Process was simple enough and the pricing was keen enough for the cover offered so decided to purchase.

Bit disapointed
11/10/2020
I got a quote with a private reg no. Okay I took the Policy a few days later than expected but assumed the Price would not change. When the Private Plate was taken of the Price went up by nearly 300 pounds Even though I've always Insured my cars through yourselves ? So changing a registration seems to put your Policy up ? Please explain this to me ?

Hi Harvielee. Changing the registration plate should not change the price at all when the policy has been set up. If you changed the registration during the quote phase, this could have pulled though some additional information that was not previously known and re-calculated the quote accordingly. If you wish to contact us about this, please contact us via our social media pages or by emailing us here: https://www.aviva.co.uk/help-and-support/contact-us/email-enquiries/general-enquiries/ Thanks.

My Motor Insurance. I bought a new car and part exchanged the old one. I could not contact anyone to swop cars on my policy so payed for a new policy no problem. Once at home with a computer I tried many ways for two days to try and contact Aviva to cancel the old policy. Their online site 'My Aviva' sends you around in circles with no options of any use. Contact us - goes back the My Aviva, the Chat bot sends you back to My Aviva. The Phone, you go through all the option press 2 press 5 etc to finally get 'go to My Aviva' before it hangs up! and Email even tells you to go to MY Aviva. Although writing comments like this on their Facebook advertising page does get their attention. Read the comments on Aviva's Facebook page 'it's not good'.

Few issues
09/10/2020
There was a very long delay in responding to my claim, I had to chase on four separate occasions via chat to eventually getting a call 2 weeks later. Very disappointed with the value placed on the total loss of my vehicle. I was told that I would receive an email giving a breakdown of the valuation which I am still waiting for.

Not great insurance
09/10/2020
Not great insurance. I gave them 4* review and they didn't post it and asked me to review again. So for that reason you will receive 3*. BTW aviva increases the price every year like all others insurance companies. So they are not better.

Great Price and Cover but some odd restrictions when buying
09/10/2020
I had this cover before but cancelled it (which turned out to be s mistake on my part). When I went to get a new quote as made an impromptu car purchase couldn't get a price as cover can't start for at least 5 days unlike the other policies. This was a bit off to me especially as I had been a customer only a week before. Had to arrange temporary cover for a few days so not great. Would have been nice to have a similar grace period for cancelling insurance as you do when you buy insurance so you can change your mind (put it on hold for a couple of weeks in then cancel) as I've lost NCB (my fault entirely) and had to make temporary arrangements. Otherwise it's great cover and an excellent price. Customer services team are very helpful as far as policy allows them to be. Customer experience score is due to Aviva policy not the people I spoke to at the call center. They did their very best.

Hello, On our classic policies, you can start the cover with immediate affect. Although, with AvivaPlus policies you have to allow a 5 day starting period. My apologies to see you had to purchase temporary cover. Please do reach out to us on social@aviva.com where we can investigate this further for you.
