Review of the Aviva, Health insurance:

Abysmal service - avoid!

My broker found me this policy, and I decided to proceed. I contacted them not long after policy started, and after 2 calls, waiting for over 45mins - I opted for a callback, which after a week never appeared. I’m afraid for £175 per month, I used this as a sign that I shouldn’t proceed with the policy so cancelled the DD. 1 month later they wrote asking to me complete a new DD mandate. I wrote back advising of the terrible service, to which they just cancelled the policy. A lucky escape and won’t touch them again either a barge-pole for any other policy.

Linked Common Cold as pre conditon

Please avoid. Linked common cold as pre-condition symptoms when i asked them for referral to specialist as my child was unwell.. From morning i was continuously on phone calls . Just when you think you have insurance to cover you for your family and then they link to such common symptoms. Reviewed on: 16th November 2016

Luckily not had to use it but good to have it as a back up. Time will tell how good they are when it comes to an actual claim Reviewed on: 15th August 2016

Brilliant

Great service from start to finish. Great customer experience on the phone lines. Reviewed on: 13th August 2016

Fantastic health insurance

I'd had health insurance for a while, but since I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer it has really come into its own! There is a dedicated oncology team, and every call and claim has been so easy and straightforward, thank you for making a difficult time much easier Reviewed on: 13th August 2016

great service and even seem to care about the customer !

I have had health insurance with this company for two decades and they have been delightful to deal with , well-trained staff off great advice when switching products and cover and any claims have been dealt with efficiently and promptly Reviewed on: 12th August 2016

Recently claimed for pulling my back

The process for claiming was quite easy, although I was originally told I needed to obtain a letter from my GP for referral. However, I never sent this through as the GP did not provide it as promised, but despite this the claim was paid in full directly to the physiotherapist. No other problems with the claim, great service. Reviewed on: 1st August 2016

Unbelievable

My experience was incredible my auntie has copd and ashma and this company covered everything that needed to be sorted.... Reviewed on: 29th March 2016
