Aviva Auto Insurance Reviews

My spouse was hit by a person coming out of a parking lot onto a street.
Officer deemed it non-reportable ($2000 damage on our vehicle alone), no ticket issued and no police report. Aviva started to pay lost wages to my spouse but then stopped 2 days after she saw their doctor.
She did have a pre-existing neck injury that she had been seeing a pain specialist for and was making good progress with it until the accident. She hasn't been able to work since and her pain specialist continues to recommends that she not return to work. How can a doctor that spends 30 minutes with a person be more qualified that a doctor that has spent almost 2 yrs. treating that person determine what they are capable of doing day to day.
I would stay away from this company. Can't wait for this claim to close so I can change companies.

Renewed my policy without me wanting it. Charged 170 dollars for a few days of insurance on an older pickup and car. Do not deal with these highway robbers. Their price for my two vehicles was 1550 per year. Peace hills gave same plan for 825. Hope Aviva goes broke.

If there was an option for no stars at all I would have put that. I got into an accident in January of 2013, I have sustained neurological/muscular injuries that are permanent (from the accident, that is confirmed by all the specialists I saw) and every time a specialist submits a treatment plan, they refuse!!! On top of the emotional/physical stress from the accident I had to deal with the stress of them refusing everything. They are unreasonable people to deal with, very unprofessional. I would recommend anyone but them.

Someone said that I rubbed the soda of their car pulling in to a parking spot. Tries to claim and injury and pre-existing damage. I took over 15 pictures and when the investigator for aviva may with me he looked at the pictures and said there's no way that damage came from my vehicle. There were no marks on my vehicle which was filthy at the time so if it had made contact it would have shown on my number. Nothing. Investigator told me I shouldn't worry because the evidence is in my favour. Fast forward almost a year. Go to get new insurance and find out that aviva paid this guy out $1800! For a tiny scratch on his door that I DID NOT CAUSE!! Now my premium is DOUBLE. Very upset with aviva and nobody there will give me a straight answer. Despicable. Will avoid these people and will never recommend anyone to them.

Had an accident 3 weeks ago. They pulled the car out from the auto shop where we first brought it after a week (no idea where they brought it) but since then, we never hear from them. Keep on calling the contact person but he's not picking up always on a voicemail. Left so many messages already, even sent emails and until now no reply from him. And they are saying that they have 24/7 CLAIM SERVICE SATISFACTION GUARANTEEE?? HOW?? We are so disappointed!

I have auto insurance with them for more than one year. This year I moved just cross the road. Without any inform they just changed my rate double and charged directly from my bank account. I tried many times to talk to them but they said there is no record of my policy number. If so how could they charged me? I am cancelling it now.

This insurance is pathetic. It might be cheap, but it's not worth a penny. Having to deal with a claim is going to leave me grey haired and stressed out. The claim agents never answer the phone, never call back and never reply to emails. Even the managers are the same. Waiting for adjuster to estimate the damages is another story, I honestly don't know what kind of incompetent people work there.
Again, stay away from Aviva, I know I will. Better to pay more, but have a piece of mind.

The Aviva agent was slow to return calls, kept passing the buck to the adjuster and refused to address our concerns. It has been such a horrible experience for us our insurance agent is never selling policies by this company again. We have never felt more disrespected by a company

Some idiot put earthquake and sewer back up riders on my travel trailer policy. I caught it and my agent took the riders off. Pretty unethical to me.

Horrendous insurance company. The customer support spoke nothing but incomprehensible, nonsensical gibberish which, roughly translated, consisted of excuses for their terrible and illogical behaviour. They also bill me without warning and long before they're supposed to, and on top of that, they constantly find new ways to, again, rip me off. My rate spiked for no reason at all, for starters. Do yourself a favour and avoid Aviva at all costs.
