Review of the Aviva, Health insurance:

Abysmal service - avoid!

1
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.

Excellent, quick response

At work we have a Health policy with Aviva. I recently had to make a claim on it. Once the paperwork was across to them a customer representative called me to confirm my details and go through my claim. Once this was done I had a further call back in the afternoon saying that they need my notes to process the claim. This was done within 2 days, the next day they called to say that everything had gone through and that I could go ahead. They provided an excellent service within their Health Insurance department.

Simplest claims process really helped when I most needed it!

I was flooded by a burst water main on my road. This was the first time this had happened, so naturally I was a bit distressed to say the least. Fortunately Aviva really helped me by making the process of claiming as easy as possible. I think having a claims manager that was responsible for my claim really helped, no need to get somebody new up to speed every time Reviewed on: 27th October 2014
