After charging me a £54 'admin' fee for notifying them I got married, Aviva then sent me a renewal quote of £394, when the previous year was £204, despite the fact I have 10 years NCD. No wonder (like many others) I switched, nearly 2/3 of all the reviews on here are the lowest score of 1 and the company announced 1800 job losses last month. Stop taking custom for granted Aviva!!

Buildings insurance premium increased by 35% over 2 years. No change in our circumstances and no claims. Apparently pricing decisions are made by a non-customer facing team, who don't give any transparency into their decisions. Poor guy on the phone told us there's nothing he can tell us or do. Just another example of a firm ripping off a long standing customer (or trying to get rid of them)!

Car drove into front wall causing it to collapse, car drove off but police caught up with them and provided us their insurance details, contacted Aviva and gave all details and was told to get some quotes and send pictures in. Which I did, quotes were around £1100 - £1400. Aviva eventually responded saying that their surveyor said it should have cost £560. So they sent their own approved contractors round to assess the wall, arranged the work to be carried out totalling 5 days!!! For £560 😂 After taking a £150 excess they have made no attempt to recover any of the losses from the car drivers insurer and have told me that it takes too much time recovering such things. So my wall gets damaged and I end up out of pocket!! Typical insurer!!!

Appalling service - my husband has been trying to get his pension from Aviva for the best part of a year. The latest delay is that they want a copy of our bank statement - they already have our account details as the pension has been paid out of that same account!!! Come in Aviva - it's not your money!

After being with Aviva for a few years i was a little dissapointed to find another insurer £350 cheaper & after speaking with Aviva being told I'm better off switching to another provider! No accidents or convictions yet my policy grew quicker than a sun flower in summer!

Dont touch AVIVA . They are absolutely without integrity. We had an arson attack and a building was completely destroyed and they are refusing to pay out. In fact they are looking for a reason to void our insurance cover totally. AVIVA insurance means no insurance. Avoid.

Policy due for renewel next month WITH NO OUTSTANDING PAYMENT 6th june 2019 and i was thinking i will have 4 year no claim bonus becuase i have not had any accident or any convication,i had hit and run accident last year december 2018 so i never claim through my own insurance or third party because i never had registration number plate,so i decided to let my insurance AVIVA know that i had this issue and please make a note in your computer for future reference, but i will not be claiming for any damages,got my renewel a week a go which states that my no claim bonus has been reduced to one year and also my renewel price which was more then last year, so i speak to customer service and asked them why my renewel price has gone up and why i have lost my 4 years no claim bonus and reduced to 1 years, aviva explain sayin that you had a claim last year december 2018, i was shocked when i heared this. So i had to explain the whole situation to aviva again for this accident which i never made a claim.after putin me on hold for 30 minutes they finally agreed that it was our fault and we have made amistake. this aviva company aviva gone against me put a claim in my name with out any reason.so i was upset and made a complaint regarding this issue becuase my premimum has gone up becuase i made a claim,but in reality ther was no claim. So the adviser KELVIN claim department assured me that eveything will be oryt and you will get your no claim bonus reinstated and you will have 4 years no claim bonus and you renewel price will be lower. SO i recieved my no claim bonus and my renewel has gone down only £100 to what the original price was with 1 year no claim bonus, so i said to customer service i will think about the premimun and i will get back to you if i want to renewe my policy or not. TWO DAYS LATER AFTER RESOLVIN THIS ISSUE, I SEEN IN MY BANK ACCOUNT AVIVA HAVE TAKEN MONEY FROM MY BANK ACCOUNT BEHIND MY BACK WITH NO INFORMATION PROVIDING THAT WE WILL TAKE ANY AMOUNT FROM YOUR ACCOUNT SO NOW I ELFT WITH NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO TAKE THIS MATTER FURTHER TO FINANCIAL OMBUDSMAN SERVICES

Bloody where shall i start, the claim analysts are charlatans, they are paid to change your whole story and lyingly will also refer to the phone calls which are supposedly recorded, if you are in a fault claim then forget this company, they wont investigate the claim thoroughly they will label you as a fraud etc and close your claim/policy down without any notice, mind you they will also keep your premiums paid, if you try and clarify yourself the claim analyst will say he dont want to know and hang up on you, the guy i spoke to was a bleeding arrogant/ignorant person, you could tell from his tone and manner that this guy was a circus clown, aviva a MAJOR STAKEHOLDER? Nope!!! aviva a MAJOR STEALER! stealing money from hard working citizens, best insurers are AXA never a trouble, AVIVA Not recommending you to even my enemies, whosoever reads this review please do yourself a massive favour and “DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY AT ALL, PLEASE USE ANOTHER INSURANCE PROVIDER” ZERO RATED, 1 star rating is over generosity!! I WANT MY MONEY

They are the worst financial company I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. They took over Friends Life who were great, so I was stuck with them. All I wanted to do was close an account and have the funds sent to my bank and it took two months of me ringing and ringing them, making complaints while they sat on their hands and did nothing. After I got the money, they rang and apologised and promised they would raise a new complaint because they had ignored my original complaints. Although that was their idea, I have been waiting for an answer from them for four months, yet on their website they claim they will reply in four weeks or tell you why not. I sent a complaint to their Helpdesk which they acknowledged but when I asked for the department dealing with it, they refused to tell me and despite chasing, the department has not replied. My advice would be to steer well clear of them. Indifference is endemic. It would be too much of a coincidence to talk to over a dozen of their people, on different days and always get a lazy one.
