Aviva Home insurance reviews (204)

Left in tears

1
Aviva make it VERY easy to open a policy and MAKE a payment but NOT so easy to CLAIM once you’re ceiling collapses!!! I am a pensioner with limited mobility and have been waiting weeks to take a bath or shower because Aviva say the quotes for the works are a bit high but have failed to send their own surveyor to assess the considerable damage. Instead they expect me to crawl up 3 flights of stairs to take even more photos so they can assess the damage. To make matters worse, the agent assigned to my claim told me it may take longer due to him having a cold and working from home. Not much consolation to my wife and I who still have NO hot water and NO help from the company who we’ve paid every month for years. I would urge anyone to shop around before using AVIVA. They have left us in tears. Reviewed on: 19th January 2022

Great claims experience

Can't fault Aviva at all. They were easy to contact through the app. Comms slowed down slightly but that was due to a storm so understandable. Paid out extremely promptly so I could get my damaged bathroom repaired. Reviewed on: 10th January 2022

Excellent service and competitive price

Avoid Aviva at all times

Avoid at all time! Not providing cover for cars 10 years old nor even being arsed to provide any quotes! Avoid at all times and file a complaint at [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Absolutely AVOID that cartel and do not give them one little Euro!

Very disappointed

I requested an update when my policy needed review. I didn't receive any updated policy or information on what was covered. Instead I received a bill. When I called to request details of my coverage, I was then charged a "Premium Due" fee. Poor customer service and will not be renewing again. Reviewed on: 28th November 2020
