurance Blunder...by me

5
Made a few errors when changing my car, instead of taking advantage and using the situation to charge me extra as many companies would have done, their customer service advisor explained the best way to solve the problem, and did this for me. Extremely informative and friendly advice for such a big company. Reviewed on: 29th September 2017

great price and reliable insurer

always competitive and good reliable insurers Reviewed on: 29th September 2017

Even they know they're terrible

1
When our car was scratched by a van, Aviva took it away for repairs. Some weeks later I discovered that they'd declared it a write-off and sent it to the scrapyard. Over a period of months I had to spend hours phoning and e-mailing Aviva, their agents and the scrapyard before we got our car back (still not repaired). At least one of the many people I had to deal with admitted they'd screwed up and sent us £150 compensation. Reviewed on: 29th September 2017

Cheaper than comparison sites

Went to Aviva as they are cheaper than comparison sites and easy to update info Reviewed on: 29th September 2017

Good renewal quote

4
It is time for me to renew my car insurance, and as usual I get a quote from my existing supplier. I always do my shopping, since as today, in my opinion, there is zero differentiation between them; they are commodities. Going always to the cheapest makes sense. However, this time I was impressed to see that my current supplier, Aviva, increased my insurance by an amount that keeps it being the best price... I knew the price would go up, insurance costs have gone up this year, but I was expecting to get hit with a big raise and having to change... It is refreshing to see an insurance firm that does not play the game of "quote a big raise in the renewal, and hope the customer renews blindly"... I was pretty pleased by that!
