Sneaky, hidden clauses,

1
Having paid a very expensive premium and specified jewellery when house was broken into with alarm on they declined claim because the jewellery wasn't in a safe They employ OSG who went to great lengths to uncover any thing they could so they could decline Reviewed on: 23rd January 2017

Will not recomend to any one.

Rip off!

I have paid for 5* cover for more than 20 years and in all this time I have been unable to make a single claim. There is a always a clause/reason on their part every time I have applied for not being eligible to. They send out a booklet out with very basic information / details about the claims process. Additionaly they charge a very expensive administration fee of (£23.75) for no changes to the policy, and for giving them your service & renewing your policy annually. This is mandatory even without any changes to your policy/paper work. A big mistake & very costly to me at a stressful time when I needed help. Reviewed on: 16th January 2017

Good value

We got a quote online for our flat, contents only, which was significantly less than other quotations we had found. It was easy to quote though our walls are not standard construction and I did find it difficult to find anyone in aviva who seemed to understand the statement of fact. Not needed to claim yet so I suppose time will tell if any good Reviewed on: 24th December 2016

Good cover, good price, helpful staff.

I review home insurance every year and have been happy enough with the product and service provided by Aviva that I have stuck with them for a few years now. The paperwork is clear and I've been happy when dealing with them on the phone to discuss renewals. I have no experience of their claims process. Reviewed on: 24th December 2016

Very friendly
